U.S. President Barack Obama is known for his famously unflappable demeanor. But yesterday the commander-in-chief lost his cool with a reporter when he thought his microphone was turned off.
This is the second time in 6 days that Mr. Obama spoke his mind while his mic was still hot.
Obama, who is biracial, showed his black side following a tense interview with Dallas TV reporter Brad Watson. Mr. Obama unclipped his mic before glaring at the reporter and saying, “Let me finish my answers next time we do an interview, all right?”
Obama might have been ticked off at Watson for asking such leading questions as, “Why do you think you are so unpopular in Texas?”
The president, who is obviously feeling the heat, is under pressure to box out the GOP’s leading frontrunner, Donald Trump, in the 2012 elections.

He did not lose his cool and why did you mention him being biracial – and showing his black side because he didn’t like being bombarded by questions I’m beginning to wonder if you suffer from self hate issues!
FUK TRUMP
“Obama, who is biracial, showed his black side….. ” Really Sandra ???
I understand Obama’s frustration. Ppl been really disrespectful to President Obama.
That ain’t chit…I’m waiting for the day when Obama really lets that southside nigga out.
And he’s not popular with TX because is full of a bunch back-wood country red neck hill-billy Repubs.
I mean TX is a Red state.
And Im with Choco #PHUCK Trump…. if America allows him to even be a candidate Im done.
*goes off topic bc i won’t feed into this bullshyt* what y’all doin?
I don’t blame Mr. President for checking the reporter….it’s called common respect for others… How rude is that???
Do you think the reporter would have interrupted President Bush?
if America allows him to even be a candidate Im done.

Me too..after he is out of office or if he is re-elected, I want someone to ask him about how disrespectful people were to him AND his wife. He is going to make a killing with public speaking and book sales.
I want to hear his honest opinion.
I think he was well within his right to state that request. Don’t ask me if you really aren’t trying to hear the answer.
“Obama, who is biracial, showed his black side following a tense interview with Dallas TV reporter Brad Watson.”
<—– cause we know white folks NEVER lose their cool.
Who says your suffering from self hate??? What…..are they new???
“Obama, who is biracial, showed his black side following a tense interview with Dallas TV reporter Brad Watson.”
how does one show their ‘black side’?

*Blank stare*
So, I guess when the GOP’s frontrunner Donald “I don’t know if I wanna be a celebrity/mogul/billionaire/reality star/tv executive producer or politician” Trump did the EXACT same thing with George Stephanopoulos on GMA on Monday, he was showing HIS BLACK SIDE as well…
Hey party people, @CandiB, @Choco, and @Daisy. Praying for my peeps in N. Carolina especially my parents alma mater, Shaw U. Auntie Sandra you get the side eye for that “black side” comment

NT ways I graduate in 2 weeks so where tha party at?
Sandra, by your definition you show your black side almost erry day. Supporting somebody like, Trump, Palin and those Faux News idiots.
Are they still experiencing tornado’s in NC
Congrats on graduating
“The president, who is obviously feeling the heat, is under pressure to box out the GOP’s leading front runner, Donald Trump, in the 2012 elections.”
If the best the Repubs can do is Donald Trump they don’t stand a chance! That mother f*ucker can’t even run his own businesses/finances! How many times has he filed for bankruptcy?!?!??
Yeah ok…
Southern, just tell me where and I will bring the 40’s and the chitlins.
hey suthern! ooooow u graduating :woot:
Hello All. Hmph, he should have been done told ’em to kiss his black ass, just kiss it, especially the Member who called him a liar on natl tv. NO RESPECT FOR OUR PRESIDENT, NONE! Better yet, if I were him, I’d pack my bags and tell all of America to go to hell! See how they get out this trillion dollar fix without him! (Will Americ give The Donald a try in 2012? GOD help us!) Peace.
Thanks @Choco, not that I heard of- I am in Indiana, but I have been keeping up with what’s going on through my family. Raleigh, Sanford, and other places in those surrounding areas got hit really hard
My gma was telling me that this lady lost all of her children in the tornado that hit.
people only do what you allow them to do….Pres. Obama just put that dude in his place. He didnt lose his cool nor did he forget about the mic…..he just didn’t give a good got damn
@Cariblife sure sug, come on to Indiana. @Candi yes ma’am I will have a master’s degree and no debt
I would vote for Sarah Palin before I vote Donald Trump. Seriously GOP! On to the next.
He should’ve said in his David Chapelle playing Rick James voice
I’m President Obama, b*tch?”
Back to lurking and working.
When it comes down to it knowing that these politicians could care less about us (working class/taxpayers) And I know for sure Donald Trump would not care to save his soul from (Lucifer) Trumps family and his estates have ties with the Elites. so If i had to go all Out im taking 1 for the team #yessir
My gma was telling me that this lady lost all of her children in the tornado that hit.
as well

