Obama and Geography

I know, it isn’t “cool” to insult the intelligence of Barack Obama. So then, at whose feet should the blame be laid for this piece of idiocy? From barackobama.com, specifically his page laying out his foreign policy positions:

“Seek New Partnerships in Asia: Obama will forge a more effective framework in Asia that goes beyond bilateral agreements, occasional summits, and ad hoc arrangements, such as the six-party talks on North Korea. He will maintain strong ties with allies like Japan, South Korea and Australia…”

Um, Obama does know that Australia is not “in Asia,” right? He does know Australia is a continent separate from Asia, right? Or do they not teach geography at Harvard Law? Maybe he should have snorted coke off a globe.
