| kazadoom said: All of you make the very point I was trying to make. I DO NOT LIKE BUSH OR MCCAIN OR OBAMA, that was not the point of this. The point is that there is a double standard. If this were a republican, he would be trashed, but since it is a democrat, he gets a free pass from the press and all of you. Bush has made some idiotic quotes, I never denied that he did, nor was I trying to justify his with Obama's. I merely was pointing out the double standard here in america where one guy can do something dumb and get killed over it and another guy who is a liberal democrat can do something dumb and get a total pass on it. I have no bitterness, and either one of the idiots running in this election would and will continue to ruin this country, I was merely making a point about the way Obama speaks and yet no one in the media seems to care. |
The argument most people are making is that saying "uh" a lot doesn't make you stupid. Meanwhile, Bush has demonstrated repeatedly that he has a horrible misunderstanding of the English language: he uses the wrong words, he makes up words, he uses double negatives that don't exist, he conjugates verbs incorrectly, he switches from singular to plural, and he puts food ON families. Everybody is in agreement that Obama is a great speaker, and saying "uh" doesn't stop that.
Besides, Bill Clinton had the greatest line of all, when he said he "felt like a pickle stepping into history." But then that just raises the argument: was that a mistake or the most brilliant quote of all time?
