They Said It
Those elitist liberals, the intellectuals, the ones that look down their collective noses at us actually said these things. Be it lies, schemes or just plain stupid, they said it:

Campaigning for her husband in June 2008 at a speech for the Gay & Lesbian Leadership Council of the Democratic National Committee:
"Barack has led by example. When we took a trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya we took a public HIV test for the very point of showing folks in Kenya that there is nothing embarrassed about in getting tested."
- Michelle Obama
Admitting that Barack was born in Kenya, the Obamas didn't release the results of that test, if they actually had them.

"People say, well, how can a private company compete against the government? If you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. Right? No, they are. I mean, it's the post office that's always having problems."
- Barack Hussein Obama
Obama in a town hall meeting on August 11, 2009 trying to convince America that the government can run healthcare.

Reacting to bills that are passed without being read:
"I love these members that get up and say, Read the bill! Well, what good is reading the bill if it's a thousand pages and you don't have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you've read the bill?"
- Congressman John Conyers
Then maybe you should have voted "no" rather than pass something you don't understand.

Speaking on the Catholic view of abortion and conception:
"I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue that I have studied for a long time. And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition."
- Nancy Pelosi
The Pope later admonished her ignorance, stupidity and immorality.

"On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in the audience here today"
- Barack Hussein Obama
Obama confusing Memorial Day with Veterans' Day. Maybe he buries survivors, too?

"Look, John's (McCain's) last minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number one job facing the middle class and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three letter word, jobs. J-O-B-S. Jobs."
- Joe Biden

Referring to a storm in Kansas in which 12 people died:

- Nancy Pelosi

In an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos:
"What I was suggesting -- you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith"
- Barack Hussein Obama
Obama has professed to being a Christian.

Asked in an interview in June 2009 why Obama hasn't spoken to him:
"Them Jews ain't going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter that he'll talk to me in five years when he's a lame duck, or in eight years when he's out of office. They will not let him to talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is. I said from the beginning. He's a politician, I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do."
- Reverend Jeremiah Wright
Obama's spiritual leader for twenty years

"I am very optimistic about Iraq. I think it's going to be one of the great achievements of this (Obama's) administration."

"...it was also interesting to see that political interaction in Europe is not that different from the United States Senate. There's a lot of, I don't know what the term is in Austrian, wheeling and dealing."
- Barack Hussein Obama
There is no such language as "Austrian." They speak German.

"You cannot go to a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian Accent."
- Joe Biden

Obama confusing the 57 states of Islam with the 50 United States of America:
"Over the last 15 months, we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been in 57 states? I think one left to go."
- Barack Hussein Obama

Telling an interviewer how to grow government larger by spending more and raising taxes:
"Rule one: Never allow a crisis to go to waste. They are opportunities to do big things."

"I am a product of affirmative action. I am the perfect Affirmative Action baby. I am a Puerto Rican, born and raised in the south Bronx and from what is traditionally described as a socio-economically poor background. My test scores where not comparable to that of my colleagues at Princeton or Yale; not so far off the mark that I wasn't able to succeed at those institutions. But, if we had gone through the traditional numbers route of those institutions, it would have been highly questionable whether I would have been accepted with my academic achievement in high school. I was accepted rather readily at Princeton and equally as fast at Yale, but my test scores were not comparable to that of my classmates."
- Sonia Sotomayor

Joe Biden, put in charge of overseeing how the stimulus money is being spent was asked about an $8.7 billion tunnel under the Hudson that will connect New Jersey to Manhattan:
"Look, this is designed, this totally new tunnel, is designed to provide for automobile traffic. It's something, as you know, up your way, that's been in the works and people have been clamoring for for a long time."
- Joe Biden
The tunnel is for trains only.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky."
- Bill Clinton

Obama explaining why he doesn't like the American way of life and prosperity:

- Barack Hussein Obama

Explaining the reported story of Bill's infidelity with a Washington intern during a 1998 interview:
"The great story here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it is this vast, right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president."
- Hillary Clinton

"I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base."
- Hillary Clinton
Video showed a leisurely landing and greeting with children present.

Obama discussing his loss to Hillary in Kentucky that exposed his lack of knowledge of US geography:
"Senator Clinton, I think, is much better known, coming from a nearby state of Arkansas. So it's not surprising that she would have an advantage in some of those states in the middle."
- Barack Hussein Obama

During a CBS interview, Biden was asked about the spending bill web site:
"You know, I'm embarrassed. Do you know the web site number?"
- Joe Biden
While web sites use URLs that are made up of numbers, they are far too lengthy for anyone to remember and are often shared between different sites; hence the need for domain names, not numbers. Maybe Biden tries to "call" web sites?

Obama addressing congress about American industry:
"I believe the nation that invented the automobile cannot walk away from it."
- Barack Hussein Obama America did not invent the automobile.

Obama claimed that he has saved or created 150,000 jobs in his first 100 days in office and furhter claimed that 600,000 more will be saved or created in the second 100 days. When Joe Biden, who is in charge of accounting for how stimulus money is spent, was asked by a reporter how Obama came up with those numbers:
"I’m sorry I’m not an economist. My background is foreign policy and the constitution. I’m a little above my pay grade here as I try to explain in more detail how they count spinoff effects of actual jobs created."
- Joe Biden
1.8 million jobs were lost during the first 100 days of Obama's administration and unemployment hit a 25-year record high of 9.4% in May. actually, it was 16.4%, if the number of people who have just given up hope of ever finding a job are also counted.

Obama describing his bowling score of 128 to Jay Leno on national TV:
"It's like (pause) it was like Special Olympics, or something."
- Barack Hussein Obama

After a gust of wind blew over a teleprompter during a Biden speech in Colorado:
"What am I gonna tell the president when I tell him his teleprompter is broken? What will he do then?"
- Joe Biden

Obama talking about then senate majority leader Trent Lott's birthday toast to Strum Thurmond:
"It seems to be that we can forgive a 100-year-old senator for some of the indiscretion of his youth; but, what is more difficult to forgive is the current president of the U.S. Senate (Lott) suggesting we had been better off if we had followed a segregationist path in this country after all of the battles and fights for civil rights and all the work that we still have to do. The Republican Party itself has to drive out Trent Lott. If they have to stand for something, they have to stand up and say this is not the person we want representing our party."
- Barack Hussein Obama Obama has not called for his party to give the same treatment to democrat senate majority leader Harry Reid for saying Obama could win the election because he is "light skinned" and "has no Negor dialect.".
