Well the White House apologized for the comment. So obviously you are full of shit.
Well duh, the White House under any presidency apologizes when people get offended.
“He was referring to Nazi death camps in German-occupied Poland,” Vietor said. “We regret this misstatement, which should not detract from the clear intention to honor Mr. Karski and those brave Polish citizens who stood on the side of human dignity in the face of tyranny.”
So the whole problem is people in Poland, who don't speak english, are being told Obama said something akin to "Polish run death camps."
No intelligent person would think "Polish death camps" meant anything other than what he meant - which was death camps IN Poland that were full of POLISH people.
Especially considering he was at an event HONORING a Polish person for his acts of bravery against the Nazi's in WWII.
All presidents who are monitored 24/7 will make slip ups. This one seems ridiculously harmless to me (and I have Jewish ancestry so the death camps are rather relavent to my history). Bush was a hell of a lot worse. Who cares? Focus on issues and not bad syntax.
