WARSAW, Poland — Poles are expressing outrage at President Barack Obama for referring to "Polish death camps" during a ceremony honoring a World War II hero but some say they hope the blunder will help clarify the sensitive issue to the world. The phrasing is considered hugely offensive in Poland, where Nazi Germany murdered Poles, Jews and others in death camps during World War II. Poles were considered an inferior race by Hitler and had no role in running the camps. http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/news-general/20120530/EU.Poland.Obama/?cid=hero_media |

Oh, it's not his fault, blame it on the teleprompter he was reading from. |

No worse than Gerald Ford's remark about Poland. Maybe US presidents should stay away from there. |

A president who had character would have apologized but we don't have such a president right now. He will apologize for our country when it wasn't needed but not for himself when it is really needed. He will lose a lot of Polish votes I imagine some of those that he had not already lost for his going toe to toe with the Catholic leaders. Most Polish people I know are Catholic. He certainly is not the brightest president we have ever had either it could have been from all that pot he smoked in high school and college. |
