Holy Crap - John McCain is whining about being misunderstood like a petulant boy.
Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 10:16 AM by FLDem5
Wow. We must really be mindfucking his campaign. He is coming across as pathetic and desperate for attention.

Is this "my wife doesn't get me" schtick what got Cindy to overlook his being married, because its weak and silly.

"I never promised the gas tax holiday would be a long term plaaaaaaa-an. He keeps saying its a giiiii-mick. I wish he's stooooo-op. Its not faaaaaa-ir."

My, my, my... I like this.

(on edit: MSNBC just showed part of his live speech).

1. Obama is calmly pushing
the right buttons for McSame to show his well known temper. I'd love to see him lose it at a debate and have a full blown temper tantrum.

3. He sounds like the Nihilists in The Big Lebowski
"But it's not fair! His Girlfriend gave up her big toe."

Right now America is seeing all this and thinking, do we want that kind of whining, desperate attitude in the White House?

First, he stuttered and stumbled his way through that speech. He almost sounded like he was rushing to get out of there.

But, worse, he brought up World War II and Charles Lindbergh in the same speech! It made him look frozen in time, out of touch, and even older. Bringing up our industrial base in WWII probably left everyone in the room stunned, since that same base has been destroyed by globalization and no longer exists. We know this, why doesn't McCain?

One of his worst speeches yet. I'm glad MSNBC showed some of it :)

7. He almost seems to want it to go away. First the whine about how "unfair" the Bush comparison is,
now the whine about having his OBVIOUS flip-flops called out--AND YET THE MEDIA STILL LOVES HIM.

Shut up, asshole; you can retire in November--and this Arizonan thinks it's a FINE idea.
