President Discusses Job Training and the Economy in Ohio
Did Anyone else see the clips they aired on my local news stations last night? He was saying this part:
I fully recognize, in Ohio there are still troubled times. The manufacturing here is sluggish at best, and, therefore, people are looking for work.

The verbiage isn't that bad on its face, but his delivery made it appear that he was either: 1) Talking to fourth graders, or 2) A man with a fourth grade education. Especially that second sentence, and the non-verbal gestures he used as if he was trying to explain something he thought the audience might not grasp.

Just curious...

Ohio has been in a slump ever since the steel industry died.

Parts of Ohio didn't even see the last "bubble".

Parts of Ohio are intense bastions of "creation science" and religious intolerance.

Parts of Ohio think that atheists are communists.

Parts of Ohio think that when a "boy from the mill" shows up with a new minivan, there must be drug money involved, even if the 'boy from the mill" is a PI at Bell Labs in Research ...

I wonder why the President used this kind of explaination? Perhaps it wasn't a blunder?
 
Man, my state is sounding better and better. I guess I should say something positive about it.

Larry Flynt, Jerry Springer and the Wright Brothers are/were from here. So thanks to Ohio, we have obscenity laws, the worst show on television, and a terrorist weapon.

Err, wait a minute.......
