And I [McCain] regret some of the recent behavior Russia that has exhibited, and I'll be glad to talk about that later on including reduction in oil supplies to Czechoslovakia after they agreed with us on a missile defense system, etcetera," said the presumptive Republican nominee at a New Mexico town hall Tuesday.
Czechoslovakia?
I think he mis-spoke so,
"And I regret some of the recent behavior Russia Land of the Golden Horde that has exhibited, and I'll be glad to talk about that later on including reduction in oil fur supplies to Czechoslovakia Austro-Hungarian Empire after they agreed with us on a missile defense system Star Fort© moat and wall defense for Prague ...,"
There. Fixed.
However, I've seen worse. Worse than calling the Czech Republic "Czechoslovakia" (which I have a theory about, since it is actually a relatively common error even among people who know better: it's just more fun to say!)
A news analyst on PBS said, "Czechosl... I mean .. Chechnia" and then went on to confidently argue for the US missile shield in Chechnia and dismissed the Russians as just wrong about everything, being very smug about it too. And no one corrected her! "Pretending that you already know the answer when you don't is not actually very helpful." ~Migeru.
I guess.
