Fox News Sunday's Wallace, Chicago Tribune's Dorning falsely claimed McCain's repeated Iran training falsehood was momentary

SUMMARY: Fox News Sunday's Chris Wallace falsely claimed that Sen. John McCain "momentarily mistook Shias and Sunnis in Jordan," and the Chicago Tribune's Michael Dorning asserted that if Sen. Barack Obama "makes a mistake" on his upcoming overseas trip, "it'll be a much bigger deal than, say, when McCain was in Jordan, or somewhere in the Middle East, and basically mixed up Shia and Sunnis for a moment." In fact, McCain did not "mix[] up" Shias and Sunnis just for a moment; he made the false statement three times in two days.
