Yet Another Obama Gaffe Ignored by the MSM

President Bush made yet another idiotic gaffe yesterday when he said that in a country that speaks German, he couldn't come up with the Austrian phrase for "wheeling and dealing."

Oh wait. It wasn't Bush, it was President Obama. Silly me.
In case you missed it:

At a news conference afterward, Obama said his debut on the international stage had convinced him that “political interaction in Europe is not that different from the United States Senate,” where he served before entering the White House.
“There’s a lot of -- I don’t know what the term is in Austrian -- wheeling and dealing, and people are pursuing their interests, and everybody has their own particular issues and their own particular politics,” he said in response to an Austrian reporter’s question.

It was a natural mistake right? I mean President Obama couldn't possibly be that stupid, right? Everybody knows that they speak German in Austria (also Slovene, Croatian and Hungarian) We all know there's only one man that could have possibly made that kind of goof.
It would seem so, because the MSM isn't telling anyone about this.
Gee, what a shock.

Yeah, yeah. I know there's a lot more to this story. Actually Obama was there trying to scrounge up support for (formally) the War on Terror. He was there to fix the rift happening in NATO. Credit given where credit is due. But where is Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews on this one. Ignoring it? Naturally.

He is the Untouchable after all. Bush was a moron, and Obama/Biden just make a few "slip ups" now and then. Get used to it...
