We learned it from the left who thought Palin actually wanted to shot dems when she put "bulls eyes targets" on them.

These threads are full of the left going bananas every time a repub uses figurative speech and now the right isn't allowed to do the same thing.

Double standard much?

Probably you should actually start reading and watching real news, rather than the paid for advertising of the right wing media.

I watched the snippets that your chosen media played out of context, and in both cases I understood, as I think most thinking Americans would, that his reference to "my sons" was as the country's leader he looks upon all young Americans as his daughters and sons.

Have you noticed that Conservatives seem to have a challenge with abstract thinking?

If you are going to insult someone on the facts maybe it is YOU who need to check YOUR facts first.

Too funny. LOL
You really don't get it DO YOU!!
The way President Obama said "my son's" was ridiculous and what's even more ridiculous is the way you and other's are trying to explain away his "my son's" comment........he could have and should have worded it differently. After all it's people like you that criticize anyone that would make the same mistake (ya right) if President Bush had said this you would've been all over it.

He's so well spoken how could he have said this. Maybe, he needs a new Teleprompter.

It's rather comical to watch the lefties try and explain away this presidential faux pas the way they have. Why can't they just admit he was reading from a teleprompter and read what was there without thinking?

As for Obama thinking about all young people as his own children......now that's a scary thought.

Can't be fixed.........your like the 10th person I've seen on here this week threatening to report others.

Did you people do this in school also........... I thought I was debating adults, not whinny children. Didn't your mother teach you to not be a tattle-tale.

No crow whatsoever. If you listen again, he refers to 60 states, just like I said.
