McCain's BFF: Tom Coburn

John McCain just can't help but reveal  his profound ignorance of basic issues, for instance when questioned about HIV prevention and condoms.

Per the New York Times:

What followed was a long series of awkward pauses, glances up to the ceiling and the image of one of Mr. McCain's aides, standing off to the back, urgently motioning his press secretary to come to Mr. McCain's side.

The upshot was that Mr. McCain said he did not know this subject well, did not know his position on it, and relied on the advice of Senator Tom Coburn, a physician and Republican from Oklahoma.

McCain revealed his masterful grasp of the facts:

"The guy I really respect on this is Dr. Coburn... I'm not informed enough on it. Let me find out... I have to find out what my position was... Get me Coburn's thing, ask Weaver to get me Coburn's paper that he just gave me in the last couple of days. I've never gotten into these issues before."

So who exactly is this Dr. Coburn?
