Obama hero Saul Alinsky said that ridicule is our most potent weapon so let's have at it. He's supposed to be a genius.

The leftists won’t admit to him doing anything wrong, and the others just want to get out of his way and let him bury himself.

Yet another piece of evidence supporting my “counterintuitive” contention that obama is uneducated—an ignoramus rather than an “intellectual”.

And to think, all these years I was mispronouncing it.

To be fair, given that he spent many years in Chicago, he may have just assumed it’s pronounced like Orion Samuelson’s name.

Who knows...maybe the Zer0 occasionally tuned into “Top of the Morning” in his community organizing days...

Obama has a good speaking voice which makes him sound competent. Just makes it all the more jarring hearing him make this kind of mistake.

Whatever is on the teleprompter, comes out of his mouth. Now we know it’s not fone-et-ik spelling (but may be in the fyoot-cher!)

Politically, Obama and other statists are to Western society what radical Muslims are to it religiously.

I can hardly wait until the sitcoms ridicule him mercilessly. /s

LEAVE BARAK ALONE! He's tired! Don't you know how hard he tried to relax in Hawaii? And he couldn't! YOU try taking only 6 or 7 vacations a year -- especially when they all keep getting interrupted by stupid things like terrorists attacks -- and then try pronouncing big words like ORION!

He’s definitely mispronouncing Orion but it sounded to me that he was asking the crowd if he pronounced Neal’s last name properly.

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.

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.
