CJ, why waste time repeating the same nonsense I can find on HuffPo? From FactCheck.org: > The ad claims that McCain "proposed abolishing the Department of Education." Not exactly. He didn't formally propose such a move as much as it was an offhand suggestion, and that department wasn't the only one he mentioned. ... > We couldn't find any other record of McCain mentioning this idea, and the quote is the only support the Obama campaign provided for its claim. Saying McCain "proposed" abolishing the department, as if it were a legislative initiative, is misleading. Yet intelligent guys like you and SilentZ believe that this one quote from McCain, taken out of context 14 years ago, is sufficient proof that McCain wants to abolish the Depts. of Energy and Education. Unbelievable. Tenchusatsu
