Barack Obama mispronounces "Orion" (Asks if he said it right, and no one challenges him- video)

TV show: Cheers. A blonde named Brandee spells her name. Coach looks at a bottle of brandy and says, "You'd think a company like this would know how to spell." The man playing "coach" was acting, trying to appear dumb.

The POTUS is not acting.

Alinsky’s an ass. Ridicule is another form of an ad hominem and ad hominems are not an argument. Scorn, yes, Obama deserves a raft of that. He can’t be shamed since he has no shame however I’d have to admit that one sometimes has to ‘’jump in the mud’’ I suppose. In Obamas case mocking him to Kingdom Come can be an out-let for anger.

[John-Irish]

Good speaking voice? Not on your life! He’s possessed of an maddening monotone drone with an annoying habit of hissing his ‘s’’s that drives me nuts.

[John-Irish]

There there. Calm yourself dear. Yes, the big bad American people are EVER SO MEAN to Barrack! They’ll all be sorry someday when they don’t have Barrack to kick around anymore, you’ll see!

Obama has degrees, but he is not educated. There is a difference. Listen to Obama over time, and it is obvious that he doesn't know or understand history, doesn't have a junior high level grasp of science, and has an understanding of human psychology most kindly described as wishful thinking.

He has no idea, however. His adult life has been spent in the company of people who told him he was wonderful, and now, he believes those lies despite the evidence.

Well, I do think most people pronounce Betelgeuse incorrectly!

to keep in line with the spirit of the thread and the so called master oar ae tohr...

THIS IS THE BEST FOTO OF THE _RESIDENT I HAVE SENE.

(mind if I save a copy?)

I used to live in Lake Orion, MI and he said it the way it was pronounced there.

What a morion.

[SkyDancer]

Sure - I forgot where I got it from ....

[Dryman]

I am certain we will be able to use it in the future.

I want it big enough for a background/wallpaper/screensaver.

(This _resident is such a gutless sniveling weasel.)

I think you can enlarge it with photoshop or MS Paint ... there’s a website that can make murals from your picture. They’ll do it free - you print it out and assemble it. Here’s the site: http://www.blockposters.com/

Well, we have no school records. Chances are he never heard “Orion” pronounced in a classroom. He was probably selling pot or organizing a community - important things like that.

Obama has degrees, but he is not educated... How did Obama ever "earn" his degrees when he clearly has no grasp of History, Economics, Management, Science; he stated an America with "57 States"!!! Where are his transcripts!! Incidentally, top graduates from Harvard Law don't take a first job as a newsletter writer (Obama first job after Harvard Law) although the class goat might land that "career making" gig!

Sort of like the story in which no one dared to tell the emperor that he had no clothes. Except in this case, the clothes had no emperor.

Obama isn't unique in being uneducated despite having degrees (which I suspect were purchased for him, since nothing has come out about his ever being any kind of scholar--he's a BS artist, always has been) but he can do more damage than most degreed/empty-headed.
