The unintentional comedy of the McCain campaign

As spotted in the WaPo:

"Senator Obama is a perfect manifestation of a September 10th mind-set ... He does not understand the nature of the enemies we face," McCain national security director Randy Scheunemann told reporters on a conference call.

Well, if Randy, here, is the one responsible for keeping John "Iran is training Al Qaeda" McCain hep to "the nature of the enemies we face," I'm thinking he can turn in his resignation any day.

And, thanks for serving that one up on a tee for the O-Man to knock out of the park:

"These are the same guys who helped to engineer the distraction of the war in Iraq at a time when we could have pinned down the people who actually committed 9/11," the presumed nominee told reporters aboard his campaign plane. "This is the same kind of fear-mongering that got us into Iraq ... and it's exactly that failed foreign policy I want to reverse."

Y'see, Randy, you might not want to invoke the tragedy of 9/11, claiming you're the only ones who "get it" when the one guy you were supposed to get is still walking around, laughing at you.
