I've got no idea whether it was a gaffe, Freudian slip or whatever.

There is a pause there... but Obama often pauses in the middle of his speeches.

Though I do think he believes it.

Of course... the truth is... a LOT of what he talks about in that speech... government didn't actually build either... and in a lot of cases... actually tends to make worse. (Schools for example.)

It also ignores the fact that the US government spends on a LOT more then infrastructure. 

If it didn't we'd likely be running budget surpluses.
