  1. He also stated on Oriely that he wanted to protect the United States AND the Home Land so maybe one of these states is this "homeland" he speaks of.


  2. hmmm... Geogia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Guantanamo Bay, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait???????


  3. I think he meant places like:

    Puerto Rico

    U.S. Virgin Islands

    American Samoa

    Guam

    Northern Mariana Islands

    Minor Outlying Islands

    Baker Island

    Howland Island

    Jarvis Island

    Johnston Atoll

    Midway Islands

    Palmyra Atoll

    Kingman Reef

    While they are territories of the US, they are defiantly not state, I have no idea where he got 7. He ain't quite right, is he?

  4. I'm still trying to figure that one out

  5. roflmao

    hmmmn

    State of Depression (where the country is headed)

    State of Denial (Where we are currently)

    State where the Nitaly Lions football team Obama said today plays

  6. and they pick on McCain's mind. ha, ha, ha.

  7. Germany, Iran, China, Kenya, Russia.....

      

  8. Maybe you should ask McCain.  

  9. obama land 1 thru 5 ..and i guess only harvard people and professors got the memo...

  10. Obama was clearly exhausted when he made that remark...he meant to say 47 not 57.  Can anyone explain how McCain didnt know how many houses he had?  Or perhaps why hes still alive?

  11. No, but I do know they're all hidden in the homes John McSenile couldn't remember, right between where he didn't know the difference between Shia and Sunni. Not to mention McSenile's lack of knowledge of geography? What countries share a border with Afghanistan, Senator?

  12. Were I to go the political route, which on both sides of the aisle seems to revolve around conveniently rewriting the reality of the situation to favor my own point of view in an attempt to do anything but acknowledge the fact I'm not the freaking messiah and someone else might have a valid point I should listen to and work with them on, I would probably quip:

    "I was referring to Puerto Rico, Guam, St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. John, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands, all of which we control.  It's time to decide this is the United States of America and make these territories states and stop relegating them and the Americans who live in them to second class citizen status, or acknowledge that we did away with keeping people in bondage because of an accident of birth when Abraham Lincoln was President, and set these people free!"

    Of course, that would have been utter and complete nonsense since most of the places I listed neither qualify for nor desire statehood, nor do they wish to secede from the United States.

    However, I hear Sarah Palin has tons of foreign relations experience because "Alaska's the closest part of America to Russia".  Thank God it works like that because we have seventeen states that border foreign countries.  Who knew we had that many people with extensive foreign relations experience we could tap as ambassadors?!  Why haven't we done so?  I'm sure the people of North Dakota wouldn't mind getting the h**l out of there for a while and going someplace more tropical.

    We've obviously left reality far, far behind, so I'm not surprised several imaginary states have suddenly appeared within our borders.

    Obama was tired, and made a mistake.  It happens.  He was honest enough to catch his mistake later in the day and correct himself in front of the media.

    What can I say?  At least he was honest about it.

    "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

    Not that I'm suggesting you're part of the effort, but I refuse to listen to and endless stream of criticism about the occasional gaffes of others, from a party led by a man who said "rarely is the questioned asked: Is our children learning?"

    The instant George W. Bush meets St. Peter's end on the crucifix of oration, I will be happy to once again listen to the Republican party point out the verbal mistakes of others.  Until then, it just makes whoever's leveling the criticism look like a petty asinine baboon throwing oral diarrhea around because he or she can't come up with a valid argument to stand on.

  13. i have no *******  clue...

  14. I never went to harvard either

    but i've spoken in many areas, and have had many time has been thinking one thing and saying another and the two mixed

    you have never misspoke? ever?

    how come it's ok when you do it?

    it's not like he has so many homes he has no idea how many.

    or giving sarah palin credit for being

    "in charge of 20 percent of America's energy supply"

    heh, first off she not "in charge" on ANY energy supply, and there is no way 20% of all this nations energy comes from alaska.

    he misspoke...what he meant to say was 20% of domestic OIL supply.

    it happens, only fools hang on to it...why?...because EVERYONE does it!

  15. Does he mean the territories? Why did he call them states? Is it some kind of inside joke?

  16. Apparently you didn't even get your GED yet....

    When you understand the context of the comment, you will realize how idiotic your question is.  But again, you need to start with getting that GED.

  17. I dont know but I think McCain has houses in them

  18. Africa was one. That's his true love.

  19. Kenya, Sudan, Ethiopia, Libya, Iran, Mexico and Venezuela.

    These new states will get the bulk of our tax dollars.
