I learned some German once and never used it. I would like to learn Spanish, great, but I have no need and would likely not use it enough to be worth the time to do it. Members of my family know some, but it isn't of monumental importance.
It's a given that you will attack Obama no matter what he says, for things that have nothing to do with what he actually said. Right?
You should note that Obama said
nothing about your old ass learning another language.

He implied we had gone wrong, cyclops, he did imply I should know it. Not that I care. And I have complimented Obama on a few things, maybe you missed it.
And I am just like anyone else, I interpret what politicians say, not only explicitly, but by innuendo they also send messages by what they say. Maybe you can't see it or maybe you do not interpret it the same, but it is pretty easy to understand that it happens, so I don't think you can deny it.
By the way, I am becoming more convinced that Obama is going to be a very divisive leader, not what we need right now, but given current politics, I don't know of anyone that can bring things together very well, but he sure isn't the answer.
