There the MSM goes again, trying to do everything in their power to make this little twit look good. If it had been Hillary, they would've called it a "blunder", McCain, it'd be a "gross lie".
But since it's Barack Hussein Obama, it's just a "gaffe". Yes, HIS.

“Innocent mistake” on the part of his campaign is in other words, lies, lies and more lies to further a political agenda that does not include support for any troops of the US variety.

How many more GAFFES can this guy make and get a free pass????

BO, like his party followers, are suffering from some sort of hero psychosis. I know some of them. These people don’t care about truth.

He’s lucky that he gaffed on Auschwitz and Uncles right after he started seeing ghosts.

Will Keiff Olbermann ever be able to forgive him for this?
To: Baladas
Over 40 corrections (google source) were issued yesterday by the Obama media in regards to this. Expect the spin cycle to be going full force today. The problem however is that even the correction does not add up.

"And the story in our family was that when he came home, he just went up into the attic and he didn't leave the house for six months."Who told this to you, Barry... your typical, white-person grandma? And, are you making fun of your great-uncle... who obviously was suffering from PTSD???

The man is either completely stupid or a compulsive liar. Either way, does anyone want him in charge?

If Barack Tomatoe Obama were Dan Quayle, or any Republican, he would have long ago been marginalized by the media for his many gaffes.

As many as he wants or as many as he just happens to make! The media loves him and will continue to do everything in their power to see that Hillary is trashed and Obama is their nominee! Obama is more of a “liberal socialist” than Hillary and the media always goes to the left as far as they can!

How old was his “great uncle” in 1945? 50 or 60?

His Uncles name was Jeremiah, and to top that off I always thought that Jeremiah was a bullfrog.

Oh, has he? Tell this asshat at ABC:
“Obama deserved to be called out for his mistake. But it’s also worth noting that despite all the talk about Obama’s problems with the Jewish community, he’s never mentioned before that his great uncle helped liberate a concentration camp until it came up in North Las Vegas in a conversation about PTSD.”
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/05/of-gaffes-and-p.html
I’d disagree with Jack there too - most cc survivors would resent the fact that BO thinks the *real* name of the camp wouldn’t matter - bet it would to them.

Barack was trying to show that he is a strong supporter of returning vets.
So he had to pretend that returning Vets with mental problems did not get help back in the 40's.
Barack is wrong about that, too.
For starters, John Huston made a film about the treatment that was given Vets, called Let There Be Light
Barack has a habit of painting a bleak view of reality, so that he can pose as a savior who will make things better.
