John McCain’s senior moments are starting to outnumber his good ones.
For the second time in two days, John McCain has referred to current events in “Czechoslovakia†– a country that officially ceased to exist in January of 1993.
“And I regret some of the recent behavior Russia that has exhibited, and I’ll be glad to talk about that later on including reduction in oil supplies to Czechoslovakia after they agreed with us on a missile defense system, etcetera,†said the presumptive Republican nominee at a New Mexico town hall Tuesday…
On Monday, the Arizona senator made virtually the same statement about recent Russian moves that troubled him, citing that country’s attempt to reduce “the energy supplies to Czechoslovakia.â€
The children who were born in Florida the year the nation split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia are learning to drive. Barack Obama was 31 at the time. But to McCain, it must seem like only yesterday. At least he hasn’t referred to Zimbabwe as Rhodesia. Yet.
