    McCain said a bad word. Listen to him say "Horse excrement" using a much coarser term...

    Somebody really is putting something in his Metamucil!

    What a grumpy & old, short-tempered man.

    We discipline sports figures when they spew something like this on national TV. This guy is running for president!

    You are right. Obama told the truth. Truth was ugly for McCain.

    But that is no way someone running for presidency should behave.

    Disgraceful.

    I chuckled to McCain's comeback about the seal right after his horse**** remark.

    Got a source to debunk the pretty lie?

    What lie? That he said horse poo?

    That's not a lie! Unless you listen closer. ;)

    Wow. Did he forget that there was a microphone a foot from his mouth, reaching every television set in this country?

    Actually, he probably did.

    Definitely poor discipline on McCain's part. I honestly didn't believe a veteran politician is capable of it, considering all the practice and training they go through to make sure they DON'T do something like this.

    It's getting late at night and I needed a good laugh. Thanks.

    ...or were you being serious?

    Best. Post. In. D&D. Ever. :D



    BTW-

    "Me gustaría que [el presidente Zapatero] visitara Estados Unidos. Yo estoy muy interesado, no sólo en normalizar las relaciones con España, sino en conseguir unas relaciones buenas y productivas con objeto de atender muchos asuntos y desafíos a los que tenemos que hacer frente juntos", afirma.
    http://www.elpais.com/articulo/inte...ar/adelante/elpepuint/20080406elpepiint_2/Tes

    translation?

    "I would like President Zapatero to visit the United States. I am very interested, not only in normalizing relations with Spain, but in developing good and productive relations that address the many issues and challenges that we need to be addressing together," he said.




    We're arguing semantics... typical lumping of countries in a question, then picking out the one you want freak out over when the answer is to the broader question.

    BTW- This is exactly what he really said. Go back and re-listen... open minds can hear both, but he really only said, "of course."


    "of course... of course" in a response under his breathe to the idea of whether or not he'd have Zapatero visit.


    And his follow up response was brilliant.

    even tho he said it, the tape delay let him get away with it, no? Im sure that more people didn't catch it while watching. Now if the media makes it a big issue, then maybe there will be some acknowledgement.

    If im not mistake, didn't Bush cuss someone out on the Campaign trail in 2004 while his mike was on? Im being honest...

    Not only are you blinded by your views...but it seems you are also deafened by them.

    Obama: "are they (Spain) even aligned with us"

    McCain: "of course"

    Obama: "NATO ally"

    McCain: "of course"



    Go listen again. Trust me... I want to hear it the other way too... it would be funnier. ;)

    Even if he said it, this is still a non-issue. It is known that the dude has a temper. There are better legit issues to roast McCain.

    Come on, lighten up. Check this out if you haven't seem it already

    That's exactly what he said. I remember seeing that moment live and it wasn't vulgar at all. It's funny with crappy YouTube audio though.

    I remember Bush in 2000 being on a podium with a live mike calling some New York Times reporter a "major league a-hole," to which Cheney replied "big time;" which my older brother and I spent the whole day repeating.
