McCAIN'S SPAIN GAFFE: TOO PROUD TO SAY HE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND THE INTERVIEWER
Sorry, but as an American citizen with close ties to Spain (my grandparent's land), I find McCain's lack of knowledge regarding the relationship between the Spanish and American governments an issue of great concern. Yes, I have heard the interview with that radio person who happened to have a very thick accent. However, she TRIED to clarify several times the fact that she was talking about Spain... And I'm sorry but I do find it very insulting for a presidential candidate to bunch together Mr. Zapatero and Spain with South America. C'mon people... Spain has been a member of the EU for quite some time, and on top of that, it is a NATO ally who also sent troops to Irak in support of the US. Sorry, but as much as I would had like to vote for McCain, his ignorance about Spain just led me to realize that my vote should NOT go to him... Sadly enough I don't agree with many of Obama's "ideas", but I just can't get past this gross error from McCain's part.
