Can’t Lead for Falling Behind

The Obama Camp need not worry about McCain. Just put the old guy in front of a microphone, and out of his mouth will come a statement that’ll cause people to pity him. That’ll get some votes, but it is one hell of a weak strategy for the long haul.

“Make it a hundred years.”
No thank you, old man.

“Muqtada al-Sadr declared the ceasefire in Basra.”No, McCain, it was Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki who brokered the ceasefire. Getting it right the first time is needed this time around. You really are very similar to George Exxon Bush in many ways.

“I support Bush on all major issues.”
We know that you do not and never have supported Bush on all major issue, old man. The problem is you do not remember what you did and did not support. If you have a chance at all, sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity will have to carry you as they did George Exxon Bush.

“Rush Limbaugh is a clown.”Not one of the smartest things a Republican politician could say, but then you’ve never won any Ben Franklin Awards. Did you think that Limbaugh and his loyal listeners would just roll over and kiss you old butt?

“I’ve never met Bill Cunningham.”
Excuse me. You met Cunningham twice and there are witnesses and even a picture. Go back to Arizona old man and live it up on your wife’s millions. You don’t need this aggravation and we sure don’t need you making decisions in the Oval Office like you did in Vietnam. Getting lost, then getting shot down, and then making propaganda tapes for the enemy is just not very presidential. I say this as a Vietnam veteran who was shot down twice and is a registered Republican.

“I’m computer illiterate.”
Frankly, being almost seventy years old myself, McCain, and having set up four websites and three blogs, I would have preferred you lied about this one. It makes all of us in this age bracket look incredibly stupid to anyone under fifty.
