"The Situation" Thanks the President for Exempting Him from the Tanning Tax

Breaking News! "Jersey Shore" ... um ... guy .... thanks the President for exempting him, Snooki and J-WOWW from the tanning booth tax. "That was pretty nice."

Asked if he was surprised that the President knew who he was, he simply said, "doesn't everyone."

While I hate to think that the President is even aware of Jersey Shore, at least he's poking fun at it!

Half of Hollywood was invited to the White House Correspondents� Association dinner in D.C. Saturday on Saturday, and in his speech Obama made several pop culture references.

"The following individuals will be excluded from the indoor tanning tax within this bill: Snooki, J-WOWW, the Situation and House minority leader John Boehner," he quipped.

5. I liked that he linked Boehner to the tools starring in the Jersey Shore

That was the best part of the joke for me!
