I guess John McCain and Sarah Palin went to the same "School of Gaffes" and no doubt they both graduated with honors when it comes to their FIM Degree (Foot-in-Mouth Degree.)

9. I have a clue how about you.

I made a joke, you took a poke
at me for saying that mccain is stupid.

Was it so bad that it made you so mad
to resort to an insult like you did.

5. Was the "nothing succeeds like success" line supposed to be a gaffe?

It's an actual saying, going back to the 1800s:

I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a gaffe or just an ironic commentary on his lack of success.

7. now he is quoting the French! ! !

QUOTATION: Nothing succeeds like success.
ATTRIBUTION: (Rien ne réussit comme le succès.—Dumas: Ange Pitou, vol. i. p 72, 1854.) A French proverb.

8. What a pity

that the people who really ought to see this likely never will. I think it's the kind of simple direct message that just might get through to a few of them.

10. Jesus take the wheel.

[lumpy]

11. McCain is such a simple-minded jackass.

And we thought George W. was stupid.
