"No. There is no basis for believing that the Moon is made of cheese - as far as I know."
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 09:34 AM by Apollo11
Now the same sentence, as translated by certain Obama supporters here on DU:

"The Moon is probably made of cheese. I wouldn't be surprised if that turned out to be the case. Maybe we should send a team up there to find out what type of cheese it is made out of?"



Hey - did someone order a pizza???? :eyes:

3. If someone actually said
"No. There is no basis for believing that the Moon is made of cheese - as far as I know.", they would be relentlessly ridiculed for leaving open the possibility that the moon is made of cheese. In fact its level of absurdity makes it worse to use "as far as I know" in that context.

Have you ever been to the center of Barack Obama's belief system?

8. And I have to personally go to the moon
to know its not made of cheese? Alrighty then. The only issue I take with Clinton's answer is its a "politician's answer". It was if she was worried that if one day it was found out that Obama was in fact a Muslim that she did not want to be on record saying that he was not. Like a reporter would come to her saying "But you said he was not a Muslim, how can the American people trust you now?" All Clinton needed to say was "Of course he isn't a Muslim, he has said so". The "not to my recollection" type of answer just sounds bizarre.

4. Ah, the third stupid knockoff of this joke
I've seen in the last hour.

Get over it - it's not her job to fight Obama's battles. Her answer was fine. She was asked if she believed he was a Muslim, and she said no at least 5 times.

7. I Don't Get It
How can you divine anybody's belief system with one hundred percent certainty?

That's a question for theologians and not politicians...

It seems that the lunar map at http://moon.google.com has removed the funny bit when you zoom in using their moon map. Oh, well. :thumbsdown:
