Funny how the Right can't even get their digs at Obama's misstatements correct. Obama actually implied there were 60 states, said he'd been to 57 and had 1 more to go and wasn't going to Alaska and Hawaii, so it was never "all" 57 states.

In other words, easy to see how "fifty" instead of "forty" came out his mouth.

Yet the Right bumbles the words from the guy they call Obumbler.

Honest mistake. Anyone can make them. For example, the poster starting this post made an honest mistake. Well, maybe just a mistake...

All right, it was a stupid mistake...

I think there is a former Bachmann staffer out looking for a new job today.

You know, this is pretty basic stuff like in if you are as old as Bachmann and myself, you actually remember the day Elvis died and if not the date, then at least the month. It's not like his birthdate and death date are close to make that mistake. Now is it important in the grand scheme of things? No, it is not but who the heck did that very basic research on her staff? Is it the same "guy" who did the research that made her mix up John Wayne and serial killer John Wayne Gacy? And someone had to research it or why throw it out there at all?

Ya know the Tea Partiers are going to the defend this lady and Mama Grizzly Sarah to the end. These are the same people who voted for a witch in Delaware for senate..

My issue is this country already has a idiot in office, so you are actually going to support another Idiot to take his place?
