Tacky, tacky, tacky!!

This is an awkward news item…are we hurting for ticker fodder?

EWWWWW What an ugly comment! What a filthy mind!

CNN: are you SURE you are a "respected news organization"???? This is news to you?

Well, that is news. Come on, CNN what do you mean by that!!!!!
This is the first time i have ever asked, but, this is a story?

Slow day at CNN. Is this New????

Obama 08

Good ole CNN. Always hitting the hard stories on Obama…

What a great sense of humor…very natural, not contrived like…well you know WHO I mean.

Slow day at CNN. Is this News????

Obama 08

WHY CNN WHY?

Congratulations CNN. You really are trying to raise the voting IQ of the public with these hard-hitting informative stories.

Is there a contest I'm not aware of? A contest for the most moronic media outlet?

Ha! That would be awkward!

This is a stupid headline CNN… Give me something worth reading, or get out of the news business!
-The not-so-gullible reader

Is this really a story? Must be a slow news day.

Thanks for the story…. must be a pretty slow news day though.

slow news day?

LOL

Love Obama !

Yes. Real Presidential material here. What a pervert.

PERHAPS HE WAS JUST HAPPY TO SEE HER.

slow news day?

And this is a VERY good reason not to vote for him…His phone vibrates only when he's around a woman…THiS MAN iS SO Evil to women.

And if you believe that arguement or have formed an opinion about anyone because of something that simple then YOU TO Evil and probably dumber than that remark.

Slow day huh CNN?!?

And this is news because……..?

Really slow day at CNN

Now that just solved an American problem. Come CNN, give us te real news.

This is news??

I like him for he is a normal guy.

He's so cute

Wow CNN…i'm not one to usually diss one of your blogs but honestly..is this "News"???

And this is news because??????/

Sounds like a slow news day.

*Lol*

Gotta love this guy!

How cute is that. That soundslike something my husband or brothers would say. He's just like us. Gotta love this guy. I just saw on his youtube page how he went to this healthcare workers house and did all the duties she does daily" to walk in her shoes". Her name was Pauline Beck, i think You've got to check it out. He swept , mopped, washed dishes, laundry. Man what a guy!

LOL now thats funny.. At least hes quick on his comments and just another regular kind of guy..

Obama 08

poseing for a picture/ phone starts to vibrate/ staff got a laugh/ is this news?/ or the comic section/ please somebody help me out//

Oh thank god CNN was there to cover that moment!

Now that's news, right? Looks like a gossip headline. pathetic

I'm an Obama supporter however CNN this is over the top….Slow news day?

c'mon, even this is the news? CNN, you'd better change your nane to "SUN"

I am not yet a huge Obama fan but I think that's very funny…. as long as it's not blown out of proportion.

But why are you reporting this CNN? I am loyal CNN follower but sometimes you surprise me, in a bad way!!!

That's not awkward; that's hilarious.

Wish it had been me!

And this is news??? Same as yesterday about his job and hat. Why don't you get critical of him and point out his mistakes and the evil people that have been his friends and comments made by her nastiness Michelle.

You just gotta love this guys since of humour! This is why the polls are narrowing. He's witty and without using late night television to cover up a famous Bosnia mispeak. My hat's off to this guy. I hope he takes the white house. I thought this was quite funny.

Utterly amazing. That's my man!

Bet Hillary will jump on this innocent comment?????????????

Slow news day again CNN?

This qualifies for news about a potential leader of the free world?

Awkward? Just sounds funny to me.

Wolf and CNN you guy are getting sillier every day goes by, why can't you report some thing constractive. This is a silly season we are trying to select our next president here act and report like a grown up wolf.

WHY IS THIS AWKWARD OR NEWSWORTHY?

Ewww.

Good one Barack…

So what??? Does that give him a bad image for saying that??

NO WAYYY!!

It's GOOD that he said that, knowing people nowadays, I wouldn't be surprised if Obama's counterparts said he was trying to hit on her.

Go Obama!

This November, Vote Democratic!!

Thats just too funny, if I was married to his wife I would say the same thing, Mrs. obama looks she take any mess.

Can't wait for Hillbots to blow this out of proportion

What the hell is this story about?

