The purpose of this post is actually twofold.
First, it’s to point out the inconsistencies in what presidential candidate John McCain says in various interviews. Here’s the video in question.
Towards the end, you’ll note criticism of the media. That’s a little ironic, since some of the clips selected feature the mainstream media calling McCain on some of the very points this video is making.
But criticizing the media is just so much fun that it should be okay. Even if the criticism itself is a little skewed and misses a few facts…like the reports the critics like to jump on so much.

Yeah, there is some media scrutiny shown in this video, but it seems like a lot of the media is giving McCain a free pass, that they still consider him the maverick who will buck the Republican Party over the important issues. But he’s skewed to the right to win the nomination, seeking the endorsement of John Hagee, Rod Parsley, Jerry Falwell and others who he once called “agents of intolerance“, softening his previous stances on issues like campaign finance reform and the environment.
