“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Obama mixes metaphors in calling himself the Gipper

In Obama's farewell to hapless oaf Robert Gibbs, he refers to himself as the Gipper.....



First of all, it's "win one for the Gipper" and "take one for the team", not take one for the Gipper....that makes no sense.

Still, it seems oddly coincidental that the relentless media comparisons of Obama to Ronald Reagan(the Gipper) would precede so closely this gaffe by the President. It's as if Obama himself is now advancing the absurd notion that he's a centrist bridge-builder by calling himself the Gipper.
