lol: “I Don’t Speak Austrian” — Barack Obama

You’re telling me …

In Strasbourg, France, Barack Obama told the audience that he doesn’t know what the term for ‘wheeling and dealing’ is in “Austrian” — watch the video here.

Obama seems to have thought he was in Strasburg, Austria.

UPDATE: The question Obama is answering came from a reporter who identified herself as an Austrian, so evidently he wasn’t making the mistake of confusing Strasbourg for Strasburg. Oh well. It would have been funny if he had.

    Austrian – now that is funny!!!
    You would think as the President he knows that in Austria the people speak German. Is he not a friend of Arnold Schwarzenegger?
