Pres. Obama,best troll ever,calls the GOP "grumpy cats".

Obama Digs In at ‘Gloomy’ Republicans: ‘They’re Like Grumpy Cat’

At the Women’s Leadership Forum today, President Obama told observers that Republicans are “gloomy” and compared his political rivals to a popular internet meme.

“Why is it that Republican politicians are so down on America?” Obama asked. “I mean, they are gloomy. They are like Grumpy Cat” he said, scrunching his face into his best impression of the irritable feline. “Everything is terrible according to them,” he added.

From the comments section,buried between the right wingers losing their minds:

"This is why I worship the ground he saunters on"


God,I'm going to miss that dude.

good stuff to come from the dynamic duo of Clinton and Obama.

Can Obama be VP, maybe?

And would not call anything the man does "trolling"...way beneath his pay grade and class.

The reason why, is because Congress and the Courts don't want a constitutional crisis on their hands just because the Executive drops over dead.

After watching the latest performance of Benghazi Theater yesterday, I think maybe they're more like these guys:



Howler monkeys are the loudest land animals on Earth, capable of bellowing at volumes of 140 decibels, which is on the level of gunshots or firecrackers. Not surprisingly, male howlers frequently use this power to advertise their sexual fitness, catcalling females with their ear-splitting roars.

But in a beautiful twist of expectations, scientists have now found that the louder the monkey’s calls, the smaller the monkey’s balls. A team based out of Cambridge University came to this conclusion by comparing the size of dozens of monkeys’ testes with the hyoid bones located in their voice boxes, which revealed a negative correlation between decibel levels and testicular endowment. The results are published today in the journal Current Biology.
