Oh my goodness poor old guy. That is not a good mistake to make. But, please cast the first stone if you have never made a verbal blooper in a tense moment. Most of us have. As a matter of fact "O" has made a few himself. That later needed to be cleared up.

This reminds me of a Ronald Reagan news conference where he's talking about the Suez Canal and pointing to Africa on a map.
Ha!

Carter, or Reagan - I'm unsure which (LONG ago)
Well, I'll leave the error made in the town's

Sounds like age discrimination to me. And how old are most of us in this group? hahaha
You must be reading my ever feebling mind, PT.
Racism BAD
Sexism BAD
Ageism OKIE DOKIE!
I'd have to say I did take a little offense to the "senior moment" jab. I resemble that remark!

Yes you are right Deb, it is a farce. Every thing I read like this is blather.
It is easy to make fun of people who are old when they make a mistake. I will agree that Obama is very good when he is reading a script written by one of his multitude of advisers, but he is worse that McCain when he is trying to be extemporaneous. That second video that was posted was typical of the way he handles himself and he has made those mistakes in most of the 57 states - but with their love affair, most of the media just gives him a pass. I guess it must be fun for liberals to chuckle about his age. They also make fun of him because his body is broken and not very agile because of his torture in Vietnam. I assume that is what you do about people that don't prescribe to your thought process. I find this to be analogous to your messiah talking about the people in Pennsylvania that were voting for Clinton as "clinging to their religion and guns with antipathy for others". Who has the antipathy here?
