...credentials when he visits the 51st through 57th U. S. States.
Oops! White House fails basic geography test (http://whitehouse.blogs.cnn.com/2011/09/27/oops-white-house-fails-basic-geography-test/)
Looks like someone in the White House press office needs to brush up on his or her U.S. geography.
The press office issued credentials to those reporters and photojournalists who are covering the president’s trip this week to Washington state, California, and Colorado. The credential even provides a handy graphic highlighting (in white) which states the president will visit.
The only problem?
Wyoming is highlighted, not Colorado. To be fair, both states are rectangular, nearly identical in size, and stacked next to each other. But we doubt our third grade teachers would buy that!
