When asked about Spain and Zapatero, by a Spanish reporter for a Spanish newspaper, McCain responded about Mexico and Latin America. A reader suggested something that Josh had already considered, that perhaps McCain thought the reporter was talking about the Zapatistas in Mexico, the guerilla group. But that's not possible as the reporter clearly said she was talking about Spain and Spain's leader, Zapatero. She told McCain this twice. Let me tell you exactly what she asked McCain (per the translation):

"Senator, finally, let's talk about Spain. If you're elected president, would you invite President Zapatero to meet with you in the White House?"

McCain then gives this odd answer about America's friends and America's enemies. He also, oddly, talks about Mexico (why Mexico? The question was about Spain) and how he'd invite friendly leaders to the White House. She then asks him again, would that invitation include President Zapatero? He says again that he'd have to review relations first, blah blah. She then says again, "so you'd have to wait to see, so would you meet with him in the White House?" He again repeats his weird statement about friends and enemies. McCain also throws in, oddly, to the Spanish reporter, when she's asking him about meeting the Spanish president, a line about the importance of our relationship with Latin America (this is now the second time he answered a question about meeting the president of Spain with an answer about Latin America). She then says to McCain one last time:

"Okay, but I'm talking about Europe - the president of Spain, would you meet with him?"

This time, there was no room for confusion. McCain then gives this very bizarre answer:

"I will meet with any leader who has the same principles and philosophy as us in terms of human rights, democracy, and freedom and I will stand up to those who do not."

What does concern about human rights, democracy and freedom have to do with a prerequisite for meeting the president of Spain? Especially when you told the same paper 5 months ago that you'd be happy to meet with him.

A strangely evasive answer to a simple question.

I get the impression he'd been advised to stick to a certain line when it came to a certain topic.

Re: John McCain - American dumbass (sorry, couldn't resist)

A great article about McCain's dirty campaigning in Time right now. Here are a couple excerpts:

McCain's lies have ranged from the annoying to the sleazy, and the problem is in both degree and kind. His campaign has been a ceaseless assault on his opponent's character and policies, featuring a consistent—and witting—disdain for the truth.

and:

Worse than the lies have been the smears. McCain ran a television ad claiming that Obama favored "comprehensive" sex education for kindergartners. (Obama favored a bill that would have warned kindergartners about sexual predators and improper touching.) The accusation that Obama was referring to Sarah Palin when he said McCain's effort to remarket his economic policies was putting "lipstick on a pig" was another clearly misleading attack — an obnoxious attempt to divert attention from Palin's lack of fitness for the job and the recklessness with which McCain chose her. McCain's assault on the "élite media" for spreading rumors about Palin's personal life — actually, the culprits were a few bloggers and the tabloid press — was more of the same. And that gets us close to the real problem here. The McCain camp has decided that its candidate can't win honorably, on the issues, so it has resorted to transparent and phony diversions.

and finally:

The good news is that the vile times may be ending. The coming debates will decide this race, and it isn't easy to tell lies when your opponent is standing right next to you. The Wall Street collapse demands a more sober campaign as well. But these dreadful weeks should not be forgotten. John McCain has raised serious questions about whether he has the character to lead the nation. He has defaced his beloved military code of honor. He has run a dirty campaign.

4,000 year old fossils. Or is that a fabrication?

Re: John McCain - American dumbass (sorry, couldn't resist)

I want my daughter to grow up in a world where men and women are equal and gender bias does not exist.

John McCain doesn't seem to care about such things. His choice in VP as an example. John McCain picks an attractive, right wing, wolf shooting, oil loving, greedy nut job who has no business being in a position to run this country. He picks her simply so he can get the "Female Vote". I find this thought process that all women will vote for their ticket simply because a women is on it offensive.:mad:

As far as Sarah Palin..........well........if she is to become one of the most powerful women in the world, I might as well tell my daughter to look for inspiration from Martha Stewart. I feel Palin will try to turn the country into 1954 Suburbia, with her as the Ultimate June Cleaver. Funny though, she wasn't alive then, but her glasses were!:eek:

Re: John McCain - American dumbass (sorry, couldn't resist)

'Thank John McCain' ad, made by some anonymous person. It's actually quite polished and could be a great 527 commercial with the right backing.

The McCains own 13 cars. Not really dumbassery except that he's made past statements that he only buys American while owning a Honda and Volkswagen. Oops.

Obama owns one vehicle: a Ford Escape Hybrid.
