One might think Mr. Obama was just tired, and instead of saying "47" he said "57."
However, thanks to Rep. Louie Gomert (R-TX) we have the real answer:
"And I know the President made the mistake one day of saying he had visited all 57 states, and I'm well aware that there are not 57 states in this country, although there are 57 members of OIC, the Islamic states in the world. Perhaps there was some confusion whether he'd been to all 57 Islamic states as opposed to all 50 U.S. states. But nonetheless, we have an obligation to the 50 American states, not the 57 Muslim, Islamic states. Our oath we took is in this body, in this House. And it's to the people of America. And it's not to the Muslim Brotherhood, who may very well take over Egypt and once they do, they are bent upon setting up a caliphate around the world, including the United States. And this administration will been complicit in helping people who wants to destroy our country."
As Forrest Gump said, that's all I have to say about that!
Good luck to all,
