I don't think he had a clue. His reaction shows that. He look mortified. He was just doing what he always does: reading.
i think he knew about the joke but then right after it came out of his mouth, he regretted it. he even finished the joke and you can tell he was thinking, "what the hell am i doing?"
that was............really...
........ fucking............awkwa

I don't blame Obama on this one though. no one thought things through on this one. Obama needs to tell whoever let this happen that they need to find another job.
the problem is that his cabinet is composed of a bunch of liberal asshats who don't care if they come across as idiotic as long as they spoonfeed their liberal lemmings what they want to hear.
AND THIS JOKE WAS MEANT TO SOUND EXACTLY LIKE IT SOUNDED. YOU'RE AN IDIOT IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE.
