"Well have you always been faithful to Cindy McCain?"
"There's a story coming. I don't know how it is going to break or where, but McCain will not enjoy the benefit of an enthused evangelical base. Wheels are turning."

(Read down to the last sentence in the article, then you will understand the context!!!!)

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/6/14/2349/45753/199/535762



"Senator McCain - I noticed you aren't wearing your flag lapel-pin. May I give you mine?"

McCain: "Yes, sir, you can" (what else was he going to say? - he really wasn't wearing a flag pin)

now I had him front and center...

"Senator, I spent four years in the Marines"

McCain: "Thank you for your service."

"Oh, no sir, thank you for yours. I have a feeling this is as close as I will ever come to pinning a medal on you." (said as I'm fastening the lapel pin) "Senator - you know our motto is Semper Fidelis - always faithful?"

McCain: "Oh yes, I do"

"Well have you always been faithful to Cindy McCain?"

Deer-in-the-mother-fucking-headlights.

McCain: "Oh no... that's not what I'm going to talk about."

"Have you been faithful to your wife? You won't answer? C'mon - how 'bout a little of that straight talk?"

(crowd beginning to get angry - hissing)

McCain: "Young man, I will tell you that I have a son serving in Iraq in the Marines."

"Yes - I know. I know a lot about you. Have you cheated on Cindy McCain? Why won't you answer?"

McCain turned away.



More people should have the journalistic integrity of Mike Stark

1. oh, my.
the media will be pissed they spent all day parsing Edward's sex life, because now they will be forced to report on their boy if this turns out to really be something.

5. they won't get the balls.
I just think of how David Gregory QUICKLY puts the shhhhhh on the prospect of any nefarious McCain activities from Dem panelists. I wish Rachel had been on tonight, but at least Mark Green tried to slip it in.

35. It's not yet a matter of courage.
There just isn't a story yet. So far, it's a rude question that went unanswered.

41. It wasn't a rude question, not at all, it was a VERY important question
which has been asked by the Reich-wing since 1994, and now we get the right to ask it too.


Rude? Rude is 4500+ dead soldiers in Iraq. Rude is 6% (listed) unemployment. Rude is TRILLIONS of dollars in debt and finally rude is the stolen elections of 2000 and 2004. Asking a senile old scumbag if he has been faithful to his second wife is a legitimate question.

About another (potential) negative event.

Edited on Sat Aug-09-08 07:45 AM by Gabi Hayes
this didn't take place onstage, but in the aftermath, hence very little chance of video being released (at least w/audio), as happened to him previously

Stark is quite the character, hey?

do you always have to log in to photobucket to see sites, like yours?

I just tried...no ID for me

26. He'd just lie. He's done it before and will do it again.
You think this type of thing will trip up McCain? No chance. He already lied about it in his book. He lied about his Keating involvement. I think in his own head, he truly believes he DIDN'T cheat on his wife, even though everyone knows he did.

He's a lying scumbag sack of shit and will only continue lying.

38. Mccain would not cheat on MONEY.. and she's got shitloads of it..
He NEEDS access to that moolah every few years, to run for re-election..

and...

he has not been that dashingly handsome 40-something military hero...for a long time..He's lucky to have her, and he knows it...

46. Whenever I get paper bags, we put them down for the babies
Sara & Marvin like to hide in them and pounce, but Momma cat always comes along and squashes them.. She lays on anything paper or cardboard..like an fluffly ole hen sitting on a nest..then Sara & Marvin try and try to crawl inside a flattened bag :)

Our kitties are more fun to watch than most of what's on tv:)

He was not even a politician back in those days.

Holding public office was just more icing on that cake.

Can you imagine this man operating a business? Disaster.

43. But JSM III lies through his poorly capped teeth.
He'd have no problem deciding he was "faithful in his heart" and thus responding that oh yes and forever he had been faithful to his petite blonde wife who adds $100 million + to his $40 million net worth and shares their 7 homes.

It's a complete non sequitur, but it's supposed to make everyone stop and say "oh, your sons are fighting in Iraq!"
