I know, I know—I’ve certainly taken the president to task for his half-truths and untruths. But this morning, I PhotoShopped happened upon a picture that shows he’s a man of his word. First, what he said, as transcribed by James Taranto:

Another way of putting it is, when—you know, I’m busy, Nancy’s busy with our mops cleaning up somebody else’s mess. We don’t want somebody sitting back saying, ‘You’re not holding the mop the right way.’ Why don’t you grab a mop? Why don’t you help clean up? ‘You’re not mopping fast enough. That’s a socialist mop.’ Grab a mop. Let’s get to work.

Now here’s the picture:

As far I can divine, that’s not a socialist mop. And the prex is mopping plenty fast.

Mea culpa, Mr. President.
