One of Barry's handlers must have let him off his leash because even Barry has to know that his ad-lib statements in this video clip will come back to haunt him.

What are some examples of things that didn't work the first time that Barry keeps going back to? I think he left out the stimulus, and green jobs, and food stamps, and undoing welfare reform, and job creation, and raising the debt ceiling, and closing GITMO, and bringing troops home from Afghanistan, and the list goes on... I'd laugh but the results and impact on our Nation and the Citizenry are not in the least bit humorous, they are tragic at best.

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Given the faux outrage on the left right now how could you have left out outsourcing jobs overseas with our money?

Your "Handlers let him off his leash" comment was uncalled for and borders on racism. And I know you won't apologize for it.

I didn't want to let it go unchallenged.

Raees, you be as offended as you want to be, and you're right, I'll make no apologies for my remark.

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Racism? seriously? You must not get out mucjh.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Claims of racism are about all they have left, let them have some kind of straw to hang on to.

It occurs to me that it is Raees that equates blacks with animals on a leash. I guess in his heart of hearts he is a racist. I am sure if PV were around she would validate that.

No, the OP equated the president to an animal on a leash -- unless you are aware of people being on leashes in the present day. Slaves were on leashes. Dogs are on leashes. In either case, that's what the OP was going for...

I said it borders on racism. And it does. Implying a black man should be on a leash borders on racism.

The fact that you refuse to realize it or even accept that it could be seen that way shows the kind of shallow persons you are.

It's not a racist comment at all. I use that same type of saying in the business world when I can't find someone I'm looking for in their office - I ask around "Awright... Who dropped John's leash and let him get away again?"

You are the one that made it racist. It is a comparison to dogs, but never before has it entered my mind to think of that as racist until you stretched it to ridiculous lengths trying to reach back to slavery.

I'm ashamed of you for thinking it was racist - you must spend alot of time thinking of the color of people's skin to come up with racism where it's not intended. Personally, I prefer to judge people by their actions and character. As proven multiple times in the past, when Obama speaks extemporaneously, it's like letting a dog off it's leash in a park - you know eventually it's going to do something dumb.
