There are so many news stories from yesterday and today The Swamp hasn't touched--for example, how the Obama administration has known for months about the AIG bonuses. But instead I'll offer up yet another example of how President GaffeMaster can't even handle the simplest of tasks. From the AP:

"RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — [The president of Brazil's] meet and greet with the U.S. president was bumped to Saturday, and when the White House announced his official visit, they misspelled his name.

...
the White House made several moves interpreted as snubs by the Brazilian media.

Silva aides said the trip was pushed forward from Tuesday because of the St. Patrick's Day holiday — making Latin America once again look like an afterthought. Then, the White House announcement misspelled his name as "Luis Ignacio" and put "Lula" — a nickname that decades ago became a legal part of the Brazilian leader's name — in quotes.

The White House quickly corrected the mistake."


Today Bobby Jindal will reveal the Republicans' NCAA tourney brackets; and tomorrow Jindal will have to apologize to Rush Limbaugh for agreeing with some of Obama's predictions.
