McCain makes another Iran joke -- about 'killing them' with cigarettes

Earlier in the campaign, Republican presidential contender John McCain drew lots of critical attention for jokingly singing "bomb bomb bomb ... bomb bomb Iran" (to the tune of Barbara Ann) during a townhall meeting.

Yesterday, he made another joke about Iran that's getting attention.

Asked about a report that the biggest U.S. export to Iran is cigarettes, McCain said, "that's a way of killing them." He quickly added "I meant that as a joke." The Associated Press says the candidate's wife Cindy poked him in the back as he made the wisecrack.


Haha...wait, that wasn't funny...