So sad and devastating to hear I will keep NC in my
Im praying there is no choice to vote for Palin or Trump
Bwahahahahaha! That’s what his azz gets! Almost every interviewer I see interview President Obama (the white ones of course) cuts him off. They never let him finish his statements. This guy is actually not as bad as what I saw Bill O’Reilly do to Obama. That mofo will ask a question, as soon as Obama begins to answer he’ll cut him off and answer the question his da** self then say, “Now let’s move on.”
See that’s why I couldn’t be the prez. I would have put my foot off in an intervewers azz a long time ago.
Team Obama!
i wish with u til u said no debt
well i don’t have debt from grad school but damn undergrad, anywho since u debt free drinks on u
Obama had every right to tell that man to stop interrupting him. I’m sure if it were you or any one else being interviewed and you were constantly being interrupted and over talked you would’ve gotten annoyed as well. That’s rude…
@southern I am from NC my cousins car was destroyed in the tornado in Fayville. I was glad everybody survived the storms. My Aunt went to Shaw. Congrats on your graduation

Must be. I am far from that. But I understand her misdirected frustration.
I see at @Jazzy and @CandiB with these new gravis, I can buy I couple @CandiB but I gotta save my pennies to go to my PhD program in Iowa
Man, I just don’t care™ says:

@ Blu

_________________________________________________________________________
I know that, you know that hell…all of America knows that but he couldn’t say it b/c he’s the prez. Oh but trust me…he wanted to. He wanted to say, “You know the damn answer Brad! Don’t ask me no clown azz shyt like that! You know them white boys in Texas can’t stand a brotha on the come up!” Instead of saying that he just said, “I love Texas.”
Sandra Mae keeps talking about him showing his “black side”. Him saying that might have made me agree but his “white side” obviously gave the answer. LOL

lol @CandiB I’m in education so unless I go to a huge university and write some books I’ll do pretty good, but I won’t be making it rain on the hoes. I do a lot of research on HBCUs because I am concerned for the advocacy of these institutions. The only reason I’m getting a PhD is so when I start advocating no one can give me the side eye cause I have the research to back up what I’m saying.
@Suthern
Way to go
I don’t see anything wrong with what President Obama said!
@Southern I wish I got my Masters w/o any debt that is a BLESSING. I have fam in Raliegh and Durham as well.
@Candi I wish I was making close to 6 figures with my Master’s
@ suthern
i can only imagine how excited you are cause Lawd knows i count the days hours and minutes till my day.
congrats on graduating.
OH PLEASE! I’m so over the Obama bashing! I guess you think Trump’s bankruptcy filing parasite, sideswept bang having, pasty self will do a better job! Prolly so!
Obama was still really calm while checking the reporter. I don’t see what the problem is
Who says your suffering from self hate??? What…..are they new???

Nope been here for 5 plus years.
That was a stab at sarcasm since that question is asked like 20 different times a week
I would be offended if this particular blog post was original, but it is not… nor are the sentiments conveyed by said blogger. How the heck does one whisper “Let me finish my answers next time we do an interview, all right?” become losing control? IJS…..(check out the raw footage on wfaa.com)
If Donald (can’t stay out of bankruptcy or married for that matter) Trump is the GOP Frontrunner for President…Then I think it is probably time to hide your kids, hide your wives and hide your husbands….y’all know the rest!!!!!
I’m in Texas and he is only considered unpopular because this is a red state. The actual people of this state-at least not the white ones-seem to have nothing but respect for him. Of course if they went out and did a poll you better believe it will be negative. I for one support and love my President

Reading the main headline I thought Barry had dropped a motherfugger or two but his response was beyond tame and I am sure he did it with his trademark smile.
I am pissed with our government completely. All of them are just sitting back and let these big companies drain the hell out of us. There is no reason gas should be this damn high. Especially since a majority of our oil comes through Canada. There are no problems with supply and demand…actually there is a surplus.
Please rent “The Inside Job” its a must see! Every last one of them were in on this shit including Obama
I Love Obama but I have to agree with Ty this gas thing is ridiculous. Our gas is high because tensions in the middle east “may” become high.
I swear if I weren’t so lazy I’d take the bus.
Sandra, this post was misleading. President Obama is a man and is THE POTUS, he showed great restraint and respect in his request. I wish you would follow his lead and do the same for your “SPIN” I really didn’t appreciate the Bi-Racial black side comment. That was low, even for you. severely disappointed.
