From talking about Al Qaeda when he in fact should have said "shiite extremists", to calling Putin the president of Germany and now talking about a state that seized to exist 15 years ago. What's next?


McCain is an expert on military policy, not so much foreign policy.
Who cares if McCain is showing signs of age? At least we know he likes this country. Obama scares me because he refuses to wear an American Flag pin. I know it sounds like a stupid reason to distrust him, but I have good reason. Its kinda weird how the media asks him why he doesn't wear the pin, and he dodges the question. The media points out every week that he does not wear it, and he still DOES NOT WEAR IT. It's like the picture I saw on these forums earlier where all the candidates are standing with their hands over their hearts, and Obama is standing there with his hands clasped in front of him.

There is something wrong with that guy, and I don't trust him because he talks about loving America, but fails to show it.

McCain on the other hand has some very minor problems. Calling Shiite Extremists Al-Queda? They are closely related because we have evidence to show that they are working together. Czeckoslovakia? (I butchered the spelling) it only ceased to exist under that name. The Czech Republic is the exact same freaking country, just with a different name and government. Even I get the two mixed up sometimes, and I'm a young student with a fascination with history and politics. It's like Istanbul and Constantinople.
