Do condoms help stop the spread of HIV?

Quick quiz: do condoms help stop the spread of HIV?

Most (sane) people, even many evangelicals, would probably say “yes,” even if it is from a statistical standpoint.

But John McCain doesn’t even know!

Q: “So no contraception, no counseling on contraception. Just abstinence. Do you think contraceptives help stop the spread of HIV?”

Mr. McCain: (Long pause) “You’ve stumped me.”

How dumb can this guy be? I would say that I’m politically moderate, and I did consider the possibility of voting for McCain if he is chosen to run in 2008. But I don’t think I would vote for a guy this dumb!

  1. For the record contraceptives could refer to birth control pills that have no effect on the spread of STDs.

  4. John McCain is also a very good politician. he did not win because the people are not satisfied on the Republicans.*,~
