Obama has sons??
« on: May 26, 2012, 02:08:34 PM »
Speaking of "words not to use", is President Obama losing it, or trying to fill in some missing pieces of his biography?

Quote
No, we're not discussing his college and law school grades, SAT scores, or place of birth. We are discussing his offspring, or in Joan Walsh's word, his spawn. Terry Jeffrey of CNS News:

At the Iowa State Fair Grounds on Thursday, Obama said: “We don’t need another political fight about ending a woman’s right to choose, or getting rid of Planned Parenthood or taking away affordable birth control. We don’t need that. I want women to control their own health choices, just like I want my daughters to have the same economic opportunities as my sons. We’re not turning back the clock. We’re not going back there.”

Both the transcript of the Iowa speech distributed by the White House and a video of it posted by the Des Moines Register indicated that Obama mistakenly said “my sons.”

.... despite his slip about "my sons," the president was speaking with the help of a teleprompter.

On Wednesday at the Fox Theatre in Redwood City, Calif., Obama made the same mistaken reference to “my sons.”

“We don’t need another political fight about ending a woman’s right to choose, or getting rid of Planned Parenthood, or taking away access to affordable birth control,” Obama said, according to the White House transcript of his speech. “I want women to control their own health care choices, just like I want my daughters to have the same opportunities as my sons. We’re not rolling back the clock.”

In other recent speeches, Obama delivered virtually the same line as he did at the Iowa State Fair Grounds and at the Fox Theatre but said "your sons" instead of "my sons."

In Denver on Wednesday, for example, according to the White House transcript, Obama said at a campaign event at the Hyatt Regency: "We certainly don’t need another political fight about ending a woman’s right to choose, or get rid of Planned Parenthood, or taking away affordable birth control. I want women to control their own health choices, just like I want my daughters to have the same opportunities as your sons."

Obama also delivered the line that way on May 10 at a campaign event in Seattle.

Earlier this month, at a campaign event at the Rubin Museum of Art in New York City, Obama made a similarly mistaken reference to “my sons” while defending of the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which expanded the statute of limitations for filing lawsuits alleging discrimination in employment compensation.

“The first bill I signed, the Lilly Ledbetter Act--a simple proposition--equal pay for equal work. I don’t want my daughters treated differently than my sons,” Obama said, according to the White House transcript of that speech.

Obama made yet another similar rhetorical slip back on Jan. 12, while speaking at a campaign event at a private residence in Chicago, Ill. At that event, according to the White House transcript, he also mistakenly mentioned “my sons” in the context of talking about the Lily Ledbetter law.

“The first bill I signed--a bill that said that we’re going to have equal pay for equal work because I want my daughters treated the same way as my sons,” said Obama. “We got that done.”

Either he considers all of our children "his", he's got sons whose existence is also "sealed", or he's losing his fcking mind.

Notwithstanding his losing his mind (a very real possibility) it is quite likely he fathered a few more kiddos while his mind was pumped full of chemicals and booze.

I could believe it. It's easier to believe than the birth certificate thing.

Maybe he means "my" as in we're all "his" children. It flows forth naturally for megalomaniacs and self-appointed demi-gods to call people sons and daughters as metaphoric class indicators. Priests, dictators, or emperors seeking to passive-aggressively indicate affinity with commoners use the term "my child" when speaking to someone of lesser station.

It doesn't even occur to him that such an utterance seems out of place and bizarre to most people because he doesn't have sons. In his mind, he's relating to our impulse to be taken care of like his children.

The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Jim Jones had his followers refer to him as Dad.  And they started the whole Kool-Aid meme.  That's one common denominator with leftist movements of all sorts, they always have messianic cults built around personalities.  They're always looking for "the one", they invest so much in a personality, pin all their hopes on them.  It would be almost comical if they weren't harming the rest of us with their doe-eyed idolatry.

He is also one of those educrats I call educated morons.  They have all of the book learning in the world but absolutely zero common sense or true life experience.  I guess that would make him an idiot moron. ::cool::

Right off hand I can't remember who said it, but there is a great line: "Some things are so asinine only a highly educated person could possibly believe them."

Obama is a legend in his own mind......and Chris Matthews. He is on the pedestal...we are his children. You know he believes the whole halo thing. This is not rhetorical slips of the tongue, he wants to be treated as a god.
