FTFA: Senator McCain is releasing his medical records on Friday in an attempt to allay concern over his health and stamina.

This is something I really REALLY don't want to know about.

That's the independent maverick spirit that will lead us back to greatness!

That hurried, clandestine review of his medical condition sure is some straight talk!

Well, they're at least allowed to take notes for the 35 seconds they are allowed to review all 700 pages.

They'll just have to skim through looking for the word "INOPERABLE".

Well, it is an important point. After all, we need to know how long he can maintain his war hardon so he can continue farking this country up the ass.

Operation Chaos: subby: Hitler was just a modern-day Pied Piper


Yeah, but the good news is that now we have a new one!


You suck so badly at this trolling thing! Don't you REALIZE the goal of a troll is to get people to argue your statement? All we're gonna do is sit here and point and laugh at what a gigantic douchebag you are! Why... WHY do that to yourself? Is sadomasochism a trait we should be aware of?

You gotta admire that McCain and his mavericky toughness!

Why do people who use the Pied Piper metaphor always remember only the 2nd half of the fable?

To all of you sane and rational Farkers, and the thousands of other Farkers, I have to say that Pastor Hagee is truly a boil on the butt of humanity. For most of us here in San Antonio, where this buffoon fleeces his large congregation, we would like to make you an offer. Those of us that still have a brain and haven't had it removed and replaced with pillow batting, we will give you Hagee for the worst of your city. You name em we'll trade em. No questions asked. Hell we'll even cover the shipping both ways. This asshat is a constant embarrassment to the fine rational folks of this city. I for one, am fed up with his antics and am making this offer to you. We'll just trade our village idiot for yours. Thanks for your time.

I knew this would happen. Easy.

See, he used to want Hagee's endorsement. So obviously he wouldn't at some future point. Gotta keep that spotless flip-flopping record intact.

/Batting 1.000.... good jorb!

The Hagee flap should be a reality check for those of us (including, to be honest, me) who were tempted to consider the 2006 midterm election as marking the end of the Christian fascist movement as a serious force in American national politics.

These people are going to be with us for a long, long time to come.

McCain doesn't love Hagee any more.
Reminds me of some relationships I've seen.

"A" gets all hot and bothered over "B". "A" does everything "A" can to win "B"'s attention, favor, hot body...whatever. "B" decides "A" is acceptable and agrees.
Success! Right?
Well....no.

"A" discovers that "B" has some problems that kinda got glossed over at the beginning.
Chemical dependencies, spends too much money, lies like a rug, a former "A" (or several) in the background, STD's, ties to the Mafia, or is just plain batshiat crazy.

"A" doesn't love "B" anymore.
"A" breaks up with "B", noisily, messily, publicly.
All "A"'s friends shake their heads and say "I tried to tell you, but you just wouldn't listen."

The Aristocrats!...er, I mean...The Republicans!
