Which Gates? Obama flubs defense chief's name
1 day ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama sees his secretary of defense just about every day, but he still flubbed Robert Gates' name on Thursday.

Gates was in the crowd for Obama's national security speech. Pointing him out, the president said "William Gates" was on hand. Perhaps Obama was thinking of Bill Gates, the Microsoft billionaire.

The defense chief, who goes by Bob, was also misidentified at a Pentagon ceremony on Tuesday. Then, he was introduced as Ronald Gates.

Gates joked then that he had recently been introduced as Bill Gates. "He's the rich one," Gates cracked.

"Oh my God! Our president is an IDIOT! He doesnt even know who the defense secretary is!!! How did we elect this retard?!!"

These are the comments we would have heard had Bush made the same flub.

This retard is just a left winger who dreams of geese laying gold eggs, but it's not a bad idea to adopt Gates into the cabinet, the secretary of Finance apartment seems like a perfect fit for this billionaire.

Obama says his top priority is keeping America safe yet he does not know the name of the secretary of defense. Sad.

Obama just considers the SOD job should be given to someone whose name is Gates. Since Rams retired from pentagon, this position has been occupied by Gates, now Barack just needs to replace the old one with a new Gates, with the hope of using the "Gates" to keep terrorists outdoor. The only difference is the prior Gates is not as known as the later one, who used to have the most zeros under his belt.
