Obama: Imusgate and Virgina Tech very similar
Can we all now agree that Barack Obama is not ready for prime time?!
"In a speech yesterday, Barack Obama compared what happened at Virginia Tech to Don Imus’s 'verbal violence,' and the undefined kind of 'violence' that outsourcing effects. According to Obama, the latter is 'violence' because 'men and women who have worked all their lives and suddenly have the rug pulled out from under them because their job is moved to another country.' Offering these types of comments while 32 families are grieving? Astonishingly inappropriate at best. 'Appalling' probably hits closer to the mark for most people."
God help us if Obama's ever elected to another office other than Chicago's dogcatcher.
