Comments on: McCain Mixes Up Iraqi Groups

Washington Post: While In Jordan, Senator Misstates Which Extremists Are Aided by Iran

[parrot123-2009]

Pressed to elaborate, McCain said it is "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. And it''''s unfortunate."

A few moments later, Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.), standing just behind McCain, stepped forward and whispered in his ear. McCain then said, "I''''m sorry, the Iranians are training extremists, not al-Qaeda."

The sad part is that we''ve seen alot of Repugs make this mistake in supporting Dumbya''s Iranian policy - it''ll be very good for this country if Repugs tried to educate themselves on these issues rather than just believing everything on Faux. Cheers!

O my God! This man is way too close to being president!!!

[rushlimpdrug]

In simple terms I would say that to understand the players in a war gives a leader perspective on how to win it.

This clown is the best the repubs could come up with?

What a shame!

[singingrick]

Wow, McCain is sounding more like Bush every day!

[rushlimpdrug]

Of course the republican voters are more interested in the ssex lives of democrats than a war involving Americans.
That and they just HAVE to see Hillary''s tax return and doings when she was first lady -
-tax returns! - tax returns!

and the diference between a shiite and extremist?
Who cares?
We just have to see Hillary''s tax return.
Go figure.
Thanks Tim for going after the hard stories.

Any doubts about the liberal media have been removed.....

"My dear Friends as I get older I''ll forget even more"..McCain as president talk about scary just look at your grand parents his age..they mean well....but!!!

This is a very telling eye opener. Hopefully Am voters are paying attention. Besides now having a pretty good idea who McSame''s likely running mate and string puller will be, we also have confirmation of his senility and lack of understanding of the Iraq situation. Thanks you John for spilling the beans! Nice backfire! Makes the racial and gendor issues on the Dem side seem as insignificant now as they really are. A sound mind is a must for the presidency...something we haven''t seen in almost 8 years.

This is telling several things including:

1. The press KNOWS this man is absolutely not qualified and has a hard time hiding the fact.

2.Seniority in congress is a BAD thing after soo many years.

3. Tim Russert should press John like he does Hillary with a pop quiz to see if the man is qualified to be president.

Just great. This guy has international incidents written all over him.

[rowdytexan2]

Geezus, what happens when he forgets and invades the wrong country?

[rushlimpdrug]

"John McCain misspoke and immediately corrected himself"

Instant replay of the tape shows the old farrt being corrected by LIE-berman.
Guess McCain and LIE-berman are one and the same.

[armydog2]

dementia setting in!

[karela33]

Senator McCain has frequently mis-spoken or been a little confused. Now we send Lieberman or some other to monitor and coach him? I appreciate what John McCain suffered for my country. It is also true that he is seriously elderly and he won''t get any younger in the next four years. This is dangerous for America.

[rushlimpdrug]

I''m looking for all the reetard repub posters to write something witty about this incident.
Guess they''re all wetting their Depends also.

Either that or they forgot their log in names.

[briannorwood]

And by the way, I hope when the Democrats solidify their majority in November, they strip Joe (the traitor) Leiberman of every committee position he has!

[briannorwood]

Sounds like a "senior momemt" to me. You know how these old folks can get a little "funny" sometimes!

[rushlimpdrug]

I am embarrased for my country.

This man is running for presiden of the U.S. and doesn''t know what is going on with the war?

If we don''t know the enemy how can we win?

Does he even know where he is?
I have a suspicion he thinks he is on the Arizona-Mexico border.

[rushlimpdrug]

LIEberman, "John, shiite is the stuff you have in your depends"

John: "Yeah, that the extremist I''m talking about, right?"

LIEberman: "No John, that would be excrementt."

John: "Well dammitt, let''s just sing the Bomb Iran song."

[oscarez]

Oh my GOD. We need this guy as our president like we all need a hole in our heads. If you vote for him you must have a hole in your head. He should be tested for Alzheimer%u2019s disease.
