oh eff you obama!! you don't know the first thing about fencing!! And did he not pay attention to what happened in athens with the usa winning a bronze and a gold? gah! I bet if he remembered that he said this now he'd feel like an idiot seeing how many medals the usa team members brought home!
I'm happy that he even mentioned fencing! It's a rare thing to here nowadays in the news or anywhere.....GO FENCING!!

well.... I don't really think he's writing off the sport, he's just saying america isn't the best at it in the world.
