As for the 57 states remark, you know damn well that it was a slip of the tongue. The fact that you're still hung up on that suggests that you can't point to any gaffes he has made since then. And that was 2 years ago.

And that was 2 years ago. ********************************************************* When Obama misspeaks it is a slip of the tongue. When Bush misspeaks he is an idiot. Admittedly President Bush made a lot of misspeaks, but he was President for eight years. Obama will only have four years to rack them up. That is objectivity.

By this point in his administration, Bush had made dozens. And, he was unable to speak intelligently about any subject. |
