The Failed Pacifist

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 White Haired Guy^TM 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.
