Fascinating article. What’s striking is the pro-Obama people–Mayhill, Huffington, Cooper–who allowed the Obama quotes to reach the public, and the overall atmosphere of wealth around the quote from the “Billionaire’s Row” neighborhood in San Francisco where Obama gave the talk to the huge yacht owned by billionaire, David Geffen, where Huffington stayed while making the decisions about running the quote.
As much as Obama, Huffington et al may wish to blame others for the “distorting” the quote, the real problem is that Obama and his supporters are tone-deaf to how bad that quote sounds outside the upscale liberal world in which Obama voiced the quote and his supporters passed it on.
