Of course, Walsh is correct. But Obama isn’t speaking to rational people when he gives his anti-business/free-market harangues. He’s talking to the millions of Americans who think wealth simply exists, and the rich people got to the pile of wealth before the rest of us. The Democrat Party is mostly composed of people who are jealous of the success of others. That is the element Obama was speaking to. The ignorati.

I'm glad the author terms this a "gaffe", in other words, not a gaffe.

Obama, by his own words, has revealed to all who will listen who he is and where he wants to take the country.

... a sharp line of demarcation between a party that stands for collectivism and one that not only celebrates the individual but also gets out of his way.

A perfect description of the colossal difference between the parties.

There’s a third alternative worth considering: conservatives who’d rather have an Obama 2nd term.

When I first read 0bama’s comment I thought he meant that business was built on the backs of the workers, after all he is a Marxist.

Even Hussein’s sycophants are worried that this is his Holiness’ “Read my lips” moment.

FU Hussein, and the Hussein Heads you rode in on!

I saw one devout Hussein Head imbecile post Hussein’s rant against business word for word and say, “See, it’s obvious he was referring to roads and bridges, not business!”

It’s become the religion of Hussein, who is perfect, can do no wrong and is above reproach.

Hallelujhah — Heil Hussein!

Someone should do a music video called “You didn’t build that” maybe using a Hussein Head singer’s work like “We Didn’t Start the Fire”....

The hilarious thing is that it is money extracted from the small businesses that built the roads and bridges anyway

Anyone here on FR remember the Hurst 4 Speed Shifter?

George Hurst created that in his one car garage in Pennsylvania with long hours of tinkering to perfect it.

He created a million dollar business.

I am pretty darn sure he didn’t get any help from the Federal Government.
