Obama: Puerto Rico Isn't It Porta Rica

Near the end of yesterday’s radio show, Beck and his co-hosts panned Obama’s speech in Puerto Rico during a quick state visit. While there, Obama chose to tun on a Spanish accent whenever he said the name Puerto Rico. Beck and his team labeled it pandering to the crowd.

During a segment on his “Daily Show,” Stewart also blasted the president’s speech and his use of the accent. An on-screen graphic even labeled it a “P.R. stunt.” But Stewart went further and noticed something else: while the president started out with the accent, by the end of the speech, he had dropped it.

7 Hours on a plane to do this 4 hour publicity stunt, lapping for votes. Campaign not going well.
