The Most Ignorant Line in the History of Man

[TooTall]

"You didn't build that". How could Obama have known that those few words would set off a major epidemic of Obama Derangement Syndrome? To bad the disease isn't lethal.

The first outbreak was when Obama was joking about the number of states in the union. But the stupid Obama Derangement Syndrome people have no ******* sense of humor. So they took that comment out of context and have stumbled with it ever since.

Till this comment was made.

You who suffer from ODS, seek help. Or you are gonna waste your lives being stupid.

He wasn't joking and no one took it out of context. I suggest you get some help for being stupid.

Origins: On the campaign trail in Beaverton, Oregon, in May 2008, an obviously tired Barack Obama mistakenly told a crowd that over the course of the long campaign he had been to fifty-seven states in the U.S., with one left to go:

"... it is just wonderful to be back in Oregon, and over the last 15 months we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been infifty .... seven states? I think one left to go. One left to go. Alaska and Hawaii, I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit but my staff would not justify it."

Talking with reporters at a later campaign stop, Senator Obama expressed concern that he'd recently misstated both the number of potential victims of a recent cyclone in Burma and the number of states he'd visited, saying: "I hope I said 100 thousand people the first time instead of 100 million. I understand I said there were 57 states today. It's a sign that my numeracy is getting a little, uh ..."

They clearly don't grease enough wheels. Trickle down didn't happen, dummy.

What so you think drives the economy? The benevolence of billionaires?

It didnt happen because the Democrats instituted higher taxes and more regulation. Or did you miss that part?
Business investment drives the economy, Einstein.

You are wrong. If you weren't wrong, you could prove that. You can't.

Which part do you need proof of?
Tell you what: go read about a dozen books on economics and investing and then you might know as much about the subject as I do. Throwing out some worthless two bit leftist website isnt really proof of anything.

You don't know shit. I've never read something that you wrote and thought....."Damn, that guy knows his stuff"

You claim to have read a dozen books on economics and investing? Is that supposed to be impressive?

Weak demand......weak economy.
All the money concentrated in a few hands.....weak demand.....weak economy.

Right. My posts dont impress you because you dont know enough. Go off and read econ and business books and then come back and start posting instead of wasting everyone's time with your ignorant fact-free posts.

Tell me....which book do you recommend I begin with? You are telling me that I need to read books......but you have claimed that investment drives our economy. When are you going to support that claim?

Yer funny. You looked up a book. Sowell, huh? I thought for sure you'd give me a Cain title. You are a 999 guy, right?

Only someone who (a) has never experienced what a business owner has and (b) is doing nothing more than playing to a throng that has also never experienced what a business owner has would say such a thing.

Pretty easy to say those words. Pretty easy to scream in agreement. Start a business. Grow it. Live through the sacrifice and the stress and the risk and the daily shitstorm of creating a successful ongoing enterprise, and then get back to me.

Otherwise you're speaking out of pure, abject -- yes, "ignorance" is the proper word.

.

I've owned my own business for decades, started from scratch and know damn well all the sacrifices and travails of what it's like being a business owner and growing it. I'll also "get back to you" and say I don't have a damn problem with these words and are in complete agreement with them:

=========================
OBAMA: “If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges.
If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.

The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together. There are some things, just like fighting fires, we don’t do on our own. I mean, imagine if everybody had their own fire service. That would be a hard way to organize fighting fires.

So we say to ourselves, ever since the founding of this country, you know what, there are some things we do better together. That’s how we funded the GI Bill.

That’s how we created the middle class. That’s how we built the Golden Gate Bridge or the Hoover Dam. That’s how we invented the Internet.

That’s how we sent a man to the moon. We rise or fall together as one nation and as one people, and that’s the reason I’m running for president — because I still believe in that idea. You’re not on your own, we’re in this together.”

I've mortgaged property, cashed in ira's to start businesses and buy units, sometimes working two jobs, renting out rooms, or whatever it took. Still, we all have help and/or good fortune along the way and I agree with the "you didn't build it by yourself" sentiment. And many others like me say the same. I also did military time back in the day when people were actually drafted. I helped keep the shipping lanes safe, and foreign countries safe for our large corporations to do business in. Then to add insult to injury, some of these bastards offshore american jobs to communist countries and they claim residence in foreign countries to beat paying their fair share of taxes. I like to tell especially the romneys, bush brothers, and walmart heirs: you didn't build it without daddie's start up inheritance bucks and you certainly were mia in doing your military time to help keep your money and your way of life safe like some of us did for you.

From the people who awarded the Lie of the Year to Obama:

?You Didn?t Build That,? Uncut and Unedited

 

[AvgGuyIA]

"If you've got a business—you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen."

Spoken by someone who clearly never built anything.

It's easy to take a statement like that, standing alone, seem like something it was never intended to represent. But when the full context is revealed, so is the truth.

Here is the quote in its full context"

"Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that [the roads and bridges]. Somebody else made that happen."

Some folks might think you don't know what the phuck you're talking about. But, hey, I know you must not have done due diligence and checked that out properly, right? You wouldn't try to mislead others on purpose now, would you?

Wouldn't one who attended top private schools and all Ivy League for advanced degrees phrase it as follows:


- "Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that infrastructure" [ clearly differentiating between the business and the roads and bridges]

- "Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build those.

He was referring to business. "THAT" can only refer to something singular and business is the only singular in the context of the sentence.

Thank you for confirming what I said.

Who told you he was joking? He sounded pretty serious to me... Maybe a bit stoned, but not joking.

Why not go and check out your original statement.
Then try to say it is deflection
"The most ignorant line in the history of man."
So yo don't consider georgie boy bush a man lol.
But he did make some rather ignorant stupid statements. So you try to say they don't count.
You made one of the most moronic statements then. You are in a class by yourself making that statement of deflection.
It's quite obvious you don't have an idea of how to construct a statement that is true.

Bush: Truly not concerned about bin Laden (short version) - YouTube
Try this on for size. This is 100 times worse not worried about the man suspected of killing nearly 3000 citizens.
You have a terrible memory or you just have hatred in your soul.

Wow, major league deflection there.

So everything must be compared to Bush's war, then?

.

My original statement?

I didn't make that statement.

This isn't my thread.

Wanna try again?

Does this mean I didn't build my deck in the backyard?
