On Monday morning, as the nation was waking up to the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the buyout of Merrill Lynch, John McCain continued his steady migration into obliviousness, declaring that "the fundamentals of our economy are strong."

By the afternoon, McCain has realized his goof, and needs a way out. His response? Oh, he meant workers. So Obama is attacking American workers!


I think at this point we're all pretty tired of this supposed maverick hiding behind everyone else's skirts. Can't criticize him, or you're criticizing POWs. Can't criticize Palin, or you're sexist. Can't criticize the war, because that makes the soldiers feel sad. Can't criticize the crappy economy, because that's attacking workers.

That's the McCain way -- and yet another thing he seems to have learned from the masters, the Bush administration, which piped up with similar crap to justify every one of their policy actions of the last eight years.

So according to McCain, everything's fine, and if you think otherwise you're attacking Americans. What a charmer -- you can really see why the press fell for him, those many months ago.
