President Obama has a "that" problem...


You didn't build "those" - not that.

"That" act of terror - you know, the one he was referring to twice in two days? But because he didn't say "that," "those" Republicans think he didn't mean "that" act of terror. It must have been some other act of terror, like, I don't know - Bin Laden's act of terror?

(Grammatically, "that" is a relative pronoun, which explains why the GOP keeps misunderstanding the President. They just can't relate. (too tired for a good one - trying to make fun of GOP spin )

and double-checked my usage books.

That was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek.

I guess I messed up that.
