I assume the AP’s Calvin Woodward will be on Olbermann’s list after this. An excerpt:
OBAMA: ‘’Why else would he define middle-class as someone making under $5 million a year?’’
THE FACTS: The reference is to McCain’s interview with megachurch pastor Rick Warren earlier this month. When Warren asked McCain to define the word ‘’rich,’’ McCain said, ‘’Some of the richest people I’ve ever known in my life are the most unhappy.’’ He said being rich should be defined by having a home and a prosperous and safe world. ‘’I don’t want to take any money from the rich. I want everybody to get rich,’’ McCain said. When pushed on an exact number, he joked: ‘’If you’re just talking about income, how about $5 million?’’ He added, ‘’I’m sure that comment will be distorted.’’
