McCain II: Failing To Czech His Facts

The John McCain discombobulations just keep coming.

Hard off of repeatedly referring to the Czech Republic as Czechoslovakia, a country that has not existed since 1993, as well as repeatedly confusing those Shiites and Sunnis, who of course dress alike, he has now expressed concern about violent happenings on the Iraq-Pakistan border.
The problem, of course, is that Iran inconveniently sits in between those two nations. And that events on the ground in Afghanistan, where Barack Obama has a plan but McCain has only a whine, are putting the lie to his contention that he's the candidate with the foreign policy cred.
