This stuff is comedy gold. This and the bit about cuing the band to play as he started his toast to the Queen would be funny on Benson or Spin City or some other show with a goofy political leader/boss and a long-suffering staff.
Except those kinds of shows never feature liberals as the doofus boss.
The Obama gaffe machine continues:
President Obama erred during a speech at the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, when attempting to call the disputed archipelago by its Spanish name.
Instead of saying Malvinas, however, Mr Obama referred to the islands as the Maldives, a group of 26 atolls off that lie off the South coast of India.
The Maldives were a British protectorate from 1887 to 1965 and the site of a UK airbase for nearly 20 years.
Anyone can make mistakes, but Obama's forte is supposed to be public speaking. He's not a great administrator. He's not hard working. He's not knowledgeable about the world. The one thing he can do is read a teleprompter in deep, somber tones, and he's booting that job.
