    Default Obama Screws Up Facts In His Inaugural Speech

    Two paragraph's into Obama's Inaugural address, Barrack makes a blunder. He states "Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath".

    This is an inaccurate statement. Obamama is our 44th president but he is only the 43rd person to serve. Grover Cleveland was the only president to serve two non-consecutive terms making him the 22nd and 24th president.

    I know that this isn't a big deal but it will be interesting to see if it gets repoerted by the mainstream media or if Obama gets a free pass. You know that Bush wouldn't.


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

    the media is blaming it on Roberts..You should realize by now "The One " can't make mistakes
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."

    You are talking about the oath Steph.

    This is what he said afterwards. But you are correct. if Pres Bush would have said this the Obama campaign staff in the liberal media, would be all over this factual error

    It's become a royal joke for me..

    The liberal media is having a collective orgasim today

    Pres Obama graduated from prestigious universities with honors, he should have known this little detail about American history

    I don't have very high hope for this person, and I'm damn sure worried over the administration he has assembled..

    we will see soon enough.

    we need to pray for our country..

    It doesn't seem like an overly bad mistake, really. The media report it wrong, too.

    EVERY mistake Pres Bush ever uttered or made has been front page news and the lead story on the nightly news Sharon

    This is not in error. This was Obama's second paragraph in his speech

    But who wrote the speech? If Bush had made the same mistake, it would have been his speech writers fault, not him.

    We were told Obama wrote the speech

    Again, I am asking where the liberal media is on pointing out the error as they would have done if Pres Bush said it

    Well, I don't know. As I said, I don't think it's a big mistake to make. The media wouldn't report on a mistake that they make all the time, too. It wouldn't look good for them.

    Of course it is no big deal - it was Obama who made the gaffe

    Now if was Pres Bush or McCain, well that would be a different story
