McCain Jokes About Killing Iranians

This story first broke last night, and the big media have yet to really 
pick up on it, but this really deserves more attention:

Sen. John McCain hasn't had good luck joking about Iran. But he tried it 
again Tuesday. 

Responding to a question about a survey that shows increased exports to 
Iran, mainly from cigarettes, McCain said, "Maybe thats a way of killing 
them."

He quickly caught himself, saying "I meant that as a joke" as his wife, 
Cindy, poked him in the back.

That's not very presidential, now is it. It'll be interesting to see what 
kind of coverage and commentary this generates, if any.
