Conan O'Brien uncovers President Obama's sexist agenda
by Kona Gallagher, posted Oct 27th 2009 5:33PM
"Girls need to shop for clothes. Period." Words of wisdom from our president. The crack editing staff at The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien has created an amazing clip of President Obama putting women in their place. They took an interview Obama recently gave to NBC news and edited it so it's just a full minute filled with random, nonsensical sexist remarks.
In addition to the quote I mentioned above, he alludes to a nefarious-sounding "strategy" that the men have in place, while a graphic of female politicians, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, hovers ominously. The clip is amazingly well-edited, to the point that if you didn't know what it was, you would swear it was real. In fact, I give it a day before the clip, or at least the quotes, start making the media rounds as fact. Ah, behold the power of late night.

The Daily Show tackles the Sotomayor confirmation hearing

I'm not sure if you've been watching the Sonia Sotomayor hearings this week, but if you haven't been near a TV during the day or would just rather see a summary of what's been going on than watch hours of judicial talk, you have The Daily Show.
This is funny whether you support Sotomayor or not. Jon Stewart dumps on both sides of the aisle (did Chuck Schumer actually start to cry yesterday?), and it also includes some bonus Al Franken footage!
