DRIED-UP SACK OF SHIT SPEAKS OUT ON THE WOT

Just like McCain, Bud Day is senile, ignorant and an extremist. He has no business being involved in foreign policy and McCain has no business pandering to this fossilized freakshow.

As Bud was pissing in his pants and drooling out of his nose, he managed to come out with this piece of fear, from Matt at Think Progress:

During a phone call with Florida reporters today that was arranged by the McCain campaign, McCain surrogate Col. Bud Day defended the war in Iraq by arguing that “the Muslims have said either we kneel or they’re going to kill us“:

One of John McCain’s fellow POW’s in Vietnam defended the war in Iraq, saying, “The Muslims have said either we kneel or they’re going to kill us.”
In a phone call with reporters arranged by the McCain campaign, Colonel Bud Day added: “I don’t intend to kneel and I don’t advocate to anybody that we kneel, and John doesn’t advocate to anybody that we kneel.”

This is exactly the line that the right-wing extremists have been pushing for years and is more proof that McCain is unfit to be President. Let's be clear that McCain stands behind Bozo Bud's comments, from Greg Sargent at TPM:

The McCain campaign is declining to disavow a top surrogate's assertion that "the Muslims" have said that "either we kneel or they're going to kill us."
As noted below, the comment was made by Bud Day, a frequent leading surrogate for McCain, on a conference call with Florida reporters. I asked the campaign whether they agreed with the assertion.

Here's what McCain spokesperson Michael Goldfarb sent me:

"The threat we face is from radical Islamic extremism."

This isn't quite how Day described the threat -- the McCain camp attributes it not to "the Muslims," but rather to radical Islamic ideology -- but the McCain campaign won't explicitly say it disagrees with Day or disavow his remarks. If anything, it shades a bit in the direction of backing Day up.
