McSame had a radio interview today when he was asked about the leader of Spain. Here is the transcript:Q: Senator, finally, let's talk about Spain. If you are elected president, would you be willing to invite President Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero to the White House to meet with you?
McCain: I would be willing to meet with those leaders who are friends and want to work with us in a cooperative fashion. And by the way, President Calderon of Mexico is fighting a very, very tough fight against the drug cartels. I am glad we are now working in cooperation with the Mexican government on the Merida plan. And I intend to move forward with relations and invite as many of them as I can, of those leaders to the White House.
Q: Would that invitation be extended to the Zapatero government, to the president himself?
McCain: I don't, I, you know, honestly, I have to look at relations, and the situations, and the priorities but I can assure you I will establish closer relations with our friends, and I will stand up to those who want to do harm to the United States of America. I know how to do both.
Q: So you have to wait and see if he is willing to meet with you, will you be able to do it in the White House?
McCain: Well, again, I don't. All I can tell you is that I have a clear record of working with leaders in the hemisphere that are friends with us and standing up to those who are not. And that's judged on the basis of the importance of our relationship with Latin America and the entire region.
Q: Okay, what about you? I'm talking about the President of Spain.
McCain: What about me what?
Q: Okay, are you willing to meet with him if you are elected president?
McCain: I am willing to meet with any leader who is dedicated to the same principles and philosophy that we are for human rights, democracy, and freedom. And I will stand up to those that do not.
Soooo, um....is Spain in Latin America? Is Spain in our hemisphere? What does Mexico have to do with Spain?
And this is the candidate who is running on his foreign policy credentials?
ALSO...
Todd Palin, the "First Dude" has said he will not answer the subpoena to be questioned by the investigators of Troopergate. Can anyone explain to me why he thinks he gets to break the law by ignoring the subpoena. What makes him, and all those other subpeonaed, so special that they don't have to respond to subpoenas?
Who does this sound like? A) The Clintons, Bill & the First Lady Hillary and their staff who answered the subpoenas put before them, or B) the Bushies, Karl Rove, Harriet Myers, Scooter Libby, etc, etc, etc, who ignored subpoenas when they were issued?
You'd think the Palins would wait until they're IN the White House before they start acting like the current occupants. But then again, maybe they realize they won't get there and this might be their only chance to be bushie-esque.

That's not good!
Even I knew that Spain is in Europe and I have serious learning disorders and no long term memory.
So what is his problem? Maybe he's a little too old? Or he needs to lay off the crack pipe. ;)
Or those prescription meds have finally caught up with him.
Why should he be any different than Bush? He just does not have the correct handlers to protect him from all those silly questions.
