Um...people....John McCain actually called Putin the President of Germany

[Bread and Circus]

That's not just an honest mistake. I'm sorry but that is like a Bushism, only worse. I don't even think George W. Bush would have made a mistake like that. If this guy gets elected he will be the biggest puppet ever. Either he is a huge sham and really does not know foreign policy or he truly has dementia (and I suspect is the latter). My heart goes out to him and his family but when you say that Putin is the President of Germany, that is just not excusable.

Even considering putting him anywhere near the White House is a moral outrage. He is frankly unsafe.

1. JM is stupid.

[Occam Bandage]

2. Link? Quote?

29. What no more backrubs for Angie?

:rofl:

McInsane is just that. A doddering old fart.

[Barack_America]

3. That's, like, a BRAZILIAN gaffes already! And it's only June!

Sweet.

[Carrieyazel]

8. Its a gaffe from last year. Posted on YouTube back then.

The MSM must have totally missed it.

[ORDem]

28. McCain = Gaffe-O-Matic nt

[JerseygirlCT]

4. Yes, either way, that kind of stupid is inexcusable. And I do

hope that the country has learned that lesson by now!

(edited to add: as is my typo! Use the glasses to read, and you can't read the computer screen...)

11. When - Where - Source??? That is pretty bad!

[Carrieyazel]

5. YouTube video is a year old. I was hoping this was a recent gaffe.

Don't expect the MSM to even touch it.

[Barack_America]

9. It can be new to you.

Recycling is a good thing! ;)

[Bread and Circus]

10. They probably won't but the fact remains this guy is entirely unsafe.

It's literally scary.

[DeschutesRiver]

14. I can't get dialup to do youtube

Can someone give me details? I want to pass this on to dh, but it just sounds so fantastical. How bad was it - what were his exact words? Thx.

ETA: I used to think he was a doddering old fuddy duddy, with a hair trigger Irish temper, stupid, a bit sleazy given his role in the Savings and Loan failures. I am beginning to think he is a completely deceitful fricking fraud.

[Carrieyazel]

18. From what I recall he said that "I was in a conference

in Germany, and President Putin of Germany said........................."

This should have been used much earlier. This is from February 2007 when he just kicked off his primary campaign. This isn't going to help. MSM never touched it, and unless he made this gaffe after he clinched the nom, don't expect it to get resurrected.

[DeschutesRiver]

27. Thanks.

It may be too late to use it, but likely once this GE race gets into full swing, the pressure cause him to do more of this, if this is a chronic thing.

7. 894/899

Atleast Bush could maintain a C.

[Veritas et Ratio]

12. And. . .

Obama referred to visiting 57 states. Mistakes happen. There's so many things of substance (scary substance, but substance nonetheless) McCain has said, that it's ridiculous to be focusing on stupid little verbal miscues.

[DesertRat]

15. Defending McSame

with 16 posts and a hidden profile? Are you sure you're in the right place?

[Window]

20. John McWar makes mistakes almost daily...stupid mistakes.

This man absolutely cannot be allowed to become POTUS!

I don't know about you, but I don't want him anywhere near the button, suitcase, football...whatever it's called for that 3 A.M. phone call.

[bluedawg12]

24. It's a pattern--too much of a pattern--too much at stake

for Geopolitical bloopers---we've had 8 years of that.

[DesertRat]

13. We can't take another 4 years of Bush gaffes

:banghead:

[opihimoimoi]

17. 4 More Years of GAFFES??? OMG.....how could we??? Easy,vote Red

[DesertRat]

19. What?

[opihimoimoi]

22. That is to say, IF idiots who wish 4 more fucked up years...they should vote Red

Why peeps out there would want 4 more fucked up years is beyond this guys comprehension...

[DesertRat]

23. Agreed!

:thumbsup:

16. He's senile, (youtube link for those who don't have it)

21. OMG.....McCain is out of Touch with Reality....he carries the 4 more years of Conservatism which

allows him, as President, to appoint more Conservative Justices...negating the Courts Objectivity....it will end up as a Partisan Court telling us how to live the Conservative way....

4 More Years of Pub Crap....

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

25. McLame is making quite a "Best Of" of really elementary foreign policy gaffes...

String 'em together and you have a pretty powerful argument that he's incompetent.

[jazzjunkysue]

26. First it's racism, then it's sexism. I call this dumbism.

And it's well deserved.

Just imagine, they're in the situation room, "Mr. President, we have a situation. A missile with an unknown payload has just been launched from Syria."

Gramps: "Well, get Jacques Chirac on the phone and find out why he's trying to attack California!"