Now thats hilarious!!!

Hah. He handles situations (even awkward ones) openly and with a smile.

That's refreshing.

CNN is against Obama why would Cnn report this mess

I wouldn't mind if Obama got "fresh" with me.

He's respectful!

CNN—HOW IS THIS NEWS?

By the way, why is it the London Times does more vetting of Obama than you do? You might want to look at their Feb. 26th article on Rezko, Obama and Auchi…and the ties to the House Obama bought.

Also, kind of silly of you to have commentators saying that Obama is acting Presidential when he does not comment on the calling to "boycott" the opening ceremonies….ESPECIALLY when he told the Chicago Sun Times yesterday that a boycott of the opening ceremonies should be something the President should consider, but he "prefers to make policy announcements on HIS timetable and not hers" (Referring to Senator Clinton)

The least you could do, is get your stories straight.

OK CNN while this is cute and all and I am an Obama supporter I would rather be reading more about the "further investigations" into the multiple Lies of the Clintons. I know that may be a TALL order so just focus on the ones in the last 2 weeks. That will keep a staff of 20 busy for a while. I may be an old timer at 46 but I remember when reporters followed up on stories and got to the bottom of things not just jumped from story to story without getting to and exposing the truth.

He is so down to earth.
He is human like us.
He is genuine.

Barack Obama 08

That's funny. Let's see someone try to spin this to be negative…..

May I ask, what is that to report??! Where is the news!? Like, how is the campaign going, is it organized, is he still inspiring donations to this campaign after all the media induced fall out from his supposed racial issues? Oh, I forgot, that is only necessary when Hillary needs a boost. Well, let's get on with the more meaningful news.

This is news because ?????????

um, OK
this is news por quaw?

Sure, this probably shouldn't really be news, but it certainly is funny.

great news reporting!! Thanks CNN. wow….

CNN Thank you sooooooo much for sharing the are you happy to see me kinda of joke! Wow! Top breaking story! What about Obama and his friendlines with Bill Ayer, the terrorist. What is going on with Chirs Matthew? I thought he played Hard Ball not soft ball!

With a wife as beautiful and intelligent as Michelle, I think she's got it all covered. The rest are left for wishful thinking and that's all. We love you Obama.

Oh, Barack!

Glad to see a little sense of humor these days!

C'mon CNN..I like Obama and all but you're sweating him hard…do you follow the guy to the can too??

What a gentleman.! Bill Clinton would have loved this moment. I don't think old Bill would have that. He would have let this lady think it was something else. lol

I'M AN OBAMA SUPPORTER BUT THIS IS NOT NEWS. O DON'T NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING HE SAYS OR DOES OR WHEN HE FARTS!!! STICK TO THE ISSUES.

This is news? I guess it's kind of funny, but to have this as a news lead-line is kind of pathetic.

Was she a "Typical White Women"?

How disgusting that you call this news!

If only they had vibrating cell phones when Bill Clinton was president.

And this is on here why?

awwh another cute barrack story. I am sure he wasnt getting fresh there is nothing fresh about especially his ideas

This article ignores the most important point…

Who was calling?

LOL.. you gotta love it! He is such a down to earth guy!

e-gads. i would hope not what would michelle think? i have seen the muscles on that woman and she scares me.

You guys are ridiculous!!!! That's about as worthy of space on this page as information about how my cat barfed up a furball this morning!

…unlike my Democratic predecessor.

And this is news?

The Fresh Prince does not give me a buzz, just the sinking feeling of a high-minded and well-intentioned but inevitable loss of a chance to take the White House from the Bushies. Thanks a lot, Reverend Wright.

That reminds me of what Monica once asked Bill, "Is that a cell phone in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"

So he cracked a joke with members of his staff….why is this news?

Wow, this is journalism at its best. Bravo, CNN, bravo…

Obama acting presidental? What was he thinking!!

he is funny

This is newsworthy?
We are in a war, our economy is in recession, we need universal healthcare and we get THIS?
Come on CNN!

You have to like a guy with a good sense of humor and a quick thinker… Not bad qualities for a leader to have…

Seriously, CNN? You consider this news?

hmm…he got a little carried away with the "i'm not getting fresh" part.

