McCain Suspends Campaign in Order to Learn About "the Issue of Economics"

The liberals who complain about Bush never admitting to any (alleged) mistakes should be thrilled by McCain's campaign suspension campaign. McCain admitted that "the issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," and now he's doing what he can to fix that. In all fairness, McCain has always had a plan: "I want to set up a committee headed by Alan Greenspan, whether he's alive or dead, it doesn't matter... If he's dead, we'll prop him up and put dark glasses on him, like in Weekend at Bernie's." With all due respect to Greenspan (who doesn't even look like Bernie Lomax, but whatever), what could be more educational and eye opening for McCain than spending a Friday night observing a real life financial crisis up close and personal? So, consider this McCain's crash course in economics. Or crash course in the crash of the U.S. economy. It's really amazing what you can learn by observing first hand. And I think that after his econ-immersion course, McCain's understanding of the economy will be as comprehensive, and as keen--if possible--as Sarah Palin's view of Russia on a clear Alaskan day.
