President Obama is slated to appear on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and during the pre-taped interview, he once again addressed the Secret Service prostitution scandal, saying, a "couple of knuckleheads shouldn't detract from what [the rest of the agents] do," according to the A.P.
Quite the word choice! Obama had otherwise high praise for Secret Service agents, adding "What these guys were thinking, I don’t know. That's why they're not there anymore." When news that an advance team of Secret Service agents had brought several Colombian prostitutes back to their rooms, Obama famously warned that if the allegations were true, he'd be "angry," so now we know the kind of language Angry Obama uses. That's right, it's the kind of language our fathers once resorted to in the moments just before giving us a really bad noogie. Knuckleheads!
