I just saw the interview, and that was just freaking bizarre. It makes you wonder about the 3 guys ranked lower than him at the Naval Academy.

Recent McCain comments have brought to mind 04 and accusations of waffling and flipflopping made against a certain candidate. Now I'm not in favor of using those terms in this case just a bit peeved that the label stuck then.

Ok, enough is enough. I just heard McCain bragging about being on an oil rig in the gulf and seeing fish, and talking about how much the fish loved the oil rigs.

Whew....

SCRIPT: English translation of "Dos Caras," or "Two Faces": Obama: "I'm Barack Obama and I approved this message." Announcer: "They want us to forget the insults we've put up with, the intolerance. They made us feel marginalized in a country we love so much. John McCain and his Republican friends have two faces. One tells lies just to get our vote, and the other, even worse, continues the failed policies of George Bush, putting the interests of powerful groups above working families. John McCain, more of the same Republican deceptions."

English translation of "Which Side Are They On?": Announcer: "Obama and his allies in Congress say they're on the side of immigrants. But are they? News reports say their efforts were like 'poison pills' that caused immigration reform to fail. The result: No to the guest worker program, to the road to citizenship, to secure borders. No reforms passed. Is that being on our side? Obama and his allies in Congress: Ready to block immigration reform but not ready to govern." McCain (speaking in English): "I'm John McCain and I approved this message."

KEY IMAGES: The "Two Faces" ad aired by the Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee shows photos of immigrants as a picture of Limbaugh appears at the bottom of the screen. Limbaugh is quoted in text as saying, "Mexicans stupid and unqualified" and "Shut your mouth or get out!" As the announcer speaks of Republicans with two faces, a Spanish newspaper headline appears: "They caused the failure of immigration reform." Photos of McCain with President Bush appear.

"Which Side Are They On," paid for by McCain's campaign and the Republican National Committee, curiously uses one of the same images that the Obama ad does — the Spanish newspaper headline that states: "They caused the failure of immigration reform." It also shows scowling pictures of Obama and other Senate Democrats, then cuts to photos of smiling Hispanic families. It shows a gavel being pounded down.
