The question I'm waiting for the media to ask about McCain
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 01:28 PM by cameozalaznick
What exactly is his (McCain's) "executive experience." Just one person getting the rw talking points about Palin's vastly superior experience over Obama and Biden. One anchor or pundit or reporter needs to ask this question.

ONE FRIGGIN' PERSON. PLEASE!!!!!

1. Was it Rudianne who said McSame managed soldiers/sailors? in the military
and that was execky-tive (using Laura Bush's pronunciation) experience? (Sorry, can't remember what branch of the service McCain was in.)

2. McCain was from what I have read
The commanding officer (CO) in Jax (Jacksonville). I don't recall what squadron or if it was the base itself. That is executive experience. Before that he would have been the Executive Officer (XO)or the second in command learning the ropes to be CO. Before that he would have had to be in charge of departments and before that in charge of a division. That is the way it progresses today for sure. I'm not so sure about how it went in the 70's but I can't imagine that it has changed that much.

Raebrek!!!
