Keukasmallies Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 That's the caption I read under the picture of the faux sign language interpreter for POTUS at Mandella's funeral services. Then I got to wondering if they had the caption under the correct picture....?

Wonder if one of these photos will be what POTUS and FLOTUS sends out for Christmas Holiday cards this year. http://beforeitsnews.com/opinion-conservative/2013/12/potus-flotus-go-high-school-at-mandela-funeral-2770758.html Edited December 12, 2013 by Nanker
BringBackFergy Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 The article says that to this day, they still don't know who this guy was and they can't locate him. Well, isn't that reassuring to know....this guy could have been a terrorist and came within three feet of the POTUS. Me thinks the Secret Service is a little concerned with other country's ability to check credentials....or our SS is getting reamed out themselves.
TheMadCap Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I didn't even realize unitl this minute that POTUS and FLOTUS switched seats in the third still! LOL!
Keukasmallies Posted December 12, 2013 Author Posted December 12, 2013 So, I've been rethinking the idea of branding the interpreter as a fake after listening to one sign language expert's comments on the interpreter's actions. The expert said the signs were just nonsense and gibberish and made no sense at all. Maybe, just maybe, he was accurately translating POTUS' comments to those assembled at the ceremony. After all, that appears to be his standard fare when he is addressing us....

Dante Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Saw the thread title and was sure it was about Barry.
Azalin Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I think I know what may have happened.....he was actually signing correctly but had studied one of these: drop your panties sir Arthur, I cannot wait until lunch time...... classic.

\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Thamsanqa Jantjie, 34, who said a schizophrenic fit distracted him from providing proper sign language during the Nelson Mandela memorial service, has a rap sheet that includes charges of murder, rape and kidnapping, according to a report. Many of the charges were later dropped in court because he was mentally unfit to stand trial. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/fake-interpreter-mandela-ceremony-university-school-unknown-article-1.1546627
