You know it is amazing, and I am a little biased because I listen to Mike on Sirius and I am a fan. I love his impressions of Bush, McCain, Obama...an­d I think he does the best Obama I have heard yet. That being said, it is hilarious/­unbelievab­le how a lot of the huff post users embraced and LOVED this exact same stuff that Lee and Mike did with McCain, and now that it's Obama people are like...NO NO!!! Don't let the GOP hear this or, it doesn't sound like Obama, oh no it's a fake! You guys are tricking us you jerks! How dare you! The bottom line: the left may be smarter than the right, but its skin is much thinner. God Bless America.

Sounded just like Obama. Had me fooled for a second. Girls gone wild, very funny. Nice job guys. He he he!

One Objection ...

President Obama NEVER says " You Know ... "

[Debi Scott]

the heck he doesn't...­.YA KNOW!! ...especia­lly did it on the campaign trail.. of course he doesn't say that when he reads from the teleprompter!

[yuvid1]

It may be a joke but you all know that some right-wing political hack (radio and TV) will pick it up and use it to point out how immoral and what a terrible person Obama is. The conservative base is so gullible they believe anything they are fed by these propagandists.

Jeez, the fake is terrible - saying "sump'n" - "ya know" at every other word - the whole accent and jolting rhythm ! BUT - OK, those who have heard Obama speak at any length will know immediatel­y...see, the trouble is, there are plenty knuckle draggers who do NOT listen to Obama. And from some posts here, seems some of them are fooled. So I think yes, this kind of attempted deceit should be stomped on.
Nothing wrong with an imitation of someone saying ridiculous things - as long as it is clear it is an imitation.

[Jyl Ion]

A *ridiculous* waste of time.

[IssuesInFocus]

A BIG jokE! Somebody please grow up!

[Debi Scott]

i think this guy is fab. great that he can make fun of ALL in equal fashion.

[willia]

Are you kidding me, anyone that has listened to President Obama for any length knows that's not him.

Guys - this is comedy.... Did you not notice the names attached to this page:

It's gotta be that stupid blackberry that he's using that's being sabotaged. I knew it would get hacked and bad things would get leaked. We can control the Mexican gov't and their military but if the drug lords ever decide to infiltrate our soil, we're in serious trouble. And for Pete's sake Obama, get rid of that stupid blackberry. You're not 18 anymore or living in a college dorm room, you're the leader of the free world. And btw, way to take action and make the stock market go back up. You're right on target. Don't let the political hacks discourage you from that second stimulus package, we need it in a bad way. We all know that FDR didn't spend enough to end the depression but at least you're not afraid to take serious action.

Are you for real

[Wiseronenow]

And, you probably think the show, "24" is real too.

[Debi Scott]

alumtrix..­. this recording is a comedy routine. You can't really think it's a real recordig from the BlackBerry

[HowSwedeItIs]

Is that the "24 CTU-Phone" I hear starting at the 54th sec.? Barack, you better pick that up... Jack is at Gitmo... This get's a 'D' rating, all they are doing is mocking Obama's SLIGHT stuttering. GWB was/is easier.

LOL Come on guys. At least find someone who can impersonate the President well. I was tipped off after three syllables. The voice is off, the mannerism is wrong, and it's just plain not that funny.

Now, the fake French President bit with Sarah Palin...TH­AT was genius, and mucho hilarious.

Here is an idea, how about faking a phone debate between President Obama and Rush Limbough.

I bet you can get that without even trying. Rush will be a real good sport, too. It will certainly improve his ratings. LOL

[patrickgarret]

Yah someone tapped the WHITE HOUSE PHONE LINE. God people... Does this Nation THINK anymore?

[patrickgarret]

God people are gullable in this Country. Such an obvious fake LOL
That's not Obama's voice at all. LOL Yet reading some of these comments no wonder we BLINDLY re-elected Bush.

[Aplace4everyone]

witt-e-e-e-e-e! NOT

lame-o style of humor that was tired even before the 20th century ticked over.

if this passes for entertainment it shows simply how desperate we are not to face up to reality and the fact that we're still being taken for a ride by those dead-head dinosaurs who blew up the banks.

[Unclesamantha]

A) I think that all of this back and forth/debate over whether or not this is real or fake proves what a great job these guys do in doing Obama's voice.

Did you guys see/hear this one last week?

Good God, people it's a joke. I'm gobsmacked by the number of people who took it seriously for even a second. Obama saying that we shouldn't call Mexico a failed state, but should instead give it an "A for effort"?

Is our educational system really this bad, that people can no longer discern satire when they hear it? I mean, just check out the bio:

"Weingartner is known for his ability to slip into any role, channeling the personas of the famous, the infamous and the imaginary with pitch-perfect skill."
