Wha..what??

At least those in the audience at the DNC event know what's up.

Transcript from White House on President remarks at a DNC event:

"THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. Thank you, everybody. Thank you. (Applause.) Thank you, everybody. Please have a seat, have a seat.

It is wonderful to see all of you. I've got a lot of friends in the room here. People who knew me before anybody could pronounce my name. (Laughter.) People who knew me before I had gray hair. (Laughter.) It is wonderful to see those of you who’ve been friends for a long time, and it’s wonderful to see new friends here as well.

What I'd like to do is to make some very brief remarks at the top and then have a chance to take a few questions, because that will give us a chance to http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifhave a dialogue, and you might have some suggestion that we haven’t thought of. "

blah, blah, blah... but then this:

"As a consequence of that swift, decisive, and sometimes difficult period, we were able to take an economy that was shrinking by about 6 percent and create an economy that is now growing, and has grown steadily now over many consecutive quarters. Over the last 15 months we’ve created over 2.1 million private sector jobs. (Laughter.) "

My repeat from the OFFICIAL White House transcript: "(Laughter.)"
