Senator McCain Isn't Funny, So Stop Encouraging Him

[thepurpose]

Undignified displays of grinning nonsense coinciding with times in which he ought to be acting like a president will hopefully be recorded as significant part of Bush's legacy. And now it's clear that the president's would-be Republican successor will prove to be even less serious and dignified in the role of Smirker-in-Chief. If that were even possible. The president isn't you and me. You and I can tell whatever joke we want whenever we want because we don't have to represent 300 million people on the world stage. So if you want to tell that gorilla rape joke to your spouse or parents, have at it. If Senator McCain wants to tell a joke like that, he embarrasses more than just himself.

4. McCain is an immature frat boy in the worst way just like W

6. I understand that when he and Abe used to exchange stories Abe finally told him

that "he had many gifts but making people laugh is not one that gets him the laughs he wants"
