Remember how the MSM and lefties had a field day with that?
Sarah Palin slammed him in a facebook posting a while back.
Countries like Europe?
Halt the rise of privacy?
FBI's first 100 days?
His speech right after the Fort Hood shooting. Gives shout out to a Medal of Honor winner before mentioniong the death of troops under him as CinC.
Oops.
(or "inaccuracies") by the Misspoken in Chief from yesterday's presser: (H/T Daily Caller)
- The corporate jet tax break he kept referring to was enacted in his Stimulus plan.
- “What I have done — and this is unprecedented, by the way, no administration’s done this before — is I’ve said to each agency, don’t just look at current regulations or don’t just look at future regulations, regulations that we’re proposing, let’s go backwards and look at regulations that are already on the books, and if they don’t make sense, let’s get rid of them,” Obama said. [Every President since Jimmy Carter has order the exact same thing.]
- “Every single observer who’s not an elected official, who’s not a politician, says we can’t reduce our deficit in the scale and scope that we need to without having a balanced approach that looks at everything,” Obama said. Questioned in a congressional hearing whether Congress could tackle deficits merely with spending cuts, Bernanke said, “of course.” Here’s a video.
- “Right now, Congress can advance a set of trade agreements that would allow American businesses to sell more of their goods and services to countries in Asia and South America -– agreements that would support tens of thousands of American jobs while helping those adversely affected by trade. That’s pending before Congress right now,” Obama said. [All of these trade agreements were negotiated by GWB and Senate Democrats have refused to address them since.]
- And then there's the scolding for preparing to leave town for the July 4th holiday given his own propensity to remain in DC and tackle the tough problems the country is facing. Yeah, like 76 rounds of golf since 2009 and 29 fundraisers since he announced his 2012 candidacy.
Hey, it's only fair! We know darn well the MSM won't be balanced in stating Obama's goofs. Thanks for this PSA. ;)
Sorry, don't have the links handy-
His "above my pay grade" answer regarding "When does human life begin?" at Rick Warren's question and answer session in 2008.
When he went to Ireland and drank a Guiness, I heard that it was non-alcoholic.
I don't know if this counts as a gaffe, but I like to reference his "This is the day the oceans stopped rising" comment.
I've been merrily amending my list and those couple of instances of idiot blather certainly count. Remember, it's gaffes AND goofs (and other assorted stupidity).
Great catches!
The Vet has a nice list here: http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/geoffrey-dickens/2011/06/24/big-three-n... I think only one or two of those already appear on your list.
Obama takes 17 minutes and 2,500 words to answer one question.
He took the saying "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with BS" a bit to far.
Obama is so smart he's boomeranged back around stupid.
Obama wears Michelle's jeans and throws baseball like a 5 year old.
It's in there now (last one).
I knew I was missing so many good ones...thanks to all of the NB'ers for helping to complete the list.
Blonde, well played.
Keep them coming.
Of course, the Snarky Description should be included as well, or we'll have a Forum CapFest (which is fine, come to think of it!).
This is what I'm talking about.
Oh yeah, I e-mailed my list to Warner Todd Houston, and he linked it to his Blog, Publius Forum....which is a great site in case any of you are not familiar with it.
Cheerio, Obama bashers! :)
Too bad it will never see the light of day in "the media".
Because Obama is THE FLAKE! A flake in all of a flake's infinite variations....nuanced, and outright odd as well.

You You you can put lip stick on a pig .... Obama Boy
Of course she's the lip stick....
That is to funny!! And we're supposed to believe this guy is some kind of genius?! LOL
Preferably a really smart-ass one.
Anyone?
"No Barack! We are not playing Mary Poppins again, dammit! [mutters] Sh+t, where's my boob belt?"
Michelle...call Biden and get him to bring me a hacksaw. Tell him I've found another screw-up those idiot Bushes left for me to fix.
Like Obama knows what a hacksaw is.

I may just have to edit that one.
Another one just came to me.

How about the always utilitarian "Stupid is as stupid does"?
I did my list in MS Word....and of course (!!!!) it wouldn't copy the hyper links over.
So. I. had. To. Do. Each. One. Separately.
And I missed that one, shall add back....Thanks!
You got them all....My feeling right now is that they could run a hot steaming pile of S**T against Zero, and the pile would win!!
I didn't see the dead medal of honor recipient.. He also threw the opening day pitch like a girl..
Maybe I should have just stuck to the original description instead of trying (?) to be clever. Oh well.
The fallen soldiers.....some of whom I see in the audience today....

Okay you guys, calling your attention to my mid-afternoon's work...compiling a list to rival that of NB's all-time list record-holder, PopTech....regarding (ta dum)....Obama's gaffes.
I'm at 43 and counting...what did I miss?
Links gratefully accepted...I'm putting this on my blog as well.
All you are missing is Obama backing Argentina (over the UK) in the dispute over the Falklands. http://en.mercopress.com/2011/06/09/uk-press-reacts-to-obama-s-support-f...
And being on the wrong side in Honduras, too.
It was a pretty amazing little exercise. I'd find one video...which would have "related videos". Then the posters' links I mentioned, as I searched those strings of words, I'd get articles "Obama's Gaffes" and then I'd follow those. It was pretty amazing.
But I thought it might be useful to have everything all together like Pop Tech (and you) used to put up for everyone to use as a reference when bashing the libtrolls.
Speaking of which, BK sent me a nice little "newly hatched NB Troll" picture. So here's the link for that as well...everyone feel free to use.
Was this one on your list?
I know they *claim* he was looking at the steps, but if it had been a Republican in this photo . . .

Sarkozy is obviously checkin' it out, and his wife is the anti-first-wookie.
There should be a full moon in that picture, goes right along with the bat-shiite stupidity of them. Bunch of moon bats.
