McCain the Mindreader - Extended Version

[QueensLadyDay]

This country will get what it deserves!! The man's wife is FILTHY RICH!! The rich take care care of their own!  Goodbye-middle class! Goodbye- American made goods! Vote McCain, Get more of the same!! Vote McCain, Get more of the same!! Vote McCain, Get more of the same!!

More financial pain, more war, more racial hatred! God Bless the USA! Please......WAKE UP!

80 percent of Americans in a recent pole said they believe in merit pay isn't a question. The second two things you said are the exact same thing. They ask they exact same question.

[trny3]

These are the three questions asked of Obama:

1. 80 percent of Americans recent pole said

they believe in merit pay for teachers.

2. Do you think better teachers should be paid better?

3. They should be making more than poor teachers?

The problem is that McCain responds before he hears the last two questions with "Yes. Yes. And find the bad teachers another line of work." Clearly answering three questions.

Yeah it's not going to win a court case but the guy has a point!

[Darkside007]

The third response is the flip side of the "merit pay" question. "What about the bad ones?" is implied.

[professionalwhatsit]

Whoever made this video is a dumbass. They're blind. He clearly references merit based pay before McCain answers. I knew what was gooing to be asked and I'm 17. So please stop whining and get a real case against McCain.

[blondieb23]

Warren - ALL RIGHT. LET'S TALK ABOUT EDUCATION. AMERICA 18 RANKS 19TH IN HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATIONS, BUT WE'RE FIRST IN 19 INCARCERATION. EVERYBODY SAYS THEY WANT MORE ACCOUNTABILITY IN SCHOOLS

McCain - UH-HUH.

Warren - ABOUT 80 PERCENT OF AMERICA SAYS THEY SUPPORT MERIT PAY FOR THE BEST TEACHERS. NOW, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR STUMP SPEECH ON EDUCATION..

McCain - YES. YES. AND FIND BAD TEACHERS ANOTHER LINE OF WORK.

Exactly, what question(s) was he answering?

[MMS747]

McKarnak the Magnificent.

[MMS747]

The Amazing McKreskin.

[sonyarina]

He is so senile that he didn't even realize that you have to wait for the question to be asked. But of course, why not? He got away with it. The audience cheered... And the media is carrying his water. Why not cheat and be obvious about it?

[Unhindered]

sonyarina: "He is so senile that..."

Really? Obama is really awful then, that a senile old man could totally wipe the floor with him int his discussion!

[geber22]

How about finding bad cheating politicians another line of work.

[armadilloze]

Simple explanation: he forgot to wait until the questions were asked before giving the answers he was given. Use the Google on "Occam's Razor."

Notice how he usually bumbles but was sharp this time. What's different? In all the gaffes, he couldn't have known the questions in advance.

[sangria82]

That still doesn't explain why at one point McCain asks, "Can we get back to the question about the Supreme Court Justices?" before the moderator even brought that subject up.

[armadilloze]

sangria82: "That still doesn't explain why at one point McCain asks, "Can we get back to the question about the Supreme Court Justices?" before the moderator even brought that subject up."

Same explanation, I think we agree: he started answering before he heard the question. Got his script mixed up. Also, an aide was asked about other means of communication (limo cellphones etc.) and refused to answer, saying he couldn't speak to that or somesuch. So no direct denial. Hmmm...

[Unhindered]

That still doesn't explain why at one point McCain asks, "Can we get back to the question about the Supreme Court Justices?"

No, McCain was talking about abortion, and he asked if they were going to talk about the Supreme Court later or if he should talk about it then, because they're related issues.

Stop lying, it's not flattering.

[Unhindered]

No, Obama is the one who usually bumbles unless he's reading word for work off a teleprompter. Occam's Razor - the simplest answer is the best?

The simplest answer is that he just answered the questions that had just been asked. Thanks for proving yourself wrong.

[armadilloze]

Unhindered: " Thanks for proving yourself wrong."

Are you talking to McSame right after he couldn't find Iraq and Pakistan on a map? The one who doesn't know Shiite from Shinola? The one who did not know how many troops we had in Iraq, yet wants to be Commander Guy II? Sheesh!

We can't afford one MONTH more of that kind of demented Bushie bumbling, much less four more years. Imagine your country's embarrassment when he speaks to a gathering of world leaders. Sad. Very sad.

[GrownupPhan]

Good video, but you only showed one of the 3 questions McCain answered that hadn't been asked. Need to include them all to really show how blatant this gaffe was in giving away the prior knowledge.

[AJvidacct]

If he didn't know the questions upfront then what are the two "yes" statements for?

[mawalls2001]

1) Accountability in schools

2) Merit pay for good teachers

[intelliot]

Excellent explanation! If you think about it, his response does make sense... still, I think he should be honest and confirm whether he knew the questions or not.

[kaikosuke]

You would have to be stupid not to anticipate what the question could be about.

"... says they support merit based pay..."

What else could the next question possibly be?  McCain heard merit-based pay for teachers and asserted his support.

The one thing I hate more than avid McCain supporters are unintelligent Obama supporters.

[pollyana39]

Oh how lame. Yes Obama fever is losing steam with those who see through him and they will continue to get more desperate.

[keatonkeaton999]

this is retarded. this doesn't prove anything at all.

[slavophile1]

The obamaphiles are getting desperate...

[lloyd76oswald]

mccain isnt a liar hes just a mind reader obviously.
