Is there any doubt that this President OWNS all his actions, good or bad? A nice sign that we are no longer being ruled by a self-appointed Republican King

1. if the oops was "Cinco de quatro" then it wasn't an oops
it was a joke because it was May 4. If you think it's a bad joke, it could have been worse, he could have said Happy Star Wars Day. :-)

3. I wish I could be in places appoaching infinity;
So I could laugh at all the freepers wanting and needing to get drunk today and not being able to because of Obana's excellent send off to cinco de mayo!

4. This is what I found for Mayo;
There are many stories related to the sinking of the "Titanic". Some have come to light due to the success of movie. For example, most people don't know that back in 1912 Hellman's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. The "Titanic"was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after New York City.

The Mexican people were eagerly awaiting delivery and were disconsolate at the loss. So much so that they declared a national day of mourning which they still observe today. It is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

Sounds like a half-witted attempt at a racial-linguistic joke, but that's me.
