Obama jokes during comments on Munich shooting

President Barack Obama made the White House press corps giggle while speaking about the deadly Munich attack, shifting the tragic topic to his personal feelings about his daughters, RT reports.

Obama was speaking to law enforcement agents at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building as news from Germany got to the White House.

“We don’t know exactly what’s happening there, but obviously our hearts go out to those who may have been injured,” he told reporters.

That’s when Obama began to ramble about children growing and “leaving their dad,” obviously referring to his older daughter, Malia.

“I'm sorry. I'm getting a little too personal. Getting a little too personal there,” Obama cut himself short, drawing the audience’s laughter.

He then collected himself, going back to serious issues and praising the “men and women in uniform every single day, who are under some of the most adverse circumstances imaginable at times, making sure to keep us safe,” RT quoted him as saying.
