They've already back-peddled and are claiming no responsibility, but I thought this was kind of funny (reminds me of when Al Gore invented the Internet)...

No, I did not need to use The Google... I just got on the Internets and went to 9news.com and there it was.

So what? He made a social mistake... it wasn't like he intended to be a dick.

If this is the kind of material that the Obama/Biden camp has to rely on to attack McCain/Palin, I don't think there's any doubt that McCain will be our next President.







:D

Idiot! OMG, who would say something like that!? :D

Seriously though, this doesn't compare to the Biden thing, and McCain says he never even made that claim himself... it's just funny to see his campaign pulling a wannabe-Gore move.

Barack and the Dems aren't saying this,this was the media reporting this.

In a statement, Democratic candidate Barack Obama's campaign spokesman Bill Burton said: "If John McCain hadn't said that 'the fundamentals of our economy are strong' on the day of one of our nation's worst financial crises, the claim that he invented the BlackBerry would have been the most preposterous thing said all week."

:D:D
