Just cringed when I saw the clip, and the timing is horrid; practically simultaneous with another chlorine gas attack.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

To be fair, you could probably tell most Americans that Aleppo is a new prescription drug used to treat urinary incontinence and they'd believe it.
But yeah, Johnson goofed big on that one.

Most 'Murricans would think that Aleppo was Pinocchio's father.

Sorry, Libertarians - your guy just bit it big.

The libertards man is a hard right fundagelical repulbitard. He only jumped on the libertard bandwagon because his ego was too easily bruised to accept that he'd never be a big noise in the republitards.
Actually, you can pretty much say that about all the big players in the libertard party.

Johnson should have known that, he's running for president.
And of course we expect someone running for president to be adept at dodging questions and never admitting they don't know something, so it was disconcerting to hear him admit it. I'm sure the major party candidates would have been disqualified (probably excused themselves in realization that they are not actually qualified for the office) if they made such a gaffe.
I did think it was amusing that the NYT article that described the incident said Aleppo is the de facto capital of the Islamic State.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

If that kind of a gaff is disqualifying for Johnson, then Trump should have been put out to pasture fifty gaffS ago. The Donald is exceedingly ignorant.
