Barack Obama: graduate of the Joe Biden School of Public Speaking

Billionaires should pay taxes at the same rate as Jews (Poor Barry. The guy just can’t seem to please anybody, these days). This is a mere slip of the lip, however. Obama made a far more genuinely loathsome comment at a fundraiser in California, where he used the tragedy of the fires in Texas to try to score points against Rick Perry for the latter’s opposition to the Cli-Fi hysteria: “You've got a governor whose state is on fire denying climate change.” Yes, and we’ve got a president whose country’s economy is collapsing denying that, three years into his first term, he’s in any way responsible for it (by the way, I share commenter Rebecca’s aversion to Obama’s increasing use of the word “folks” in his speeches; who does he think he is, Will Rogers?)

In other Great Moments in Fail, the White House’s new petition site has wound up posting a call for the repeal of ObamaCare.
