“On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience here today — our sense of patriotism is particularly strong.”
To be fair to Barack Obama, it’s the kind of mistake any politician could make, but it’s an amusing screw-up nonetheless. After reading about this gaffe, and others, in more detail, I’ve come to the conclusion that he’s just a stupid politician.

“It’s the kind of mistake any politician could make”?
True — but how will the media react if MCCAIN makes a similar mistake during the general election campaign?
“Too old” etc?

His whole speech was about Veterans benefits, not honoring the dead. He doesn’t know the difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day.
Seems like he also said his uncle helped liberated Auschwitz at the end of WWII. Auschwitz was liberated by the Russian Army, not US forces.

Robert:
Perhaps it was this Russian uncle who inspired his love of communism/socialism, then? Just wondering.
