Team Obama: Uh, Um, We're In Trouble
— DrewM

"You didn't do that" is quickly becoming the "I voted for it before I voted against it" of this year's campaign.

As much as the media tried to shield their hero, it's apparently not working.

Team Obama is now in full damage control mode, including a TV ad where Obama tries to explain that taking him at his word is taking him, wait for it......., out of context.

Yeah, if you're making that ad, you are seeing something very scary in your polling and focus groups.

Posted by: Billy Bob, pseudo-intellectual at July 24, 2012 01:07 PM (3ZjAP)

29 He outright lies - 'taking my words out of context' and 'what I actually said was we need to stand behind small businesses'. I watched you make the 'You did not build that'. What you actually said was 'you did not build that'. Then proceeded to talk about how it was government that built it. Maybe he meant standing behind businesses so he can take credit for their work and pick their pockets.

Posted by: Blindside at July 24, 2012 01:07 PM (x7g7t)

30 As I told some turds on the FB that were trying to spin this:

The context is worse than the quote. Pay attention to the parts about how there are lots of people who work hard and lots of smart people (who aren't successful).

It's all a poorly reasoned conclusion that successful business owners must have somehow succeeded through some unfairness. And the unfairness he sees is that they used resources for which we all paid. Which unfairness he means to remedy through additional levies, taxes and fees--make them pay their fair share.

This notion, that if you've ever received any help from any person or entity (even if you paid for it) then you are forever indebted to such, is so wrong--there is no logical endpoint to the mischief, misery and servitude under such a scheme. No good end to the "I helped you once so now and forever you owe me and must do as I say."

I wouldn't tolerate such an attitude from my neighbor merely because he picked up my mail when I was on vacation. Nor should I tolerate such an attitude from my government. But, this is worse. This is the neighbor coming over with the police three years later and saying, "I see you can afford to pay someone to mow your lawn now. Since I picked up your mail three years ago and there was that check in there you really needed, the law here says you now have to pay that guy to mow my lawn too."

37 Apple weighed in with fiscal third-quarter profits that missed analyst views at $9.32 per share on revenue of $35 billion. Wall Street was looking for earnings of $10.36 per share on revenue of $37.22 billion. Shares of the iPhone maker fell 6% in after-hours trading. Yeah but i bet they still have more money than the Treasury. And of course Apple did not make that by itself

(But seriously, what this is is the whiny little rant of the stoned loser in the basement who thinks they are so smart and work so hard and they've cast about for some reason to blame their failure on someone else by deducing that the rich business owner hasn't paid their fair share and that's why they can't succeed.

According to Obama, Americans build their own business to meet a payroll, create jobs, and make our economy run. 

 

No Mr. President, Americans build their own business to create a better life for themselves and their familes.  To make money.  To buy things.  To go on trips. 

 

The other stuff is a byproduct of all that.  People don't build businesses to benefit other people or the country at all.  People build businesses to better themselves.  That is what you don't get.  We benefit because of what the entrepreneurial class does, but they most certainly don't do things for our primary benefit.

Interestingly, BO's statement " ... someone else did that." is explicitly true ...

BO was admitted to Columbia and Harvard (and probably Occidental too) apparently ONLY upon the ... influence ... of others.

 

Bo's work history is ... dismal. $150million of Annenberg funds, used to zero effect by him and Ayres. Clearly, neither of them are competent executives.

 

Each of his elections stinks of "fix", a standard smell in Chicago, from stepping in "Rezko". Even his own books are not his writing, and probably not his "real" life history.

According to the email our cyber experts sent to our teams, they believe a hacker tool Metasploit was used. The hackers had access to our VPN. The automation network and Siemens hardware were attacked and shut down. I only know very little about these cyber issues as I am scientist not a computer expert. There was also some music playing randomly on several of the workstations during the middle of the night with the volume maxed out. I believe it was playing ‘Thunderstruck’ by AC/DC.

This is exactly the attitude that has gotten us into this mess. You can't just look out for yourself and expect to be successful. This is what created the catastrophe on Wall Street, where all of those banks were just trying to make money by taking advantage of minorities. And they wouldn't lend any of their profits or pay their rightful share of taxes, so we went into a recession. If Bush hadn't given them all of those huge tax breaks we would be fine now, but Obama has had to claw out of a big hole dug by all of you bankers and New York financiers.

You take from the government but you don't give, and that is why the tax code has to be revamped, and regulation has to be tightened to prevent unbridled capitalism and a dysfunctional drive for money.

196 145 The ad is pitiful. It sounds like an abusive man saying to his friend/wife, "Those people telling you I am a creep, don't listen to them. You know how I feel. They lie. Don't listen to them". That ad will not do well with women.