Really? This is news?

Great to wake up to a great afternoon buzz with Obama's phone vibrating in his pants pocket while his anti-american and terrorist affiliations continue to spread the hate!

OH NO Obama's phone can buzz, this is breaking news.

ahh!! A Forshadowing Moment.. all male politicians are perverts.

I can see it now!

Mrs. Obama will not be happy. She will slap him withthose huge hands of hers.

Trying to get more white people to be on stage. I heard that yesterday. I noticed he was doing that, once he got out of the south…

hahaha

I thought it was kind of funny. I love when folks at least have a sense of humor!

Reverse racism at its best. But I know, this candidate is teflon, will not stick.

I know he is supposed to be instilling a little humor into the crowd, but I don't want my President to be too relaxed. I want him/her to perfectly robotic, with a slight personality. I am already stuck with Arnold as my Governator.

That is priceless.

He can act like a human being without pretending to cry.

Go Obama

STOP THE PRESSES!

Obama made a joke!

What…..a presidential candidate who is human…….blasphamy! Note sarchasm!

The guy has a sense of humor and likes to have a little fun once in a while!

All the power to him!

Steve

What an embarssing moment!!..I am an Obama supporter …but really dude that's just painfully AKWARD!!..Hope they don't play this up in any damaging way. AH!..the miseries of campaign life…poor things constantly being stalked.

Yeah right ! You can pose for the Media but not some white guy who only wanted a photo for his wife. What a disgrace. Go on and go see your Grandma, see if you can scare her because you're a black man . America needs to throw this brother in front of the Bus not under.

OK. This is definitely a sign of primary withdrawal. We need it to be the 22nd already so we can have some real news.

That is hillarious. Just one more reason to vote for him.

It wouldn't surprise me a bit that he was "getting fresh". Every day there is some unpleasant, disappointing, and disturbing discovery about this man! If the "captive" for-O-media had chosen to be objective in their coverage, this individual would have been done for a long time ago, and just a vague memory of some momentary yuppie trend.

All this - and a sense of humor too…Come on America, how much do we need this man in the White House? Soooooooooooo Much!!!

Ha ha, who says "getting fresh" anymore?

Hehe, I love a good sense of humor :p

Dont you just hate those awkward moments…LOL

Obama 08

That's funny…lol…But at the same time its sad because had he not said that the media probably have made it to the next big scandal. Cellphone gate…lol

Well, I guess this article really shows that CNN is not really a news network and its failure to report real news.

Nice Presidential remark!!! He needs to go back to Chicago!

Gee, this is so news worthy!

Go Hillary!

It was Baskin Robbins calling him back to work, or perhaps Senator Clinton asking him to help her move her things back into the White House.

This is news?

It must be a slow news day, the Ticker seems to be putting up more of these non-stories these days.

Stop that Obama….. getting fresh with the voters, isn't your money enough? ..LoL

He just wants to make sure nobody mistakes him for Bill Clinton.

Next, Bill Clinton will say, "Ah feel that this conduct is highly inappropriate and not becoming a commander in chief."

Then, the resulting hypocrasy will collapse on itself causing a black hole to swallow the earth and we all perish.

Whta is the point u are trying to make here ?

i think CCN has better things to cover rather than statement where Barack is saying about his some usual daily phone call for something.

Don't erode your good name on the coverage ..

Come on La504. Give us one example instead of making general statements. Every day something does come out about Clinton, however. Sniper fire, Columbia, NAFTA, CanadaGate, the Hospital story, $109 million yet still a "friend of the poor man". Obama hasn't thrown mud about any of it. But if she does manage to steal the nomination, don't think the Republicans will be so nice.

Chryssa April 10th, 2008 12:46 pm ET

"Ha ha, who says "getting fresh" anymore?"

I agree. Maybe he should have said "I am not getting Bill Clintony on you"
hehehe.

Hillary/Sinbad '08 : Experienced from day one (in dodging bullets)

That's the human side that people love to see and hear from a candidate, NOT one that feels like it's being overly strategized, rehearsed and scripted by staffers.

