When reading this by David Frum, just think of broken clocks.
President Obama just slapped in the face one of America’s closest allies in Europe. I’m looking for comment in the American media, and I find … wire stories reporting a spokesman’s apology for the president’s “misstatement”?
The president intended to honor Jan Karski, a Polish-born U.S. citizen, who died in 2000. Karski was a hero of the Polish resistance, the courier who brought to the outside world the irrefutable proof of the Nazi extermination campaign against the Jews of Eastern Europe. But instead of honoring Karski, the president stumbled into the single most offensive thing he could possibly have said on this occasion:
Before one trip across enemy lines, resistance fighters told him that Jews were being murdered on a massive scale, and smuggled him into the Warsaw Ghetto and a Polish death camp to see for himself.

This will go well …
The Obama campaign is opening a new front in its war against GOP rival Mitt Romney, ABC News has learned, with planned attacks to begin this week on Romney’s record as governor of Massachusetts and the campaign promises Democrats say he left unfulfilled.

….because the Obama Admin is so good at clarifying what they do …

He’ll bow to the Saudi King, but disdainfully insults a freedom loving ally in Europe.
hollow kowtowing he knows, mutual respect he knows not.
This is only an accident like uncle Cletus drunkenly sinking his four wheeler in the river is an accident, ie. it is who they are and it is what they do.
Good ol’ Uncle Cletus — or as we’uns call him, Depth Finder.
The question is, is Uncle Cletus an incompetent buffoon who really thinks his green extra-inflated tires will allow his unicorn-methane future-wheeler to ride over water, or has Uncle Cletus been working some insurance scam his whole life?
Not a question for me really.
You ever think Carney wants to answer some of these “Why did Obama say X” questions with “BECAUSE HE’s A GD MORON, THAT’S WHY. I HATE MY JOB!!”
Here’s the full video, it looks like he was using TOTUS to deliver the vignettes and then ad-libbing a sentence or two in some cases. The Jan Karski segment starts around 13:42. It sure looks like the phrase “Polish Death Camps” was in the prepared remarks.
I was just at michellemalkin.com, and on the right hand side of the page, under the heading “Buzzworthy”, this thread is displayed.
Nice to see you guys get some good pub.
Like “father”, like “son”?
Not a question for me really.
Given that Cletus’ “insurance” (ie. SSDI) is funded by the same clowns who finance unicorn fart fueled future wheelers the question is merely a distinction without a difference…
And now a 2nd PW thread is up at MM’ s ‘buzzworthy’.
This keeps up and Jeff might get a gold plated invite to the next blogcon.
