Obama poked fun at John Edwards and Hillary Clinton for their response to the “what is your weakness” question at the MSNBC debate. Obama said that he answered the question as an “ordinary person.”
"Folks, they don't tell you what they mean!" exclaimed Obama.
“I thought that they meant 'what’s your biggest weakness?!' So I said 'well you know I don’t handle paper that well, you know, my desk is a mess, I need somebody to help me file and stuff all the time.'”
“So the other two they say well my biggest weakness is 'I'm just too passionate about helping poor people.' I am just too impatient to bring about change in America.'”
Obama joked, “If I had gone last I would have known what the game was. I could have said 'well you know I like to help old ladies across the street. Sometimes they don’t want to be helped. It’s terrible.'”
He then hit Hillary on her support for the odious credit card bankruptcy bill:
“She explains, 'well, sort of, I don't know, here's why I did this.' And then she says 'I voted for it but I was glad to see that it didn’t pass.' What does that mean? No seriously, what does that mean? If you didn’t want to see it passed, then you can vote against it.”
Barack, Barack, Barack, have you learned anything since you came to Washington? A Democrat doesn't just go out and vote against that which they oppose. You vote for it, deposit the check, and then go out and rail against The Man till you're blue in the face. That's how a real Senate Democrat does it.
