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.

Nobody ever mentions that Dan Quayle was actually not doing the spelling himself. He was in a classroom (public skool) and a teacher had written it on the board that way, probably not because she wanted to trip him up, but because she didn’t know how to spell it herself. All he did was spell it out loud as it was written.

What was he supposed to do? Stop and correct the teacher in front of the cameras? Or read it out loud with the error? It was a lose-lose situation.

Well...on the bright side of things..the Obama campaign doesn’t need to spend any more time or money in a state whose name they can’t or won’t spell....

Quayle was a very strong candidate, having soundly defeated entrenched Democrat incumbents for both House and Senate here in Indiana.

After the Clintonian plurality loss, he laughed all the way to the bank becoming Chairman of Global Investments at hedge fund Cerberus.

Hey Smooth, are you aware that on the PJ Media page you linked to, their petition says:

“Voter Suppression in Florida - FL Republicans robbed Al Gore, now they’re planning to steal the presidency again”.

Is PJ Media really pushing the “Bush Stole The Election” meme this year? If so, do you think we should be linking to them and giving them the Web hits they so desperately want?

Looks like OIHA to me. Maybe that’s the Hawaiian county he wasn’t born in.

By the way, p-o-t-a-t-o-e is a perfectly valid spelling.
