More spelling errors plague Obama releases @ 2:09 pm by Michael O'Brien

Misspellings continued to plague the Obama administration on Thursday, after two more releases containing errors were sent to reporters in the last 24 hours.

After misspelling the president's name as "Barak Obama" yesterday on an official document sent to reporters, the General Services Administration messed up another message when announcing it had awarded an $18 million contract to redesign the website keeping track of spent stimulus dollars.

"Recvoery.gov Version 2.0 $18 Million Contract Awarded," the release's subject line read. ("Recovery" was spelled correctly in the body of the email.)

The White House also sent out a release containing a typo in its joint statement from White House and the spokesman for U.K. Prime Minister Gordon Brown about the leader between Obama and the British PM today.

"The Prime Minister wlecomed the President's plans for a nuclear security conference in 2010," the sentence read.

Somebody should axe them if they proofread the email before it went out.

Soon we will be told that these things just are not important and that we are racists for thinking that they are.

The other day the ladies on The View mentioned that Obama had great difficulty pronouncing the name of the Russian leader (not Putin). They chuckled mildly. They noted that it was a hard name. They noted that Obama was tired and jet lagged. They noted that everything else was going really, really, really well. They moved on.

Sigh. Mispronunciations and spelling mistakes were handled so differently during the Bush administration.

This goes to show you how much these people respect the office of President of the United States.
