New gaffe: Obama hails America's historic building of 'the Intercontinental Railroad'

New gaffe: Obama hails America's historic building of 'the Intercontinental Railroad' - latimes.com
"We’re the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad," Barack Obama.

That's what the president of the United States flat-out said Thursday during what was supposed to be a photo op to sell his jobs plan next to an allegedly deteriorating highway bridge.

A railroad between continents?
A railroad from, say, New York City all the way across the Atlantic to France?
Now, THAT would be a bridge!

It's yet another humorous gaffe by the Harvard graduate, overlooked by most media for whatever reason. Like Obama saying Abraham-Come-Lately Lincoln was the founder of the Republican Party.
Or Navy corpseman.
Or the Austrian language.
Fifty-seven states.
The president of Canada. Etc.
