--For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.--

"I apologize, from the bottom of my heart to the heart of my bottom" - Barack Hussein Obama Jr.

He immediately realized he made a mistake, he later told a reporter.

I guess that depends on what the defintion of immediately is. Not quite immediately enough to say something off the cuff while still at the podium. Something genuine that expresses his true thoughts and feelings. Not that immediately.

Isn't this Obama's first term? So he can say anything he wants. Gotta catch some of his rhetoric JUST prior to us rumbling to Iraq.

After all, it was the platform of the Dem party to get rid of Saddam one way or another as Bubba said. Hillary stated the Dem policy on a Russert interview.....as if to say: "Hey, it was our idea to go after Saddam."

In their universe, "we got Saddam, he's dead, now we're just wasting our time in Iraq". The left might change their tune from day to day, but they've always seen Iraq as a diversion.

If he immediately realized it ... he would have corrected himself right away and not have waited till later

If he immediately realized it, he shouldn't have said it in the first place. He's no leader. Leader's don't go around apologizing to everybody.

But...but...he's so clean and articulate!

I know??? He's not filthy, ugly, illiterate, and uneducated like all those other African-Americans who made it to the mainstream before him.... /s/ Joe Biden

I saw his speech on Saturday as well, and he brought nothing new to the table. All he is, is a successful black liberal living in the glory days of liberalism, pandering to unions, the failed black communities in this country run by liberals, and painting a picture of Us vs. Them doom-and-gloom in the "Land Of Lincoln". If it weren't for white guys like Lincoln, and Republicans of the 1960's he'd still be enslaved and having to go to the restaurant labeled "For Colored Only". If that's their idea of "glory days", I want no part in it. Obama is as slick as Bubba ever was, and just as evil.

He is articulate...he said exactly what he meant.
