Racking up macaca moments

Election Day is still 15 months away, but wanna-be presidents already have a rich variety of gaffes to their discredit. Unfortunately for them, many misspoken words can be heard forever, courtesy of YouTube. Among the highlights so far, via Associated Press: Barack Obama’s statement about the Greensburg tornado, that “10,000 people died — an entire town destroyed.” The death toll was 10.

    That was a true slip of the tongue! Must have been something he ATE! ‘YouTube’ has outed many a candidate for misspoken statements! Aah! The age of technology!

    OMG, that gaff is nearly as bad as Bush’s gaffs about mushroom clouds, WMDs, dirty bombers and America doesn’t torture people. Hah! How is Obama ever going to compete with those.
