obambi grew up in hawaii so you’d think the dark days of pearl harbor would be in his dna somewhere right?  well another gaffe rolled off his tongue when speaking in indiana this week on national security no less.  here is the video and the pearl harbor comment is in the first couple of minutes:

a BOMB didn’t drop on pearl, a whole slew of them did as wave upon wave of over 300 japanese aircraft raided our base and in essence our pacific fleet.  by the time it was over, more then 2,300 were killed and about that many injured.  the threat however wasn’t just a “raid” but rather losing the entire pacific to the japanese. 

this is just another example of his superficiality and his willingness to use significant historical places like brandenburg gate and now pearl harbor and historical events like liberating concentration camps without fully understanding what they mean to us as a nation – he can’t even get details correct!
 
considering his propensity for “misunderstanding history” and “re-inventing his stance on policies” maybe his upcoming “rock tour” to europe and the middle east could be fun to watch after all.
