FRONT PAGE NEWS in the foreign media, but ABSOLUTE SILENCE in the U.S. Media about this.
Had Sarah Palin or Mitt Romney said this, the media would be giving us HOURLY breaking news updates, telling us this is proof of how stupid they are, and ignorant of foreign policy!!

Even if he got it right, calling it the Malvinas is practically siding with Argentina, as far as the Brits are concerned. Try going into Istanbul and start refrring to it as Constantinople or Byzantium and see what happens.

Undoubtedly he put on one of his fake accents as he incorrectly named these islands. What a worthless tool we have as a president. I’m embarassed for him and he certainly is an embarassment to America.

Not uncharacteristic at all. He blows it every time he opens his rotten stinking mouth. It’s just covered up daily by the butt licking press, same as they do for Biden.

Notice how the press, even in pointing out Obama’s error, STILL have to fault Bush! I don’t recall Bush making an error in geography. And Obama has made several.

"Uncharacteristic?" Huh? Like 57 states? Corpseman? Algae? Inflate your tires? How do you say that in Austrian? And on and on.
Sorry, I don't think he's that bright.

Barack Obama made an uncharacteristic error... Uncharacteristic? From the guy who think there's 57 states, never learned to speak "Austrian", and thinks Marines are addressed as "Corpse-man"?
He's the Ron Burgundy President; he reads whatever is on the teleprompter.

Silly Telegraph. In fact, once again 7 billion people and the foreign press (the American press is busy watching Hillary party hearty) simply misunderstood him.
He actually said Malvinas, effectively both sucking up to Argentina (and the OAS) and offending Britain.
Mere mortals make embarrassing mistakes. The Won does not.
Reference plus ungood delete Maldives insert Malvinas/Bush’s fault end

ABSOLUTE SILENCE in the U.S. Media about this.
But of course.
The media and late night comedians explode over the tiniest mistakes by anyone with an (R)or an (C) but glaze over when "The One" makes an obvious error or outright lies.
After Obama was elected I stopped watching the late night comedians, not because of laughs at conservatives expense but because they swerved away from great jokes of the day where obama or his administration flubbed up royally only to yuck it up with a lame Palin, McCain, Limbaugh joke.
And on the rare occasions they did have an Obama joke, the punchline was "how A)brilliant he was... B)How tough he was....C) What a great guy he is...
After all of that sucking up to obama, one would think they needed to have their stomach pumped, a la the old Rod Stewart rumor .
I miss the talent of Johnny Carson(a liberal but one who toasted both sides of the bread)

It is the Falkland Islands.
The Malvinas is a LSD fantasy Argentine politicians pull out when they want to distract the peons from the fact that their lives both suck and blow.

They are called the Falklands. End of Story.
I spent 6 months of my life - a month of it so sea sick I wanted to curl up and die - ensuring they would remain that name.
I don’t approve of name calling, but this guy really is a dumba^s, isn’t he. Kick your oldest and strongest ally yet again.
