It made it on World News with Charles Gibson tonight.

Yep, he screwed up again.............. I actually noticed it when he did it and expected to see flak on it.

He has phoned and apologized to the head of the Special Olympics organization, but that is not the one he has offended the most.

There was no mention of the hurt feelings of all the parents of kids that are physically and mentally affected by the various afflictions that he made fun of on National TV.

First the Vets and now this.....I think he has no chance at a 2nd term now that he has truly revealed himself for what he is, no matter if he actually accomplishes anything worthwhile or not.

The Republicans absolutely must put forth a much greater effort and platform in 2012 than it did in 2008; otherwise, it will be at least four more years of the Obama, Pelosi and Reid madness. Oh! I left out Holder, Dodd, Schumer and Franks - sorry.

Just imagine if a Republican had said that!

As a Veteran AND proud father of a Special Olympics bowler...I doubt my household will be voting for him anytime soon. In my opinion, the left's reaction to Sarah Palin revealed everything I needed to know about him and his minions. Anything said or done since the election has not been a suprise and only further reinforces my perceptions.

To give him credit however, he did manage to get my wife and daughter active in politics, something I had never been able to do in the past. :woohoo

He also single handedly created an unintended "stimulus plan" in the firearms industry! ;-) :mrgreen:

I see no signs of sales tapering off.

Apparently Obama isn't good enough to bowl in the Special Olympics:
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - The top bowler for the Special Olympics looks forward to meeting President Barack Obama in an alley.
"He bowled a 129. I bowl a 300. I could beat that score easily," Michigan's Kolan McConiughey (KO-lahn Mc-KAHNA-he) told The Associated Press in an interview Friday.

I was on a ski trip in California with my friend and his family when this happened. My friend's brother is "special". Seeing the effect of the nation's president's words first hand is kinda sobering. :mad5
