We knew all along Barack Obama was too good to be true -- smart, good-looking, nice jump shot -- but last night he proved his folly. The man hates the mentally challenged.

Oh man. That's awesome. I'd love to go bowling with Obama. And the Special Olympics Bowling Team (if they don't have one, they should).
Seriously, if this is offensive, you've never seen a retard try to bowl.

i have a brother that has down syndrome. having witnessed the physical challenges he has he's worked extremely hard to tried to do his absolute best . he has also participated in the special olympics. all the participants including my brother take great pride not only in their events, but are equally excited for the other athletes. president obama was only making reference to his own personal challenge and pride he feels in his progress which is the spirit of the games! PEOPLE LET IT GO !!!!!
