Where is it on Halperin's page? How bout Politico? Drudge? Any news pages?

If Obama had fucked up like that it would be plastered everywhere as proof of his lack of knowledge and understanding of Iraq.

1. Please. You have to be more specific here.

*Which* latest gaffe, exactly?

There have been so many lately, it's hard to keep track.

Maybe we should assign them all tracking numbers to make it easier when following the various subsequent OPs...

2. McCain fucked up in an answer in the CBS interview, and CBS edited it and replaced with other answer
but the transcript on the website revealed the fuck up. KO and Anderson covered it, but I don't know if it will get any more coverage.

3. MSM is protecting McLame with all their might. He can do no wrong while
they are looking with a magnified glass and analyzing Obama's evey move. They even interpret Obama's words to twist his message. Surprised, no.

5. Imagine if Obama had made that gaffe today in the Jordan event
It would have been all OVER the news. Obama fucks up... Obama misstates.... Obama makes bbig mistake....

Nah. Today was game, set and match that the mainstream corporate media are giving McCain a FREE PASS. The other gaffes have been hardly reported. Now this...

We better get some decent Demos on air saying just this when it comes to that stupid question about Obama being loved by the media.

8. Ironically, the media don't call McCain on it because they know he's just a stumbling old fool
No one will say "well, of course, grandpa McCain gets confused and forgets things!"
