In other words, he said what he really thought.

I've read what he actually said in context, and it really doesn't make me feel all that much better about it.

Kinda like the way RMoney likes 'to fire people'?

Out-of-context quotes can be a grumble, eh?

I looked around several grammar sites for proper use of pronouns.  Relative pronouns (such as "that") are used to tie phrases and clauses together.  I didn't see any examples of relative pronouns crossing to another sentence.  The antecedent for the relative pronoun "that" (in "you didn't build that") really should be in the same sentence.

President Obama is a lawyer.  I have always thought that lawyers were trained to use language clearly, or at least to their benefit.  That is obviously not the case here. (Intentional ambiguity.)

When did POTUS Obama start taking his talking points from crazy Uncle Joe? 

Ol' Uncle Joe at it again.

Quote
“Everyone knows, everyone in this room knows that President Obama has increased the benefits available to people on Medicare by the action he took,” Biden said. “You are now able to go get a wellness exam, and guys, if you conclude you need a colonoscopy because of the feeling you had or you need a breast health examination, you don’t have to pay a co-pay for that.”

That "feeling" I am having is largely from hearing Mr. High IQ running his mouth again. But I guess coming from a guy who's head is up his @ss so long we should expect he knows a thing or two about colons...
