Ladies and Gentlemen, The Comic Styings of John McCain
Even when cracking jokes about women being raped by gorillas, that silly John McCain:
Ever hear that joke about waterboarding? How about the one about killing Iranians? And why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
If you aren't familiar with those witty japes, then you've missed out on John McCain's lighter side. Rooted in a time before there was political correctness, and before there was the "South Park" backlash against political correctness, McCain's wisecracking persona is cutting at times, self-deprecating at others, and always amused by the political process swirling around him. Even in his pursuit of the White House, the candidate has — sometimes to the dismay of his handlers — managed to keep his sense of humor.
I know that the media love affair with McCain runs deep, and wide. But, give me a break.
The "humor" that McCain displays, even in the most favorable light, is neither funny, nor able to be mis-interpreted.
"Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran"?
How does one mis-interpret that?
One could go on, but why? His jokes are off color, sexist, and not funny. It doesn't matter if it is 1950, 1970, or 2008.
