LOL, re-read the article and it was about the democratic convention. I'm sure that it was also ghostwritten by that same writer who wrote his inaugural speech. From my article, In composing the high notes of the speech, Obama has leant on Favreau, whom he discovered almost by chance four years ago when the younger man was working on John Kerry's failed presidential bid. "Favs" has since studied Obama's speech patterns and cadences with the intensity of a stalker. He memorised the 2004 speech to the Democratic national convention which first brought Obama into the limelight.

I'm sorry but that article is misleading when my provided article proves that Obama's inaugural speech was written by a guy in a starbucks restaurant.

I am NOT impressed by elected presidents who can't write their own speeches and have to rely on others to do their job.

It's not misleading at all...maybe you have trouble with reading comprehension?

It is, the article said that Obama wrote his inaugural speech. He didn't.

[QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"]I'm pretty sure they aren't looking for foreign skilled workers if there are such!Jandurin
Are you seriously saying that you doubt that non-Americans can be skilled?

No, however the guy I quoted said that skilled workers from other countries can save our economy is wrong. If that was possible then we'd be mass-immigrating them here and voila our economy is fixed.

[QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"][QUOTE="Tjeremiah1988"]heres a fact. Fact is that Obama is good at writing speeches before and during the election. Also, its a fact he doesnt write them all but in every speech including the speech on Tuesday, he was involved in it and help with the draft. Not every word was written by someone else other than Obama. Engrish_Major
LOL and that is based on what? hearsay for the fail.

[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"][QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"] A shining example of your intelligence on the issue of immigration. It's bad to bring in more immigrants when we are in recession, when Americans are losing jobs.

No, no it isn't. Like the whitehouse site says, if there are skilled workers that America needs which they can let in, they should. That is exactly what you need during a recession. If there's a gap in the workforce and an immigrant will happily fill that gap and do that job well, that's great for your economy. People working and earning is exactly what the economy needs. That's why we have immigration in the first place. Do you think the white house is stupid? Do you honestly think during a recession they'll adopt a policy of letting in immigrants by the millions who wont work and wont contribute? Think about it.

No. Microsoft just cut 5000 jobs, I'm pretty sure they aren't looking for foreign skilled workers if there are such! http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aZD9lJuxkzR0&refer=home

Do you think the white house is stupid? Do you honestly think during a recession they'll adopt a policy of letting in immigrants by the millions who wont work and wont contribute?

Yes, visit the south border and meet illegals who are taking our jobs. Doing the work Americans won't mantra is totally untrue. Americans worked at those exact same jobs before the Mexican invasion. I have no problem with qualified legal immigrants however I do have a problem with current Mexican invasion and wholesale legal immigration of unskilled workers.

[QUOTE="zakkro"]What? Inconceivable. A politician who has other people write their speeches? I-I've never heard of such a thing. :x bsman00

It has been a long time since we had a president who was skilled in the arts of speaking and forming his own speeches. The living proof of this story is evidence that Obama is merely a shell who has the ability to memorize speeches.

It also reveals that people who voted for Obama were fools and remain as fools they shall.

I dont get why people hate the man...if your religious i guess i get it...

I dislike him because he has absolutely proven that he has zero experience and knowledge how to do his job. He'll be carried by his cabinet cronies who are doing the job Obama can't. Believe me when Is say this, Obama will be FAR worse than Bush and you just wait and see.

Heck, Obama was already a bad candidate when he sued banks on the behalf of ACORN to force them make subprime loans.

[QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"] A shining example of your intelligence on the issue of immigration. It's bad to bring in more immigrants when we are in recession, when Americans are losing jobs. It is WRONG to bring in more immigrants when the US economy is not doing great and increases the amount of welfare recipients.

It's *wrong* to bring in skilled immigration, when the last time your Country was in recession, skilled immigration pulled you out of it and brought on an era of economic stability? Interesting viewpoint.

You also assume *skilled* immigration means *welfare* recipients? Seriously?

America have all the skilled workers it needs. More immigrants = more people wanting jobs when there are plenty of skilled American labor out of a job.

[QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"]Where we can bring in more foreign-born workers with the skills our economy needs, we should." Jandurin
That sounds suspiciously like a really good idea and something that benefited us greatly in the past. You notice he said "with the skills our economy needs"?

LOL, are you saying that there are workers in other countries can magically fix our economy? WRONG!

[QUOTE="Ultimate-Playa"][QUOTE="noswear"] First of all, I'm not bashing Bush, he was a reasonably good President. But 'playing dumb' is not something anyone is politics would ever, ever do. I'm not saying he's stupid, but you must admit that he made a few embarrasing gaffes throughout his career.

Anyway, you have any proof for anything you just said?

Andrew_Xavier

Have you had seen speeches by Bush made when he was governor of Texas? Also, on the Obama's immigration policy about him wanting more foreign workers when Americans are losing jobs. It's on whitehouse an official website crafted by Obama and his cronies.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/agenda/immigration

"The time to fix our broken immigration system is now… We need stronger enforcement on the border and at the workplace… But for reform to work, we also must respond to what pulls people to America… Where we can reunite families, we should. Where we can bring in more foreign-born workers with the skills our economy needs, we should."

-- Barack Obama, Statement on U.S. Senate Floor
May 23, 2007

HOW AWFUL! Bringing immigrants to a Country built entirely on immigration *crys* They took our jerbs! All we did was massacre the natives when we arrived, it's so unfair.
