McCain vs Geography (Round Two, or Eight)

I wrote this as an update to a story from a week ago, but I don't want this to get overlooked, so I'll note it here. For the THIRD time in a week, despite all of the ridicule, John McCain referred to the non-existent country of Czechoslovakia. It is unbelievable how incompetent this guy is, yet you wouldn't know it by watching the news or pundits. Anyway, read all about McCain's war on geography.

Update: On Good Morning America this morning he managed to screw up geography again! This time he referenced the non-existent Iraq-Pakistan border. Yes, those who know even a little bit about the Middle East might be aware that Iraq doesn't even come close to sharing a border with Pakistan, indeed the entirety of Iran is between them. What an idiot. And this guy is supposed to be Mr. Foreign Policy? C'mon media, enough with the crap, can we give up the charade now?
