As it is playing out it seems Johnny McGaffe cannot go more than a few days without sticking his foot in his mouth. This time on the missile tests performed by the Iranian National Guard.
In one of his latest "Greatst Gaffes" the 71 year old Senator from Arizona tooted his own horn by claiming that he had voted to "condemn" the Iranian National Guard as a terrorist organization and then went on to slam Obama for refusing to vote.
"This is the same organization that I voted to condemn as a terrorist organization when an amendment was on the floor of the United States Senate. Senator Obama refused to vote."
Open mouth insert foot...Again! According to voting records Mr. McGaffe also missed the vote on the Kyl-Liebermann Act...Whoops..
The problem with the critique? McCain also missed that vote on the Kyl-Lieberman amendment on September 26, 2007. Records show that Obama was in New Hampshire and McCain was in New York instead of being in the Senate chamber for the vote in question.
The gift that just keeps on giving....
