McCain thinks that Iraq and Pakistan share a border, and that the "Anbar Awakening" of 2007 occurred after the Surge (and that the Surge was responsible for it...).

And we're supposed to think he'd be the best Commander-in-Chief? Really?

If it were an isolated "slip of the tongue", your argument would have merit. But this is the same man who consistently refers to "Czechoslovakia" (which hasn't existed for years) and who has made other "slips of the tongue". I don't think this shows he's stupid or senile. I think it shows that he, like George W. Bush, is willfully ignorant, and arrogant enough to figure he doesn't have to learn stuff because nobody will call him on his ignorance.

"Willfully ignorant."

That's it. That's exactly it.
