quote:

Obama said he would fundamentally transform the country. Is he a liar?



Bill O'Reilly asked him about that actually:


O’Reilly: OK. I got a letter from Kathy LaMaster, Fresno, Calif. I said I would read one letter from the folks, all right?

Obama: All right.

O’Reilly: "Mr. President, why do you feel it's necessary to fundamentally transform the nation that has afforded you so much opportunity and success?"

Obama: I don't think we have to fundamentally transform the nation.

O’Reilly: But those are your words.

Obama: I think that what we have to do is make sure that here in America, if you work hard, you can get ahead. Bill, you and I benefitted from this incredible country of ours, in part, because there were good jobs out there that paid a good wage, because you had public schools that functioned well, that we could get scholarships if we didn't come from a wealthy family, in order to go to college.

O’Reilly: Right.

Obama: That, you know, if you worked hard, not only did you have a good job, but you also had decent benefits, decent health care...

O’Reilly: They're cutting me off...

Obama: -- and for a lot of folks, we don't have that. We've got to make sure that we're doing everything we can to expand the middle class...

O’Reilly: All right...

Obama: -- and work hard and people who are working hard can get into the middle class.

O’Reilly: I think -- I -- you know, I know you think maybe we haven't been fair, but I think your heart is in the right place.

After eight years of obama it is perfectly understandable how many on the right viewed the defeat of hillary clinton as a watershed moment.

It was a great night for the country.

That answer had nothing to do with him wanting to fundamentally transform the country. That was a canned feel good response.

So you use his words when it suits you and say he's a liar when they don't suit you?

so now we're back to my original comment about drinking the kool aid

the idea that one team is the defender of truth and liberty and the other wants to destroy the country is the lie

I think you have to be intentionally dishonest to think that his response to oreilly even made a lick of sense regarding his transform comment.

Well then you really don't know what words mean.

Obama wanting to "fundamentally transform America" is completely different than the bs he said to O'reilly. None of his answer had anything to do with a transformation. All he talked about was his and Bill's previous good fortune.

you're the one picking and choosing which words you want to accept, then extrapolating your own meaning to the words you're accepting? Even in the face of a direct question when he was asked about those words? And I'm the dishonest one? You're a joke.

Why don’t you just do what they do and whatever they find disturbing or concerning just say Obama trolled them and the tears are tasty?

You still don't get it. It was a nice feel good response but it had nothing to do with a fundamental transformation of America. It was word salad.

No, you don't

If you don't want to accept the response that's fine, but calling someone intentionally dishonest for not interpreting a situation in the same way you do is insane.

Draconian is hurling insults and melting because he still doesn't realize I am not criticizing what Obama said, I am criticizing that he actually sidestepped the question. None of Obama's answer was related to a transformation.
