You assume he's talking about the country as a whole.

He could just as easily be talking about the extreme left.

The extreme left absorbed 9/11 and came back stronger.

Zippo has a habit of referring to the extreme left as “WE” as in “We are what you've been waiting for”.

My impression is he's referring to his administration absorbing an attack and coming back stronger.

*My son is a Marine heading to Afghanistan in December, and as far as I’m concerned, this shithead just gave our enemies the green light to take any of us out where ever we are, especially our troops.*

Actually, if the Talib are smart, they won’t kill anyone until June 2011, If they were smart, they’d just stockpile weapons and kill everyone after we leave.

Watching the video, the first thing that jumps out is that scum like Simon Rosenberg cannot help themselves when they speak, they have to lie! ... This pond scum leftist asserted that 53 percent of the American people were behind Obama in 2008. To need to lie so blatantly tells me two things immediately: the progressive scum like Rosenberg have total disdain for the American people as nothing more than what obamanoids characterizes as ‘Homer Simpsons to be manipualted’, AND the scum are just beginning to realize that we the people are not going quietly into the progressives ‘marxist utopia’, that we are locking and loading and coming for the scum like Rosenberg who have such disdain for we the people. Tolerating scum like Rosenberg is why we’re so far down the broad road to destruction. Time to build the guillotines

I'm gonna shrug at this news. It is appalling, yes, but not surprising in the least. Anyone with even the smallest ability to analyze Obama's background in 2007 and 2008 could see the enormous danger he posed to our country. Yet conservatives spent more time worrying about the Clintons and "RINO's" then paying attention to what was actually happening. Conservatives are still doing that now. Y'all took your eyes off the ball, people. You turned on almost everyone in the Republicn Party, deserved or not, and let the Democrats back into power without much of a fight at all.

Someone like me, who is not quite as far right as many of you, is now stuck hoping all your "tea party" people win their elections. If we don't take back at least one house of Congress, God help us all.

When he says “WE” he does offend me ... I start “feeling” / acting like a DU poster for a couple of minutes until I regain my composure

McCain, Lindsey and a few others can also push that button.

COULDN'T care less. Can't anybody write the English language any more?

Ditto that.

I'm afraid there are increasingly fewer who can.

Obama, our first Rohypnol president.
First he gave it to the press,
Now he is giving it to us.

Just who the Hell is Obama to be so cavalier with Americans lives and the nations security?

He is one of them, obviously. Certainly not one of us.

Looks like Gatewaypundit blew the transcription.

What Bolton said was, “Obama’s divorced from the American people, he’s unempathetic, I think these quotes show that, and I think the American people have the wit to know what that means.”

I am sorry, but I must admit that I didn’t even know of Rohypnol until your post.

I have to vote 100% accurate for technical content, but somewhat lacking in Rapid Recognition attribute needed for an effective bumper sticker.

I couldn't care less = no care what so ever

I could care less = there is more room for me to not care..or I care some...

To people that read words, it is a big difference...imho

I think “couldn’t care less”/”could care less” is like irony or sarcasm. It’s like “slim chance” is the same as “fat chance”.

Still, it is inaccurate. For that reason, I’ll suggest the more accurate “could not care less”.

“It’s accurate, and correct. I can’t believe this is being argued!” (We live in an age that sees correct grammar as an affront, and where it is ridiculed).
