What should disturb you is what a bunch of unhinged hypocrites your party has become random thoughts Send a noteboard - 02/09/2012 02:38:34 PM
You and the left jumped all over the Romney comment about corporations being people. Didn’t matter then that what he was saying is that corporations are made up of people and what affects them the affect real people. Same thing with “I like to fire people comment”. All is fair in love and politics but you really can’t except to get much respect when you gleefully take the other guys words out context then go and get the Mother Of All Butt Hurts because the republican is not giving the proper nuance to Obama saying entrepreneurs really can’t take all the credit for building their companies.

I think the real problem is that being liberal your gut instinct when someone sees something different than you do is to assume that their view was based on ignorance. But the ignorance in the case is the assumptions that right doesn’t understand what Obama was trying to say. We understand what he was trying to say and it is true that there are things the government does that make it possible for business to thrive but what the left is missing is that the way he said is where the problem is. The arrogance and dismissive attitude Obama has for the private sector really shines through when you put his comments in context and really don’t help him at all.

It is amazing how well every sentence but your last covers the "We [not I] built this" view - 01/09/2012 03:29:27 PM 565 Views
let’s put it back in context - 01/09/2012 05:23:01 PM 659 Views
Politifact already did. - 01/09/2012 05:53:23 PM 749 Views
+1 - nicely said. The "built it" comment drives the left crazy, since they know..... - 01/09/2012 04:25:52 PM 463 Views
Nope, it drives us crazy because it's an out-of-context fragment quote - 01/09/2012 07:01:24 PM 458 Views
they all know what he said and context doesn't change it *NM* - 01/09/2012 07:11:01 PM 269 Views

They're both acting normal (for politicians) - 02/09/2012 12:12:31 AM 587 Views
I disagree; they both did something downright bizarre (again, for politicians; see link.) - 02/09/2012 12:20:32 AM 530 Views

Only if you want a Senate majority. - 02/09/2012 07:39:23 PM 691 Views
Exactly, the context doesn't help. Libs believe government knows all and makes all possible. - 01/09/2012 08:25:51 PM 428 Views
Sigh... what words a quote contains is not a matter of "POV." - 01/09/2012 09:01:17 PM 670 Views
Seriously. Like, I'm not debating policy here- I am saying that those are the literal words. *NM* - 01/09/2012 11:53:39 PM 261 Views
I do not understand how that can be debated, yet it keeps happening. - 02/09/2012 12:03:44 AM 487 Views
