Obama lied about where he met his wife today, In Russia while talking to a classroom full of students. It's all laid out in that link.
Simply a gaffe? Intended lie to suit his surroundings? Or a concocted story about where he met his wife, because of certain acquaintances and
affiliations?
I want to see posters from the barrage of "OMG Glenn Beck LIED" threads relating to that stupid View debacle come in and jump down Obamas throat for
this horrible LIE.
All I'm looking for is a little consistency. Will I get it? Doubtful.
I will just assume the teleprompter broke and he "tried" to think for himself. Lord knows he doesn't have a clue unless it written in bold type on
a screen in front of him.
Maybe he was talking about the next Mrs. Obama that he did meet in class? Now that would be scandalous wouldn't it?
Of all the lies he's told, this one concerns me the least. I think explaining to his wife why he forgot where they met is punishment enough for this
one.
I hear ya JD; at the time of the McCain gaffe, I thought it was a non-issue as well.
I'm trying my damnest to be supportive of the POTUS, given that he's been elected, however I don't mind saying that many of the current policies
scare me, make me afraid for the citizens.
that said, I don't think this particular fib matters much. I think it's fine if anyone makes a big deal of it, because -- as you said -- big deals
were made of "opposition" things that were similar. I just can't get excited about it myself.
I asked my current wife to marry me while I was drunk. I didn't have the heart to tell her I didn't remember proposing to her the next day. So we
went out and bought a ring.
Dude, your signature has got to be one of the best that I have read in a long time. Thanks for the laugh.
On topic:
Obama and Michellles relationship has probably been engineered in some think tank in Chicago. So telling the story of meeting in some secret
conference room doesn't sound too romantic to the masses.
I would have expected a story to the effect of Barry playing the guitar whilst serenading her on the balcony of her sorority house. Under a full moon
of course.
