Hey there, genius (that would be cpLj), have you been contacted by TBone (Pickens, not the guy on here) for your contribution to offset the $30million hickey you fagroamericans in Stoolwater just took on the life insurance premiums for old, large donors?

All anyone's gotta do is wait - you'll take care of yourselves. Always have, always will. Originally Posted by Randy4Candy

As far as 57 states went - I always assumed he meant to say 47 and was talking about the continental US but I give people the benefit of the doubt even if I don't like them all that much.

Here are a few more:




Obama believes "Austrian" is the language spoken in Austria.

"In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died - an entire town destroyed." - 2007 campaign speech citing a Kansas tornado that killed 12 people.

"On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in the audience here today -- our sense of patriotism is particularly strong."

"We’re the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad" [To where?]

"Abraham-Come-Lately Lincoln was the founder of the Republican Party" [Lincoln wasn't a founder of the Republican Party]


"UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? It's the Post Office that's always having problems." [Obama’s argument for Obamacare]

"The reforms we seek would bring greater competition, choice, savings and inefficiencies to our health care system."

"What I was suggesting -- you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith."

"The Cambridge police acted stupidly."

"One such translator was an American of Haitian descent, representative of the extraordinary work that our men and women in uniform do all around the world -- Navy Corpse-Man Christian Brossard."

Where again is “Cinco de Quatro” (4 May, 2009) celebrated?

Obama is a “Constitutional” lawyer who cannot remember the preamble to The Declaration of Independence:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. [Long Pause: endowed by their Creator omitted] Endowed with certain inalienable [sic: unalienable] rights: life and liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” September 15, 2010, Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute speech

“We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, endowed [by their Creator omitted] with certain inalienable [sic: unalienable] rights: life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That’s what makes us unique.” September 22, 2010, New York fundraiser Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC)

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that each of us are endowed [by their Creator omitted] with certain inalienable [sic: unalienable] rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee October 18, 2010.




And his most recent reference regarding President Hayes:




President Odumbo's latest incident of historical illiteracy

In mocking the GOP, Odumbo cited an anecdote about President Hayes [BTW, General Hayes was a Civil War veteran who actively engaged in the fight against slavery] in which, upon using the telephone for the first time, Hayes 'purportedly'* said, “It’s a great invention, but who would ever want to use one?”

“That’s why he’s not on Mount Rushmore,” Odumbo said. “He’s explaining why we can’t do something instead of why we can do something.”

But Nan Card, curator of manuscripts at the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center in Ohio, told TPM that the nation’s 19th president was being unfairly tagged as a Luddite.

“Hayes really was the opposite,” she said. “Hayes had the first telephone in the White House. He also had the first typewriter in the White House. Thomas Edison came to the White House as well and displayed the phonograph. Photographing people who came to the White House and visited at dinners and receptions was also very important to him.”

*While often cited, Card said Odumbo’s cited quote had never been confirmed by contemporary sources and is likely apocryphal. A contemporary newspaper account of his first experience with telephone in 1877 from the Providence Journal records a smiling Hayes repeatedly responding to the voice on the other line with the phrase, “That is wonderful.”

. . . . There's more after that—and keep in mind, this isn't Odumbo displaying his ignorance in off-the-cuff remarks. This was from a prepared speechwhich means that a truckload of people reviewed it, edited it, and approved it. It's just that no one bothered to fact-check it.

Yes, like I said. I always assumed he meant to say 47 with one to go making it 48 - aka the continental US.

And really, do you want to go into stupid shit presidents say? I could overload the database with Bush quotes.

We all know Bush is stupid, but he isn't President anymore. And just because Bush was stupid and dangerous doesn't mean the Democrats get to elect a stupid and dangerous President just to get even. That doesn't even make sense. I have an idea. Why don't we elect someone who ISN"T stupid and dangerous, regardless of which party s/he belongs to?
