Oh yes, the unglued, and the idiotic...such as yourself.
The reason he didn't come up with 55, or 58, or 53 is because he was trying to say he had been to 47 states. Which he had been to. So obviously he did the math in his head and got the number 7.
That much is essentially indisputable.
Then Occam's razor becomes rather than drop 10 from 50 and add 7, giving the correct number, 47.....he simply added 7 to the 50, and got 57
To you Occam's razor means he said 57 where he meant to say 47, but said 57 as a Freudian slip thinking of the OIC an organization that meets what, once a year, doesn't contain all the Muslim countries, has other observer states....seriously...are you actually crazy enough to believe that sort of obvious nonsense?
I barely hear that, but that's from decades of dealing with my father, who does it at least 5 times more than Obama...seriously, and yep, it can be pretty annoying.
Try it over a phone call when you are trying to do other things. I love my dad, and there is no doubt he is brilliant, but I have to cut him off and be rude pretty often to say "Stop!, figure out the word, or the thought, and blurt it out...or I'm hanging up" Or "write down what you are thinking and call me back when you are done".
Obviously most of the time I would never say that to him, it's only when I'm busy or he's particularly worse than usual.
Obama is like nothing compared to him.
Man, my brother and I really were little shits to him on occasion. He would be fixing something in the house, obviously needing a screwdriver and say "Son, get me a...uh..um......uh....um", and we would start listing off random things
"Watermelon?"
"No...a....um"
"Sandwich?"
"No...a....um" (now turning his hand like using a screwdriver)
"Motorcycle?"
"No...not a motorcycle!...why would I say a motorcycle?"
"Well, your hand was moving like twisting a throttle"
"No I need a...um...ah"
"Noun."
"Yes a noun, but a specific non-proper noun which would be useful to drive a screw into the wall"
"Oh, like a screwdriver dad?"
"Yes, and grab me a hammer also"
"Ok dad, but why do you need a hammer?"
"To bash your skull in for going through this when you knew I needed a screwdriver"
"Sure dad, was that a Phillips or a flathead?"
"Er..um.........."
"I'll get both"
As we got older my brother and I would add more interesting to the list of guesses because they got better reactions...."Prostitute?"...."Condom?"...."Vibrat or?"
Wow did I get sidetracked, ah...fun memories
