Phil gets out his Clue Bat and beats Barry, fugitively figuratively of course, about the head and shoulders concerning our president’s habit of miscommunication. Or rather all of us dimwits lacking the ability to comprehend his magnificent oratory skills. Or something…
When Obama says something, his context is whatever he says it is later. Even if he's being very clear and telling us he is being very clear when he says something. So no matter what he says, if you don't like it, he didn't say it. He meant something else, and if you say he didn't, he will immediately try to correct the interpretation that was given.
Almost as if he is speaking a different language that sounds almost exactly like English and actually makes sense to the listener, but the meanings of the words are just totally different.
(…)
Again, no wonder we took him "out of context" a week or so ago because he was speaking that Non-English English that doesn't mean what it says when he says it, it means what he says it says later. Only it's hard to decide whether he means what he says it says later when he says what he says it said, because he might have to further explain later what he really meant when he said what he said he said he said…
Go read the rest of Phil’s…ah…explanation.
Thanks for clearing that up, Phil. I think.
Definitely worth reading the entire article. Any newspaper with a shred of integrity should be proud to carry this article on its Op-Ed pages - but I'd wager that no newspaper in this country would have the guts to print a piece that so neatly filets the myth of DuhBama's brilliant oratory.

Fugitively?

Correction; figuratively.

"Twas brillig and the slithy toves,
did gyre and gimbal in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
and the mome raths outgrabe."
