How Will
OFA And DNC Spin These Obama Comments?
In The Past Three Months, Barack Obama
Has Made A String Of Comments About America And Americans That Are Surprising
For A U.S. President
Obama Said Americans Have Been “A Little
Bit Lazy.” OBAMA: “But
we’ve been a little bit lazy, I think, over the last couple of decades. We’ve
kind of taken for granted -- well, people will want to come here and we aren’t
out there hungry, selling America and trying to attract new business into
America.”
(President Barack Obama,
Remarks At APE C CEO
Business Summit,
Honolulu, HI, 11/12/11)

Ambition” And “Our Imagination.” OBAMA: "We have lost our ambition, our
imagination, and our willingness to do the things that built the Golden Gate
Bridge..."

Fundraiser, San
Francisco, CA, 10/25/11)
Obama Said Americans Are Not Better Off
Than They Were Four Years Ago. OBAMA: “Well I don’t think they are
better off than they were four years ago. They’re not better off than they
were before Lehman’s collapse, before the financial crisis, before this
extraordinary recession that we’re going through.”(ABC News/Yahoo News’
Live Interview,

Obama Said America Has “Gotten A Little
Soft.” OBAMA: “The way I
think about it is, you know, this is a great, great country that had gotten a
little soft and, you know, we didn't have that same competitive edge that we
needed over the last couple of decades. We need to get back on
track.” (WESH-NBC, 9/29/11)
