Title: Giant Gaffe: McCain Confuses National Guard and Army -- and Palin's Son
Post by: 240 is Back on September 21, 2008, 09:33:18 PM
McCain:
"I also know, if I might remind you, that she is commander of the Alaska National Guard. In fact, you may know that on Sept. 11 a large contingent of the Alaska Guard deployed to Iraq and her son happened to be one of them. So I think she understands our national security challenges..."


The ceremony Palin attended at Fort Wainwright last week didn't involve the Alaska National Guard. Palin's son is in the Army, and his unit - 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division - deployed to Iraq.

How long did Obama or his relatives serve in the military?

Let's not got away from what is truly important and that is the service of Palin's son, as you so correctly mentioned.

True GOP backer, ignore the fuck ups by McCain and try to change the subject....

So her son was a coke head and a oxy head and his parents FORCED him to Join the military... and? Want a cookie?  He wants to be there as much as I do... ZERO

The funny part is that with the hillbilly lifestyle of Bristol and Track... you just KNOW the Bush twins are having a laugh riot over this.  People can't talk shit about the twins anymore with these losers coming up.

If Obama had mistaken the National Guard for the Army, would you care at all?

240...its not an issue. Nobody cares, and nobody is running with it. It doesn't say National Guard on their uniform either, most units have deployed overseas and or been Federalized. Forget it.

Okay.  So you're saying that if/when Obama mixes up two of the Armed Forces, it won't matter?

They aren't different  240..I can't make it any clearer. It doesn't say National Guard under their left breast, it says US ARMY. The Marines and the Army are different services. This is ridiculous, this isn't a gaffe.
