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 didn’t 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 doesn’t need any more problems keeping Jewish voters enthusiastic about his re-election bid.

It would sure be fun to edit-out the self-correction and then post it on You Tube (for an hour, if lucky). Not much different than when Newt said that he wanted to make the Healthcare Financing Agency (or something close to that name) “wither on the vine” and the Dems said he wanted Medicare to wither on the vine.
Well now we know what’s been on his mind since the Dems lost Weiner’s NY-9 seat.
Brilliant!
I always say Jew when I mean janitor,
I mean they’re so close phonetically.
And what Christian or Jew or Buddhist doesn’t occasionally slip and refer to their Muslim faith ?
Barry also told the CBC to “ take off their bedroom slippers “ and
put on their “ marching shoes .”
Maybe he thought he was speaking to the marching bands during halftime at the Bayou Classic.

Is that Michelle at 7:47 ?
“my muslim faith...” oops.
“same tax rate as a Jew....” oops.
“corpse man, corpse man, corpse man...” oops.
“It’s not like I’m running for president...” oops.
(said to Alan Keyes during the IL Senate debate when Alan said Hussein wasn’t even born in the USA.)
“army base...” oops.
But even if he did not slip and said janitor. How long is he going to get away with that BS about Billionaires paying a less percentage in taxes than a janitor? The man is sick.
Not a gaffe at all. He said exactly what he meant.
Hussein...Hussein...Just when you got some Jewish support back from your UN speech...
Cracks in the China?
certainly sounds like he is.
if people cannot see this admin and zero have a less than favorable view of jews then they really are blind.
Rev Wright and Bill Ayers combined and I’ll wait to see this corrupt media report this
ARF. Imagine Palin saying this EEK
Obama must have just come from a White House visit with Jeremiah Wright and Calypso Louie.
Dey hate dem Jooos.
These Freudian slips of Obamas give a person real insight into what Obama probably talks like off camera.

Still nothing on Drudge. Maybe Matt doesn’t see a story here either. If this clip were what is claimed, it’d be a banner headline on Drudge.
In modified form: I distinctly remember that on CNN Headline News, Linda Ellerbee reporting. The first time I heard it, it ended with "Most of the reporters in the room thought Quayle was right!" OK, with that, it's just an amusing anecdote.
In all later iterations (remember Headline News used to repeat the same things pretty much each hour?), that line was cut -- and I was listening for it!

Perhaps I didn't make myself clear. If you believe that this is a non story then you would likely be gullible enough to purchase worthless land in Florida. The MSM does not have to pick up this story for it to have legs. I have a niece in Atlanta who married a Jewish man who loves Obama, but he hates anyone who uses the term “Jew” in any kind of derogatory manner. I haven't spoken to him yet about this, he will need time to cool down. Anyway, I'm sure his support for the “One” just evaporated.
People are starting to see Obama for what he really is. We knew years ago but some people are a little slow.
Kind of Sounded like a fake Freudian slip...? Could a body language or speech expert tell?
