You're making it seem like Obama is a retard. ALL of the Guantanamo bay victims who were tortured for years will be sent to overseas prisons, NONE of them will be released OR be released into the U.S. Also, he did mean 59 it was a political campaign spectrum, 50 states and some 9 overseas stuff I don't remember completely.
Here is his exact words: (this is from the Los Angeles Times)
"It is wonderful to be back in Oregon," Obama said. "Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go. Alaska and Hawaii, I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit, but my staff would not justify it."
This is what he said later that day: (Also from the Los Angeles Times)
(UPDATE: At a later stop Obama was talking with reporters and expressed concern he'd also mis-stated the number of potential cyclone victims in Burma. He said, ""I hope I said 100,000 people the first time instead of 100 million. I understand I said there were 57 states today. It's a sign that my numeracy is getting a little, uh." At that point, an aide cut him off and ushered journalists out. Before he could mis-speak again?)
So Yah, I do think he is a retard.
The US is made up of ONLY 50 states, and 7 Commonwealths & Territories,
So maybe he ment this, but he's an idiot.
I may dislike him-and disagree with him, but we have to deal with him, he is only one man and I understand this-the area (In my opinion) we have to watch out for is congress. They can **** this country up and the bad this is: the president will always get blamed.
What I have written is my opinion and how I see it, allot of you may disagree, and thats your right; but have fun with replying to my right wing views, and don't take it too seriously.
they are the ones that can screw this country up.
