Obama: “Is it intermission yet? When’s intermission? I need a cigarette. I mean I really need a cigarette.”

Check the quick shot of the President toward the end of this clip. He’s working that Nicorette gum like it’s trying to get away.

“Hey, I thought you said we were coming to see Kabuki. What’s with the music and the costumes? When do the fat guys strip down to their thongs and start wrestling? I’m the President, damn it, and I want to see the fat guys wrestle. Man, if this is going to last much longer, I’m really going to need a smoke.”

Fox News reports what the President was doing when he looked so in need of a ciggie:

It wasn’t quite a Kennedy Center Honors Award show, but the entertainment in Yokohama, Japan Saturday evening made President Obama smile as Japanese performers of traditional Kabuki theater put on a show for world leaders in town for the APEC summit.

Kabuki is highly stylized Japanese singing and dancing which has been a tradition since the 17th century.

What? No fat guys in thongs?

  • Kabuki is an ancient art form. Is it my favorite? No. But as PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES he should be respectful of the countries offerings to their visitors. Did he make any attempt to understand the play? Was that a translation earpieice? Did he ask anyone on the way in anything about what he was about to experience, what should he particularly watch for or take note of? He is a classless twit. He needs to learn MANNERS at least befor he pisses someone off so badly they waant to kill us all. Above all, be gracious!
