Speaking at the Congressional Black Caucus annual awards dinner in Washington Saturday night, President Obama made a verbal boo-boo.
While defending his call for the rich to pay more in taxes, the president said he didnt mind people calling him a class warrior for merely asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a Jew. Whoops!
The president meant to say janitor instead of Jew, and he immediately corrected himself. After all, he doesnt need any more problems keeping Jewish voters enthusiastic about his re-election bid.

This slip might be even worse than the article suggests. He possibly meant to say: "Billionaires should not pay the Jew tax rate." Maybe a conspiratorial thought that Jews pay some inexplicably low and 'unfair' tax rate.
Had this been Palin...
Was George Stephanopolous there to correct him?
Your Christian Faith, LOL...
It’s almost as if he’s purposefully setting himself up for defeat.
Well, cut him some slack, at least he didn’t misspell potatoe. That would be criminal!
Does Drudge know about this? Rush? Breitbart? Can’t wait till the morning programs. This is disastrous for the Man-Child.
It’s uncomfortably plausible. A Jew to him would be someone who is consummately skilled at shucking off taxes by means fair or foul, looking only at money when figuring how to do business.
I wonder when, or even if, America will be privy to the Obama equivalent to the Nixon “expletive deleted” tapes?
Correction: Obama probably did not mean to say that, but that is possibly a stereotypical thought an anti-Semite might have, that Jews pay some unfairly low tax rate peculiar only to them.
HEADS UP PING!
Thank you Lord~~
The Lord works in mysterious ways and I have a feeling He has only begun playing with Howdy Doody.
Don’t be a schmarty, join the Nazi Democrat party !
Next he’ll offer a Final Solution for Janitors!
Not to mention hearing what his pastor of twenty years, who baptized his kids, whom he attended the services and supposedly didn’t hear, none other than Jeremiah Wright.
If the rich DID pay the same rate as the janitor, then the revenue would drop by about 75% because the working poor pay almost nothing.
lol. One of the more ridiculous non-stories I’ve seen in a while.
Uh huh. Crossed up his alliteration, there. Slipped up and used the “J” word he meant to conceal with “billionaire.”
You know that’s what happened, his crowd just loves alliteration and do not like Jews or Israel.
“Jews should pay the same rate as janitors” has such a Jeremiah Wright ring to it. No doubt in my mind, that’s what he was tring too hard not to say, on the record at least.
you are gonna hit the wall, mr. foolish-bigot-thug-fag-president.
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
