McCain Doesn't Need a Fact-Checker; the Media Edit His Mistakes for Him
By Brent Budowsky, Consortium News
The media cover up McCain's latest egregious misstatements on Iraq. Read more »

John McClueless does not understand economics:
"The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," McCain told the Boston Globe He told Stephen Moore of the Wall Street Journal  "I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated." 
 Here's the gist of it: Despite his earlier opposition, he now wants to make the Bush tax cuts permanent. Price tag: more than $2 trillion over 10 years. He wants to repeal the alternative minimum tax. Price tag: "up to $2 trillion" according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP). He wants to keep the war going ad infinitum, at a cost of between $100 billion and $150 billion per year, according to CBO estimates. Bob Greenstein, the director of the CBPP, is not prone to hyperbole. But he called McCain's program "one of the most fiscally irresponsible plans we've seen by a presidential candidate in a long time."

In an interview on NBC’s Today Show, host Matt Lauer asked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) about his support for the war in Iraq.

Q: If it’s working, senator, do you now have a better estimate of when American forces can come home from Iraq?

McCAIN: No, but that’s not too important

April 20, 2007 · Republican presidential contender Sen. John McCain (AZ) joked about bombing Iran this week during a campaign appearance in Murrells Inlet, S.C.  McCain was asked by an audience member about possible U.S. military action in Iran.   "How many times do we have to prove that these people are blowing up people now, never mind if they get a nuclear weapon. When do we send them an airmail message to Tehran?" a man in the crowd asked.  In response, McCain said, "That old, eh, that old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran" — ... McCain then chuckled before briefly singing — to the tune of the chorus of the Beach Boys' classic "Barbara Ann" — "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, anyway, ah ...
refers to his wife as a cunt
John McCain's temper is well documented. He's called opponents and colleagues "shitheads," "assholes" and in at least one case "a fucking jerk."   At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain's hair and said, "You're getting a little thin up there." McCain's face reddened, and he responded, "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt."    Sen. Bob Smith, R-N.H. opined that McCain's rage quotient "would place this country at risk in international affairs, and the world perhaps in danger."
