Except.....he hasn't raised taxes. You lose.
Except, he wants to. Look at any ad: "ask the wealthy to pay more" or "their fair share." Obamacare: major tax hike.

What part of "You didn't build that." are we missing?
He didn't say you didn't build them, those or any other plural.
He said "That" a singular word and he sure in hell was talking about the bussiness and not infrastructure. It is what he truly believes. He had to back track when there was a bigger backlash then he ever anticipated.
"The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together."
But instead the rabid right want to take a slight gramatical misstep and turn it into a campaign slogan. Looks like it worked on a certain small segment.
Slight misstep my ass. And there are plenty of people that built there own businesses without any help. And why does Obama keep getting passes on his missteps yet Romney gets drilled for days on end?

He was absolutely correct in what he said - and he DID mention the "individual" in that paragraph. No business could succeed without the public works that all of our taxes built.
And no public works could exist without the people that work to fund it. Let's not act like the government gets it's money off trees in the white house backyard. Government = public, therefore, government is for people, all the people, successful or not. Well, that's the theory anyway.
The message i got from the speech: "Lots of people work hard but some people are more successful than others and that's not fair considering everyone lives in America." It supports the theory that he's a big tax and spend wealth redistributionist.

Built their businesses without any help? Oh....you mean they personally built the roads that either get their product out or their customers in? They built the power grid that powers their business? They built the Internet that is so valuable to modern business? Water and sewage? How about trash removal? I guess they built that too....all on their own. All of those things that I mentioned HELPS businesses.....immeasurably.

Sorry.....just wants to go back to what it was before the tax cuts. Can your brain wrap around that concept? Or ......are you like a puppy who thinks that tail he chases is a new development?
Rush is obviously slipping
In the last election he was singing "Barack the Magic Negro" and calling him Halfrican
Is he not Half African?

Another lie. He only wants to let the tax cuts on the top bracket expire. He is targeting successful people for a special tax hike just for them.
He is a class warrior.

You need to get off your high horse and stop telling people what to think. Different people interpret things differently.

What is there to "interpret"? You either understand what is being said, or you don't. My god, did any of you take college english classes? There is only one context for what was said. It is not open to "interpretation". Jesus H Christ... You people will spin anything.
If the economy was so terrific under the tax system we had under Clinton, why isn't Obama calling for ALL OF US to return to those rates?
Hmmm...
Christ, he has you dumbshits so brainwashed you think only the rich got Bush Tax Cuts.

The context of Obama's speech was even worse than the one line gaffe.

Just Rush playing to his base
He knows what buttons to push

So? So does Rachel Maddow. So does Ed Schultz, So does Lawrence O'Donnell. So does Chris Matthews. So does Andrea Mitchell. So does Martin Bashir. So does Al Sharpton. Shall I go on? Is there a point in there that you want to make?

And everyone has equal access to those. Think about it like a math equation: you've got your constants and your variables. Constants for everyone in America: public infrastructure. The variables in this equation are what leads to individual success: things like intelligence, determination, work ethic and just plain luck.
