You are correct, I think it was in the intermission of his latest minstrel show.

ph,
Just one point. You certainly have a right to disagree with the President and you have a right to dislike him.
However, using the phrase "minstrel show" is really quite offensive and I think you really should apologize for it.

At least minstrel shows were funny. The current comical cheerleaders for despotic change have gone beyond the funny stage ... now they are espousing more lunacy than ever.

Minstrael Show is quite accurate, Obama has learned well from Kerry just how to be on every side of every issue.
The President is amazing, He can change sides of an issue in mid sentence and never lose his passion.

a minstrel is a troubadour-usually depicted playing a lute-nothing offensive in that, unless you put that naughty word that rhymes with "digger", in front of the word "minstrel", and give him a banjo.

Minstrel shows were funny as long as you weren't black. A lot of people thought tossing dwarfs was funny, too.

Now tossing black dwarfs, that has got to be hilarious.

You people need to lighten (no racial pun intended) up.

Well I see the bigots and racists are out in full force this morning! Of course they would be doing the shuffle themselves if some African American Marine or Paratrooper wered in front of them!

So tell me Mister Wilson et.al. are you for all the troops or just those of the "right" persuasion?
