"When I go home, Michelle, Malia and Sasha give me a hard time," President Obama told Stephen Colbert on Monday night. "There are no trumpets, and they tease me mercilessly."
When Obama wasn't defending his economic record, his latest immigration action and his Keystone XL oil pipeline decision on Monday's The Colbert Report, the president was actually quite humorous -- and a little deprecating.
He said his daughters mock his big ears, he leaves his socks on the floor. Sitting behind Stephen Colbert's desk, he said, also gives him a greater sense of power.
Between takes during the taping, the president and Colbert pleasantly conversed.
It was Obama's third appearance on the show, his second as president. Colbert will take over for David Letterman on CBS' Late Show next year.
