    I never enjoyed the sandbagging aspects in T_J's debates.

    If you've got a business, you didn't build the roads and bridges to which that statement referred.

    You have to look at the six words before the ones you chose to highlight, please go back to 5th grade reading class, you're doing it wrong.

    So in your bizarro world, "that" refers to bridges and roads? I realize he has to tailor his speech to the crowd, but is Obama's grammar truly that bad? We all know that it is not.

    If he was referring to bridges and roads he would have said "all that" or "those". And when you layer in the rest of the speech for context, it's obvious to all that he meant exactly what he said. It's an incredible insult to hard working Americans everywhere.

    You are welcome to disparage Obama's grammar all you like, "those" would certainly have been a more appropriate word in that sentence. However, pretending that he was talking about the business, as you are, makes you...

    A. A liar
    B. A chump who believes liars
    C. A person with worse reading comprehension than my second grade son, who was able to accurately interpret those sentences

    Which is it?

    HO HO HO

    Well now you are really and truly struggling to defend the indefensible. You are chalking it up to an error in grammar. Despite the context of the rest of the speech. Despite Elizabeth Warren's speech. Despite Obama's actions with regard to both government (expand) and the private sector (berate and obstruct). Despite HIS ACTUAL WORDS. Unreal.

    Obama could light a man on fire and then urinate on him and what you would see is a man spontaneously combusting and Obama trying to save his life by cooling him down by any means possible. Just out of curiosity, when you see a green light, do you stop your car?

    I want this thread to live in infamy -- in order to memorialize this truly unbelievable and irrational set of logic being used by andymoon. Shall we call it THE MOCKERY OF MOON? Yes. Let it be written, let it be done.

    I still can't believe that some people actually think that Obama was referring to one's business when he said "you didn't build that."

    Wow it's mind boggling, we have some really dumb people in America unfortunately.

    Bingo.

    One of poor andy's most epic shamings ever. (kinda feel sorry for his thought process, given how it's suspended from logic and reason, due to his bias)

    They don't. Their posts are about advocacy, like lawyers, they bring up every possible piece of crap they can think of, framing it as an issue as seriously as they can. They don't have to believe the crap, they just act like you do.

    TJ and Basso are

    Oops!

    Even FOX is now saying it's a lie!

    – Fox’s Bob Beckel exploded during The Five’s discussion about Obama’s out-of-context “you didn’t build that” quote, saying, “Once again, we’ve put something on the air that’s a flat out lie.”

    It's telling that basso, tallanvor, Romney and the like need to use a lie to base their attacks on the President. It just proves they are morally bankrupt and have nothing of substance to offer as an alternative.

    Telling

    But not surprising

    Ho Ho ho!

    If what you say is true...then why...why...why???? Why do the repulsive-icans keep having to edit out the words "ROADS AND BRIDGES". I mean, if his exact words are so clear, why not use ALL OF HIS EXACT WORDS???

    Ho Ho Ho! HO HO HO!

    Your argument has fallen apart using such simple logic. How sad. I wonder how long it will take you to come up with a rationale that it's ok to edit out his words despite your argument that his exact words are what you are going by. Hmmmm, what excuse will you use? To save precious air-time right? Ho ho Ho. I'm looking forward to your rebuttal, or lack of one.

    Your bluff be done. Back to the Mexican Industrialists you go! You can't beat me. Go pick on the others, but when you are ready for a real debate, Ho ho ho, i'll be here ready to whoop your narcissistic butt.
