Gaffe 41: Obama announces he's in St Louis when he was actually in Kansas City

At the end of the Michelle Obama speech, Barack Obama joined them over closed circuit TV.

Asked where he was...Barack said I'm in St Louis.

Only problem was he was actually in Kansas City.

Luckily his daughter was on the stage and asked him again "Daddy where are you?" This time he got it right.

DENVER — Last week, Republican John McCain didn't know how many homes he owns.
Tonight, Democrat Barack Obama didn't know what town he was in.
In a live satellite speech tonight to the Democratic National Convention in Denver from a home in Kansas City, Obama said: "I'm here with the Girardo family here in St. Louis."

Then came a graphic across the television screen that said Obama was in Kansas City, Mo.
Then 7-year-old Sasha Obama asked: "Daddy, what city are you in?"
"I'm in Kansas City, sweetie," Obama said, correcting his earlier geographic reference.
Obama was at the home in Kansas City tonight to watch his wife Michelle's keynote address, according to his campaign.
Obama is hosting a town hall meeting on Tuesday at the American Airlines facility in Kansas City.

Michelle is fast becoming the Cruella Da Ville of politics

No! No! No!

No experience

in executive leadership role, military service; business,or implementing major change, resulting in unsound political policies

No judgment

resulting in his keeping company in Chicago with crooks, bombers, racists, sexists and anti-semites; divisive rhetoric, narcissism, overbearing arrogance and cronyism

No integrity

leads to broken promises, hypocrisy, under-hand political tactics, flip flops and Obama's list of 99 Documented LIES

Barack Obama, the very junior Senator from Chicago, lacks the most basic of experience needed to be President; he is easily influenced and doesn't have the judgment to know what he doesn't know; even worse he lacks the integrity to learn from his mistakes preferring to use gifted oratory to deflect criticism and blame others. Thats why millions of life-long Democrats, and other moderate Americans just say no deal.

Its easy to laugh about gas prices, when you fly in luxury

Obama with supporter Rev Jesse Jackson sr, whose son is National Chairman of Obama's campaign. Jackson Sr's daughter Santita and Michelle Obama grew up together and are "tight friends." She is the godmother to one of the Obama kids. During Jesse Jackson sr's failed 1984 run for the White House, Jackson Sr also had a Pastor Disaster when Jackson Sr refused to condemn his Minister Farrakhan's anti-semitic remarks. (Also pictured is another Obama supporter Illinois's Governor Blagojovich. The nervous governor is at the center of the recent Rezko convictions on 16 counts of corruption.)

Obama zealot Rev Lee: Payback time for Jews

Obama asked to meet PRIVATELY with Imam Hassan Qazwini.

Imam Hassan Qazwini (right) meets with Hezbollah Spiritual Leader Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah. Iman Qazwini is a sponsor of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. He is currently the leader of the largest mosque in the USA. His private meeting with Obama, shown in the inset, took place on May 14 2008, minutes after Obama told a reporter at an auto plant "Not now Sweetie." According to the Mosque related website the Imam gave Obama a copy of his latest book, Crescent America (see directly below). Hezballah: Photo source Debbie Schussel. Inset Source Detroit Free Press

For 22 years, Obama has been an enabler of racial intolerence

After 22 years listening to Pastor Wright's mesmerizing sermons based on Black Liberation Theory, how much has Senator Obama been influenced by its hateful rhetoric about "white supremacy" in the United States? Fundamental questions remain about Obama's lack of judgment in that he never once over a span of 800 weeks of Church attendance challenged his friend the pastor, even in private, about the pastor's ludicrous condemnation of the US Government for crimes including inventing HIV to kill African-Africans. Nor did he challenge his pastor when he allowed an article to be published in the Church Bulletin suggesting Jews invented a bomb with the astonishing powers to kill only Blacks and Arabs. Despite the hateful, and untruthful allegations about white Americans, the US Government and Jewish people, that Obama's pastor spread throughout the 8500 strong Chicago-based congregation, Obama, as recently as mid-2007, introduced his pastor to several thousand conference attendees as a friend and great leader.Obama's not only NOT a uniter, but also for 22 years he's been an enabler of racial intolerance. It wasn't until March 18 2008, after ABC's March 13 2008 broadcast of this news story threatened to undermine his primary race, that he condemned some of his Pastor's most offensive statements. Even then, Obama could not bring himself to break with the Pastor who he describes as councilor, the man who brought Obama to the Lord, officiated at Obama's wedding, baptized both Obama kids, and blessed his new $2 million Hyde Park mansion. It was not until two months after the Pastor repeated the same lies in at least two major speeches seen live on cable news that Obama announced Wright was no longer his pastor.
