In a recent TV interview, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) criticized CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, saying he didn’t know what was going on in Iraq. As proof of progress, McCain claimed, “General Petraeus goes out there almost every day in an unarmed humvee.” Tonight in a 60 Minutes interview, McCain acknowledged that statement was a lie. He said “there is no unarmored humvees. Obviously, that’s the case.” He excused himself, saying, “I’m trying to make the point over and over and over again that we are making progress.”
McCain also previously claimed that there are neighborhoods that you can walk around freely, claiming his heavily-armed stroll through a Baghdad market was an example. Tonight, McCain said he can “understand why they would provide me with that security.”
“Of course I’m gonna misspeak,” McCain said. “I’ve done it on numerous occasions. And I probably will in the future. I regret that when I divert attention to something that I’ve said from my message. But that’s just life.
And I’m happy, frankly, with the way I operate. Otherwise it’d be a lot less fun.”

You get what you give out in life. McCain has and had ambitions. He was married with two children, then a POW. Returning home he saw the light/money and while married dated a pretty 26 year old rich girls. Her Daddy brought her a husband and kids. Yes the ex Mrs. McCain couldn't fight the money. So John and his new rich wife lived the American dream and her Daddy got John to be Senator. Yes money can buy anything in America. But greed and hate brings other things too. Now McCain has dementia and looks/sounds like the fool he is. Even his wife's money can't buy him the Presidentcy. Be careful what you wish for and how many people you hurt along the way to get it. Satan gave McCain what he wanted then God showed him what the cost was. Lifes lessons to remember.
The intelligent people will not cast a vote for McCain, he has no chance of getting the nomination for GOP, no chance if he keeps this up.
McCain is finished. Right now, he is riding a dead horse Presidential campaign. And he keeps harping about the issue of his age. The age thing is not my concern about McCain. It is his mentality and lies. Conyers and Rangel are in their 70's. His rhetetic of stay the course in Iraq will seal McCain's fate.
