DO YOU THINK THAT OBAMA WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR THE "YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT..." REMARK?

damnyoumaggot 2012/07/27 15:06:07
Yes. It belongs to Obama.
No.No.No.No.No.

Sometimes it seems President's are remembered by the quotes they made in speeches. Ronald Reagan said "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!".
H.W. Bush...."Read my lips: No New Taxes."
Bill Clinton.. "I tried marijuana once. I did not inhale."
W. Bush...."I've abandoned free market principles to save the free market system."
And not to be outdone, Nixon's "I'm not a crook".

Then along came a Obama and what did he say? " If you've got a business, you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen. "

Will the annals of History label President Obama the "you didn't build that President"? Only time will tell....

    Of course leaders' quotes are remembered but he will not be remembered FOR that remark. Presidential legacies are much more than than mere soundbites and excerpts from speeches

    You do understand that the question is specifically about REMARKs presidents have made...right?

    What are you talking about? CSPAN obviously didn't edit the video and I never said they did. I'm saying that in the proper context of what he was actually saying the phrase you didn't build that is hardly controversial.

    Except the "public" as you put isn't forming an opinion on the full quote that you provided. They are forming their opinions on the edited quote provided by the Romney campaign and Fox News.

    No matter how hard you try, the facts are the facts. He condescendingly said that sucessful folks weren't so, because they worked harder or were smarter. They didn't build that...Somebody else did that. There's no positive way to spin it. Why don't you give it a rest....

    No, this 'incident' will be remembered as another time when Romney and his people manipulated the President's comments, edited them so they appeared to be an attack on business owners. If Romney has to lie his way to the White House, he doesn't belong there. Obama 2012

    "what Obama really meant to say was..." blah blah blah, so tiring right?
    What he says and what he does are completely different, except when he is speaking off the cuff, revealing his true nature. These remarks (gaffes) from the last 4 years tell a different story, like "the private sector is fine", with 5 million jobs less than .

    DO you know what Obama has done by executive order to become the most powerful POTUS ever? I doubt it, most don't. Try reading his dictates and see his own actions.

    He has classified ALL veterans care records & VA center inspection reports and his own lifetime records and all records of the arms dealing Fast & Furious mass murder program (along with contemptous DOJ Eric Holder), his hit list authority & he has taken control of industry, energy, education, media, private property etc etc
    Everyone should be alarmed!

    To read his congress negating, govt agency growing, pay to play policies and his rule of MORE multiple "military actions" see this page to view the E.O.'s, summaries and the original pdf's.

    Unless he actually comes up with a better one in the next 100 days. From his 'spread the wealth around' to 'they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion' he's uttered enough infamy to fill a book.

    His remarks regarding business reflect his collectivist nature, as if America were some socialistic compound like Jim Jones's. He'd rather no one own anthing and government control of everything, including what we eat, where we spend our money and how our businesses operate.
    I'll nominate another comment Obama (made to Joe the Plumber), "spread the wealth"
    Obama s joe the plumber spread the wealth

    He'll be remembered for quite a few things, Like these firsts:
    Obama s economic record

    and the worst recession recovery in recent history:
    Obama s economic record
    Obama s economic record

    and the biggest decline in our economy

    America does not need this guy, vote him out so we can get Obamacare repealed and get back to the road to prosperity.
