Mayo de Junio?

Feliz Cinco de Mayo! Or, as the president likes to say, "Happy Cuatro de Cinco!"

On the eve of the Mexican holiday, Obama on Monday had an event in the East Room of the White House with Mexico's Ambassador Arturo Sarukhan (sahr-oo-KHAN').

Obama joked that it was "Cinco de Cuatro," botching a play on the Spanish word for "four" when he meant to say "Cuatro de Mayo," or the Fourth of May. He tried again, but he still did not get it right.

Go kick a Frenchman and blame it on Mexico.

Well, I WAS thinking about kicking a Mexican and telling him to "pass it along" to a Frenchman, but Your way is just as doable.

I find it so refreshing to have the equivalent of a 10th grade student council president in the oval office. That's change alright.
