Looks like someone in the White House press office needs to brush up on his or her U.S. geography.
The press office issued credentials to those reporters and photojournalists who are covering the president’s trip this week to Washington state, California, and Colorado. The credential even provides a handy graphic highlighting (in white) which states the president will visit.
The only problem?
Wyoming is highlighted, not Colorado.

One can only imagine the outcry and ridicule that would ensue had Sarah Palin done this.
But, it’s standard practice when it comes from the West Wing Clown Show of Felon/Cretins.
staff: “Those states all look the same”
Doncha love that double standard - and the hypocrisy behind it...
The credential even provides a handy graphic highlighting (in white) which states the president will visit.

Wyoming is highlighted, not Colorado.
Guessing that it was someone that got a gift “B” from Harvard, grade inflation you know.
In his defense, it’s really hard to remember the names and shapes of all 57 states.
Yeah, and as CNN notes, some of those 57 states all look alike anyway.
“Comrades! Michelle and I look forward to enjoying the sunny beaches of Colorado.”
It’s all “flyover” territory anyways... why are they bothering to stop? Must they refuel in Colo-oming?
Mistakes by this WH are nothing new. How about making headlines when (if) they ever do anything right?
Tough to figure out which is which among all those 57 states.
Hilarious.
Could this administration BE any more incompetent?
There was a class of posters that came out years ago, depending on where it was marketed, but “A Bostonian’s View of the US” had similar names for the West/Midwest states - Rectangular State, Another Rectangular State, etc.”. Probably similar labels in “A New Yorker’s View...”, etc.
And these two states (Colorado and Wyoming) happen to have the same shape.
“The Trip of President Barack Obama to The American West”
Sheesh, what the hell is with this title? Was he going by stagecoach? Fighting Indians all the way?
