Did Obama really say "You-tay" for the Ute Tribe?
Here on FR

Posted on 09/15/2008 4:16:23 PM PDT by Mamzelle

Came across someone in FR thread who said that Obama in Grand Junction today mispronounced the name of the Ute Tribe of American Indians. Is this so, and can we please have a youtube?

I heard that snippet (as ‘background noise’... somewhere)... I thought he was speaking of something else, but I wasn’t really paying attention.

Most likely whoever typed the stuff into his teleprompter didn’t spell it for him phonetically.

Obama, himself, wouldn’t even know the difference between a Ute and a blue painted Pict if they were smacking him in the face.

Doesn’t matter either way, just more info showing Obama is an idiot. The Indians already have web sites up opposing Obama.

Paterno needs to do an ad for McCain in which he teaches Obama how to pronounce the PSU nickname.That would be a big deal in PA.

I’m sure Obama pronounced Ute “you-tay” because he was thinking of his brother-in-arms (and cousin for all we know) Uday Hussein, sadistic son of Saddam Hussein.

"When in Pennsylvania a few weeks ago, he called the Penn State Football Team the "Nittaly Lions."

No, it wasn't Pennsylvania, Obama said he was glad to be in "New Pennsylvania." Somebody could right a quickie book about all his gaffes......Call it "Nuance" (but you better be fast!!!).

You go to Harvard in MA and Columbia U in NY, but don’t know about the Nittany Lions in PA?

You live among Hawaiians and have a mother from Kansas, but can’t say Ute?

This guy’s not from around here. He’s not one of us.

I think he got that pronunciation from a South Park episode.

Go Trey !!

Add his “wreck havoc” instead of wreak havoc, and “drive off a ditch” instead of drive off a cliff.”

Well, it IS the University of Utah Yutes . . . isn’t it?

Yup.

Obama has real problem with the college mascots.

With all his talk of pigs lately, maybe he’s starting to speak Pig Latin.
