McCain's Fabulous Life

The Wrinkly Old White DudeTM can't remember how many homes he has.

His staff says at least four, Obama says seven, others say ten or more.

McCain Wasn't Tortured

Well, at least according to the Bush administration.
Cheney denies that McCain was tortured; as does Bush. So do John Yoo and David Addington and George Tenet. In the one indisputably authentic version of the story of a Vietnamese guard showing compassion, McCain talks of the agony of long-time standing. A quarter century later, Don Rumsfeld was putting his signature to memos lengthening the agony of "long-time standing" that victims of Bush's torture regime would have to endure. These torture techniques are, according to the president of the United States, merely "enhanced interrogation."

Jews, Christians, and Muslims

The Wrinkly Old White DudeTM is a bit unclear on some concepts.

Gingrich Brings On Teh Stoopid

No, really:
So Sen. Obama was urging you to go out and enrich Big Oil by inflating your tires instead of buying gas.

No "Cone of Silence" at Saddleback

Despite assurances from Reverend Rick Warren that "we have safely placed Senator McCain in a cone of silence", it has now come out that the Wrinkly Old White DudeTM was not isolated, but was actually in his motorcade traveling to Saddleback Church while Senator Obama was being questioned.

Later, when Rev. Warren asked the GOP candidate "Was the cone of silence comfortable that you were in just now?", the Arizona Senator didn't correct the impression, but instead indicated that he had been sequestered away by joking "I was trying to hear through the wall."

Now his campaign is complaining loudly, and once again invoking the Senator's POW status 40 years ago, about the suggestion that he may have been listening to his opponent's answers while traveling to the church. Why his history as a POW during the 1960's is relevant to the present incident has not been explained.

Is McCain Gay For Obama?

If not, why is his campaign obsessing over this.

CNN Asks: Obama the Anti-Christ?

Sigh

It's Elizabeth's Fault

Some fat guy is suggesting it's Elizabeth Edwards fault her husband was unfaithful. And of course he does it in a very classy way.
LIMBAUGH: OK, we're back. Ladies and gentleman, my theory that I just explained to you about why -- you know, what could have John Edwards' motivations been to have the affair with Rielle Hunter, given his wife is smarter than he is and probably nagging him a lot about doing this, and he found somebody that did something with her mouth other than talk. I think I can back this up from her.

McCain: Iraq Not So Serious

The Wrinkly Old White DudeTM is saying the Russian/Georgia conflict is "the first probably serious crisis internationally since the end of the Cold War". I wonder how that'll go over with our troops.
