Några favoriter bland Obama dumheter!!
"As smart and credentialed as he is, Sen. Obama is often an indifferent speaker without a teleprompter. He has large gaps in his knowledge base, and is just as likely to dig in and embrace a policy misstatement as abandon it. ABC reporter Jake Tapper calls him 'a one-man gaffe machine'."
Accuracy is not job one. Obama promises workers at Caterpillar Inc. that his stimulus bill will save their jobs. Uh, not exactly, Caterpillar CEO Jim Owens later clarifies. "The truth is we're going to have more layoffs before we start hiring again," he says, to Obama’s chagrin.
Review gets jettisoned. Obama’s promise of a 48-hour review period for all legislation is tossed by the wayside. During debate over the revised stimulus bill, House Minority Leader John Boehner dramatically throws the 1,100-page document to the ground, charging that not a single member of Congress has had time to read the $787 billion spending measure.
Tooting the wrong horn. Inexplicably, during his first address to a joint session of Congress Obama states: “And I believe the nation that invented the automobile cannot walk away from it.” Gaffe alert: A German invented the automobile.
Gold-medal gaffe. In the first appearance ever by a sitting president on late-night television, Obama cracks wise with host Jay Leno about his poor abilities as a bowler. Obama remarks his bowling is “like Special Olympics, or something,” and soon issues an apology for his insensitive remark.
Bobbing and weaving on 60 Minutes. There’s nothing like a near brush with economic depression to bring a case of the giggles, so 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft dares to ask the president: “Are you punch drunk?” Obama explains he’s just maintaining a sense of “gallows humor” over the meltdown.
Bowing to Big Oil. Obama genuflects so low to Saudi King Abdullah that he just about scrapes his chin. Later, an Obama aide insists: "It wasn't a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he's taller than King Abdullah." Footnote: Abdullah presides over a dictatorship that outlaws Christianity, forbids women the right to vote or drive a car, and flogs gay people.
Teleprompter dependence. In an address to the National Academy of Sciences, Obama introduced members of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. Then he introduced them again, thanks to a teleprompter malfunction. Obama looked at the machine, which he relies on for most public appearances, and asked for help.
