Why is it a "gaffe"?

A gaffe is a social error.

Didn't he say what he meant?

Has he retreated from his position?

Seems like it was a clear expression of his belief.

Stupid and naive it may be, but I think he really feels that way.

I believe Charles operates on the assumption that Obama has no core beliefs, just an appetite for power. Therefore he talked with a mouthful.

He has tap danced around his original statement since the debate. The problem is he was preaching to the choir. He know that was the answer that the kook fringe wanted to hear. The Hildabeast was smart enough to know that Obama’s answer came across as pathetically naive to the rest of the country and pounced on the softball that Obama served up.

You're right that this is not a "gaff." To the extent that Obama HAS any well-thought-out beliefs, he does believe that the President of the United States should tumble right into sit-down meetings with every tin-pot, murderous, trouble-making thug on the planet. And that makes him a dangerous man anywhere near the White House, including a heartbeat away as Vice President.

Well then, that's the point. He's obviously not politically astute enough to be President.
