There you go. Already Mustard and Fusion are acting according to script and saying Obama’s flubs are excusable. You guys do know the meaning of ‘et al’ right?

Another example is how Arkansas borders Kentucky but not Illinois.

MikeN says:

Obama claimed the Iraq War was hurting the mission in Afghanistan because of a lack of translators. Of course they speak a different language in the two countries. Clearly he is too inexperienced in foreign policy.

>>You guys do know the meaning
>>of ‘et al’ right?

We do, but apparently YOU don’t. It means “et allii”, which is Latin for “and others”. As in “and other PEOPLE”, which is why it’s used in a list of people’s names, to indicate that there are additional people not listed. Such as in a list of authors.

What you intended to say was “et cetera”, meaning “and so forth”, or literally “and other things”.

And you’re right. No one should make any mistake, ever, no matter how trivial.

However, if I’ve gotta choose a blunder-maker, I’d far sooner choose somebody who blurts out something like “57 states” (when everyone knows Obama knows how many states there are) over a non-stop motormouth who spent 8 years (and decades before that) spitting out idiotic misconceptions, malapropisms, and outright lies.

And come on. Arkansas/ Kentucky/ Illinois? First of all, Obama never said what you said he said. He said that Hillary would have an advantage in Kentucky because it was nearer Arkansas than Illinois. He made a boo-boo. No mention of borders, though. OK. w00t! You win.

What he MEANT (although his was a commonly-held opinion that dare not speak its name) was that there are a lot of snaggletoothed, inbred, cross-eyed moonshine-swilling refugees from Deliverance in Kentucky and Arkansas, and fewer in Illinois. So Kentucky and Arkansas share that bond.

Give it up, Lyin’/ Ignorant Mike. If you’re going to try and lampoon Obama for his lack of mental prowess, you’re on a sinking ship. Better that you join your fucktard bretheren on the radical right in criticizing him for being too intelligent. At least you’ve got a leg to stand on there.

STFU, in that meager post you added NOTHING. Try adding some substance to the conversation instead of all the bullshit.

And you claim to be a lingust, ha!

Mr. Fusion says:

#50, ‘dro,

Maybe if I understood the Cuban mystique I could understand your simple mind a little better. BUT, as usual, your comments are simplistic. They never add to the discussion, they only criticize those adding something. You generally don’t refute a point; you ridicule it without offering any alternative point of view or explanation of why that view is incorrect. Your simple Cuban mind fails to grasp the intricacies of the general nuances put forth.

In short, you appear to be intoxicated upon your own verbosity during a momentous period in our history, in order to further bombast those with a higher than room temperature intelligence quotient out of more than extreme jealousy. Your pseudointellect is only outpaced by your oral diarrhea.

Get a life ‘dro. Until then, STFU.

# 47 Greg Allen said, “But his wars, war zones and drawn-out occupation is the perfect breeding that gives the terrorists “recuritaments” and a gigantic pool of resentful and bitter people to recruit from.”

Exactly. And to think that Obama wants to continue AND expand this in Afghanistan. Pure stupidity.

#59…that’s whatcha call a blame shift, such as the economy today is Clinton’s fault.

The 108th and 109th congresses are fairly regarded as a couple of the worst ever, especially 109. The 110th (when the Dems won back ‘majorities’) wasn’t the best, but it wasn’t the clusterfick of the prior two, which were nothing more than rubber stamps for the worst president, ever. Ever.
