After a week of taking heat from the Dems for his Sunni-Shiite mix gaffe, GOP Nominee, Sen. John McCain respond to the volley of foreign policy criticisms being launched from the left.

At a press conference in London, Sen. McCain said:

Well, we all misspeak from time to time, and I immediately corrected it...Just as Sen. Obama said he was looking forward to meeting the President of Canada, we all misspeak from time to time.

The remark was so witty, I felt the need to do a little research.

Thanks to the Canadian National Post, I was able to find the original story here.

Given the truth of Obama's gaffe, I would rate McCain's witty comeback an eight out of ten. For those keeping score at home, McCain is a four term Senator.

Given a guy who has been in Washington that long, that's not bad at all.
