Gee we've heard this for the past 2 years.

Good, decent, obedient, patriotic Americans are always crapping in their pants with paranoia about some nation.

Welcome to 2011... it looks like you've been stuck in 2008. The rest of humanity has moved on by now.

No, Obama's slip of the tongue implied there are 60 states. Which he didn't think was the case, he merely substituted "fifty" for "forty". One to visit, not visiting Hawaii or Alaska.

47 + 2 + 1 = 50.

This has been explained many times but some people have lead for brains.

For crying out loud republicans are still afraid of the commies even though Reagan single handily crushed them.
