Johnny McLyingscumbag : I "voted for every investigation" into Katrina

WRONG! Nice try, Johnny Cakes.

McCain was asked by a New Orleans reporter why he voted twice against an independent commission to investigate the government�s failings before and after Hurricane Katrina, and he incorrectly stated that he had "voted for every investigation."

McCain actually voted twice, in 2005 and 2006, to defeat a Democratic amendment that would have set up an independent commission along the lines of the 9/11 Commission. At the time of the second vote, members of both parties were complaining that the White House was refusing requests by Senate investigators for information.

The McCain campaign accused the Obama campaign of "tired negative attacks" for pointing out and documenting McCain�s gaffe.

"John McCain: Old Or Lying?"

And there's a cure for "tired negative attacks" against him--tell the truth!

But, it very well could be that the mind just ain't as sharp as it never was.
