[quote]And one of the interesting things that we don’t talk about enough is[B] the contrast between what’s happened in the United States and what’s happened in a lot of other developing countries, Europe in particular.[/B] It's pretty rare where we have the chance to look at two policy approaches and follow them over several years and see which one worked. And the fact is there are a lot of European countries who followed the prescription that the House Republicans are calling for right now, and not only have they lagged well below where we've gone in terms of growth, in many cases their debt and their deficits have actually gone up because their economy is still effectively in recession. And although we haven’t been growing as fast as we would like, we have consistently outperformed those countries that followed the recipe that the House Republicans are offering right now.[/quote] Source: [URL]http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/nilegardiner/100228232/president-obama-calls-the-united-states-and-europe-developing-countries-in-latest-embarrassing-gaffe/[/URL]

people will probably make jokes about how he wants to turn the US into a "developing country" lol edit: also damn, i just finished reading the entire article, its biased as hell, the writer doesn't even try to hide it.
Freudian slip, anyone?
The President is human. In other news, the earth is round.
All I can really see here is the average Slow News Sunday article.
[QUOTE=Cyan_Husky;41623779]The President is human. In other news, the earth is round.[/QUOTE] Bull crap. Hes a lizard man from another dimension who is apart of the Illuminati. :v:
The US could use some social development though.

How often does this actually happen with Obama compared to other recent US Presidents?
So I'm the only one here that just noticed he called Europe a fucking country?
[QUOTE=Chickens!;41623891]How often does this actually happen with Obama compared to other recent US Presidents?[/QUOTE] Certainly a lot better then Bush :v: Amount of times he has stuttered or otherwise embarrassed himself is amazing
If Europe is a country, then I should be able to freely swim to France without a passport, move there and get a job there.

What an outrage. The only reasonable course of action is to impeach. [editline]28th July 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Mark364;41624310]This is the best slip of the tongue i have seen [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iPaiylUYW0[/media][/QUOTE] Hot damn Parliament, get your shit together.
If George Bush said that, everyone here would be calling him stupid.

[QUOTE=Mark364;41624310]This is the best slip of the tongue i have seen [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iPaiylUYW0[/media][/QUOTE] Holy shit, your parliament looks so lively compared to any footage I've ever seen of ours. It's like comparing a sports stadium to a high school assembly.
Not news but jesus christ choose a better source next time [quote][IMG]http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/files/2013/07/Barack-Obama-New-York-Times-Interview.jpg[/IMG][B] Barack Obama blunders again[/B] As we’ve seen on a number of previous occasions, Barack Obama clearly struggles with his words when he is without his beloved teleprompter. He famously claimed to have visited 57 states in his 2008 campaign, and recently was unable to tell the difference between England and Great Britain. I don’t think any American president, however, has ever referred to the United States, leader of the free world, as a “developing country” before, and nor is Europe a country, as much as the emperors of the European Commission would like the EU to be a superstate.[/quote]
