| How Old Is John McCain |
| 2008-04-18 |
| ht to Campaign Spot on NRO - nice perspective John McCain was born on August 29th, 1936. So here’s an idiotic lefty “attack” ad designed to spook all of us into into freaking out over how old that actually is. ad omitted - go to link to view Among the items mentioned, the ad notes that John McCain is older then… The Golden Gate Bridge Plutonium Coke in a can McDonalds Velcro OK, smart-ass, that sword cuts both ways; here’s my list of things John McCain is older than. John McCain is older than betraying national security secrets on the front page of the New York Times. John McCain is older than the fundamental break-down of family structure among the poor. John McCain is older than Rev. Jeremiah Wright. John McCain is older than having to explain to your children why everyone on the TV is talking about the President’s penis. John McCain is older than the ban on lawn darts. John McCain is older than 9/11 Troofers. John McCain is older than the ACLU being taken over by radicals. John McCain is older than Hillary’s secretive health-care task force. John McCain is older than the public sphere being filled with near-pornographic advertising that is impossible to avoid. John McCain is older than facial moisturizers for men. John McCain is older than Gangsta Rap. John McCain is older than politicized CIA agents distorting a National Intelligence Estimate on Iran’s nuclear program because they don’t like the President’s (i.e., their boss’) policies. John McCain is older than Roe v. Wade. John McCain is older than Michael Moore. I’m all for change and progress… but some of what’s new since 1936 hasn’t been an unqualified improvement, and there’s nothing wrong with preserving (or trying to recover) the good while getting rid of the bad and embracing the future. So by all means, if the Democrats want to have a debate over what John McCain is older than, let’s have it. I suspect a lot of folks haven’t had to wait until 2008 to finally find something about America to be proud of. |

| #1 John, take heart, you youngster, you're younger than GK. And the kids on the ad sound younger than Gulf War I. |
