Let's give McCain an August SURPRISE birthday party!
McCain's birthday is August 29th. He was born in 1936 making this his 72nd birthday. Wouldn't it be great to throw him a surprise 72nd birthday party complete with ads on tv wishing him a happy 72nd birthday? Maybe our celebratory ad could include images of things as old as he is!

it would be a good time to bring up the Hurricane Katrina stuff.
quote his bullshit line about how if he was near air force one, he would have gotten on the plane himself and gone to New Orleans. And then show the picture of Bush and McCain partying next to air force one, eating birthday care. "Oh wait. You WERE there..." and then list off all of the legislation that he voted against for Katrina. And maybe include his quote of his denial about his voting record on Katrina.

10. Let's list them right now....!!!!
"Gone With the Wind" published

July 17 Civil war broke out in Spain

The 1936 Olympics, held in Berlin, are best remembered for Adolf Hitler’s failed attempt to use them to prove his theories of Aryan racial superiority. As it turned out, the most popular hero of the Games, was the African-American sprinter and long jumper Jesse Owens, who won four gold medals. During the long jump competition, Owens’ German rival, Luz Long, publicly befriended him in front of the Nazis. 1936 saw the introduction of the torch relay, in which a lighted torch is carried from Olympia to the site of the current Games. The 1936 Olympics were also the first to be broadcast on a form of television.
