Bob McCarty Writes

The video above captures Barack Obama telling an audience at a recent campaign event in Beaverton, Ore., that he had visited 57 states during his 2008 campaign. Knowing this country has only 50 United States, I decided to explain the seven mystery “states” the Democrat presidential candidate might have visited:

#1. STATE OF CONFUSION — Not ot be confused with his home state of Illinois, the State of Confusion is where Barack Obama leaves many of his liberal followers who, during the weeks since the election, have expressed dismay over the positions he’s taken and the people he’s selected to become high-ranking members of his administration;

#2. STATE OF DENIAL — Though Barack Obama won’t admit it, the State of Denial (a.k.a., “Russia”) is where many of his radical left-wing socialist ideas have their roots;

#3. STATE OF OF DISBELIEF — It’s the state in which many Americans find themselves after learning that a U.S. senator and Harvard Law School graduate thinks spending more than $1 trillion is the solution to the nation’s economic crisis;

#4. STATE OF DISCONTENT — It’s home to bitter churchgoers who do little beyond sitting at home and clinging to their guns and religion;

#5. STATE OF EUPHORIA — It’s home to people who find Obama’s empty promises so appealing, in fact, that they have two state mottos:  “Hope” and “Change”;

#6. STATE OF ISRAEL — Though Obama is not welcome in this state and wishes it didn’t exist, he has reportedly entered Israel — accompanied by Jimmy Carter and members of Hamas — through underground tunnels that connect the Jewish state with Gaza; and

#7. STATE OF SHOCK — It’s the state in which Americans find themselves after experiencing a rapid and precipitous decline in the standard of living to which they became accustomed during the Ronald Reagan years.
