My, my how the media is lazy.
From our good friend Gateway Pundit we find that a Democratic operative asked John McCain at a townhall meeting if he'd ever called his wife a c**t.
How did the media describe the guy? A Baptist minister.
Who is the guy?
Marty Parrish, Joe Biden's former office manager. He's also an Obama supporter.
Naturally though, the Des Moines Register was too dumb to realize who the guy actually was.
Parrish, a 45-year-old Baptist minister and technology business owner, said he attended the event specifically to confront McCain about the rumor.
McCain, however, handled the incident like a pro.
Here’s a transcript of today’s remarks:
PARRISH: This question goes to mental health and mental health care. Previously, I’ve been married to a woman that was verbally abusive to me. Is it true that you called your wife a (expletive)?
MCCAIN: Now, now. You don’t want to … Um, you know that’s the great thing about town hall meetings, sir, but we really don’t, there’s people here who don’t respect that kind of language. So I’ll move on to the next questioner in the back.
The audience gasped at the question and applauded at McCain’s handling of it.
Remember, the left will stop at nothing this year. Nothing.
