Us Weekly recently sent news editor Lara Cohen out on the campaign trail with Barack Obama. While some journalists would ask about Obama's health care plans or the pride of being a black man with real White House potential, young Cohen wanted to get a little deeper, like Obama's bum:
LC: So, boxers or briefs?BO: I don't answer those humiliating questions. But whichever one it is, I look good in 'em!
The interview will now be referred to as Obama's "diva moment".

Imagine McCain saying that!
Obama is incredibly arrogant.
McCain wears saggy, yellow stained depends. Hillary wears spanx.
I am tired of Obama's ever growing arrogant ego.
Bush III.
Absolutely hilarious
I don't even live in the US but I'm rooting for OB, by far the best bet for the rest of the world, Cliton just comes across as Yuky! slimy! arrogant, like 'it's my turn' as for Mc'Cain better start barricading your doors.
As for nether wear I thinks he's a boxers man..
It's pretty funny how this campaign brings out the silly in people. Obama's response to a ridiculous question was to parody it: What, really, is the point of a "boxers-or-briefs" question than to spur an image of an underwear-clad candidate? The humorless among us pounce on Obama's snarky response as a sign of arrogance, when in fact it was an appropriately humorous response quite in the spirit of a preposterous, irrelevant, insulting (and personally invasive) question.
What would you prefer him to say? If he'd left it at "I won't answer," he'd likely have gotten grief for lacking a sense of humor about himself. And god help us if anyone ever asks Hillary what sort of foundation garments she sports–the shrieks of misogyny and unfairness would be deafening.
(Of course, he COULD have taken the Hillary-tax-return approach, and promised to tell us all about his underwear after he's safely nominated….)
This campaign has unfortunately not brought out the kind of humor of which these folg [[
Strangely, this campaign has not brought about the kind of humor that we see here.
It indicates ,not arrogance, but just a healthy sense of realiy that Obama is aware that he's a better than average looking man. However the humor is refreshing, and that is clearly the spirit of the jest.
That Hillary would have trouble pulling off the same joke is just related to the luck of the circumstances. i can't see her in either boxers or briefs!
'Bama is better than average looking? People must be pretty ugly if he's better than average. He's got purple lips and is a scrawny, weird looking stick figure.
Stick figure: Pretty much like a model. Regular, intelligent features. What we have now looks like a bonafid chimp.
You can have McCain: fat with pick lips & red face!.
Go for it!
In fact, one of his draw backs is that he does look too good: probably one of the reasons he's likened to JFK. Just too good. By the time Hillary gets 4years into office she could easily gain 60 lbs with her build : A stumpy mama mia. Good thing she is slathered with makeup"; for all we know her whole face is purple.
