Flashback: Was This the Dumbest Thing Obama Ever Said?
Now, some folks are dinging the President because, in response to people fainting at his rally, he said “call a paralegal” before correcting himself.
But, credit where it’s due, he DID correct himself.
However, in 2007, after a tornado in Kansas killed 12 people, he said there were “10,000 dead.”
He didn’t correct himself:

But there’s two more things to notice in this clip. First, the guy behind Obama on the stage, nodding gravely as Obama tosses out the 10,000 number, when he SHOULD have had a WTF look on his face.
Where’s Joe Wilson when you need him?
The other thing…
What the hell is up with Obama’s “I Have a Dream” accent & cadence? It’s like MLK Impression Night at the Improv.
The man is a cheap huckster, a shill, a carnival barker. He should be selling tickets to a tent containing a jar holding a two-headed pig fetus that’s labeled “Space Alien”.

Carnival barker and ticket seller would be real jobs, Harvey. And he’s never had one.

Also, he’s going to need more than a paralegal when he’s out of office.

I think it was a Freudian slip.
Need medical care? Call a paralegal to fill out the necessary paperwork and file it with the Death Panel….but wait…I’m getting ahead of myself.

He’s walking in circles, wondering where the teleprompter is.

he’d sell more tickets if he called it a ten-thousand-headed pig fetus

His calculation of these numbers show how he calculates his budget numbers also.

You’re a braver man than I if you would buy ANYTHING this flim-flam artist is selling!

O’s dumbest moment was definitely the “corpse-man” kerfuffle. And he said it twice!

You know, that’s the weirdest thing – a lot of the time he’s reported on as a great orator, but when the TOTUS isn’t around he appears to be a ridiculous stumblebum, even to the point of resembling Jackie Gleason’s character in “The Honeymooners” with the whole “hahminahahminahahmina” thing. I wonder why that is…
