Some reporters dismissed McCain's new Iran "joke," suggesting that it is perhaps just part of his "regular guy" persona, an endearing quality for a man running for an office that commands the world's strongest and most advanced military.

      Before voting for someone who is a "regular guy," ask yourself if you would want the guy from the pub, who sometimes gets a little too drunk and starts a fight for no reason, making rules that you would have to live by.

      Would you really want to give your drinking buddy, who's no smarter and whose moral and ethical standards are no greater than your own, to have the power to make laws that you would have to live by?

        Just look how America voted in 2004 and 2000. That should answer your question.

        Okay America, let's see how really smart you are. We've seen this jerk say stupid things and do stupid things and he is running for the highest public office in the land. Do you want this a$$hole to represent us on the world stage? Heaters are a good way to kill Iranians?! Yeah I can see the diplomacy flowing through him. But you people won't surprise me at all. We'll wake up on the day after the election and his old, dumb, low class ass will be our president and we'll have 4 more years of misery and warfare
