Are Americans that clueless that they can’t tell the difference between Obama and Osama? One’s a terrorist and the other’s a democrat – I suppose Republicans do have a hard time telling the difference though!

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s last name is spelled “Osama” on some 300 absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County hilltowns.

The image is just shocking, how could three people miss it? Or did they … Republicans after all:

Republican officials were apologetic. “We have three different staff members who proof these things and somehow the typo got by us,” said Republican Commissioner Larry Bugbee. “We really apologize.”

Yes, we’re all sure you do. After all, a black Senator running for President can be quite difficult to distinguish from a bearded robed muslim extremist hiding in Pakistan Afghanistan.
