Obama Has Lost It

First: When did Obama have it?

Second: Is making a joke that is not historically accurate (but based on a common misconception) actually a gaffe?
 
Technically, I guess it isn't a gaffe. After further review, I'd have to say it's just plain laziness and ignorance for not making sure he was quoting a former President.

What's funny is that people are attacking the "gaffe" part of it rather than (correctly) pointing out that the joke itself makes Obama look like a petty, partisan bitch (even if it was true, he'd look like a petty partisan bitch).

I've got a totally different take on it, myself. This is the douchebag who calls on others to be "above the petty partisan sniping". His hypocrisy is far worse than the accuracy of the quote.
 
Obviously, someone on his staff gave him something to show republicans are backwards. Obviously, Obama was too lazy to check it out for himself. That's why he continually reveals himself to be lazy and ignorant.

Seriously, which one of the tards running for the republicans is guaranteed to beat him? Romney might have a shot, but the other goofballs could end up assuring an Obama victory.

Well nothing is guaranteed, of course. I don't see unemployment or the economy turning around before November. At least, nothing that would ensure Obama's re-election. Things are worse than they are telling us.

Oh, for sure. Bush is much dumber than Obama. Wouldn't you agree? That's why Bush revealed his college grades and Obama hasn't. Yup, yup.
 
Here they go again...

When the liberals have nothing, they trot out the old..."but Bush did it toooo...".

The Republicans have gone down the same route that the Democrats did in 2004. They put forth such crappy candidates that they took a surefire victory and managed to turn it into a probable defeat.

In my mind, any one of them would be better for the country than the guy who wants to burden our citizens with more taxes, more costs and greater misery...just to promote his ideas of what HE thinks our country should be like.
