MCCAIN: Do you still view al Qaeda in Iraq as a major threat?

PETRAEUS: It is still a major threat, though it is certainly not as major a threat as it was say 15 months ago.

MCCAIN: Certainly not an obscure sect of the Shi'ites overall?

PETREAUS: No.

MCCAIN: Or Sunnis or anybody else.

2. Maybe it's time we make an amendment for anyone to serve in government, period!!
This crazy old fart has a chance to be the next leader of this once great nation. Now, THAT'S a scary thought!

Again, sad that 48%+ of the American voters will support such a pathetic excuse for a leader to this country. We are a sick nation....very sick!

3. It was a major major threat.
Now it's a minor major threat. Although certainly not an obscure sect of the Shi'ites. Overall. Or Sunnis. Or anybody else.

Now vote for me.

4. How do I raise a bug report on his memory leak problem?
Bush3.0's brain code needs an urgent patch.

5. Update: McCain camp responds
http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/

*** UPDATE *** McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds responds: “In the course of having a serious dialogue with our military leadership in Iraq about how Americans can formulate success going forward, John McCain stumbled on his words and corrected them immediately. Leave it to Barack Obama, who voted against funding our troops in combat after saying it would be irresponsible to make that vote, to try and find some wiggle room on an issue he has very little credibility with.”
