Basically, it just shows that he is a horrible speaker when he is improvising. No different than Bush when he stutters.

That makes absolutely no sense because they are talking about accusations of Obama being Muslim, not what his faith actually is. After he made that statement he was trying to explain what he meant with a nice big smile because he knows he just put his foot in his mouth. I wasn't going to vote for him anyways so it doesn't change my opinion of him. I already know what he is and I don't want him as President.
“I don’t think that when you look at what is being promulgated on Fox News, let’s say, and Republican commentators who are closely allied to these folks,†Mr Obama responded, and Mr. Stephanopoulos interrupted: “But John McCain said that’s wrong.†Mr. Obama noted that when Republican vice presidential nominee Gov. Sarah Palin “was forced†to talk about her pregnant 17-year-old daughter, he issued a forceful statement to reporters that the line of inquiry was “off limits.†But he said the McCain campaign tried to tie him to “liberal blogs that support Obama†and are “attacking Governor Palin.†“Let’s not play games,†he said. “What I was suggesting — you’re absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith. And you’re absolutely right that that has not come.†Mr. Stephanopoulos interrupted with, “Christian faith.†“My Christian faith,†Mr. Obama said quickly. “Well, what I’m saying is that he hasn’t suggested that I’m a Muslim. And I think that his campaign’s upper echelons have not, either. What I think is fair to say is that, coming out of the Republican camp, there have been efforts to suggest that perhaps I’m not who I say I am when it comes to my faith — something which I find deeply offensive, and that has been going on for a pretty long time.â€

Even if it was a slip of the tongue or taken out of context, damage done

I agree, I think it was more slip of the tongue than a statement that was taken out of context. We all know he claims to be Christian, but he has had some very strong connections to extreme Muslim activist's. I could honestly care less if he was a Muslim, not all are bad.

D'oh! Not another stolen speech!
It's like these guys just can't help themselves. Luckily, I'm here to save his campaign. From this day forward, The One is to stick to the following script, with no exceptions: "Bush, Bush, Bushity Busher Bush. Eight years, Bush, Halliburton, Bush. Cheney Bush Bush, jobs, wealthy, Bush. Bush Bush Bushity Bush Bush." You're welcome, Senator.

Good idea, now McCain has to continue keeping to his.
"My friends," Iraq, drill, my friends, surge, drill, Iraq, iraq, surge, drill. Opps almost forgot, and Sarah isn't she great? great, sarah, drill, drill, drill. OMG! is that a freudian slip there? |
