    McCain uses loop hole to rake in the big bucks.

    "Earlier in his political career, the Arizona press reported that he'd cracked a rape joke... a joke his aides then and now say he doesn't recall making."

    Ummm... so is this McCain's new strategy - the senility card?
  • snabby · 1 year ago
    My thinking exactly. I imagine he doesn't recall what's making his pants so squishy, either.

    Johnny McStain, he's not insane or anything else...

    This sounds so much like typical Republican posturing. The "I don't remember" card, despite the press coverage at the time. Republicans and the media keep saying that Americans all know about John McSame as a "maverick" "straight-talkin' dude". . .and that is all they intend on letting the American people know.

    If McCain would enact the JibJab cartoon and stick his finger into the side of his face and make that squelching sound, now THAT would be funny! Nothing that comes out of his foul mouth ever is, however.

    Y'all!!! I was just at Miami Grill where they had the TV on and, well, first Al Gore was mumbling some chit about GLObal WARMing (ladida), but THEN, CNN switched over to JOHN MCCAIN and he was saying that the surge has been SUCCESSFUL!!!! I was SO excited to hear that that I just HAD to share it with everyone here. Isn't that GREAT NEWS????
    BTW, has anyone noticed how the folks at JM's town hall meetings look so tired? They must have to stand in one long long line to get in to see him b/c they look like they are about to fall asleep - all breathing out of their mouths and whatnot.

    McCain is no comedian, and no "hero" either. Quite honestly I can't stomach the man, or his "shadow" wife either. McCain demeans woman, and then sends out Carly Fiorina to pander to them (especially ex-Clinton supporters) why isn't Cindy"homewrecker" McCain doing that. She follows her husband around like a shadow. I don't remember Hillary Clinton, Theresa Heinz Kerry, Laura Bush, Elizabeth Edwards, or Michelle Obama doing that.

    Cougar McTart follows Grampa McSame around for the same reason the First Mrs. McCain should have followed him around, so as not to lose him to another trollop-type.
    When you're vying to become the First Lady, you certainly don't want anyone fishing off your company pier.

    I thought a cougar is a woman who goes after younger men. Cindy is a trophy wife.

    Best McCain joke ever? His reinterpretation of the Beach Boy's song "Barbara Ann", when discussing Iran.....classic.

    Didn't you HEAR me??? The surge was SUCCESSFUL!!! That can only mean that the troops are packing and will be home any day now, right? And Iraq will be left as a peaceful democratic nation who's government and people are forever in our debt, right? So, oil and gas prices should be coming back down by like next week, right?

    So this senile pol, his opiated wife and a hawkish old Jew walk into a bar tended by an aloof intellectual with a foreign-sounding name.
    After hemming and hawing the senile pol finally orders what the bartender has been drinking all along.
    Noticing the bartender dumping coins into a tip jar, the old pol say, "Hey you freaking Czechoslovak or whatever, I demand my change!"
    The bartender just smiles laconically and slides a double vodka and a Mogan David & 7Up Shirley Temple toward the pol's companions...The old Jew pats his pockets apologetically as the woman fishes a $50 and 2 large capsule-shaped white pills out of her expensive bag.
    "Prada?" asks the bartender.
    "No", says the senile pol, "Abbott Labs..."

    Can anyone think back to a more P A T H E T I C presidential campaign than that of John McSAme? Week after week he forgets, stumbles , changes positions regularly, uses foul jokes, makes basic errors, denies past positions or simply "forgets" them, copys Obama,and uses convoluted statements to confuse those foolish enough to listen to him. Perhaps before not too long the Republicans will find a way to dump him.

    The rape joke was so hilarious, I wonder why he doesn't attend Tailhook conventions.
