Barack Obama wants to be president of these 57 United States

Quote:
"It is wonderful to be back in Oregon," Obama said. "Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go. Alaska and Hawaii, I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit, but my staff would not justify it."

McCain letting a fart

When McCain gets that warm feeling, he would just claim that is proof that global warming is real.

Oh, will y’all just laugh it off!? I mean, it’s not like he was George W Bush, or a Republican, or a conservative, or something!/s;)

Get a sense of humor, dude. Do you really think we’re all sitting here thinking about how McCain can run ads in late October about this gaffe and pull off a 50 state landslide? Lighten up, Francis.

Obama has a hard time conceptualizing numbers.
This isn’t the first time he has made a numerical error.

“It’s the Obamath”, from the Obamamouth by that Obamamoth.. I think I will stop there.

Mahalo from the Big Island, where he did not go to school.

Mostly I’m just in for this because it’s funny, but consider this: If he’s so tired from campaigning that he messes up the number of states twice, and his 70+ opponent is doing just fine, what does that say about his brian power in a long crisis?

If a city gets nuked by Al Qaida or something, what’s Barry’s mental state going to be on Day 5 or so?

Not a big deal, but not nothing, either.

Newsflash: They, Presstitutes & Obama, ALREADY jumped on McCain for saying, (and, unlike Obama, then immediately correcting) 'Shiite", when he meant "Sunni".

Said it "proved" he was too old & senile to be President.

Have YOU ever made a mistake?

Not wile stumping for President.

ROTFL

You're right!

57 (visited) + 1 (one more to go) + 2 (Alaska & Hawaii) = 60.

This word problem should be on SAT tests.

If Barack Obama has visited 57 States. Is not going to visit two States and has one State left to visit. How many States are in Barack Obama's America?

[... Obama is ‘losing his bearings ...]

More like Obama has lost his marbles.
