This story reminds me of why we have to think long and hard about who we are voting for this year. All of the gaffes (Czechoslovakia, German President Putin, Iraq/Pakistan border, etc) tell me that it would not be too smart to put such an elderly person in control of "the button."

Good post and very true. Unfortunately, often when you bring up the very relevant subject of McCain's advanced years you are accused of "ageism."

I would rather have mccain behind the wheel than the offspring of this guy.


Obama Sr. lost both legs in an automobile accident, and subsequently lost his job. He died on November 24th 1982 in poverty, at the age of 46 in a car crash in Nairobi.[4

He drives a Corvette, which for some reason really irks me.

No word on what he was driving back when he ran a red light "at a high rate of speed" and plowed into someone's car, in 2004:

Chimpy has already driven our nation, our image and our finances into the ground.

If we get McCain, he will finish the job and drown us in a pool of debt.
