McCain makes a fool of himself once again

[Popeye]

It could be his Alzheimers kicking in again or maybe he's just plain ignorant, but the so called "foreign policy expert" managed to mispronounce the name of the President of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, three times the other day.

Then to make matters worse, it appears as if McCain plagiarized his speech on the Georgia crisis from Wikipedia:

Really, out of 300 million people this is the best the right can come up with for their president? This is disgusting!

Yes I agree it is disgusting, to say McCain is past his prime is putting it nicely. You have to remember that the vast majority of Americans are either Democrats or independents., most of us don't buy into the right wing propaganda. That said, there's really no excuse for electing a man like George Bush twice.

Putting it simply, I really see two reasons for such a mistake...one, many American voters are ignorant, they often vote against their interests allowing negative campaign ads or even outright lies to influence their vote. Secondly, the red states are dragging the country down. It's no wonder they vote Republican, as they generally consist of bigoted, poorly educated individuals.
