Maybe Obama was talking with John Kerry earlier that day, hence the reason for the slip up?

Or you can check out the video actually showing him say this. It was posted and talked about just a few posts earlier. Do you still think it was a slip up?

Only to the extent that it was a pretty strange joke. Why did he choose the number 57. Why not 50 - thousand? That would have been humorous and obvious.
I think it was actually a code he was sending to someone. Go figure. I really believe there is more to this story than we can ever know.

What is with you people?
You're taking this statement and pushing it to unrealistic, outlandish limits, and using that as an anti-Obama point.
Holy cow, makes me scared to make a joke on HERE after seeing how some of you people react.
Obama 'thinking the country a joke'? You've got to be kidding me.

Because I'm familiar with your posts, I'll assume the 'racism' accusation was a joke, but you are pushing this thing way past reasonable limits.
Is this the new trend? Nobody can make a joke about the U.S. anymore without getting battered for 'thinking the country is a joke'?

Alxandro,
Have you watched the video yet? I am curious...
Yeah, he may had been tired but the number 50 with regards the US flag should be second nature to any red blooded American.
Makes me wonder if he is smarter than fifth grader?
