Apparently John McCain is a Latino
McCain's latest triviality aimed against Obama is a poorly conceived, but appropriately simplistic attack that claims that Obama left out the Latin countries when he made his speech in Germany. The speech is punctuated with a driving rhythm and cut-away titles in Spanish only.
The one that really got me was the last title, which roughly translated asked "Did he forget about us?" US? John McCain is a latino? WTF?
If they had asked "Did he forget about you?" it would have made a certain sense, but us?
If I were hispanic, I'd be pretty offended by this pasty old white dude married to an even pastier blonde heiress, McCain's self-inclusion in my racial identity.
Another example of the lame, amateurish crap that the McCain camp keeps turning out. I hope the hispanic community notices its presumptuousness. Yes, McCain is being presumtuous. Go figure.
