Comments on: Obama, Did He Mean What He Said? http://justmytruth.wordpress.com/2008/04/14/obama-did-he-mean-what-he-said/ This blog is about how our elected officials are DELIBERATELY DESTROYING the Foundations of this Beautiful Country Wed, 23 Dec 2009 06:43:31 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: justmytruth http://justmytruth.wordpress.com/2008/04/14/obama-did-he-mean-what-he-said/comment-page-1/#comment-580 justmytruth Wed, 16 Apr 2008 03:05:20 +0000 http://justmytruth.wordpress.com/?p=261#comment-580 Hi Jason, Thanks for posting. I think you are making excuses for him, but I did try to be fair. I think Mayhill was being fair too, and followed her conscience. But I have been checking out Obama's interviews since this remark and will be posting on that also. I know Obama fans are serious about their guy, but I'm telling you he is just another greased palm.

I wrote one myself which I would say is a little, okay a lot more bias. However, I did find several people who also were there that gave an account of what happened. Now, I think that it is important to note that if Mayhill Fowler felt troubled with what she heard why didn't she ask anyone if they felt the same way (and according to other accounts they didn't and they say that she distorted the account itself) or get him to clarify what he meant. That is simple enough. I responsible journalist would do that. If you know that what you are going to report is going to open pandora's box why not see if it is worth opening? (cuts himself off in mid-rant) Okay, here are some other factors. One, she didn't give 2,300 dollars. Someone else did. She used their ticket to get into the event. Two, anything said within the confides of this now infamous event was supposed to be off the record. Which means that Obama was more relaxed when speaking, dare I say even tired. It was the fourth event of the day, so couple that with the fact he was talking amongst of individuals he considers supporters/friendly he wasn't on his A game. That was his mistake. But it is understandable. Three, the underlying theme of what he was saying is true. He was saying that in the lack of economic hope, nor the prospects of there being any hope people vote on issues that are dear to them. If you want to get a clear more articulate explanation of what he meant he did an interview of this very same subject with Charlie Rose. The entire interview is insightful. I encourage you to check it out.
