President Barack Obama taught everyone a little lesson about racist Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy during the 2014 White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Obama was touting the success of Olympic snowboarder Jamie Anderson, who was in attendance at the dinner, saying he hadn't "seen someone pull a 180 that fast until Rand Paul disinvited that Nevada rancher from this dinner."

"As a general rule, things don't end well if the sentence starts with, 'Let me tell you something about the Negro,'" Obama said. "You don't really need to know the rest of it, just a tip for you."

1. Totally!

[Nay]

2. What a great comment -- I laughed my ass off. I've got my bones to

pick with Obama, but he sure has great comebacks to these RW racist assholes!

[vkkv]

3. Bravo!

GoBama ! !

[nxylas]

4. Just like if you see an article on a wingnut site with the headline...

...."Who are the real racists?", you don't really need to read the article to know the answer.

5. !!!!!!

good one!!

[TBF]

6. POTUS has handled the entire situation really well

so far. Cliven is determined to be a martyr and they've not given him that.

[trusty elf]

7. Craven Bundy is a civil rights hero

just like Rosa Parks!

9. lol - love it! nt

[aquart]

26. Spectacular.

[Solly Mack]

8. I laughed myself silly at that comment.

Great way to handle it.

[hopemountain]

10. the president's chuckles

[Blanks]

13. Those were good too...

As well as his Kenya comments.

Fox News is gonna miss him - they'll have a more difficult time convincing people Hillary is from Kenya.

[hopemountain]

14. and "orange is the new black"

and the pic of hannity, guilliani & o'reilley with a bare chested putin….

[Blanks]

15. The entire speech was good...

I think it was the best speech I've ever seen him give. He was relaxed, funny and seemed very likable and human.

[byronius]

11. Classic Obama. Guy's got great wit.

[northoftheborder]

12. Obama was funnier than the comedian, in my opinion.

[DirkGently]

16. His jokes generally kick ass.

And few arguments are so devastating as a joke that lands directly on target.

[obxhead]

17. We learned a more important lesson though

(while I won't pin this specifically on Obama)

If you owe fines or back taxes you simply need a small armed militia to be able to ignore them completely.

[mikekohr]

18. It ain't over. The Feds are biding their time. The hammer will drop

Timing is everything. The President has it. Bundy and his goons will do time in good time. Patience grasshopper.

[kelliekat44]

25. Notice how "restraint" is the order from the WH...no Ruby Ridge or Waco here. Imagine if the Feds

had gone in guns blazing... We and they all know that the Fed could take them out in a matter of minutes. What is happening now is classic...turning on themselves...show to be anti-American, anti-government, moochers, liars and racists and bigots. Since they don't recognize the Federal government, I think stopping all Federal payments and benefits of any kind to everyone out there at the checkpoint would be ok with a lot of folks.

19. LOLZ

[Cha]

20. Obama schools Cliven Bundy! mahalo babiylonsistah!

[Sarah Ibarruri]

21. I love this! nt

[freshwest]

22. Thanks, Babylonsister! I LOVE that graphic and our Prez. Cool under fire, always.

That is just perfect...

[Zipgun]

24. My favorite part of his speech

Was this part. My second was the comment about Fox also having success with a host between to potted plants with the picture of Fox and Friends. Both classic, witty and very on point.

[tofuandbeer]

27. "Hello Fox News."

That was great!

[heaven05]

28. got some good

monday moaning chuckles from this.
