Chalk up this Teleflubbie to karma. In the middle of blaming the Bush administration for the status of the fight in Afghanistan because of the Iraq war, Obama fumbled his big conclusion. Just what kind of end are we going reach for the war in Iraq?
“We are bringing the war in Iraq to an irresponsible end.”
If we’re setting up an 18-month timetable for Afghanistan, we’ll be ending that one the same way. (hat tip to HA reader Agam)
Got an Obamateurism of the Day? If you see a foul-up by Barack Obama, e-mail it to me at [email protected] with the quote and the link to the Obamateurism. I’ll post the best Obamateurisms on a daily basis, depending on how many I receive. Include a link to your blog, and I’ll give some link love as well. And unlike Slate, I promise to end the feature when Barack Obama leaves office.
