John McCain needs a new new publicist.... Anyone? (crickets)


Q: “So no contraception, no counseling on contraception. Just abstinence. Do you think contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV?”
Mr. McCain: (Long pause) “You’ve stumped me.”

Q: “I mean, I think you’d probably agree it probably does help stop it?”

Mr. McCain: (Laughs) “Are we on the Straight Talk express? I’m not informed enough on it. Let me find out. You know, I’m sure I’ve taken a position on it on the past. I have to find out what my position was. Brian, would you find out what my position is on contraception – I’m sure I’m opposed to government spending on it, I’m sure I support the president’s policies on it.”

Q: “But you would agree that condoms do stop the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Would you say: ‘No, we’re not going to distribute them,’ knowing that?”

Mr. McCain: (Twelve-second pause) “Get me Coburn’s thing, ask Weaver to get me Coburn’s paper that he just gave me in the last couple of days. I’ve never gotten into these issues before.”

As of early 2006, AIDS has killed over 25 million people worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.
John McCain doesn not know if condoms help prevent the spread of HIV or AIDS. Try asking any 10 year old Mr McCain.

Ya know... Way back when I dated a girl who didn't know what a moth was. I had to explain to her it was an "UGLY BUTTERFLY." John McCain reminds me of that girl.

He knows- he's just afraid to say anything that might sound pro-birth control for fear of offending his voting base.

The higher up in government you get, the more douche-like you become.
