In his interview with NBC's Kelly O'Donnell, which will air on NBC's Nightly News tonight, McCain questions whether Obama should have given a speech in Berlin before becoming president. However, on June 20, McCain himself gave a speech in Canada.

          To be fair, we're talking about a speech McCain gave on June 20, 2008. You can't expect him to remember that far back.

            You know, I REALLY get a kick out of the people who bring up the '57 states 'especially since they are USUALLY the same people who start SCREAMING when McCain's '100 year in Iraq' are brought up. Then when you ADD that most Obama supporters at lease acknowledge that he did say it (unlike the McCain's who say he DIDN'T say the 100 years) it gets even funnier.

            According to you "must have been hitting the acid a little hard." So what EXACTLY was McCain smoking when he said (not ONCE)

            1) Czechoslovakia should reevaluate who they make deals with (said twice) OR
            2) The Shi'as in Iran were supporting the Sunni's of al-Qaeda (said 4 times in 5 days while IN the Middle East) OR
            3) That the Iraq/Pakistan boarder needs to be controlled (you do know that Iraq's boarder is 700 miles FROM Pakistan....right?) OR
            4) That the war in Iraq, as the first major conflict since the attacks of 9/11, can not be lost - you do know that the war in Afghanistan was "the first major conflict since 9/11" - don't you?

            But my favorite "but I do like Cindy. A very nice lady." That wouldn't be ......drug user, embezzler THAT Cindy McCain? The same Cindy McCain who committed those crimes while a WIFE of a US Senator.....THAT Cindy McCain?

            And let's not forget "As to the surge, I supported it but I can't tell you when it started and my wife is over there."

            If that is true then you and McCain are the ONLY ones.

            Until McCain tried to dig himself out of the hole he was in (because of that days verbal blunder) no one (Bush, Petraeus, Cheney AND McCain) EVER suggested or implied that the 'surge' did not start until January 2007 when Bush first started suggesting a escalation of troops.

            BTW- Why don't you (and McCain) get out a dictionary and look up 'surge'? EVERY definition says increase, forward, upward, rise. NO WHERE does it suggest that 'clear & hold', 'strategy' would constitute a 'surge'. NOTHING, except the INCREASE of troops (in anyones mind EXCEPT McCain) would constitute a 'surge'.

              Now, that was both funny and true!

              This man forgot that Czechoslovakia was no longer a country. He was talking about it in the present tense.... later he was corrected.

              He forgot when the surge started (Fox News was mum on that one.

                Yes and where would Osama be without his teleprompter?

                You libs have some audacity to point out Bush and McCain's slip ups when you're "golden boy" rock star has had plenty of "uh...uh.....well....uh..." during many interviews...

                Do I need to list some examples so you can shut your pie hole? I believe I can find a few MP3's if you'd like....

                  Guys, with a guy like Obama, you're going to talk? He claims to have visited all 57 states, must have been hitting the acid a little hard. Had a friend over to his home that went to prison for blowing up an FBI building. Funny, they executed McVeigh for that. As to the surge, I supported it but I can't tell you when it started and my wife is over there.

                  I think it's time to really talk about the candidates. Obama has less experience than Dan Quayle yet you folks are all over this guy. What has he actually done? I've tried searching this out but all I've been able to find are puff pieces on how he supports the people and is a friend of the people. What people? The poor of his community? They've gotten poorer since he's been in office, both state and federal. His social activism, I can't find what he's done. Where are the shelter's he's built? Where are the soup kitchens he's funded? Where are the school's he's built? Where is a child he's taken in and adopted? Nothing. Can't find a single case. Perhaps it's not properly marked on line but I think if it existed, he'd have it available.

                  McCain has done all of this. I'm not a fan of John's, but I do like Cindy. A very nice lady. Again, what has Barack done?

                  Obama has accomplished something no other person of color has gotten close to, securing the nomination to be President of the United States. What's McBush's greatest accomplishment? Dumping his loyal wife for rich hottie Cindy. Maybe that makes McBush presidential material for the penis-challenged like BB and other similar regressives here. But the indisputable fact is that our only rational, functional choice for president is between two individuals, Obama and McBush. The first is filled with vibrant energy, and casts a striking contrast to the current monkey brained degenerate. The latter is an almost senile replication of said monkey brained degenerate. Only a brain and penis challenged regressive would even suggest this "choice" is anything but "no-brainer."

                  Peech,

                  Lame ? Please check your pathetic candidate before you start spreading your lies....He has done nothing, brings nothing to the table and offers no solutions...He's a fake and a fraud and you're just as ignorant wanting to vote for this loser....

                  I guess picking the leader of this great country means NOTHING to you....If it did, you would know better than to vote for Osama....Hillary I could see...Osama doesn't make sense to anyone except you and 200,000 germans who showed up mostly for the rock show....

                  I thought the speech was alright... not amazing. I think the German reaction to the speech can help combat the feeling in the United States right now that everyone hates the United States... they hate Bush. That's a big difference and most of the US hates/disapproves of Bush as well if his approval rating is an indication.

                  In order to garner the media attention, McBush must attack. Untrue or distorted, illogical smears is one way but if you can't stay on message it won't stick. Everytime he speaks, it's a different story because he gets his facts wrong half of the time (I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt) and instead of admitting to making gaffes, he has to invent more misfacts to explain his mistakes. Just like the guy he's cloned from...Bush.

                    What about his trip to Iraq, Jordan and England right after he became the "Presumptive" Nominee? I can understand why McCain would forget that trip (it was a few months ago), but why isn't anyone calling him on that?

                      Because that trip was a long time ago, at least in his mind. A "senior moment" for McCain.

                      Its funny listening to the criticism of Obama's speeches!

                      McCain's forte is 'The Surge', a subject he knows very little about and attributes any iota of success in Iraq to the idea of a surge. Hilarious.

                      He is a one trick pony, well, at least he has more tricks than Bush, that must be why the 15%ers support him - CHANGE! More hilarity.

                        McCain baerely gets his sentences right. He's starting to show early signs of a disoriented senior.

                        I hope he chooses Guliani as his running mate. They can share geritol moments on the way to the "big loss."

                          Perhaps McCain is suggesting that since his international trips to South America, to Europe, to Mexico, to South America don't count since their effect was so minimal.

                                  Let's keep a running tally between who makes the most gaffes between Obama and McBush. Whoever has the least can be President.

                                  That would be another way for Obama to win.

                                  The only way for McBush to win would be a Diebold victory.
