McCain accidentally tells truth, backpedals

Sure, I’ll take 5 minutes off from writing the worst research paper of my life to keep the McCain ball rolling…

I don’t know if anyone noticed, but yesterday in Colorado, Senator McCain said he has an energy policy “which will eliminate our dependence on oil from the Middle East that will prevent us from having ever to send our young men and women into conflict again in the Middle East.”

Sounds about right.  Most people would agree that oil has something to do with why we are in Iraq right now, and would like to see a change so it doesn’t happen again.  Way to talk straight John.

But, today he had to backtrack, saying “No, no, I was talking about that we had fought the Gulf War for several reasons.”

Oh okay, makes more sense.  When most people today talk about conflict in the Middle East, they are totally referring to Operation Desert Storm.  Really, why should he need to clarify?  Silly over-sensitive GOPers getting upset because they thought he was being honest about something…

    I knew he meant the Gulf War, the one that lasted like 3 weeks, not the war that’s going on now and has been for 5 years. Duh!
