This isn’t going to go away for the Obama administration. The President’s gaffe…”You didn’t build it, someone else did” is going to remain a major theme from now until the elections on November 6th. From The Hill;
The Republican National Committee (RNC) sent the Democratic National Committee (DNC) a birthday cake on Friday, but the DNC sent it back.
The cake read “you didn’t bake this” over a picture of President Obama. Text written in icing reads, “Happy birthday, Mr. President.” The cake marks the occasion of the president’s birthday, which is Saturday, with a play on the “you didn’t build that” controversy.
“If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,” Obama told a crowd last month. “The point is, when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative but also because we do things together.”
Republicans revolted over the line, calling it proof that Obama lacks belief in hard work and American entrepreneurs, and presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney has referred back to “you didn’t build that” on the presidential campaign trail.
Yahoo News reported the cake as vanilla with vanilla frosting.
Now that there’s funny, I don’t care who you are.
OMG that is hilarious! I don’t think his “you didn’t build this” comment was a gaffe though. Its really how he feels.