That was funny!

hah this is hilarious… i'm sure Fox News will distort this and try to make Obama out to be some sick guy, but its just another example of Obama's sense of humor and friendly character

Obama/Richardson 08

Yeah I understand Barack….. Bill Clinton would reach for something else. That freak!!!

Ha, Ha, Ha!!

He probably wouldn't know how to unless someone told or probably showed him.

Yawn!!!

Why was it awkward? Sounded like a decent attempt at a joke. C'mon you guys haven't heard anyone say that before?

With everything going on this is something worth mentioning. Wow you must really need to fill media time.

Brad -

Why are YOU so bitter? I mean geezzz…. get a grip.

It's unsettling to see so many people write negative comments about this guy, or use false information to slam him. He's an incredible human being, and you all should wise up.

I don't dislike McCain, either; I think he's been a great leader and has some solid ideals. But he's so interlinked with older politics, and therefore so many extremely conservative politicians will vie for influence.

Obama is great man. Stop being willfully ignorant.

Obama tells the truth.

This statement:

"Every day there is some unpleasant, disappointing, and disturbing discovery about this man!"

is a LIE, however.

You may have "misspoke" and were thinking of HILLARY and her prgnant woman stories (LIE) under fire in Bosnia (LIE) firing Mark Penn (LIE) and 110 million dollars in bribes.

The WORST they can say about Obama is that his minister once said some bad things. That's it? Then they must not "have" anything on him, then…..

Hillary, on the other hand…..

"Getting fresh" is definitely the old way. My grandparents raised me, and they used to say that all the time, so I definitely understand where he got the terminology from. As stressful as this campaign is, its nice to see that he can still be self-deprecating and humorous.

So this gets news but another superdelegate endorsement from PA, former and popular mayor of Pittsburgh, Maslof endorsement of Hillary is not news? Why do endorsements of Obama get front page headline news on the politics section but not news like John Murtha, the strongest opponent for the war in Iraq endorsing Hillary?

Where are you sense of humor my friends?
dammmmmmmmmmmmmmed!

You guys need to go get some and come back.

IT SEEMS OBAMA'S MIND IS CONSTANTLY IN THE GUTTER.

FIRST HE TELLS A CUSTOMER IN A RESTURANT REFERING TO THE POOR MAN'S MEAL THAT "HE WOULD BE A CHEAP DATE"

THEN HE REFERS TO A VIBRATING PHONE AS A SEXUAL INUENDO , I THINK OBAMA NEEDS TO PAY A VISIT TO MICHELLE AND THEY CAN PLAY HIS FAVORITE RAP SONG BY JAY Z

99 PROBLEMS IT IS A SONG THAT REMINDS OBAMA OF MICHELLE APTITUDES.

Obama '08

Clinton deserves to finish the race, however, I do not think it will effect the outcome. We need a change, especially away from the standard washington politics which Clinton is part of.

You may be a Big Spender! But the Engagement is Off..
Remember, November, for the rest of you're life..
The day you were left at the Church….

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS….

Obama said something…

Bill Clinton DID something

This man has tolerated more than most of us can imagine. He has been no darling of the press. His race has been made an issue by the purportedly non-racist Clintons. They HAVEN'T been able to make any scandals stick because this is a man of true character. Shame on La504 for such an ignorant and racist viewpoint.

Hillary stop calling for negative tricks…!!!

ha ha , I like a president with a sense of humour

Presidential candidates are ordinary people too.

Very refreshing

He's not even in office and already the ladies are lining up. Shades of Bill Clinton. At least with McCain we don't have to worry about hanky panky in the Whitehouse.

Now that Republicans voted to get Barak on the Ticket and that Witch of Hillary is almost done, We can go on to win in November.

And all the time you thought that we wanted Hillary? Nope, Obama will do just fine. McCain and THE AMERICAN Patriots will make sure that he is not our next President.

Democats's blew another one that they had in the bag.

LOL, he pulled a Clinton on that chick….

