Poll: What was the Obamateurism of the Week?

Every week about this time, votes start spiking up for the Obamateurism of the Week!  That’s no coincidence, of course — by this time of the week, Obama has our confidence in tatters.  Just remember that we have your back on whatever you choose, even if you’re one of those eeeeeevil corporate jet owners that’s to blame for the deficit, thanks to tax breaks that Obama’s tax guru lobbies to extend.

Got an Obamateurism of the Day? If you see a foul-up by Barack Obama, e-mail it to me at [email protected] with the quote and the link to the Obamateurism. I’ll post the best Obamateurisms on a daily basis, depending on how many I receive. Include a link to your blog, and I’ll give some link love as well.
