Did McCain Diss Spain?

[kaydee457 13]

Oh no, I hope not! He'll lose the spaniards vote!

Does he even know that?

Didn't stop him from campaigning in other parts foreign.

Uh, I "the ONE" has a lock on offshore campaigning.......

Funny thing is, we're not talking about your ONE. We're talking about senility and McCain and his loss of practical foreign politics.

I'd be worried if there was any real substance to this silly article. It's all subjective as it asks the question "did he".......

I say he did not, so there!

At this point, the interviewer gets tongue-tied presumably because she can't get over McCain not knowing what Spain is.

That's fair I suppose.

It may be silly to you, but its not the best way to show you care about your allies or that you're even aware of them. Allies with the ability to close contract on a US Naval base in their country.

He didn't 'diss' the Spanish PM so much as not know who the hell he was. The 'snub' wasn't that he wouldn't invite him to the WH, but that he thought the reporter was talking about a tin pot latin american dictator/drug lord. Now, while we can laugh at a mother who wants to pretend she's a 15yo cheerleader, we have to fawn over a PM candidate who doesn't know who's who on the world leader roll call. Yeah, I get it.

Your assertion assumes that what was said is a "dis".......subjective......

Bingo.

Real leadership and experience for the 21st century.

Read the Madame's previous post. And mine previous to that. If I wanted to say 'dis' then I'd have said it. Somewhere up there you'll notice the word 'aware' though. And yes... there is quite a lot of subjectivity in the argument... as to how our allies assume we know enough about them to warrant their support of our military presence in their countries while they may assume one of our potential leaders hasn't enough memory skills to distinguish between an allied NATO country and the very black/white descriptor of good vs evil that gets passed around some circles when referring to people in other governments that like to antagonize the current administration and its policies in Washington.

But yeah... there's a lot of assumption there.

Not to mention kaydee would be quite objective at discerning opinions anyways. He's pretty unbiased here.

Oh... but of course.

[kaydee457 13]

I have no bias.

Pwnt.

Edit: Of course, you could just also look an inch down on your screen below kaydee's posts (to his sig) to find out how unbiased he is.
