Obama did end up apologizing for it and clearing the air that the term "Polish death camps" was not correct.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12655147780375093626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-20280556815626426242012-05-31T08:42:56.901-05:002012-05-31T08:42:56.901-05:00I saw the headlines here in NYC and it was glaring...I saw the headlines here in NYC and it was glaring to me. But, I am sure that he will make an apology as I can't believe he wouldn't do so after this was pointed out. It is just wrong. He may not have realized his mistake (I would like to think he didn't..) It is nice to see people still writing letters to express themselves to their ELECTED officials. <br /><br />Have fun with the rest of your fun Summer plans...Winniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15926597921523807422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-74254523781076723152012-05-31T07:18:23.784-05:002012-05-31T07:18:23.784-05:00Thank you for pointing that out!

I was pretty upset about this, as well as comments made by acquaintances that I was overreacting, so please forgive the typo and flawed tone in the letter.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12655147780375093626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-15860070029043992312012-05-31T04:57:50.021-05:002012-05-31T04:57:50.021-05:00...and your again voting for "Mrs." Obam......and your again voting for "Mrs." Obama "Much more so".<br />Unfortunately that line was your guffaw and may very well guarantee that your letter will never reach the President. That line underscores to the Administration that he just "misspoke" and this is not a big deal since it will not change your position or your feelings about him and he will not lose your vote.<br />Perhaps you can revise your tone and let him know that you voted for him previous and your support is waning, or better yet, is lost without some form of public apology.<br />(You can vote for him all day long - voting is private and personal) <br />Just don't let him off the hook like that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-63041062835243147032012-05-30T19:50:19.503-05:002012-05-30T19:50:19.503-05:00Well put, I couldn't have expressed it any bet...Well put, I couldn't have expressed it any better. <br /><br />P.S.

He can play nice with the Russians but not say a simple, "sorry." He hurt the Polish people here and in Poland deeply. To brush it off is to show exactly how much he respects the alliance he has and has always had with Poland. He better apologize, for real, not this "misspoke" crap. I would never be so sensitive if it weren't for Martin and he has lived his life trying to set people straight on things just like this. Two steps forward one step back.oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13371993808242884849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-52200779993454681802012-05-30T11:27:54.931-05:002012-05-30T11:27:54.931-05:00I completely agree.

Unacceptable. And this "misspoke" thing is the most frustrating thing of all. The fact that he "misspoke" is the entire PROBLEM. The president of the country can't go around "misspeaking" and think he can use that as an excuse.Dwija {House Unseen}https://www.blogger.com/profile/17887429052179249473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6726401108704027247.post-9198466297922036952012-05-30T10:00:59.846-05:002012-05-30T10:00:59.846-05:00History 101- WWII started when Germany INVADED Pol...History 101- WWII started when Germany INVADED Poland, and the Poles died with their boots on trying to protect their homeland- they didn't roll out the welcome mat and wave the Nazis in with little flags.
