thinkprogress.org — Today, ABC?s Charles Gibson questioned Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) about Gov. Sarah Palin?s (R-AK) foreign policy experience, noting that she hadn?t traveled overseas until last year. McCain replied by pointing out that ?Alaska is right next to Russia?

Maybe you can't afford 4 more years of this, but you're not who he crafts his policies for. The rich are the ones who benefit from conservative policies, as has been the case for hundreds if not thousands of years. Watch for the male suicide rate to go up if we go further down the wrong path with these conservative asshats.

Right after he says she has experience because she lives next to Russia he goes on to say that Obama has never been south of the border!??!?! I mean, its not like he just went on a world long week tour meeting with dignitaries or anything.Either McCain is a total moron or he thinks we all are. My money is on both. He also goes around touting the fact he was fifth from the bottom of his class in naval academy. How can people actually put confidence in this guy!!

How many Russian bombers have flown off Alaska's coast over the past 2 yrs.I think Alaska is on the nuclear front line.How much any governor has to say about the guard, I'm not sure.

The "Alaska is next to Russia" line reminds me of the "Chewbacca Defense." It doesn't make any sense.

I'm convinced McCain is of below-average intelligence. There's a reason he finished fifth to last in a class of 800+. Geez, now that I think of it, most people would have to PUT EFFORT into getting that spot.

No s**t. I'm talking about general in state none emergency conditions. How much state governorship involvement month to month.

I have to believe the governor is briefed on such events and possible conditions.First to fire first to get hit is front line.
