John McCain is a Wily, Traitorous Little Devil

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

img-johnmccain8.jpgMessage to prominent Republicans with presidential ambitions: do not confess to not voting for your party's standard bearer in a national election to any snarky, Greek heiress claiming to be your ideological compatriot. By the time enough people in your party take you seriously enough to nominate you, you will probably have surrendered 93 percent of your principles in order to shore up your base while she will probably have switched sides and become the outspoken leader of a campaign to annoy the shit out of you.

For example, here's Arianna Huffington on John McCain today:

At a dinner party in Los Angeles not long after the 2000 election, I was talking to a man and his wife, both prominent Republicans. The conversation soon turned to the new president. "I didn't vote for George Bush" the man confessed. "I didn't either," his wife added. Their names: John and Cindy McCain (Cindy told me she had cast a write-in vote for her husband).

Of course, that said standard-bearer will have become a national disgrace by the time you decide to run, in which case such a confession will probably help to burnish your maverick credentials, further endearing you to the 72 percent of people who hate your party and its nominal leader more than they hate the angry crocodiles that killed their Everglades treasure hunting fathers , but inexplicably kind of like you. In which case, you may just be a genius.

A cranky, old, maniac genius.

  1. McCain is trying to reach out to us Independents, only his confession is a little too late, even for conservative Independents.(yes, they are out there-I've met a few). As for me, a liberal Independent, there is nothing he can persuade me to believe-he supported everything Dubya tore down from the Constitution to women's right to decide what happens to their bodies and lives, to cancer research and development.
    As for Hagee, he's trying to fill Jerry Falwell's shoes-badly. His feet just aren't big enough to fit Falwell's shoes. Too bad Billy Graham isn't alive-I wonder if he'd have endorsed Sen. McCain? My guess is he would.

  3. If the worst thing De'.s can say about McCain is that in 2000 he DIDN'T vote for Bush, we're in big trouble.

  5. Hmm no. I'm not seeing a point here. I should go back to a workforce where people make their living off of watching me work, monitor me doing work, and lazily think of ways to make me work harder instead of streamlining existing systems.
    Keith Olbermann likes Comedy Central? Rock! Isn't he that guy that upbraided Bush with real logic and insight instead of bottom feeding on Hitleresque tactics of self-victimization like every other f#$king news anchor on the planet? How did you sneak into my America? Tsk your sad sad tsking back into the Corporate line! Shame on you!

  6. (sigh)….yet another network whose greatness has fallen to the childish, college-aimed liberal mindset. What the hell happened to Comedy Central? Every time I flip past that channel it looks (and sounds) like MSNBC with 30 minutes of South Park every week.

    I will hand it the creators of Lil' Bush, they have accurately portrayed how liberals ACTUALLY view the republican party….and it is beyond adorable.

    It's such a sad commentary that everyone now fancies themself an intellectual and political expert. The humor of this channel is long gone and has been replaced with shows reflecting the 2% of the population that hold Keith Olbermann's view of the country. Keep watching Stewart and Colbert and thinking that you're a part of something…(laughs out loud).
