President Obama got in a plenty of jokes at his own during the 2015 White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, April 25. But the highlight of his speech was when Keegan-Michael Key of "Key & Peele" joined him onstage as Luther, the anger translator who "translated" the president's mild-mannered speech into an angry rant.

Obama said, "I often joke about tensions between me and the press, but honestly what they say doesn't bother me... I'm a mellow sort of guy. And that's why I invited Luther, my anger translator, to join me here tonight." Luther then entered the stage and told the audience, "Hold on to your lily white butts."

Obama continued, "In our fast changing world, traditions like the White House Correspondents' Dinner are important." Luther then translated it, saying, "I mean really what is this dinner? And why am I required to go to it? Jeb Bush, do you really want to do this?"

When talking about campaign fundraising, Obama said, "Hillary will have to raise huge sums of money too." Luther then said with a wild look in his eyes, "Oh yeah. She goin' get that money. She goin' get all the money. Khaleesi is coming to Westeros."

As Obama began talking about climate change, he seemed ready to go without the translation. "Every serious scientists says we need act. The Pentagon says it's a national security risk. Miami floods on a sunny day and instead of doing anything about it, we've got elected officials throwing snowballs in the Senate," he said, referring to Republican Sen. Jim Inhoffe's stunt on the Senate floor aimed at disproving global warming.

Luther said, "O.K. I think I got it bro." Obama added, "It is crazy. What about our kids, what kind of stupid short-sighted, irresponsible, bull...," before being cut-off by Luther. "All due respect, sir, you don't need an anger translator! You need counseling! I'm out of here, man," Luther said before leaving the stage.
