1. He's been hangin' out with Palin.
Or the botox has seeped in to his brain.

Or he's just senile.

4. Yup. Part of the gold policy for the privileged few. Maybe that's
the way things are, but not how they should be.

6. He said something like "unless you get expensive health care that covers cosmetic surgery &
transplants". Really? I canada transplants are considered regular surgery for anyone who needs them.

10. He said something about the golden cadillac insurance plans
Edited on Wed Oct-15-08 10:36 PM by Jennicut
that so many of us seem to have (not). Hey, McInsane, as a 32 year old diabetic how will that $5,000 get me a health plan? After all, preexisting health problems raises the price of health insurance dramatically if you have to "shop" for a plan. I like my Cigna plan through my husband's unionized job just fine, thanks.

12. No, no, that's not what McCain said...
He said people who drive Golden Cadillacs have cosmetic
surgery and many of them are transplants who hate
Joe the plummer.

At least that's they way I interpreted it.
