I know. What was I thinking?
I really shouldn't be surprised by any stupidly insensitive thing that comes out of Mr. Romney's mouth.
Given the number of things that are taken out of context by the Dims and doctored and such to gain political advantage.......this is what you have been told to believe
Obama started to stutter and than stated "lean forward" during his speech about the disaster.
This is the MSNBC slogun used for Obama's campaign while Obama is using "forward" as his slogun!
It was not me that first noticed it but I heard it on the radio and agree with the host of the radio show that it is a new low for Obama to use campaigning during a disaster.
Aside from typo's, I'm always happy to learn and if I can learn every day one additional word that means 365 a year which adds up and helps my grammar.
To me it is more sad that a president is making errors who claims to be born in the USA, and is stating 57 States, " navy corps" , etc.....
I don't agree with your politics, but your English is better than many, many native speakers, so kudos to you.

Thanks, we can agree to disagree
But being in real estate and involved in property management, short sales, foreclosures and see all the lies people are selling and lying on tax returns, is very sad and hard on all others.
I have been following the elections in The Netherlands where the "right wing" would over here be called "left" is now raising health care payments for people who earn $ 77 K per year or up, to 10K per year!
The chosen person to become the Prime Minister if I can call him that since the system works different is now named "Marx" in todays news papers and he is from a party that is a conservative party!
The system is broke over there and soon they will follow all other European coutries and unemployed is rising, tax increases and it again is showing that socialist systems are not working.
Soon you run out of other peoples money and the more wealthy become lazy or don't want to work for others anymore, and what then? Wealthy people can move, the rest will be stuck.
I have seen and witnessed what unemployment benefits are doing. If you get it fo 2 years...why bother to get a job until you are close to he 2 years of getting the same money for doing nothing. If you get it 3 years than they wait even longer...it is just common sense and the new norm for people who don't have to get up for the same money!
Over there I had my own business and you can't just fire lazy employees, you are stuck with them. if an employee goes on a wintersport vacation and break a leg, the employer has to pay a penalty because the employee is getting sick pay partially paid by the government...Is that fair? Not at all!

No offense, but I've met "illegals" who can spell better than that (or at least they have enuff sense to use spell-check)! So when even native folks can't handle basic readin' and writin', what makes 'em think they're qualified to weigh in on 'weightier' matters (let alone point out "presidential errors"...)?!
Plus, I think a certain Republican Governor might have a thing or two to say about the president acting like a leader during this crisis. Hang on, let me think for a moment. ...
Why yes, yes he did! Not once, but (at least) twice!
