President Obama was discussing things with a CNBC reporter -- off the record -- when a nearby ABC "employee" picked up the conversation that centered on Kanye West's disruption of the MTV Video Awards on Sunday night.
So, the President, knowing that a room full of "hot" mikes is often lethal, called West "a jackass."
Wonder if the rapper's tunes have been yanked from the Prez's iPod ...
So what's an ABC employee to do? He tweets the comment with the audio all over and it lands at TMZ.com and CNN, too!
