John McCain Is Un-American

Posted by Noah Noah on February 27th, 2008

Literally, it seems.

Via Oliver Willis, we discover that John McCain was in fact born on a naval base in Panama.

Why does Juan McCain hate our troops so much? Why?

Apparently Juan McCain doesn’t think the United States is the greatest country ever to exist in the entire solar system, period, or else. If he did, well, he would have chosen to be born here, because Republican zygotes are sentient beings! Duh!

Go home Panama Juan!

By predicting publicly that he would win.

Bushtrodamus doesn’t exactly have the best track record when it comes to prediction making.

He’s also not against torture, as he voted against the waterboarding ban in the Senate today.

But a few months ago, while debating torture apologist Rudy Giuliani, McCain said that he was against waterboarding because it was torture.

If someone can explain to me how this makes any sense, and how John McCain is still anti-torture, still a maverick, and still chock full o’ principles, I will switch party affiliations and vote for John McCain in November.

I’m waiting…

Apparently, Ol’ Freddie Thompson endorsed John McCain a few days ago, but nobody knew about it, not even CNN.

Could it be that Ol’ Freddie was just too lazy to appear on t.v. for like 10 seconds and say, “Shucks, folks, I sure do like John McCain. Golly, gosh and shucks.”?

I mean, a t.v. crew could have even just gone over to Ol’ Freddie’s ol’ house and filmed him for a couple of minutes talkin ’bout how, golly, John McCain sure would make a great prezdent.

Apparently Ol’ Freddie is even too lazy for that.

McCain/Thompson ‘08!

This is a very weird story. So the primary coverage was bouncing along Saturday, with Mike Huckabee trouncing John McCain in Kansas and winning a squeaker in Louisiana. The race in Washington appeared to be going down to the wire, too. And then… the Washington GOP just stopped counting and gave McCain the victory. Leading to this exchange between the head of the state GOP and Huckabee’s lawyer (and his daughter-in-law):

Finally, Luke Esser, the chair of the state GOP party, returned the Huckabee campaign’s call, saying the final results would be determined sometime within the week.

The only hitch? The state chairman had already declared John McCain the winner last night, with only a 242 vote lead. In a written statement last night, Esser said, “Congratulations to Sen. McCain for a hard-fought win, his second caucus victory in the 2008 presidential nomination process. And congratulations to Gov. Huckabee for his strong second-place finish.”

Huckabee campaign lawyer Lauren Huckabee (daughter-in-law of the candidate), who is skeptical of the fairness, asked for a lawyer to monitor the resluts.

The state GOP denied the request and hung up on Lauren Huckabee, according to the campaign. Campaign adviser Ed Rollins will be sending lawyers to Olympia, scheduled to land this evening, to investigate the matter.

At a hastily arranged press conference in a hotel room, Rollins was steamed.

“You don’t get to announce the votes until they are all counted. And obviously, by his attempts to project without any statistical data or even if he had statistical data, it’s irrelevant: we’re entitled to a fair, full count,” Rollins said.

“Our lawyers attempted to contact him today, finally did so about ten minutes ago. He said, ‘Well I don’t know where the precincts, are, I just sort of did it. How dare Mike Huckabee challenge – he has to trust us. We’re going to count the rest of the votes today in the office.’”

“We asked to have someone go in to the office with them and count the votes and he refused us. He said he would have to notify the other campaigns.”

Huckabee called it Soviet-style tactics and he’s not wrong. The Republican Party is a top-down establishment outfit, and they clearly have an interest in wrapping up their race with the utmost speed. But stopping the counting? McCain is playing dumb about it and trying to say “trust the state GOP,” but it’s kind of hard to do so when they shut down the election and declare a winner before all the votes are in.

John McCain Is Mean

Posted by Noah Noah on February 8th, 2008

Yes indeed:

“Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno.”

– John McCain, 1998

Think the mainstream media will remember that one?

These guys never seem to get it do they?

Redstate.com Editor Erick Erickson tells his audience that they must read a piece in today’s Wall Street Journal which makes the case that the Republicans lost the election in 2006 because of out- of-control spending, and argues that they will lose the 2008 election as well if they don’t work towards “re-establishing the GOP as a party of limited government and economic freedom,” and pick a fiscally conservative running-mate for McCain.

It’s no secret that John McCain believes that his party lost the 2006 mid-terms because of spending (so does former candidate and still fascist Rudy Giuliani), and with a clueless doofus like him at the top of the ticket, Democrats should take advantage of the opportunity to continue to highlight how out of touch with the country the Republican party is.

After all, the Republicans lost the 2006 elections because of Bush’s unpopularity, the war in Iraq, and corruption. And Bush will still be president come this November (and he seems eager to campaign for McCain, which of course could likely doom the Senator’s candidacy), the war will still be going terribly, and a new crop of scandals is threatening to further sully the Republican party’s reputation.

You guys just keep running on the idea that the country hates you because of over-spending. I dare you.

Just when you thought all of the interesting potential First Ladies were out of the race!

We’ve lost Jeri Thompson and Judith Giuliani to boneheaded campaign strategy. But thanks to the Powers of Murdoch, we’ve now got Mrs. Cindy McCain to kick around. Here’s the Sunday Times of London’s hit piece (thanks, AW) on Senator McCain’s entry to the Republican Not-First-Wives’ Club:

A former Arizona rodeo beauty queen and daughter of a millionaire Phoenix businessman, Cindy McCain was 25 when she met her future husband at a cocktail party in Hawaii. John McCain was a 43-year-old naval liaison officer travelling with a congressional delegation, his sights already set on a political career.

He was also still married to his first wife Carol, although the couple had recently separated. Carol later attributed the breakdown of the marriage to “John turning 40 and wanting to be 25 again”. McCain fell like a brick for Cindy, who was the heir to a brewery distribution business worth millions. For several years afterwards the McCains endured Washington gossip that he had dumped his first wife - who had been crippled in a car accident - in favour of a trophy bride to enhance his political ambitions.

It was in the late 1980s, after a series of miscarriages and giving birth to three children, that Cindy developed spinal problems and was prescribed painkillers after surgery. Her husband and family had no idea she was secretly taking pills stolen from a charity she had created called the American Voluntary Medical Team, which sent mobile surgical units to war zones. When federal agents began to investigate gaps in the charity’s records, Cindy telephoned her husband, a senator in Washington, and confessed.

She admitted at the time that the 1994 episode had “nearly destroyed both of us”. But she underwent treatment and attended meetings of Narcotics Anonymous as part of a deal with prosecutors who dropped charges.

[…]

The McCains have never publicly blamed Bush and their relations have been outwardly cordial. But Cindy recently admitted that she keeps a “grudge list”.

Mid life crises!  Adultery!  Abandonment!  Pills!  Grudge lists!  Awesome. A First Lady who will keep track of who has been naughty and who has been nice. If Super Tuesday remains indecisive, you think Romney’s people will go on a tear against Mrs. McCain?

I’m watching this speech with Rudy Giuliani endorsing John McCain, and afterwards McCain gets up there and mentions 9/11 three times in his 5-minute speech.

It’s like a disease that’s catching.

p.s. The end of the prospect of Rudy Giuliani in federal government should bring howls of joy across the nation and maybe even the world. The man was a psychotic with post-traumatic stress disorder, and an authoritarian narcissist who would have been the worst possible outcome for any logical human being. The idea that he would be in any kind of McCain veepstakes is beyond crazy. Um, what great campaigning skills does he bring to the table? Would he compel a strategy of sitting out the general election and waiting for a December run-off?
