3rdnlng Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 The Quote of the Decade: “The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, "the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.” ~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Seriously, no one has done the most obvious one. “I can make a firm pledge, under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes" - Barack Obama 2008 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janicks Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 "Here in Asia", while he was in Hawaii. For quotes given by presidents who don't can't talk good no one is ever going to beat GWB. My favorite three: "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again." —Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 17, 2002 "Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country." —Poplar Bluff, Mo., Sept. 6, 2004 "Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream." —LaCrosse, Wis., Oct. 18, 2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxrock Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 You want a "W" thread, start a "W" thread. Sheeesh... "It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: (White) People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied, they were relieved -- such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time." -- Barack Obama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"One such translator was an American of Haitian descent, representative of the extraordinary work that our men and women in uniform do all around the world -- Navy Corpse-Man Christian Brossard." –mispronouncing "Corpsman" (the "ps" is silent) during a speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, Washington, D.C., Feb. 5, 2010 (The Corpsman's name is also Christopher, not Christian) Oh, that was Obama again.
