McCain’s Hard-Working Flip-Flop

I basically did this yesterday, but here’s a splice of John McCain praising the hard work of the American people in contrast with his earlier contention that Americans are too lazy to pick lettuce even for a $50 an hour wage:

Of course the kind of guy who doesn’t realize that most Americans don’t have over $100,000 sitting around in their bank account probably doesn’t realize that $50 an hour is a really high wage. Sure, you could easily earn $100,000 in a year on that kind of wage, but if you’re John McCain that won’t even cover half your annual servant expenditures so why worry about it.
