as with any type of quote when taken out of context and posted by itself with no reference you can make anyone look or sound like an idiot. i for one thought it was a little refreshing to hear the president stumble with his words. made me think it was more his own thoughts rather than the chief whitehouse pr guy typing up his speeches and just memorizing them.
my only hope is that one day, people will realize that electing anyone based on political affiliation is the stupidest thing to do. one should elect the right person for the job not vote for "their" candidate because they call themselves a republican or democrat. i have voted for each based on what i learned about the candidates past performance not his/her lies they talk during the election. they all lie, don't kid yourself
one last thought, don't watch cnn or fox news and think you know the whole story. both agencies as well a AP and the washington post only report what they want based on direction and political affiliation of their board members and owners. only partial truths to all of those agencies are reported to create controversy so people will tune in so they get paid.

Exactly. Have you ever heard Obama stumble and hmmm & haw when his teleprompter goes out? What a dork. He snubs our allies, apologizes to our sworn enemies, sends delegates to the funerals of hoodlums (to secure the ethnic vote) while refusing to acknowledge the death of General Greene, and only says a few non-meaning sentences about the recent beheadings of our journalists. A shining example, for sure.

Oh no, these have NOTHING to do with being out of context. Dubya was just a complete moron and probably the worst president in the history of the United States, period.

OMG!!! Pete, what are you smoking? Pass it around, please. Bush was FAR from perfect, but our current vacationer-in-chief has put us into more debt than ALL previous presidents COMBINED, and our grandchildren will spend their entire lives trying to pay it off. Carter was by far our worst president until now, but Obama has beat him hands down.

Vacationer in chief? Dubya took some 450 vacation days compared to Obama's roughly 150 to date. Debt? Yes, Obama has increased our debt by a lot, but dubya beat him by a few percent. I'm out of town without a pc but will happily post supporting evidence from unbiased sources next week.
