McCain turns to Palin for foreign policy advice

If I had any doubts about McCain showing early signs of demetia, he just erased them with this remark.
NPR: Given what you've said Senator, is there an occasion where you could imagine turning to Governor Palin for advice in a foreign policy crisis.

MCCAIN: I've turned to her advice many times in the past, I can't imagine turning to Senator Obama or Senator Biden cuz they've been wrong, they were wrong about Iraq, wrong about Russia...

NPR: But would you turn to Governor Palin?

MCCAIN: I certainly wouldn't turn to them, and I've already turned to Governor Palin particularly on energy issues and I've appreciated her background and knowledge on that and many other issues.

NPR: Does her energy qualification extend to the international energy market?

MCCAIN: Of course. Of course. That's what it's all about. It extends to a broad variety of issues from her worldview to threats that we face, to radical Islamic extremism, to specific areas of the world. I'm very proud of her, and proud of the knowledge and background that she has.
He also told some interviewer earlier, I'm losing track of who he mades which clueless assertion to, that he's unaware of any negative feedback coming from the right wingers on her qualifications. That was true a month ago, but you have to be deaf, dumb and blind to have missed the parade of complaints in the last week about his running mate. Classic signs of either early Alzheimers or a pathological liar.

I saw a great slogan the other day in somebody's comment section: McCain/Palin -- Unstable/Unable. It becomes more apt by the minute. [via]
