What Obama Didn’t Say
Market Watch had the text of Obama’s acceptance speech online even before he started spewing. In part:
That’s the promise of America - the idea that we are responsible for ourselves, but that we also rise or fall as one nation; the fundamental belief that I am my brother’s keeper; I am my sister’s keeper.
He left out a couple words there. What he meant was this:
That’s the promise of America - the idea that we are responsible for ourselves, but that we also rise or fall as one nation; the fundamental belief that I am my brother’s keeper; I am my sister’s keeper, or else.
Obama would be your keeper, and compel you to be your neighbor’s keeper, even if it fucking kills you.
