In case you don’t have access to the YouTube video, here are the words from his opening speech.
“On this Memorial Day (Monday, May 26, 2008), as our nation honors its unbroken line of FALLEN HEROS (like in dead soldiers, Barack?) – and I see many of them in the audience here today (say what?)– our 'sense of patriotism’ is particularly strong . . .”
My sense, Barack, is that you absolutely don't have a clue.
Does this neophyte even know what he is reading? Does he proof read his speech writers' speeches? Worse, does he write his own speeches? Or is he “masterfully” ad libbing or ad flubbing his lines? In any case, this man is not ready for the big time. He needs some serious seasoning . . .
Is he saying that he can see dead people?
ReplyDeleteYes, Matt, that is what Obama seems to be saying. It is a slip up of some sort, I don't think he meant it as stated.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was NewsBusters where I first heard about Obama's gaffe . . .
