TEHRAN (July 13) - Iran has condemned U.S. Republican presidential candidate John McCain for joking about killing Iranians with cigarettes and said it showed his "warmongering" foreign policy attitude, media said on Sunday.

McCain, who once sang in jest about bombing Iran, on Tuesday reacted to a report of rising U.S. cigarette exports to the Islamic Republic by saying it may be "a way of killing 'em."

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini said: "McCain's crude remark on the indiscriminate killing of the Iranian nation not only testifies to his disturbed state of mind, but also to his warmongering approach to foreign policy."

In a statement quoted by the website of Iran's state Press TV satellite station, Hosseini added:

"We condemn such jokes and believe them to be inappropriate for a U.S. presidential candidate. It is most evident that jokes about genocide will not be tolerated by Iranians or Americans."

McCain, known for acerbic comments and for sometimes firing verbally from the hip, was responding to a report that U.S. exports to Iran rose tenfold during President George W. Bush's term in office despite hostility between the two countries.


Oh Lord the idiotness is contagious it seems. Bush must have rubbed off on McCain somehow.frustrated huh what whoa

mine heitates some too.

A librarian was escorted away from a McCain event for holding a sign that said "Mc Cain = Bush" In the interview afterwards she asks why this would offend republicans.
They proved her point because this is exactly what bush was doing during his campaign.

well...it might have something to do with the fact that if Bush's approval rating were any lower then it would have to look up to see the bottom of the Mariana Trench...

FANTA......

Who are you to make fun of John McCain by calling him McConfused? You are the one who is confused what with giving yourself the name "Fanta." Fanta is a woman's name. I know, because I just hired a new employee whose first name is Fanta. I asked her about her name and she said it is a female African name, meaning "beautiful day."

Therefore, if anyone is confused it is you Fanta, calling yourself by a female name. laugh Accordingly, it would be most appropriate to call you "confused fanta."

Anyway, I have an early day .... got to go. Bye bye you poor "confused fanta." :banana:

Why do you feel the need to put other people down? Does it make you feel superior?

Putting people down is against the rules here.
