I know I'm a sucker for surrealism, but I think this 13-second video is absolutely hilarious, and I don't especially care who made it, or what on earth they might have had in mind.
Via Jim Geraghty, who has some observations about authenticity and toddlerhood which I'll childishly disregard, not so much because I want to agree or disagree, but because my inner toddler is feeling inauthentic lately.
But it was already too late, for the damage had been done. Glenn Reynolds and countless other bloggers had already agreed with what the president is having trouble un-saying. As Jules Crittenden said, it's still
not too late for O to grow a set, come out and firmly, presidentially, declare, "I meant it. For the record. Kanye West is a jackass."
Firmly and presidentially? Growing a set? Now we're drifting into the realm of the fantastic.
(As I say, I'm a sucker for surrealism.)
