I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because uh some people out there in our nation don't have maps and uh I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and the Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S. or should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for.

So you're saying your son knows as much about foreign policy as McCain?

Obama's campaigned in 47 states so far. He made a mistake, whereas saying Iran is training Al-Qaeda is an outright falsehood designed to scare the "OMG Muslims" demographic. If it was a slip of the tongue, he wouldn't have made that mistake multiple times already.

No, I'm just acknowledging the effectiveness of soundbites in an election. You do as well, otherwise you would be be wary of the effect McCains slip up has on the "OMG Muslims" voting demographic. You see, that onme helps win an election. On the other hand Obama offers up a soundbite that screams "just another dumb minority" to the racist voting demographic.

I'm not saying it's right. I'm just saying that it is what it is. Don't be mad though. You gut us on that "No New Taxes" thing back in 92.

Payback is quite the bitch.

So are the Republicans going to run against Obama on the "he's an elitist egghead" idiocy or on the "he's as stupid as Bush and McCain" argument?

Looked to me like an attempt at humor rather than a slip of the tongue or anything else...

OMG!! wat an Rtart!

C'mon man, your a presidential candidate. Saying we have 57 states in the union is like declaring the end of major combat operations in Iraq.

... well.. maybe not.

As Bush has always been quick to point out, he's suffered more during this war than anyone else.
