Obama Failure Thread Part IV

No constructive comment, so you attack the poster. Guess that's par for the course though. Still haven't elaborated on why you thought it ironic, but don't worry about it. We all know why.

Look, people are talking about it, CNN thought it noteworthy. I haven't uttered a single comment of personal opinion on the matter. But you don't need to post drive-by insults just because you don't also think it noteworthy. Address the matter directly or ignore it.

 

This thread is reminding me of some of the Meryl Streep/Kevin Kline arguments in Sophie's Choice.

 

Your post did not address the matter at all. It was just a snide comment about the poster.

 

You posted a video without comment. You don't exactly have a leg to stand on here.

 

A comment was unneccessary, as it was the subject of discussion. Others figured out how to address the matter directly without attacking the poster.

 

I'm still not seeing why you feel like you are under attack. If Obama had said "German" instead of "Polish," would you have posted the video? If not, why not? If so, why?

 

this is a non-story, and you guys are having a non-argument.

 

If he said German, it wouldn't be on the news.

 

You were asked to elaborate on why you thought it ironic.

 

Then why is yossarian's comment worthy of following up on? Because it implies the exact same thing as would have been implied had the president been more clear. The more you post, the more ironic you render the post yoss called ironic in the first place.

 

But that will be forgiven if he gives birth to a future USMNTer.

 

If he gives birth to a central defender who can hang with Brazil, he'll get a tickertape parade.

 

Who does?

 

you have the patience of Job...

 

If I was German, it "might" be ironic. But that's something you'll never have any way of knowing. So without that key detail, it's not really ironic. And for argument's sake, let's say I am indeed German. Why would it be surprising for a person of German nationality/heritage to defend the Poles? Unless you assume that modern day Germans would not defend Poles today. If you do assume that, you would have to explain the logic behind that assumption. Plenty of Americans defend Mexicans, and we have long and bitter military history with them. I personally don't find any of that ironic.
