Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson: '...I have to get smarter'
Posted by freedomforall 7 years, 8 months ago to Politics
Gary Johnson flubbed a question about Alleppo today in an interview.
He apologised for not recognizing its impotance.
Can anyone imagine either Hitllery or HRM Donald admitting a mistake and apologising to the people for it?
Alleppo? Who gives a rats ass? Just the statist looter media.

Q: "What do you think will happen now?"
My sarcastic A: I don't know. This is a disaster like the destruction of Carthage that will reshape the entire landscape of human civilization.
Q: "Have you heard from Bill Weld yet?"
My sarcastic A: Well, of course. Everyone calls when a disaster of this magnitude happens. This is like being a worker in the WTC on Sept 11. Everyone's calling and e-mailing and just wringing their hands wondering if I am even alive. I'm just shell shocked.
I didn't see the original discussion where he asked what Aleppo was, but I think that is a great thing to do. In business and especially in politics, people will just plow ahead and discuss other issues to hide their ignorance. Politicians actually keep about ten rehearsed answers and just pull out the closest one to the question asked. President Bush did it when asked about the vaccine shortage, which was a big story at the time, in a debate. He gave an answer on medical liability limits because it was the most closely related answer among those he had rehearsed.
If you had asked Secretary Clinton or Mr. Trump, they would have given whatever answer from their repertoire most closely related to Syria. They certainly wouldn't have given the soundbite I have to get smarter.
Is anyone in the media able to reason?
A perfect example of overwhelming media bias in favor of the statist looting WHorlary.
