Glenn Beck: ‘Lets kill Obama’
Source: Raw Story

While discussing the U.S. raid that killed terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, Fox News host Glenn Beck said that “lets kill Obama” would not be “a tough call to make” before quickly correcting himself. Beck added that the president seemed “a little arrogant” during his speech on Sunday night, but deserves respect and thanks for the raid.

A number of others have made similar gaffes, including Geraldo Rivera and Keith Olbermann.

13. Some NBC reported tweeted "Obama is dead" Of course
it was an honest mistake. I have noticed that a lot of the press is using the Usabama spelling rather then the Osamba. Probably for that reason. I was told that America chose Osama after 911 because of the USA in Usamba.

5. Arrogant = uppity.
Bush was arrogant as hell, but a calm and measured person like Obama still has to deal with racist assholes.

8. I've made this mistake over the last two days.
Particularly when it first broke and I was excitedly discussing it with others.

12. I hate to say it but...
even Rachel did it last night for a second. I don't have a link but I definately heard it. But let us confuse this with the Faux crawl "mistakes" or the D instead of R for millions of pugs that fuck up...

14. As much as I think that Beck is nuts, I'll give him a pass on this one.
Plenty of people, on and off TV, made the same gaffe. After all, there is only one letter difference between both names. I did it too.

;-)

19. I caught a local AM radio guy doing it
He said "Obama is dead". He didn't hit the dump button fast enough to get it all, only the "ad" of dead. Then he said "Osama is dead." I don't think they're doing this on purpose.

20. That's why I just call him 'bin Laden'. Much easier, and I don't mix it up with anything.

18. Arrogant my ass
how about smirkey mcsmirk and his smoke em out we got them shit eating grin

President Obama said simply. Osama has been taken care of but we still have a job to do so lets go to work

No arrogance or bragging at all.
