In all fairness, Muslims spell from right to left...

"O-I-H-O"

That must be the .... 57th state.

Joe Biden would have found a way to spell Ohio “P-O-T-A-T-O”

[JRios1968]

Let’s just say you would NEVER want to have Obozo join you to sing “YMCA” during karaoke.

“O-I-H-O”

Yes he does. Finally a true statement out of Obama.

Reply of the day, right there.

If you stand behind the group the word reads correctly; so, from Obama's perspective it seemed right. He simply failed to realize that to those facing them, the word was mirror-image.

Or, maybe he's just a dork.

The big deal is is NOT the misspelling.

It takes four people to form four letters, somebody else goofed too.

Likely somebody said “You be ‘H’, you be “i”, and it wasn’t clear who he was talking to when.

No big deal.

But why does the WashPost have to get all defensive ???

In other words, he views the world backwards — communism is good, freedom is bad. What else is new?

[Opinionated Blowhard]

The really funny part of this is that the Washington Post immediately — and without any evidence — claimed it was photoshopped. Its like a mother whose immediate reaction to being told her son committed a crime is that it can’t be true. Its a knee-jerk reaction that you have if someone you love is being attacked. And we all know how much the Washington Post loves Obama.

Obama is dumber than donuts.

[stormhill]

Can't remember the speaker's name but there was a lecture on the net several years ago which brilliantly proved that liberals are wrong on everything. It's as if they instinctively seek out the wrong positions on all issues in protest of past failed efforts by the human race to improve itself.

How the media was all over Dan Quayle because he put an e on the end of potato.

[bigbob]

He was naturally giving us the reverse teleprompter image

[smith288]

Don’t be fooled by the WaPo, they can’t tell what’s a photoshop or not by looking at which side their shirts button. DUH. Great investigative team.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Let’s assume all the loose arm gestures were correct. “Ohio” is then spelled correctly from B-HO’s point of view. However, he couldn’t think beyond himself to envision how OTHERS would see it. Typical. (Conversely, I’ve only seen a few Freepers “get” what I’m talking about...which is scary, too.)

I think this is so dumb! It was a mistake, not an indication of stupidity.
The probem is that EVERY TIME a conservative does something like this, the MSM takes it an runs, and perpetuates the myth that all conservatives are stupid. When O does it, not so much.
It makes me sick.
