Obama pens letter to schoolteacher (w screenshot of handwritten letter)
Yahoo News ^ | Nov 28, 2013 | Eric Pfeiffer/Barack H. Obama

A Texas schoolteacher who wrote a letter highly critical of President Obama’s health care law was surprised when the president himself wrote back defending his policies but admitting that health care “wasn’t the smart political thing!”

Just like every commander in chief before him, Obama has his share of critics. And in the Internet age, those critics have been given a bigger voice than ever before.

But what do you when the president writes back? The New York Post reports that fifth-grade schoolteacher Thomas J. Ritter was shocked to receive a handwritten response from Obama that reads in part...

This is either a forgery or Obama is even more illiterate than we thought.

Why is my first thought "this isn't really from the President"?? Ha! Perhaps among the vast and diverse ranks of fellow FReepers there is an expert handwriting analyst who can tell me whether I'm just totally psyched out by this President, and am just foolishly believing he is not capable of any honest or true act...!

But...back to real life...HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE!

The more I look at it, the more I think that it’s a forgery, intended as a satire but some a swallowing it hook, line, and sinker, as they say.

The entire tone of it just doesn’t sound right.

I remember FDR (barely) and all the others since. I have been a news junky all those years.

I do not remember any president -- and damn few people in public life -- whining so damn much.

This is you mind on drugs.. I guess.

I kept thinking it’s a forgery — but here is another handwritten letter by Obama that is actually at the White House website:

Everything about this guy is a diversionary smokescreen to hide his fraud from the American people.

Obama’s handwritten letter that supposedly is a tribute to the Gettsburg address (link inmy post 11), ends up pushing “gay rights”... typical Obama.

Based on the fact that the word “I” is used only seven times, and there is not one “perfectly clear”....I call BS on this

My first thought is Carney wrote it, not the president. They never show these letters to the president, just to Valery and Michelle. Maybe Michelle had Reggie Love scribble that note out as a condition of his continued ‘off the books’ allowance for being the president’s “body man” (wink-wink).

We have enough evidence of him speaking his mind, and him speaking someone else’s written words.

WE have evidence that he is left-handed, as this script indicates.

We have evidence that he does NOT stop and cross all of his letter ‘t’’s, and in one instance, did not ‘dot an ‘i’’.

‘I’’s are written larger than the rest of the measured script.

The syntax and rhythm of the message can only be forged, if there exists an exact duplicate of a similar text, done by a left-handed person.

I will state it is a 51% to 49% authentic.

When a queer calls John Q./Jane Q. Public of America, a queer (teabagger), there ought to be a whole lot of heck.

Shouldn’t there?
