Will says that when John McCain confused Shiites and Sunnis it wasn't a big deal because "it's a given that he knows what he's talking about."

Except...McCain had no idea what he was talking about.

I know, IOKIYAOR.

2. Gee, I thought George Will was gonna say "Er, I swiped his briefing book."

"And THAT's why he got confused!! I stole his NOTES!!!!!"


Context, for the children (be advised I believe Carter; this is Will's effort to paint Carter as a liar--but pretty much EVERYONE believes Carter over Will on this issue) : http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/10/AR2005081001796.html

"We found out later that one of Ronald Reagan's supporters inside the White House had stolen my briefing book, my top-secret briefing book that prepared me for the debate. And a very prominent news reporter was the one who took the briefing book to Ronald Reagan and helped drill him on the things that I might say if he said certain things." Asked who that reporter was, Carter replied, "It was George Will, and it was later known that he did that."

6. I find it more annoying and upsetting that he said "not at TALL" than the lame excuse

Hey George was it a GIVEN that there were WMD and ties to alQaeda?

Why is this guy on the air?

7. "because people say it's a given this man knows what he's taking about"

George Will knows "this man"(John McCain) doesn't know jack. He hates John McCain. He just hates democrats more.

I wish these people were as careful with the our money and our children's lives as they are with their words.
