One Conventional Bomb Can Ruin Your Whole Day

Taranto on the latest Obagaffe

We’ll give you three guesses which political leader said this:

Throughout our history, America’s confronted constantly evolving danger, from the oppression of an empire, to the lawlessness of the frontier, from the bomb that fell on Pearl Harbor, to the threat of nuclear annihilation. Americans have adapted to the threats posed by an ever-changing world.

Hint: The speaker was born in Hawaii. Thinking that perhaps it was a transcription error, we checked the video, and sure enough, he actually said “the bomb.” Could our speaker be mixing up Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima, or Nagasaki? In any case, it’s perhaps the biggest Pearl Harbor goof since Sept. 7, 1988, when George H.W. Bush got the month of the attack wrong.

    Now that would have been classic
