Did anyone watch Dan Abrams' compilation video of McCain's mistaken statements on foreign policy?
Edited on Wed Jul-16-08 08:43 PM by jenmito
It should be turned into an ad against McCain. His segment, "Teflon John," just questioned why McCain is making so many "gaffes" re: foreign policy statements then showed a video he put together of him saying wrong things. You know-confusing Iraq and Iran, confusing Sudan and Somalia, calling Puting the president of Germany, etc. I hope it will be up on a website somewhere soon!

He then went on to say if it was OBAMA who even made ONE of those mistakes, it would get wall to wall coverage.

1. Sounds like something Keith would air - good for Dan!
Surely it'll show up on You Tube soon.

5. He DOES have his "Teflon John" segment. And he asked April Ryan, a reporter,
to make sure she holds McCain accountable like she would Obama. She dismissed it by saying he's held to a different standard probably because he's old and he just slipped up. So we should just let a senile guy get free passes so he becomes president???

6. I'm glad you saw it. Did you like the buzzer every time he made a mistake?
It was David Letterman-esque.

8. Yeah, that was great. I wish they would do more of these types of clips, like old game shows.
What's the name of this leader?

Uhhh, Putin?

*bzzzzzzzzzzz*

No, that was Merkel.


Or like Letterman does, "not a match, the board goes back."

Hahahahahaha!!

4. Turns out the foreign policy expert doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
This really is begging to be exploited. This is substantive stuff that matters.
