The One-Man Gaffe Machine rolled on in Pennsylvania over the weekend:
Things did not go as flawlessly at a town-hall-style meeting on Saturday in Wayne, Pa. Picking an audience member for the final question of the day, Mr. Obama called out, “The young lady in the Coca-Cola T-shirt.”
“It says ‘recycling,'” she corrected him.
“Oh,” he replied, shrugging. “I’m getting old.”
Wonder if anyone in the MSM will ride his ass for being a befuddled coot who doesn’t know the difference between waste management and a soft drink?
That comment would go over well at the Pepsi Center. Then all he needs to do is light up a Newport.
What’s a coot?
“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun”? That’s pitiful!
I’ve got a 14 inch Arkansas toothpick John McCain can borrow. He should wear it openly for the next week just to prove a point. I won’t miss it, I’ve got plenty.
What sort of gun do you suppose Obomba would feel comfortable with?
Obomba’s Pee-Wee Hermanesque attempt to sound tough isn’t even an accurate quote from the movie The Untouchables.
As I recall Sean Connery said, “What sort of stupid **** brings a knife to a gun fight?”. It was the funniest line in the movie.
How about this gem from:http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0608/11096_Page2.html
Reeling off a list of potential excuses, Obama acknowledged that cities also need more police, “fewer guns in the hands of people who shouldn’t have them,” more money for schools, better teachers, more after-school programs and more jobs and job training.
Wonder who he means by “fewer guns in the hands of people who shouldn’t have them”? You think he’s talking about WHITEY?
Obama’s not a befuddled old coot, he’s a drug befuddled young twit.
I’m starting to think that perhaps he’s not the best man for the job…just a thought, mind you.I could be wrong.

Really? I mean, with all that experience, such noble friends and his ability to hold hands across party lines…well, he’s just so awesomely awesome!
Now chant:

I’m just so sick of it all…I’ve been called a liar for pointing out Obama’s lack of expereince and judgement on another blog (it’s a soccer mom sort of thing that discusses politics on occassion) I’m just dumbfounded by the fact that the left REFUSES to see him for what he ISN’T.
That’s OK. He once misinterpreted a CAIR shirt for a Rage Against the Machine shirt featuring Che Guevara… I’m sure that was just an honest mistake as well.
Does anybody know where we can find a picture of this shirt? I would like to see how easy it is to confuse Coke and Recycle.
What a PERFECT shirt to wear to an Obama rally…another liberal democrat with the same old recycled, failed socialist ideas
Apparently this is going to be the standard response to any McCain campaign trail mistakes – some self-depracating line about being old. Ha ha. So refreshingly self-aware we almost forgot that we already didn’t trust you even before we began to wonder if senility was setting in.
It’s a good thing nobody asked him to spell “potato”

It was Obama, not McCain.
#12-
Even better, it’s a damn good thing nobody asked him to define the term “is”.
