He never looks comfortable when he speaks, it's like someone's got their hand crammed up his ass or something. Those forced laughs and smiles of his are hilarious. I'm just waiting for day when that famous temper of his comes out in a debate and he starts going ballistic on Barry or the moderator about something.
He'll end up calling him "boy"...you know it will happen at some point.

More funny news:
Obama was responding to comments from Phil Gramm, a former Texas senator and a co-chair of McCain's presidential campaign who told the Washington Times that America has "become a nation of whiners" and the country is in the midst of a "mental recession."
"We have sort of become a nation of whiners. You just hear this constant whining, complaining about a loss of competitiveness, America in decline," he said. “You've heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession."
McCain's response:
“Phil Gramm does not speak for me,” he said. “I speak for me.”

So, to recap...
McCaain think's America is a bunch of whiners and Obama thinks we should all speak Spanish to make communication more pleasant when we pay our gardener.

The quote with more context:
"I don't understand when people are going around saying, 'We need to have English only.' They want to pass a law 'We want English only.' Now I agree that immigrants should learn English. I agree with that. But understand this. Instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English. They'll learn English. You need to make sure your child can speak Spanish. You should be thinking about how can your child become bilingual. We should have every child speaking more than one language. It's embarrassing when Europeans come over here, they all speak English, they speak French, they speak German. And then we go over to Europe and all we can say is merci beaucoup, right?"

Obama's FULL quote. Can someone explain to me what is wrong/offensive (or Marxist for that matter) about it?
"I don't understand when people are going around saying, 'We need to have English only.' They want to pass a law 'We want English only.' Now I agree that immigrants should learn English. I agree with that. But understand this. Instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English. They'll learn English. You need to make sure your child can speak Spanish.

Again with the F'ing European comparisons. Brutal. They all speak different languages cause their Countries are the f'ing size of about the States of the Middle Atlantic and they all speak different languages. Immigrants should learn to speak english because it will make them more succesful. Unlike my kid learning to speak Spanish (will make THEM more succesful/hireable).

"Immigrants should learn to speak english"
Does anyone disagree with this?
Please tell me why is it a bad thing to learn more than one language.

Glenn, you should know by now that liberals get hard over anything they do in Europe and insist that our country should be more like Europe (socialized heathcare, et al)

"You need to make sure your child can speak Spanish. You should be thinking about how can your child become bilingual."
My problem is he's changing the subject. Don't just say "I agree and they will" when it comes to Spaniards learning English (glossing over it). I don't give a shit if a French tourist thinks I'm ignorant because I didn't learn French in the event his stinky ass got lost in central PA.
95% of Americans don't need to know a second language for any reason. I agree that it's a great tool, but hardly a priority. Making sure Americans can speak English IS.

Watching EAG nail this stuff then seeing Dino reply with personal insults is hilarious.
Of course Barry and his ilk get a boner for Europe, it's what they do. They dream of a North American Union, the Amero and a transcontinental highway.
