Obama's 64 Mistakes In 60 Days

The 1901 Michigan Wolverines may have scored a point a minute, but that offense was nothing compared to the offensive way Barack Obama is scarring the political and economic landscape. He's the Marino of Misjudgement, the Elway of Errors, the Bradshaw of Blunders.

Don Surber has compiled a list of 64 mistakes that Obama has made in 60 days . . . wait, it's been more then 60 days so the list continues to grow. Read 'em and weep (and if you love your country get ready for the crocodile tears).