How is that an "awkward moment"? It was Funny.

fesh with hiary

Now, let us talk about "a topic". I read a condensed biography
on Obama last evening on the Internet and it was really interesting.
Obama helped the poor and disadvantaged most of his career.
He is a good man and he is very smart. He could have used his
"earned" degree to be a lawyer but he chose to be in the business
to stand up for the little guy. A GOOD READ FOR ANY ONE who
may have doubts about Obamaman. He don't lie. He don't trash
people. And he cares about the American people. And, Hannity
and Rove, he is very patriotic. Read it Hannity, the Obama basher
Read it Rove, the dispicable man who is very comfortable bashing
anyone that is not a Republican, although he seem to like Hillary
a whole bunch.

Maybe the call was from Wal-Mart asking him to be on the board of directors and bust the unions; oh, wait ……

We need this man in the white house like we need a toothache! Has anyone read his book? Dreams,, this is one messed up guy. kinda sad.

Funny !

This "story" is only enlightening in that it provides a forum for people like poster Brad to spew a kind hatred and ignorance uglier than I ever get to witness in my everyday life. Thanks, Brad, for reminding me that there are people like you in this world. We still have so far to go.

Why are you allowing hateful postings such as "Brad" ( "Yeah right ! You can pose for the Media but not some white guy who only wanted a photo for his wife. What a disgrace. Go on and go see your Grandma, see if you can scare her because you're a black man . America needs to throw this brother in front of the Bus not under.")
on CNN blogs?

Come on people, it wasn’t that funny. You want funny, then let’s elect Jay Leno.

He's definitely "fresh" — a sorely needed breath of fresh air!
Obama nay-sayers need to get over themselves and their issues.

Godspeed, Sen. Obama — all the way to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.!

Brad and LA504:
Are you kidding me? What is wrong with you? This is a bit of fun, positive news and you guys act like it's the end of the world.

There is one way for you two to get instant gratification. If you are so tired of all the positive news, STOP WATCHING IT!.

I'm sure Hillary will have something negative for you soon, don't worry

Hey brad, that white guy was a stalker. Did you see him? "oh oh, pleeeeeeeeeeeze take a picture with me! pleeeeeeeeeze!"

He wanted Obama to get fresh with him. Much as I do. I'm totally gay for Obama. He's clearly the best choice.

But even if he's not in your opinion. Isn't it just fun to have a guy like Obama around. This is so much fun. The system doesn't work and it never will. So let's just elect this guy and have some fun for a change. He's like a party favor. "Hey look world! We're not complete morons after all! Here's our gift to you for acting like such dillweeds for the past eight years and allowing an idiot to make a mockery of our country!" Gobama. It's fun, all the little idioms you can make out of his name. That's enough reason for me to vote for him. Take a hike.

This shows the tight rope these people need to walk, thanks, mostly to Hillary's husband and the times we live in.

It is also good to see a bit of humor injected into what seems like a never-ending primary season…

What's the story. Do we have to report everything that happens. It's so pitiful.

So if Senator Clinton was getting as much airtime on CNN as Obama the lead would not be close at all. When will CNN give her 40 minutes to talk about anything. I watched in horror that speech that obama gave on race and was mortified that he thinks we are all stupid. I was also mortified when i watched a pundit on the Situation Room Say Clintons voters were just unwilling to vote for a black man. How about this…maybe we are just unwilling to vote for an unqualified candidate. How dare Blitzer not call this guy out on his comments. He just stood there, as usual, like a deer caught in headlights.

Hillary 2008

Thats Obama Humor!!!!!!

That's presidential?

Great Job Obama lol Nice damage control

Now only if we could've gotten Bill Clinton to just keep it like that maybe he could've avoided empeachment lol

HA! That's hilarious!

So now WHAT??????? Is this going to be blasted all over the news , radio & papers? With all the problems that is going on now. You have nothing bettter than to report. SHAME ON YOU and the rest of the media.

MAYBE HE IS INTERESTED IN THE WOMAN

MICHELLE OBAMA IS NOT GOOD ANYMORE

Obama was thinking: I am keeping the getting fresh for the White House interns.

THIS IS FUNNY BUT NOT NEWS.
FOR THE ONES WHO WENT EWWW… YOUR GROSS.. PERVERT! ARE YOU LIKE FIVE? GROW UP AND GET A SENSE OF HUMOR. IT'S NOT THE 50′S HERE.
