GOP Pulls Plug on POTUS Portrayer

Obama impersonator and comic Reggie Brown is seen here in POTUS mode leaving CNN studios for NBC HQ. Over the weekend, his short set at the Republican Leadership Conference was made shorter when his mic was abruptly turned off as his remarks turned racist. Brown says he was told it was because he'd run over his allotted time. "I wouldn't touch anything that I don't think the president would feel comfortable with or hasn't done himself. He's someone that I respect, and I want to make him happy, and I want him to appreciate what I'm doing." (via HuffPo; photo: Bauer Griffin)
