given mccain’s history, can you 100% REALLY dismiss this?
McCain has said so many idiotic things, it is REASONABLY POSSIBLE. No unreasonable, not beyond reasonable consideration.
It is very reasonable McCain has an idiotic cause for going here.
A story like this is floated for one simple reason, to outrage Conservatives and drive a wedge between him and them. It appears to work, at least here on FR because the anti McCain people are 100% willing to believe anyhting said about him from any source.
There is a pattern emerging of this sort of misinformation (possibly in this case). First the NYT tried it with a “possible” relationship he had with a lobbyist, then Huffington did the same by claiming she and 2 other provable liberals “heard” him say he didn't vote for Bush in 2000 or 2004. Now we have this. If there is a direct quote from McCain in which he claims this incident occurred AND it was the deciding factor in his decision re GW, then I will agree he is indeed suspect in more ways then I had imagined.
