John McCain's Whopper on Meet the Press: Bush United Us

Senator John McCain for reasons beyond understanding still gets the red-carpet treatment from the media covering the campaign.

On Meet the Press, after distancing himself from Bush on the salient issues pertaining to Katrina, Iraq and corruption, McCain said this:

"(Bush) led this nation after 9/11 and united us."

Tim Russert let the statement go unchallenged.

Reality check: Were Americans just sitting around waiting for Bush to unite us after 9/11?

Americans were united, the world was united; and Bush took that unity and divided the United States and spread ill will throughout the world to an extent that no American president has ever done in history.

The straight-talking McCain is a joke, and we can expect more political honesty from even the Huckster and Romney than the phony John McCain.
