President Obama May Use Foul Language Sometimes [UPDATE]

Almost everybody falls victim to potty mouth slips on occasion — apparently even President Barack Obama, who reportedly cursed immediately after delivering Barnard College’s commencement address on Monday. We know you’re disappointed, but he’s only human.

News of Obama’s usage of the dirty “s” word came when Huffington Post editor Ethan Klapper tweeted “Obama hot mic just now — ‘I gotta get my sh……’” right after the president allegedly used the full-length version of the obscenity. A few seconds later, the president returned to the podium to grab something, suggesting that he may very well have spewed a profanity. Hearts broke all over the world and God killed a kitten somewhere. Nice going, Barry O.

Fox Nation has muffled audio of the utterance, although I’ve listened to it about ten times and still cannot make out any bad language. And Mary Ann LoFrumento says he never swore to begin with, having tweeted in the aftermath of Klapper’s tweet, “I was sitting close to the President on the platform and he said ‘I gotta get my gift’ referring to his medal of distinction.” Whose word are you going to take? But even if he didn’t swear this time, I wouldn’t hold any future slip-ups against him.
