    Taking it in context actually makes it worse..... he aslo said earlier in the speach their were paralegals present if anyon feinted.... just so ya know.

    There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me -- because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t -- look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something -- there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. (Applause.)

    If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.


    But he is a uniter, not a divider... and its the repubs who engage in class warfare right.

    Oh and the internet was created for defense,,, not so companies could make $$$$ off of it, but blunders like that go un-noticed when b.o. says it.

    sorry, that's not going to fly by unanswered

    let's revisit history shall we? the messiah was elected with veto proof majorities in congress. slam fucking dunk to do whatever he wanted.

    what did he do?

    he slammed obama care down the throat of america. THAT was his priority.
    he got a 873 billion stimulus that his party crafted. that turned out to be pork.

    he neglected, purposely, to do anything about the economy.

    in 2010, the population of the USA fucking revolted against him with an historic realignment in the house of representatives, thereby putting the brakes to his madness.

    and you fault the people elected to do just that with the responsibilty for the shit economy?

    sorry, you're wrong.

    Well it seems without the help from Republicans the Democrats are destroying this economy all on their own....man if you only had a real point behind all that nonsense.
    I can only imagine how much worse it would be if Republicans let Democrats go with all the bullshit they wanted to do.

    He did tell them they didn't built their businesses. Then he tried to sweeten it. It's like telling someone their a murderer then explain they have a sweet side. It was an idiotic thing to say from a guy that has never owned his own business before. There are far better ways to say what he said but he chose to feed his troops instead.

    This is fairly simple: quote was taken out of context to make it look like it had a totally different meaning. Not sure why you're so confused, or why this somehow is up for debate.

    Also, it does not qualify as "spinning" to simply include the preceding one sentence. Apparently the points you try to make require a very delicate balance in order to work.

    Given your stance on most things political in nature, I call bullshit (yet again) since you have been called out on it, and some of know a bit about that ass hat.
    Play on words for a sceen name makes someone look like a douche? #shitthatsleevesays

    You know, I've had used this name as either a screen name or gamertag for seven years now and this is the first time I've been called a douche for utilizing a clever word play. Damn, I'm gonna have to rethink my screen name now that the dude with the tits for an avatar said it made me look douchey.

    Jesus fuck please work on your sentence structure. I'm not wont to be a grammar-Nazi, but I'm having a genuinely difficult time deciphering what exactly it is you're trying to say. Maybe it's due to the fact that I'm in the middle of a 12 page paper for my poli-sci class and my brain is a bit fried, but that looks like a helluva clusterfuck to me. If I had to guess it seems like you're saying that I'm secretly a Che lover...
