Obama's speech to college students 7/2/13, Do not celebrate 4th of July

I just read what the OP posted, didn't look at the actual article. Honestly wouldn't have surprised me if it was true.

The sad part is that I am surprised that it is satire as opposed to being surprised that's true.

Ya I missed that, oh well can't win them all. As for the part about making Obama look bad, hate to rain on your parade but he does a great job of that himself.

Admit it man, you were forced to watch MSNBC for an hour.

Why use made up words when Obama's words and actions will suffice?

Me too, as it's so closely modeled after what he has said already (e.g. "You didn't build that", "I believe in spreading the wealth around" and "We can't turn to the ways of the past") that it's almost entirely indistinguishable from it. It's almost a moot point to make the distinction when you know it's what he really thinks.

OK, here's our homework assignment: Watch him say lots of stuff exactly like this in a speech tomorrow. Take notes and see how much of what he does say mirrors this. Anyone up for this? (If you can actually stand to watch and listen to that scumbag for more than 10 seconds at a time--I for one usually cannot.)

that was his point....

Sadly, I would not have been surprised if he said this.

Wow, thanks for the neg rep, my bad I didn't see the bottom of the article as I stated. Seems to me you may want to find something important to do with yourself.

[schr8er2000]

I was not defending Obama. I was stating that trying to discredit him with fiction was ineffective and foolish.

So I guess you are against all POLITICAL SATIRE then.... guess you dont read to many papers, view political cartoons or watch tv then.... Oh well, to each their own

As I said I didn't see the satire on bottom yet there seems to be some butt hurt from the obama supporters in the thread, oh well get folks, get over it.
