This thread is for the posting of vids or articles re: all the various and sundry McCain-based gaffes/scandals ... to address the issues the MSM refuses to.

I'll start. Found this vid on Huff Po and have warm feelings about it. This man is mentally unfit for POTUS.

PS Someone will probably try and counter by posting Obama's "57 State" gaffe. That's fine, but will do nothing to dilute the argument against McCain's repeated display of serious cognitive dysfunction.

Chipmunk Stew, just noticed you have a similar theme in a latest thread. Hope you don't mind me making this the official thread - for the sake of consoliding all the vids. Not even sure this idea will work.

Can this be moved to the Anyone Who Posts Here Un-Ironically Must Be Banned Immediately Forum?

Oh just wait until some french Canadians will show up with a mocking side-remark... :D

So this thread is just about Videos and Articles? ... Because I'd actually would like to collect the Gaffe's itself in written form as well... Since they're so many Gaffe's by now, I can't even keep track anymore.

All Candidates make mistakes. Only a couple of months ago, liberal reporter Jake Tapper dubbed Obama the one-man gaffe machine (http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/05/what-the-farc-w.html). It's the nature of having to talk for hours every day. To the extent that particularly gullible people believe that McCain's indicate senility it may have some small effect on the campaign.

BTW, is Probe X like a one-note wonder? Look back at his posts and they all seem to have the same theme: McCain drooling on his bran flakes.

Since when have you been allowed to deem that your threads are 'official'?

Here's another one (http://www.politico.com/blogs/jonathanmartin/0808/McCain_prescient_on_Russia.html):

When violence broke out in the Caucasus on Friday morning, John McCain quickly issued a statement that was far more strident toward the Russians than that of President Bush, Barack Obama and much of the West.

That is, it was a strident gaffe when he said it, but no longer:

But, as Russian warplanes pounded Georgian targets far beyond South Ossetia this weekend, Bush, Obama and others have moved closer to McCain's initial position.

Lately the abnormally plentiful McCain gaffes have been slipping under the radar of the MSM ... so yes, I'm drawing attention them. It's getting under your skin, so my guess is that if I reviewed your posts, I'd find a variety of anti-Obama posts ;) ? And yes, McCain does drool in his flakes, and that fact needs to be exploited for all its worth. Senile men don't make effective presidents.

... Since I attained my freedom of speech.

Lighten up. You'll age better.
