Are they REALLY that stupid? Must be the talking point of the day.
YES!!!
I was watching this. He made this blooper while praising Obama in the same segment. Maybe some low level campaign preppie typed the talking points wrong for the teleprompter.
These clowns all get the same memos of talking points.
Ellison was on MSNBC all last nigh claiming the cop-killer they were about to execute was innocent, and the next night he’s on O’reilly, and O’Reilly wasn’t smart enough to ask Ellison if he really thought the murderer was innocent or should be released just because he was black. Another great job, Ted Baxter.
Actually, I think the country that built the intercontinental railroad was Russia, seeing that the Trans-Siberian Railroad runs from Europe into and across Asia.
Or maybe it was Britain, which completed a rail link between Africa and Asia by building a railroad bridge across the Suez Canal in 1918 for the Palestine Railway.
[T]he song [Wabash Cannonball] is based on a tall tale in which Cal S. Bunyan, Paul Bunyan's brother, constructed a railroad known as the Ireland, Jerusalem, Australian & Southern Michigan Line. After two months of service, the 700-car train was traveling so fast that it arrived at its destination an hour before its departure. Finally, the train took off so fast that it rushed in to outer space,...Of course this does not meet the "What if Dan Quayle had said that?" test.
O’Rielly failed to nail Ellison on failing economic policies too, although I don’t recall my exact criticism, he missed it.
