Well, maybe President Obama's is turning into a Christian evangelist and he meant the Bible when he introduced Sonia Sotomayor thusly:

"Of the many responsibilities granted to a president by our Constitution, few are more serious or more consequential than selecting a Supreme Court justice. The members of our highest court are granted life tenure, often serving long after the presidents who appointed them. And they are charged with the vital task of applying principles put to paper more than 20 centuries ago to some of the most difficult questions of our time."

Er, more like 22 decades ago, or to be more accurate, 221 years ago. 20 centuries puts us at 9 AD. Guess TOTUS doesn't do math.

  • ron paul 2012!!!

  • @iHoldeni All I ever hear is him getting bashed. So that's fucking bullshit. The amount of videos propagandizing against everything Obama has ever done far outweighs the positive side. So please, try a little intellectual honesty when you're first commenting. Not politically correct black people's shortcomings? Do you even watch the news ? All ever hear there too is black people getting blamed for all crimes imaginable. So please, make a like an idiot, and shut the fuck up.

  • He is referring to the principals in the bible.

  • @justanotherhuman3 Thank you! It really doesnt matter what he said. If he said 8 centuries ago(magna carta), people would say he was wrong. If he said 2 centuries people would have beefed because some parts of the constitution arent that old. Its about butt hurt republicans that couldnt save their image after GWBs disaster of a presidency.

  • Obombya is the ultimate troll. "It was written like 20 bajillion years ago! GAWD!"

  • i guess i was the only one that realized he meant decades instead of centuries...

  • so funny when he pronounced corps. fucking tard.

  • 20 centuries ago, we didn't HAVE paper...

  • The US Constitution was modeled from the Magna Carta of 1215.. The Magna Carta was modeled off written principles before that.. Therefore the Constitution was modeled off principles of over 20 Centuries ago, or in other words over two thousand yrs. DID YOU GUYS EVER READ A BOOK? Do you even know anything of the 100 year war or why the Magna Carta was written. Do you know why the Constitution was written as a result.. DUMB FUCKS!! IT wasn't A GAFFE, it's way ahead of your dumbass!! READ HISTORY
