Poll question: How will Admiral McCombover vote on FISA, and how will he justify it?
I've started this as a regular discussion thread (here), but I thought I'd post it as a poll too.

How do you expect Admiral McCombover to vote on the FISA bill now in the Senate, and what cowardly excuses will he use to justify it?

1. John Sidney McCain III was only a CAPTAIN. Didn't make Admiral.

2. How embarrassing for him.
And the very reason why I call him that--he could never be as good as his father or grandfather.

3. He'll whip out a can of spinach, twirl his corncob pipe around and around and shout
"that's all I can stands, I can't stands no more". Who knows how he'll vote, but at least he'll get his periodic angry outburst over with.

9. Yes, but it's snarkier to say "Commodore" ...
... at least in a maritime 'culture.' In the naval services, a 'Commodore' is the senior officer in a fleet, no matter how small or large. He COULD be an ensign with seniority. Any officer who's responsible for a ship is called "Captain" aboard that ship no matter his/her actual rank. Similarly, the senior officer in command of a group of ships is called "Commodore" no matter his/her rank.

But so is the President of a Yacht Club. (think "Caddyshack") :evilgrin:

11. Fair enough, but I still think Admiral is better...
Admiral is his personal failure; it's like calling a really dumb person "Einstein".

I could go with Admiral McC*nt of the USS Trollop, too.

8. Not an admiral, but rather a failed son

10. Which is why I mockingly call him Admiral.
It's kinda like when you call someone who royally screws up "Einstein".
