If it was a just one-time slip of the tongue, perhaps it could be dismissed as a verbal miscue in the heat of a long, tiring presidential campaign.
But Monday was not the first time John McCain has referred to Russia’s policy on fuel sales to “Czechoslovakia.”
Czechoslovakia? That nation hasn’t existed in more than a decade.
And McCain cites his experience in both domestic and international affairs?
For the record, Senator, Czechoslovakia ceased to exist back in January 1993 when the country split into two independent nations: Czech Republic and Slovakia.
It makes you wonder which international hot spot McCain will next focus on. Rhodesia? The Soviet Union? Burma? Formosa?
Maybe he’ll just attack the League of Nations.