Somehow, I get the feeling that Barry is Tina Turner while Michelle is Ike Turner in that relationship.

198 This is exactly the attitude that has gotten us into this mess. You can't just look out for yourself and expect to be successful. This is what created the catastrophe on Wall Street, where all of those banks were just trying to make money by taking advantage of minorities. And they wouldn't lend any of their profits or pay their rightful share of taxes, so we went into a recession. If Bush hadn't given them all of those huge tax breaks we would be fine now, but Obama has had to claw out of a big hole dug by all of you bankers and New York financiers.

You take from the government but you don't give, and that is why the tax code has to be revamped, and regulation has to be tightened to prevent unbridled capitalism and a dysfunctional drive for money.

Another memory (sorry, morons)...I remember as a boy scout a one day 20-mile hike we were preparing for.  Two of the scouts were brothers.  The older one said, "Hey, brother, you carry our lunch half way, and I'll carry it the rest of the way."  Funny thing was, we ate lunch at the half way mark.  The younger brother groused on his brother the remaining 10 miles.

Kinds sounds like the arrangement now...half of us is carrying the load, the other half is mooching, and when all the lunch is gone, we'll all be broke.

Whenever you don't like what you are hearing to plug your ears and run away.

But It was Bush's fault because he started two wars and bankrupted us with the tax cuts for the rich and he spied on Americans and murdered innocents with his drone strikes and bombing raids. He ignored the UN and made up WMD evidence and didn't go after BIn Laden because he needed a reason for his imperialistic wars. Only Obama understood that and he went after BIn Ladin single-handed, and he got him, and you are all so jealous!

The Marxist Agitator or the Opportunistic Lier.

 

Might as well vote for the other guy, who I understand goes by the name of Romney.

Mitt could take a vacation and win this.  But I want him to run and run hard and make this userper go down in history as the biggest loser that ever hit the big time.  I want him to be the punch-line to Presidential jokes two-hundred years from now, when Americans will be saying "Beso mi PendejO'bama blanco grande!

What is this "out of context" crap?  WE KNOW the context - there's nothing to add.  It was all done in public, it's on tape, one has only to watch and see that he said exactly the words he's now indignantly denying.  What "context" is there that would change the meaning?  Was there really a Marxist fanatic standing just off-camera pointing a gun at him and forcing him to say these things?  That would, indeed, be a "context" that would change our understanding.  But that isn't what happened.  Obama was happily confiding in people who made him feel safe, and who he felt sure would support and agree with him.

 

Honestly, the way liberals forever retreat to this "taken out of context" excuse makes me think that to them, "context" really means whatever fantasies are passing through their heads that make them really the dramatic hero in their own daydreams.  It's nothing that anyone outside their own mind could ever experience, hence, we all have to take their word for its existence and interpretation.

288 Wow, typical right-wing H8!

Whenever you don't like what you are hearing to plug your ears and run away.

But It was Bush's fault because he started two wars (one by bombing the towers and faking the planes crash right!?) and bankrupted us with the tax cuts for the rich (which brought increased revenues to the IRS and even though they were only tax cuts for the rich, Obama is making sure the cuts for those who aren't rich don't sunset, wait... what?) and he spied on Americans and murdered innocents with his drone strikes and bombing raids ( that Obama has continued and in some cases increased). He ignored the UN (like Obama) and made up WMD (like the 500 tons of yellow cake uranium that was sent to Canada after the war) evidence and didn't go after BIn Laden because he needed a reason for his imperialistic wars. Only Obama understood that and he went after BIn Ladin single-handed, and he got him, (using the intel gathered by methods he claimed were ineffective and illegal) and you are all so jealous!

Um- yup.

Shoulders!  Count yourself lucky.  Usually he's got a good grip on both ears when he does most businessmen.

Wow. 4 Pinnochios for this ad!

 

"Out of context"? I found the exact quote - in COMPLETE context on whitehouse.com. there are about 4 paragraphs near the end of that speech, where he elaborates  - AT LENGTH - EXACTLY what he meant. It's very clear that he's saying that successful people owe their success to the government help they have recieved over their lifetimes. The paragraph starts with the sentence, "If you were successful, somebody aalong the line [and the examples given are all governmental] gave you some help." The previous one includes, "...if youÂ’ve been successful, you didnÂ’t get there on your own..."

 

Basically, he says it THREE times, and follows up with additional material, besides.

 

Nobody familiar with Obama's background should be surprised at him breaking into stereotypical communist rhetoric. Again, be sure to check out Breitbart's new article where they they interview the author of a new book on Frank Marshall Davis. Seeing all the dots connected about that guy is really eye-opening. If that ever hit the mainstream, that alone would sink Obama - about 3 seconds.
