Senator McCain on his age as running in 08 kind of funny what he said...

I'am older than dirt and I have many scares and I would like for people to meet my 95 year old mother who just got back from traveling from France. quoted on This Week

1. "John McCain--If you loved Bob Dole..." nt

2. Yeah, the guy's a laugh riot

Here's a joke he told at a Republican fundraiser-

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
Because her father is Janet Reno."

The papers wouldn't even print it, calling it "too vicious".

3. Good for the newspaper. I didn't care for him and now this turns it into downright dislike. n/t

[Rose Siding]

4. I'm glad they recognized it as vicious, but this was around the same time

they were printing every salacious detail they could scrape up about Clinton. I see bias in their decision not to run McCain's offense. The media still looooooves McCain.

10. Chelsea got the last laugh

'cause she turned out beautiful. McCain, on the other hand, is still the same old gasbag whore that he has always been.

5. This is McCain's standard response to the question about his age. Let's not give him a forum on DU.

The media is obviously still taken with McCain, after all his flip-flopping. Now he says even though he voted against Bush's tax cuts, he will vote to extend them because they would now be a "tax increase" all the while lamenting we are placing this burden on our children and grandchildren.

This man is full of shit and should not be taken seriously.

6. I think he's crazy -

and anyone who'd crawl in bed with the guy who made such a vicious attack on my family (bush/rove & the charges of "black baby" during the SC primaries) - is NOT to be trusted.

He's proven that politics come well above principal in his book.

9. Why does McCain always act so damned pious?

How can he suck up to the guy who tried to ruin him?

7. They should increase taxes 50% on less wealthy 100% on wealthy

for 1 day then same day cut taxes for less wealthy and reduce taxes on super wealthy to 25% with no tax deductions

starting point

8. I wonder why one side of his face keeps getting bigger and

bigger. The eye on that side droops a little, too. Shouldn't they ask him if he's still cancer free?

11. "Older than dirt". You ARE dirt Mr. McCain. (eom)
