Great list of Obama blunders

Gleefully stolen from Big Government, from commenter Sefton. I'll put more in here, adding to it as time goes by. Oh, and by the way...more from your precious Obumbler:

"I've been in 57 states...I think one left to go."

Gives a gift of incorrectly formatted DVD's to Gordon Brown
Names a tax cheat as Treasury Secretary
In introductions, forgets the name of his own Secretary of Defense
Tries to open a White House window thinking it's a door
Brain-freeze trying to figure out how to maneuver an umbrella through a gate

Confuses the Constitution for the DoI in his own SOTU speech (the supposed Constitutional scholar)
Cites the Constitution as having been written "twenty centuries" ago
In his own words, he's apparently able to see dead people in the audience (sounds like Dem vote counting)
