Barack Obama Meet This Cognitively Impaired 300 Bowler!

On last evening's Leno Barack Obama made a lame joke attempt referencing Special Olympics by way of explaining his ineptness at bowling. Cognitively impaired Special Olympics bowler Kolan McConiughey would like to take on Obama in the alley! He'll tear him up! By the way, isn't Obama cognitively disabled when he is without his Teleprompter?

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - The top bowler for the Special Olympics looks forward to meeting President Barack Obama in an alley.

"He bowled a 129. I bowl a 300. I could beat that score easily," Michigan's Kolan McConiughey (KO-lahn Mc-KAHNA-he) told The Associated Press in an interview Friday.

The athletic-minded president made an offhand remark Thursday on "The Tonight Show" comparing his weak bowling to "the Special Olympics or something." He quickly apologized and told the Special Olympics chairman he wants to have some of its athletes visit the White House to bowl or play basketball.

McConiughey, who is mentally disabled, is just the bowler for the job. He's bowled five perfect games since 2005.

The 35-year-old McConiughey has been bowling since he was 8 or 9. His advice for Obama? Practice every day.
