Re: The Pain in Spain Falls Mainly on McCain
Honestly the guy is not well. He is a shadow of what he used to be. I laughed the other day when a poster here posted a 'rumor' that mccain had Alzheimers. (Bless those who have this terrible disease)
Each passing day he does or says something that makes me think...."Damn Ronnie James Dio, he has contradicted himself in the same day" Maybe we should thread this out with things that McCain has had his MANY "Senior Moments" on during this campaign..
* On Feb. 28, McCain told the Baker Institute for Public Policy in Houston, Texas, “Al Qaeda is there [in Iraq], they are functioning, they are supported in many times, in many ways by the Iranians.”
* On March 17, McCain appeared on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show and said, “There are al Qaeda operatives that are taken back into Iran and given training as leaders and they’re moving back into Iraq.”
* On March 18, McCain held a press conference in Jordan in which he repeated the same claim, twice, including his insistence that it was “common knowledge and has been reported in the media that al-Qaeda is going back into Iran and receiving training and are coming back into Iraq from Iran, that’s well known.”
Eventually, McCain backpedalled, but only after Joe Lieberman whispered in his ear that he was wrong. Asked why he would repeatedly insist that Sunni al Qaeda was benefitting from training from Shiite Iran, McCain would only say he “misspoke.”
