When Obama said whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower., he was addressing a group from the middle east that contains some that believe the US should be a military superpower and some who do not. If he said I instead of We then the statement would tend to support the premise.The minute I read the comment "whether we like it or not", I went and found the whole quote to see whether he actually meant it the way it was represented. Guess what? Yea, he meant it the way it was represented.
And you would have us believe that the "we" Obama represents is a group of Middle Easterners rather than the United States of America, and further that he used "we" the first time in that sentence to refer to said Middle Easterners, and then the next time - "we get pulled into conflicts" - to refer to Americans, without any sort of clarification as to which we was which? Do you really expect us to torture ourselves trying to find an acceptable interpretation of Obama's words that we not only ignore basic grammar, but we assume that Obama himself, President of the United States and chief diplomat thereof, does not have a grasp of it?
Sorry, but I think Obama is many things: misguided, dangerous, hostile to the American way of life. But stupid and inarticulate are not among those things.
