The Continental?

While in Ohio, speaking about the bridge that's not a shovel ready project, President Obama said --

We’re the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad, the Interstate Highway System.

"Wow! Wowie-wow-wow-wow!"

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

Maybe he's looking to connect with our 57th or 58th states.

Maybe he just over-suggested.

Although, it's looking like he might have stolen the intercontinental railroad phrase from the intellectual geniuses at the New York Times.
