And Obama has lied about Selma, to the entire world. His integrity is in question.

Liberal trap? Let mee 'splain.

If he had gone on Letterman and shot the breeze with Dave, laughing it up and telling jokes and all, the Libs would be saying, "How could he be laughing at a time like this?"
Damned if you do/don't

Comedy is a form of entertainment which should not even be in the same league as news, but yet it is.
Comedy is not to be taken too seriously so who cares if he lied to a comedian?
Get your priorities straight.

I still fail to see how it is a 'Liberal Trap'. John McCain put himself into that position. No Liberal trapped him between a rock and a hard place, he did it himself. He lied to Letterman. He made the big deal about suspending his campaign. No one said that he had to go on Letterman and tell jokes. Jerry Seinfeld didn't tell any jokes on Letterman when he was on there after Kramer used the N-Word...

He could have told Letterman the truth, instead of lying, telling him he was rushing back to Washington and instead give an interview in the same city, to the same network Letterman is on...

There is no Liberal trap here. McCain mishandled just about every step in regard to the crisis. First claiming that the 'fundamentals of the economy are strong' to then claiming that the fundamentals of the economy are 'the American people, and their hard work'.
Come on, anyone who knows one sliver of knowledge about the economy, knows that economists are not referring to the 'hard work and innovation of the American people', they are talking about stock values, business performance projections, evaluations of credit risks... McCain didn't know what he was talking about, and he still doesn't.

The only trap here is the one McCain set for himself...

Oy vey, old news now, I used "trap" for lack of a better word but from the standpoint that regardless of how McCain would have or should have reacted, the libs would have slammed him for something else.

Brian Williams?
Isn't that the guy from NBC?
Why is a guy from NBC ripping McCain?
Oh, I forgot, the MSM is in the tank for Obama.

I had no idea Dave was such a whiner.

I thought i would just follow this thread up. John McCain just went on the Letterman show and of course is confronted by Letterman over the events of the previous non-meeting.



In watching this i first thought that McCain was handling it well... watching the whole way through i feel going on Letterman was a mistake. I thought Letterman ate him alive.

I love the Obama attack from McCain "You gota take a man on his word", then you almost see the realisation of; 'uh oh i left myself open on this one' regarding his previous lies to Letterman. Lucky Letterman didn't pick that up.
