Brain Dead in O-I-H-O

Ed Driscoll

Bless his heart.

Having had to deal with the Thomas Eagleton veep freakout last week and his own Kerry in the bunnysuit moment yesterday, it’s time for Mr. Obama to commit 2012′s equivalent of the Dan Quayle “Potatoe” gaffe today:

Naturally, the Washington Post rushed to defend their candidate’s gaffe, as Charlie Spiering of the Washington Examiner notes:

An embarrassing photo of President Obama trying to spell Ohio with a group of students was snagged by Buzzfeed this afternoon, as Zeke Miller posted two different photos of the incident on their website.

Many Romney supporters quickly tweeted the photo, joking that the President didn’t know how to spell Ohio.

The Washington Post quickly posted a defense of the president claiming that the erroneous photo had been photoshopped. They also believed that they had caught Mitt Romney Ohio spokesman Christopher Maloney for erroneously tweeting the photo.

It got worse from there, before the Post finally backed off the ledge.

Oiho, the 51st state (out of 57)

[mosaicwolf]

Just imagine if Dan Quale sasd that!

[LazloToth]

Feh... Bottom story of the day.

[ecomcon]

If it was a film negative, you could flop it and make it right.

[null and void]

In this case, the bottom is a step up.

[Col Frank Slade]

“Hey oh where’d ya go OIHO”

Apologies the The Pretenders and Rush Intro Theme.

[smoothsailing]

Says you.

[ecomcon]

It is correct on the “stage”, as the “I” is to Obamas right. But the audience sees it the other way.

[twister881]

For Mr. On-the-Down-Low, Bathhouse Barry, the formulation is correct. He’s just trolling for business:

O’ - I - Ho’ !!!

[The Cajun]

O-I-H-O

ing'f itiod!

[Busywhiskers]

It could be that the picture got flipped. Just sayin. On the other hand we are talking about the most powerful idiot in the world.

[gorush]

...good point, however, men’s shirts button in the way shown whereas women’s shirts button from the opposite side.

[Joe 6-pack]

"If it was a film negative, you could flop it and make it right."

It can be done digitally as well...

[ecomcon]

Ah hah, very good.

[IronJack]

At least "potato" has more than four letters. And Dan Quayle never pretended to be a Harvard graduate whose IQ made Einstein look like a dunce.

Obama is not just a pansy socialist, he's a boob. Nice job, Democrats. Thanks for foisting this embarrassment off on us.

[ecomcon]

Although, how come the numb nuts on both sides of our Dork-in-cheif are making similar signs? IHIO

[rarestia]

I caught that early on. It’s amazing what one can do to a photo with something as simple as a smartphone.

That’s funny. I claim that for my first ever tagline.

[Joe 6-pack]

"It’s amazing what one can do to a photo with something as simple as a smartphone."

I just held my computer up to mirror.

[Ann Archy]

OMG!!! Obama waas IN the SPELLING!!! What an ARSE!!!

[Third Person]

Putting the misspelling aside, there is something very gay about the picture.

[gorush]

See post #13.

[Ann Archy]

DOOFUS SQUARED!!!

[szweig]

But the shirt buttons are then backwards...Stevie666

[Yulee]

He is spelling it right to left, just like any other Muslim who knows that you read Arabic right to left.

[rarestia]

Astute observation and completely correct. Thank you, sir.

If it was a film negative, you could flop it and make it right.

Their shirts would have been buttoned backwards. :)

[ExGeeEye]

...and then, to the observant, their shirts look wrong.

[fhayek]

If it was a film negative, you could flop it and make it right.

Be careful. In this day and age, that statement will more than likely be branded as racist.

[GnL]

And Obumbles always wears his watch on his left wrist (see this week’s Newsweek cover).

[Joe 6-pack]

"...men’s shirts button in the way shown..."

I see no "men" in that photo.

[Perdogg]

No the OIHO photo is correct, look at the breast pocket.

[BenLurkin]

Hussein is left handed.

Which wrist does Hussein wear his watch on?

[gorush]

I think that was the point I was trying to make.

[BenLurkin]

...

[Political Junkie Too]

The picture is right. Obama wears his watch on his left arm.

-PJ

[Ann Archy]

EVEN IF he spelled it right....what kind of ADULT PRESIDENT does this???? This is CHILDISH CRAP!!

[bgill]

He’s used to being the “Y” when the Mens’ Club boys do “YMCA.”

[bgill]

But flipping it would give them all girly shirts.

[randog]

[Joe 6-pack]

They’re all girly men...

[treetopsandroofs]

“Hussein is left handed.
Which wrist does Hussein wear his watch on?”

Why so eager to believe Hussein isn’t indeed such a moron?

I caught the wristwatch and shirt issues HOURS ago on another thread here — you can check that.

And you could have also looked up photos of Hussein wearing a watch before pointedly assuming he wore it on the other hand because he is left-handed.

Are you a HUSSEIN HEAD?

P-O-T-H-E-A-D-O

See post 37 and apologize to me at your leisure.
