Who the fuck is this screaming old coot on my teevee screen?
He's got white hair done up in a bad comb-over, a crooked face, a turkey neck, a smile like a shark, and a really foul attitude.

He's talking like every place he turns there are some evil people and that no one can be trusted.

But then he keeps saying 'my friends'. I don't feel friendly toward him.

1. It's Ageism! Or Cootism! Possibly Hairism!
The bigotry in this place astounds me.

10. But You Forget...
...that an astounding number of Americans are themselves old coots, or about to become old coots.

That's part of what's going to drive the race this Fall.

16. That's true. Your points are valid. No need to insult someone's looks or age.
Either their IDEAS are good, or they're not.

I'm sure we could dig up some old progressive who doesn't look so swift, and not appreciate a rightwinger making fun of them for their age or appearance.

I get outraged every time anyone insults Helen Thomas, who is quite beautiful to me. And she's no spring chicken, either.

18. I Don't...
...insult Helen Thomas. There's no reason. I respect her years of experience in being a pain in the ass!

9. This guy is a pure cartoon character...
He's a complete caricature of "old timey screamin' Republican"... It's hysterical to see him blow little bits of spittle and shake his sound-o-scope at the crowd!

13. Yeah .... THAT's the guy!
McCain, huh?

I remember him from 1998 and 1999 (and earlier) when he actually had some creds. I don't recognize this old, broken down, crazy coot, sold out version of him.
