Showing Original Post only (View all)Sununu: 'I Wish This President Would Learn How To Be An American' [View all]
http://hampton-northhampton.patch.com/articles/sununu-i-wish-this-president-would-learn-how-to-be-an-american<snip>
Former New Hampshire Gov. John H. Sununu, a prominent surrogate for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, accused President Obama of a failure to understand how the economy works.
After references to Chicago's notorious past politicians, Sununu then blasted Obama:
"I wish this president would learn how to be an American."
Sununu, a former Salem resident who now lives in Hampton Falls, was speaking on a conference call with reporters. The first question from reporters asked that he clarify what he meant when he suggested Obama is somehow un-American.
Sununu said, what he was getting at, is that, "The president has to learn the American formula for creating business. The American formula for creating business is not to have government create business."

Yes, because we wouldn't want a Chief Executive with a broader perspective now, would we?

Offshoring jobs and investing all your money in foreign banks is now as American as apple pie

And the guy who killed far more jobs than he created does understand? Get real, Sununu.

I believe "asshole" would be considered excessively scatological. Go with "motherfucker" instead.

"...a real American." Hearkens back to "He's an African born Muslim suspicious for being black."

Yep. You knew they were going to try to tie it into their sacred cows.

Strange - I was just wishing that Sununu would learn how to be a decent human being
