McCain On Obama-Castro Handshake: 'Chamberlain Shook Hands With Hitler'

....

When asked if Obama should have extended his hand, McCain was quick to respond.

"Of course not," the senator said. "Why should you shake hands with somebody who's keeping Americans in prison? I mean, what's the point?"

Then, after a slight pause, McCain went there.

"Neville Chamberlain shook hands with Hitler," he added.

Totally the same


Does this mean Obama is going to give up Little Havana? Or Hispaniola?

McCain and his neocon war industry-owned ilk are so frightened of diplomacy that it makes them say the darndest things.

If there are no more Iraqs and Afghanistans to profit off of, their pockets will get a lot lighter.
