Obama: 'Everybody's Getting a Fair Share' {The Mask Slips.}

In President Obama's closing statement at last night's debate, he seemed to make a remarkable slip. "All those things are designed to make sure that the American people, their genius, their grit, their determination, is -- is channeled and -- and they have an opportunity to succeed. And everybody's getting a fair shot. And everybody's getting a fair share," Obama said, before quickly correcting himself and adding.

"[E]verybody's doing a fair share, and everybody's playing by the same rules,"

Despite Obama's hesitating and defensively constrained performance - adapted to guard against his mask slipping and revealing the angry, divisive and race baiting radical seen in his recently exposed 2006 Hampton speech video - that mask of the agreeable, unifying and "post-racial" moderate did slip briefly, for one word.

Don't ignore or minimize the brief and so well guarded glimpses under the Obama mask. That mask, created and maintained by legions of loyalists in politics, unions, media and countless front organizations, has been formidable enough to win Obama his first term. Give Obama a second term and he'll never appear "defensive" again when the mask will come off - too late to do anything about it.

I caught that immediately. He’s such a f’n poser.

To tell you the truth, Bambi’s closing statement was so muddled and rambling I wasn’t even paying attention.

Romney’s, by comparison, was crisp and coherent.

Thanks for pointing this out; I never would have known! :-)

Old, entrenched beliefs die hard. Zer0 is a commie through and through.

I caught it too. Glad someone in the media did also. The One caught himself and rephrased, but it was a Freudian slip if I ever saw one about his goal of redistribution.

He sounded like a guy from “1984” in charge of the chocolate rations...”everyone gets one square, because that’s what’s fair... see you next month”
