Here is an example of how utterly STUPID John McCain is.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told senators it is a national security concern that people from countries with ties to terrorism could ‘potentially’ gain entry into the United States by crossing the country’s southern border.

But according to the Department of Homeland Security’s own reports, thousands of people from 14 “special interest” countries already have come into the United States illegally, including some across the U.S.-Mexico border. (The State Department designates some nations as “special interest” counties because of their links to terrorism.)

******McCain responded: “Countries of special interest – people could come up through our southern border?” [DUH!!!]

“Potentially, yes,” Napolitano said.

AZ-Sen. 2010: McCain fights for Arizona Senate seat (McCain only fights conservatives)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2473494/posts

by Edward Luce

Earlier this week, Mr Hayworth, a former talk radio conservative, made the latest in a series of gaffes when he said that allowing gay marriage would enable people to marry their horses. (snip)

[What gaffe, Ed?]

“I mean, Caligula [the debauched Roman emperor] only made his horse a consul – nobody talked about marrying his horse,” says Mr McCain in an interview with the Financial Times. “You can’t make this stuff up.” And yet, Mr McCain is also proof of the dictum that you either run scared or you run unopposed.

In spite of having a 20-point lead in the polls, Mr McCain is taking Mr Hayworth’s challenge very seriously. (snip)

[When was that poll taken?]

They point to Mr McCain’s reluctance to champion immigration reform, an issue that he once pushed hard, and on which he strenuously denies he has diluted his position. They also point to his retreat from support for legislation to bring in a cap and trade regime for carbon emissions. Again, Mr McCain says that he has not changed his views and is awaiting a genuine conversion by Mr Obama in favour of nuclear power – a requisite, he says, for the “all of the above” approach to energy.
