If McCain is the Straight Talk Express, John Kerry was the Supersonic Truth Train

[DogPoundPup]

I don't even know what to say about John McCain anymore. Someone buy this man a corona and some tanning lotion because the only place I've seen more flip flops is at the freakin' beach.

His latest is just awesome. In CNN's Republican debate back in January moderated by Anderson Cooper, McCain was asked a point blank referendum on the Bush administration. "Are Americans better off than they were 8 years ago?" Cooper asked. McCain responded with a longwinded yes, although he cited many challenges and economic weaknesses, so many that Cooper actually became confused with his answer and paraphrased " It sounds like that we're not better off is what you're saying."

Again McCain answered " I think we are better off overall if you look at the entire eight-year period..."

Yet a mere 8 months later he airs an ad that states "Washington is broken. John McCain knows it. We're worse off than we were 4 years ago..."

What?? Did we really peak in Bush's first term? Let me understand this. We're better off over the 8 year period dating back to 2001 , but worse off since 2004, so 01 to 03 were the golden years? Oh yes, of course! 911 happened, which of course was awesome; the Anthrax scares, yup remember those; the SARS outbreak, I'm with you so far; The invasion of Iraq which you are right, it did go pretty well for the first 12 weeks and the insurgency was in its last throes by spring of '04; you've got me there. Wow this position is so consistent, not to mention easy to follow!
