Lightbulb Mc Cain's remarks about bomb, bomb Iran

http://politics.wizbangblog.com/2007...ran-remark.php. I personally am posting this website as a reference to his remarks. However I do not view this website's views as my own. I'm a moderate liberal. But he said this to a an audience who just laughed about it. I thought his comments were tasteless and out of line. Of course I don't see why people would think dropping bombs on a country would be so funny.People dying I guess is hilarious to them.

Default With you

LadyinRed,

I'm with you. I thought his comments were tasteless. I've seen other people hauled in front of Al Sharpton for less. And political figures shouldn't have carte blanche to make jokes about bombing anyone.

Reagan made a famous on camera announcement in the eighties, similar to McCain, but he was doing a mike check and didn't know it was on. I think it was "...we're bombing Russia in five minutes.." or something like that.

Still, Democratic candidates are being held to the fire for any tasteless remark. Candidates have fallen for the same kinds of remarks before.

I still want to take down Ann Coulter.... she has a billion of them notched on her speechpost.
