The "gook" comment is several years old, but it's a real comment. As usual, context is important here, and the context for this comment was that McCain was talking about his prison keepers in Vietnam, that to him that's what they were.
Considering what he went through, I can't blame him for having those feelings. Although as a public figure he should know better than to throw it about before a reporter.

Seeing how you just accused McCain of something that Spence showed to be wrong info, that's ironic.  |

Likwid, you stated he said it "yesterday" which Spence said was wrong. I don't know if Spence is right but I'll bet he is.

It's possible that he said it again recently, but I remember the real story was several years ago.

No buckman, I didn't state sh*&. I copy and pasted the origional comment from the news.
If you notice its in ITALICS
Usually when you use ITALICS it means its a QUOTE.
Notice how in the box text are in ITALICS.
And that is our 5th grade interwebs lesson for the day.
