President Obama Rips Jay leno at White House Correspondents Dinner (VIDEO)

President Barack Obama was on a roll last night at the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

After he managed to get in a few jokes about his approval rating and his country of birth, Obama then took a double swipe at Tonight Show host Jay Leno.

First, he joked about how quickly Leno’s ratings fell in his prime time slot, then he said he was glad he was speaking BEFORE Leno, because we all know what happens to folks who follow Jay.

Et tu, Mr. President. Still, it was pretty funny stuff.

Check out the video below (the Leno barbs come at about the 0:35 mark).
