Do you find McCain's comments about Iranians as funny or racist? I think that they are the latter. I have Iranian friends in Canada.

Answer:
McCain's remarks play to the base. It's a simple as that...more babble in the farce that is U.S. politics. Iranian Americans I know are quick to point out that most Iranians are not fans of Ahmadinejad or the religious leaders who are really running the show. Funny isn't it that the right seems obsessed with Iran which does not yet have nukes and ignores North Korea a country with nukes, a starving populace and unstable leadership. Not one question was asked during the Hagel hearings about North Korea while over 150 were asked about Iran.

I'm not sure about racist, but definitely rude and uncalled for. You'd think a sitting Congressman would have a little more brain power.

McCain sucks.

I just think he is scared, angry and pissed off at the whole situation but I think he should realize that the since the 70's the whole situation has been a manipulation anyways... maybe to get people from over there over here they create a problem that really is not one just want to make it look like one for that purpose... ~Nemo~

I believe he was referring to the man himself, not the entire nation of Iran. I actually it would be great for President Ahmadinejad to go to space. But then I suppose he would want to come back.

It's exactly as racist as when Bush was photoshopped to look like a monkey. So, not at all.

I don't see how it's racism. Ahmediwhatever isn't black. Also, I give McCain a little slack. He was, after all, a former tortured POW.
