Obama's speech today

No... but you apparently want people to believe that.

 

moen will never answer so I'll ask you...exactly what point was BO trying to make?

 

My interpretation differs from yours... obviously lol... it was about the economy:

"Our success has never just been about survival of the fittest." ...from the quote above, is important to point out. Without it, it would seem your pov is the same as Obama's. With it, it provides a contrast that helps define the context. Removing it alters the paragraphs meaning. Removing the rest of the speech (leaving this paragraph alone) is inapproprite to the context of the speech itself, especially if the sentence highlighted above is also removed. That's why context is important.

 

All I have said is that the OP was completely false. Obama never said his "father" he said his "grandfather" fought in WWII in Patton's Army. THE OP IS JUST FALSE from the start. Nothing else needs to be said.

 

Yeah, but "false" can be admitted to later (if ever), meanwhile the statement is out there and believed by the gullible. Take FOX news... they recently posted a video of the protests against an election in Russia...problem was that video was of protests in Greece. Same for CNN, though they used some post-soccer game insanity. Meanwhile viewers of both were told the videos were of protests in Russia, when they obviously turned out not to be.

 

Does anyone remember when sixty minutes did the special on Afghanistan when the Russians were fighting there and they were praising the Tabiban as freedom fighters. They were caught when, I think it was Mike Wallace, was running for cover saying a fighter bomber was over them when it was later identified as a commerical jet and had to admit they paid a group of Tabiban members to fire on each other as sixty minutes filmed it saying it was a fire fight against Russian Troops. Yellow Journalism does not only exist in the history books.

 

It's funny how the RW'ers here will not acknowledge the fact that the speech was not what they said it was and just keep right on pushing the same line of BS. They are like impregnable when it comes to facts and knowledge. It just bounces right off of them.
I'm sure they'll bring it up again in another thread down the road as if it were true in this thread.

 

To be fair I included both FOX and CNN, and find the mistakes to be rather minor, an easy mistake in a hectic studio. What you wrote was far worse than either of my examples. It was willful. Thanks for bringing it up.
