President Obama's foreign policy team might want to think up some new compliments for global allies.
A Danish broadcaster has found that Obama uses versions of a particular boxing phrase -- punching above one's weight -- with an awful lot of leaders from smaller countries, reports BuzzFeed.

This is a trick used in hypnosis/NLP. It is to re-encforce what ever is being said as a fact/the truth. Many conspiracy videos do the same thing, infact, if you're watching anything, look out for stuff like this. That's when you know you're being "brainwashed" to think a certain way. Do i remember reading something about Obama being a trained hypnotist?
Also, the colour purple, note, news readers often have purple ties on, or there is something purple on them. Not all of them, but those who know how to make people listen will do this. Very old trick. Purple calms you. next tiem you watch the news, count the purple tiesedit on 23/3/2012 by Acidtastic because: (no reason given)

True on that...but Obama is more to blame than most due to the fact he seems to do little BUT read speeches others wrote. It's a rare rare moment he's speaking and doesn't take a teleprompter feet from his face (even in grade school appearances.. c'mon ) and when he does speak ad-lib, he sounds like a man with something below High School understanding of what he's supposed to be in charge of and on top of.
I find it amusing...but also deeply saddening..that he not only fails to break from the scripts he has written for him when leaders personally come to see him, but that his speech writers are so shallow and weak for creativity that they can't even turn out creative copy for the Boss to parrot.
I don't think ANY President has written their own speeches since Reagan..and HE was only said to have written a couple and just heavily noted and edited most others. Now? Heck....It's all about delivery, charisma and manipu.....err.....playing to the audience. Who cares what he actually says because he apparently can't be bothered.edit on 23-3-2012 by Wrabbit2000 because: typo
