Gaffetastic… Obama Signs Wrong Date (Off by 3 Years) in Westminster Abbey Book
Gateway Pundit ^ | 5-24-11 | Jim Hoft

Could you even imagine Sarah Palin or some other Republican doing this? We’d never hear the end of it.



A message from US President Barack Obama and his wife, first lady Michelle Obama, apparently signed by the President with the wrong date of 2008 in the distinguished visitors’ book during a tour of Westminster Abbey, in central London, as part of his state visit to the United Kingdom, Tuesday May 24, 2011.

If this were George Bush it would be late-night comedy material into the next century.

Don’t most Americans say May 24?

Yes. What's your point? (LOL)

I've been saying it for a long time....Obama is on some type of meds. It's why he needs the monitorsand why some events look soooooo stupid...like when he was looking to get in the white house...and was looking for a handle on the window. Or when he found the whitehouse door locked....and had to figure out another way to get in...so he walked to another door....but he was whistling...who whistles while they walk...

I'm telling you...he's on drugs...

As to the date??? I'll bet he recently read something re: 2008....but I;ll bet it's Muslim related.

How will the left deal with this gaffe?

I'm guessing this picture will NOT appear on the front page of tomorrow's NYT, and maybe it won't even be anywhere in the paper tomorrow.

I bet every newspaper editor is assigning a story to their best reporters detailing how superior intellectuals, extremely wise policy makers, the head of Harvard Law Review, as well as those whose IQs are in the stratosphere are often subseptical to pedestrian and meaningless “things”.

I understand that Saturday Night Live is planning on bringing Chevy Chase back for the weekend edition and he will announce each week that:

TODAY IS NOT May 24, 2008.

That’s just stroke-tastic!!!

Though from all the unbridled, unctuous ass-kissing he received in 2008, I’d always want it to be that year forever as well.

Exactly. A Freudian slip. He is longing for the days when he was seriously alluded to as ‘some kind of god’, and screaming fans fainted in his presence. He knows it’s gone downhill on skids, and ‘12 is not going to be a cakewalk. Most likely he will lose, and lose big.

So yes, he wishes it was still 2008. Who can blame him?
