Obama, the One we've all been waiting for, the One who will heal the planet, the Messiah, while publicly praying that he will no longer be criticized failed to pronounce a job position he as Commander in Chief presides over. The teleprompter must not be very helpful with pronunciation. But we all know the president doesn't know a damn thing about national defense. I'll bet this dupe actually believed for a second that the Navy has a "corpseman" position. Yeah, that must be the guy who picks up all the dead bodies right?

Funny how some people can accuse the military of "air raiding women and children" out of one side of their mouth and then praise Navy "corpseman" for the outstanding job they do out of the other, all the while escalating a war they condemned others as "war criminals" for being involved with.

Someone from the "previous administration" must have tampered with the teleprompter.

BTW, for those who don't know, the word is pronounced, "core-man" and they are the crucial medical personnel who are the first in to battle with the Marine "corpse". Half sailor, half Marine and the best medics in the military. The commander in chief could at least give them the dignity of pronouncing their name right.

  • Well, I am an actual US Navy FMF Corpsman, I've fought side by side with the Marines in Afghanistan, been shot at, and watch my Marines get shot, I take pride in being a Corpsman. If this guy is going to be our "leader" and our "boss" maybe he should do a little research on "his" troops. I haven't worked this hard for my "leader" to not even know how to pronounce what I am. Maybe I'll make the mistake and call him Osama...

  • How many the fuck people know how to pronounce that? I didn't even know it wasn't pronounced that way. At least he can pronounce words a 4 year old would know.

see all

  • @VidMasterZ Looks like you don't have high standards for your presidents. Looks like your requirements for a presidential vocabulary are equivalent to that of a four year old. You're part of the reason why America is falling behind in intelligence.

  • WHAT A FUCKING STUPID

  • Obama never passes up an opportunity to show what an over educated Idiot he is.

  • Ladies and Gentlemen, your Commander in Chief.

  • @KelseyWolf thanks you for making sense, i dont support obama but come on people he's only human.

  • @KelseyWolf I can excuse "shoulder" for "soldier", because my tongue slips up often and I do it all the time. But "corpsman" and "corpse man" sound so radically different, and he mispronounced them several times, while speaking clearly and very deliberately. It is therefore obvious that he does not know how to pronounce "corpsman".

  • Obama just revealed the US Military's Secret Zombie Army! WE DEMAND ZOMBIE TRUTH!

  • I understand a lot of people are upset he mispronounced corpsman, but even I at times say it wrong and even say shoulder instead of soldier. People get tongue-tied or just mispronounce and end up kicking themselves afterwards. I think it's a bit ridiculous to expect every word to be perfect when we're all imperfect even in speech.

  • @default013 "liberals just don't understand English."

    Apparently, you don't understand critical thinking or you wouldn't be so prone to commit the false dilemma fallacy. I haven't made a single statement about my political affiliation, but you're eager to apply labels.

    "If you don't understand, I can't help you with that one."

    Excuse me for not understanding your incomprehensible jumble of words.
