McCain, on 60 Minutes, portrayed himself as sooo non-partisan...
He said he'd replace Chris Cox with Andrew Cuomo-a Dem. How bi-partisan and phony of him. And he kept saying how wrong the Repubs. have been, as if he was fighting against them this whole time. He also kept lying about Obama and raising taxes. And he just happened to have an envelope with a woman's son's dog tags who was just KIA with a message telling him to make sure his death was not in vain. Then they showed a close up of his bloodshot eyes as he said something like, "This is what it's all about." But his eyes were bloodshot the entire interview. :eyes:

1. Did anyone bother to inform him
that he doesn't get to replace Cox?

3. Not yet, I'm sure.
He has no clue.

But he can fix anything....even the shit he doesn't even remotely understand.

And there I thought Bush was dumb.

5. McCain is scarier than Dubya
Never thought I'd write that about anyone.
He's not a maverick. He's a loose cannon.

6. The thing that scares ME is that he LOOKS and SOUNDS so sincere to those who don't follow politics
closely and he's lying through his yellow teeth.

7. We also learned that he's humble about the thousands of women he's bonked over the years
when he chuckled in faux embarrassment when asked about the stories of his womanizing days. Yeah, sure, John, keep dreaming.

Another thing we learned from John is that he's presently a mountain climber. He pointed out a "mountain" (He really called it that) on his property in AZ that he hikes up often. The "mountain" looked more like a glorified mole hill than a mountain. I wonder if he climbs it without the aid of Sherpas and bottled oxygen. The summit looked to be about 89 feet above sea level.

The guy doesn't exaggerate too much about himself, does he?

8. I missed half of it because there was a football game (so the DVR didn't record it all).
Do you know if/when/where I can see the whole show?
