WASHINGTON (AP) — A presidential election just getting into gear provided President Barack Obama plenty of new material to work with on the night he describes as Washington celebrating itself.
"It's amazing how time flies," Obama told those attending the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents' Association on Saturday night. "Soon, the first presidential contest will take place, and I for one cannot wait to see who the Koch brothers pick. It's exciting."
Obama added: "Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker ... who will finally get that red rose?"
On the Democratic side, Obama observed that Hillary Rodham Clinton kicked things off by going unrecognized to Chipotle. Meanwhile, he said, former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley went completely unrecognized at an O'Malley campaign event.
Taking a playful poke at himself and at Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is considering a bid, Obama said: "Apparently, some folks want to see a pot-smoking socialist in the White House. We could get a third Obama term after all."
"Just this week Michele Bachmann actually predicted that I would bring about the biblical end of days. Now, that's a legacy," he said. "That's big. I mean, Lincoln, Washington, they didn't do that."
"Today, thanks to Obamacare, you no longer have to worry about losing your insurance, if you lose your job," he said. "You're welcome, Senate Democrats."
The featured entertainer of the night, Cecily Strong from "Saturday Night Live," got some big laughs with some tough subjects. For example, she observed that the Secret Service is the one law enforcement agency that could get in trouble if a black man gets shot.
"Your hair is so white now," she told the president, "it can talk back to police."there were awards listed in the article but for me and i would like to think many others i DVR'D just so i can see the Commander n Chief of dinner comedy theater take it to the republicans at my leisure the rest of this month. he really shows us him in spite of the graying and burden of being the first Black Pres. sorry Billy boy, and all he's had to endure from he racist sect of American and still came out victoriously and still with the ability to laugh and make us join in. if there is any doubt about it check out the link below.
it is a welcome event to see both sides come together and laugh instead of lies and finger pointing it does the country good too bad we can't have one every week. btw i love that last joke especially since what has been happening is not funny. knowing when to laugh and be serious it can go a long way to peace of mind everyone has to vent but when, where, and how can make all the difference this is and was such a place.
