When did John McCain turn into Mr. Furley from Three’s Company?
This May, 1973 article in US News & World Report recently surfaced online. It seems to be the first time McCain publicly spoke about his North Vietnam captivity; Gawker honed in on the most WTF? part of it: McCain thinks he possesses gaydar.
Now I don’t hate them any more—not these particular guys. I hate and detest the leaders. Some guards would just come in and do their job. When they were told to beat you they would come in and do it. Some seemed to get a big bang out of it. A lot of them were homosexual, although never toward us. Some, who were pretty damned sadistic, seemed to get a big thrill out of the beatings.
I know McCain was Navy and therefore probably knew from gays; but both Vietnamese culture and Southeast Asian communism were and are extremely hostile to gays. Forgive me if I’m questioning the validity of his gaydar, but saying guards were openly homosexual with each other is ludicrous.
In addition, his most recent gaffe was even more worryingly absent-minded than usual: When asked in an interview with Politico yesterday how many houses he and his wife owned between them, McCain couldn’t remember and stammered out
“I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” McCain said. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.”
Hey John–counting lofts, ranches, and condos, the answer is ten. You’re welcome.
I look forward to McCain announcing Larry Dallas as his running mate and changing the GOP convention location to the Regal Beagle.
If John McCain and Don Knotts had a sitcom together, we could call it “Whigs And Toupees.” It would be set in an old folks home, and John McCain’s mild dementia would be a hilarious foil for Don Knotts constantly trying to score some Viagra-facilitated senior booty.
The Truth is: Walnuts is ashamed to admit how many fucking houses he owns because the housing market crisis has left many of us out on our asses. He ought to be ashamed, rich out of touch republican motherfucker who intends to play the P.O.W. card all the way to the white house.
Newsweek did a cover on “The End of the South” in which they make mention of the holocaust, slavery, and the KKK. Well fuck me Newsweek, we forgot to tell you that the bullshit stops here. The buck stops some fucking where else, probably India or China? Yet, the bullshit stops here. We’re not honoring any fucking card playing; Race, P.O.W., or otherwise. And No, it won’t be our fucking fault if Obama doesn’t win, though, we are a convenient scape goat for just about everyone’s shit. Make me feel bad for not honoring bullshit Newsweek, but don’t blame me because the Dems can’t manage their shit. We don’t give anybody a goddamn break down here. McCain won’t be getting one either. As for the Clintons we have three words: No Longer Relevant. We’re not pissed about Hillary, we’re pissed at her. Fucking Hillary, you dumb bitch, how oh how did you blow that goddamn lead. Moreover, Bill, you dick stupid bastard, why oh why did you not redistribute that fucking wealth (surplus) when you had the chance? We think we know, one party sets us up, the other party knocks us down, and nine fucking people (supreme court) grant everyone the right to be whatever the fuck they want. Meanwhile, we can’t get the right to be intolerant or assemble exclusively. What the fuck?
