Crazy John was born on August 29, 1936.
Not that this is news, but keep it ever in mind. If elected, he will turn 72 years old within months of taking office.

He's a crazy old coot now. Imagine when we're four or six years deep into a McCain presidency. This can NOT be allowed to happen.



(Thanks to Rick Myers for this great photoshop job on an iconic Dr. Strangelove image.)

the hospital. Pray for him.

4. He's definitely got a place in Stranglove
When he looks out over a crowd smiling as he says "Never surrender...Never...Never" - Husb, it gives me the creeps.

10. Me too.
Even Bush (waaaaaaay back in 1999) didn't creep me out as bad as this crazy old coot does.

He's seriously deranged.

13. That's what I was thinking when I replied earlier
But I think I shocked myself with that thought. He's worse.

9. Did you folks know???
John W. McCain lost a total of 5 MILITARY AIRCRAFT during his career??? As an AF vet, I can tell you, losing 1 usually ENDS your career.

And he recieved 29 awards for performance in combat?? He racked up a total of 20 hours of combat, recieving approximately 1.5 medals per hour!!! Many men sat in the frigging jungle under combat for months at a time and didn't even get a 'welcome home' handshake!!!

14. This is a guy who...
is/was what's called a "legacy" in academic admission circles, just like GWB. He finished damn near the bottom of his USNA class, which would usually keep one out of flight school. He's been on the public-sector payroll all his life, with the attendant ultra-cushy benefits, including health care and retirement far beyond what was available to us private-sector, tax-payin' folks. The "hero' status is way overblown; tens of thousands of our military have been POW's, many not surviving. He's a product of myth-making media with a suspicious agenda. I call BS on him.
On his combat awards..thanks for posting that. Source? Maybe he got a good-conduct medal for every successful carrier landing?

12. His birthday coincides with the third anniversary of Katrina and the opening of the GOP convention
I'm sure we'll see these pictures a lot around his birthday. Hopefully the priorities they reveal will linger in voters' minds when the convention opens up a couple of days later.
