Just a quickie. This clearly has been a bad, bad week for U.S. Sen. John McCain, but I think he hit rock bottom with his tortured -- and just plain wrong -- description of the surge in Iraq at a press conference in the cheese aisle -- the cheese aisle -- of a supermarket. McCain, a true military hero, was supposed to be the candidate strong on national defense.
It was supposed to be a wedge issue, an extra sharp distinction between him and U.S. Sen. Barack Obama. Instead, he's left standing in front of plastic packages of neon colored cheese slices. McCain looked even more overripe than usual under the bright fluorescent lights. He looked whey bad. The grating episode got started when McCain -- blinking even more than ususal -- did an interview with Katie Couric and shredded the surge timeline. Strangely, CBS sliced the gaffe right out. But in the world of blogging and YouTube, it quickly ripened, finding its way to the political surface in no time; CBS quickly aired it in its entirety.
MSNBC's Keith Olbermann highlighted the fromage case presser with a handy-dandy timeline. You can watch it here:
McCain's wheel down the cheese aisle may seem funny, but this is no laughing matter. This is only the latest in a series of frightening mistakes that curdles my blood. The bottom rind: this man is not fit to be president.
Hold The Cheese Please
John McCain is obviously not an expert on foreign affairs. He is incapable of remembering and repeating even the most elementary aspects of any foreign policy; the names of the leaders or parties involved, or the geography and history of the regions in question.
The main tent poles of the McCain Campaign are infested with with the termites of truth and are crumbling fast. If you think he is a Viet Nam hero you are under informed.
"McSame's MIA Bomb" is a collection of videos that cover the truth about his capture and captivity in Viet Nam as well as his disservice to POW/MIA and veterans issues. The videos include testimonials by Dr. Joseph Douglas Jr., Tracy Usry former Chief Investigator US Senate, Senator Bob Smith (R-NH), Representative Bob Dornan (R-CA), Al Santoli American Foreign Policy Council, Former Congressional Chief of Staff, Corporal Bob Dumas US Army (Ret), Dr. James Lucier former US Senate Chief of Staff, and Lt. Col. Earl Hopper Special Forces Intelligence (Ret.).

Obama supporters NEED to get involved in the campaign, reach out to your friends, family, and co-workers. This country CAN NOT afford, on any level, to be saying could of, would of, should of after the election in November.
