(This is hilarious!!) Parody: Obama’s anger translator on the ’47 percent’ video

President Barack Obama and his anger translator Luther reacted Thursday to video of Mitt Romney describing nearly half of Americans as government-dependent victims who pay no incomes taxes.

“You know, you probably wouldn’t have liked the White House anyway,” Luther said. “There’s no elevators for your cars, man. They’re gonna have to take the stairs or whatever.”

Obama and his anger translator also addressed Romney’s assertion that he wouldn’t bother trying to convince the “47 percent” of freeloaders to vote for him.

Obama said it was the duty of the president to represent all Americans.

Luther also mocked Romney for saying this would be easier if he were born Latino.

“Forty-seven percent of the country called and they said you get to be president — of jack shit,” Luther added.
