John McCain Lacks Sex Education 101?

John McCain, during a live interview, stumbled on a very basic question. This wasn’t a question concerning the Iraq War. Iran? Nope, not that. Let’s see…should Gonzalez be fired? Nope, he didn’t stumble on that one. Do condoms stop the spread of HIV? Yup, he couldn’t answer that question!

From AmericaBlog and a NY Times blog, McCain stumbled on a very basic tenet of health care. He was unable to reply to the question of condoms.

Q: “So no contraception, no counseling on contraception. Just abstinence. Do you think contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV?”

Mr. McCain: (Long pause) “You’ve stumped me.”

How the hell do you get stumped on that question? Any sensible theocrat can tell you, “Yes.” Any idiot can tell you, “Yes.” But let’s see McCain’s response during this interview that’s more hilarious.

I’m not informed enough on it. Let me find out. You know, I’m sure I’ve taken a position on it on the past. I have to find out what my position was. Brian, would you find out what my position is on contraception – I’m sure I’m opposed to government spending on it, I’m sure I support the president’s policies on it.”

He doesn’t know his own damn position on contraception! That’s bad, especially since the President, and the government, has been dealing with this issue for a long time. How is it that he hasn’t formed an opinion yet?

And he’s not “informed enough” on contraceptives? I don’t want to get started on that…

America, do not vote for this idiot. He has become a hypocrite; he’s not even certain that condoms stop the spread of HIV. How dumb is that?

Maybe John should’ve just replied, “I’m a DEE DEE DEE!”

But instead he told a reporter how much a pig weighed at a state fair.
