Obama fails again

Not really. He did precisely what Ken Burns asked him to do, which was to read the original "Nicolay copy" (Gettysburg Address | Exhibitions - Library of Congress) of the draft. There are five different drafts of the Gettysburg Address, and Burns had all of them included in his documentary. No one knows which version was actually given at Gettysburg.

The right heralded the omission to make Obama look bad, and did so out of sheer ignorance (not knowing about there being more than one draft) and stupidity (not bothering to even check it out, not even at Ken Burns' project Web site).

I should probably say something like you can't make it up, because, ironically, Ken Burns' project is entitled Learn the Address

Jeebus dude when are you going to stop linking topics from that ridiculous site? The advertisements alone are hilarious and shows they are trying to reach the lowest common denominator.

From Godfather Politics.......lol

Unfortunately, there's no shortage of it, either.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity,
and I'm not sure about the former.

Someone actually views advertisements? What a foreign concept.
