This was a trick quiz. All of the correct answers are the same
person.



Each of these quotes are directly from President Barack
Obama.



And now you know why he brings his teleprompter with him
everywhere he goes ...even when talking to a 6th grade class.

And some members of the media continue to insist he is "The
smartest man ever elected to the Presidency".

Yeah Right.
 
That would probably trick some liberals. :lol:

But the Conservatives? Not so much...........

They know better.
 
Much fun can be had reading gaffes by not only those from the above list of choices, but many other politicians as well.

You miss the point, Silver. The anti-Obama crowd (common sense people) aren't the group that is starry-eyed proclaiming the brilliance of their leader as the Obama-zombies are. That is the point - the man is not brilliant.
 
Once again they don't defend obama, they have to attack someone else. If obama was worth anything you would defend him..and you CAN"T

Well Silver, by golly, I think you may have some potential as a fair and balanced news caster. Thanks for the posting. GWBush's are absolutely hilarious :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: as are all of them,have to stay fair and balanced here on Rnet you know.

Well Steve, by golly, I think you may have some potential as a fair and balanced news caster. Thanks for the posting these last gems are absolutely hilarious as are all of them,have to stay fair and balanced here on Rnet you know.
We realize that a couple of the liberal posters on here only post part of the the things they find, leaving out KEY parts of information, and posting a link, that is laughable,, am not going to point fingers, but a liberal speaking ex lawman comes to mind as being a great example of feeding mis information if he can, but most are aware of it now so his creditably goes lower every time he posts :D
 
Sorry if I offended anyone. The point of my post was not to attack or defend anyone. It was simply that Soaps choices on the quiz made me curious as to what kinds of gaffes they had made in the past, and I enjoy a good faux pas regardless of from whom it is from.
On a side note, I really noticed how poorly B.O articulated away from the teleprompter on his first visit to Canada. Steven Harper made Obama appear almost childish by comparison.
