I am sure he will soon insist that he was not wrong, there there SHOULD and WOULD be 57 states if it wasn't for the evil and incompetent (and really, how can you be evil and incompetent?) bush administration preventing us from achieving the unity and healing of sacred "57 stateness", without which we are in extreme peril from the terrorists, and never mind that W is literally killing them by the score, we shouldn't be because the war is wrong, and I was right about wrong before wrong was cool, and you had better elect me president so I can lose this thing because that is the only way I can avoid being wrong about being wrong. And then Michelle won't be proud. again.

I'm waiting for him to come back and say he was talking about the U.S. insular areas. It still wouldn't come out to 57 though (I think).

When I first heard this I thought it was some kind of political ploy to tell the 5 territories and D.C. he considered them just as important as a "state".
If you add the 5 territories and D.C. that equals up to 56

American Samoa, Panama Canal Zone, Guam, Midway Island, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
perfect.
thus, the Obama doth speaketh the truth that the dull masses cannot comprehend. that's why we need saving, see? :-)

The libs, and a few conserves, at ncaabbs.com are trying to persuade me into believing he meant 47. Add that with the one he said he didn't visit, and Alaska and Hawaii that his "advisers" said they couldn't justify visiting, and you have 50.
Still, I have a hard time believing anyone over the age of 10 could get that wrong....ESPECIALLY someone who wants to run the country.

I think if you combine north and south dakota into one state, and north and south carolina into one state, you would get 47.
maybe THAT is what he means by "unity" and "healing"; he thinks those four states are broken. :-)
on edit : nope, that's 48. you have to "unbreak" WVA and VA, too. THEN you have 47. :-) :-)

No, I mean he said he visited 57 states, with one left to go and then said he wasn't going to visit Alaska and Hawaii. If he meant 47, he'd be right. However, I'm not convinced that was a misspoken statement.

Had this been said by a Republican, he or she would have been torn to shreds all over the media by now (think POTATO).

I'm just goofin' on the guy :-). hey, it's the internets; if we plant the "reunify the states to get 47" meme in the right places, it will be true by dinner time. :hyper:

I think we're getting our signals crossed. I don't believe it was him misspeaking. I think he actually did not know how many states were in the union.

obama is including all the our welfare states...
washington DC, Israel, Iraq, Mexico, Peurto rico etc.etc.

Look Gator/Ed...I'm sorry your normal website where you are admin at is down right now and you can't troop bash and let your inner Hitler run free right now.
But RC will have it back up in a jiffy and you and the Ronobots can blame the JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSS for everything from world famine to your latest case of flaming hemorrhoids.
But you will NOT do it here.
Understand?

I think you are right. He is stupid. It would be fun to ask this dimwit several American history questions.

"400 years of whitemans oppression"
"'where's our 40 acres & mule?"
:lmao:

We did better than that. We set them up an entire country, Liberia. So, to the ones that stayed, I'm to the point now where I say "tough shit, make the best of it and STFU". They're much better off here than their distant cousins in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
