Barack Obama is going to have to school Katy Tur on the famous sons of all the 57 states . . .
If ever there were a famous Virginian, it is George Washington. Born and raised in Virginia, Mount Vernon was, of course, his historic home.
Yet somehow, a confused Katy Tur has claimed that Washington was a "native son of New York." Her embarrassing gaffe occurred today on MSNBC, as Tur handed off the MTP Daily hour to Ari Melber and The Beat.
ARI MELBER: Hi, Katy. I wanted to wish you a happy Presidents Day.
TUR: You know, it is George Washington Day here in New York, unlike the rest of the country, because George Washington: native son of New York.
MELBER: Big up, big New Yorker. East Coast.
TUR: That's right.
MELBER: He was known as an East Coast one.
TUR: He was New York's big papa.
Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

LOL stupid twit probably Googled Mount Vernon and thought it meant Westchester County.
Katy Tur is yet another ignorant Leftist slut.
The quality of history in the U.S. is about as bad as it gets.
There was a program on TV yesterday about American Presidents who served in WWII.
It was full of embarrassing errors. One was that the Japanese Destroyer came so close to Kennedy’s PT boat that it capsized. In fact the Japanese captain purposely rammed it and literally cut it in two.
Just about everything they said was either wrong or distorted. Of course every now and then they got something right.
Yep.
Gee, I get embarrassed when I post something and misspell an easy word.
of course G Washington was a New Yorker (or at least a Jersyite?)
Just look where his bridge is located!
I have said this before...
It’s amazing how a guy could be really good looking and have soft features that almost look feminine, and yet,
when they start changing hair and dress to look female, they begin to look ugly. And it is not imagination, I have studied this and it is true. Bruce Jenner was so handsome, as a woman he looks awkward and ludicrous and not good looking at all.
Washington’s Crossing is between New Jersey and Pennsylvania. There’s a perfectly good bridge there (well, a bit narrow) so I don’t know why they had to use boats.
SIRI is a leftist nincompoop as well.
ok on Pennsylvania bridge!
( i was thinking of the GW bridge between Manhattan and Fort Lee, New Jersey)
She has potential though - kinda cute. I'm pretty sure that I could make a decent human being out of her in a single night. I'm relatively certain she has all but given up on the coastal liberal male types that she hangs around with. I think she's single.
Tur Kamala-ed her way up the corporate noose ladder.
