McCain reacts to Cindy's presence...

[Ghost in the Machine]

Looks like he's trying to hold back from blowing chunks..

1. What's that on his wrist?

I hadn't noticed it before. Some kind of med-alert?

[Tangerine LaBamba]

4. That's an American soldier's name

on a bracelet - someone who's in Iraq - as I understand it.

It's total, absolute, overwhelming, really beautiful proof that McLame supports the troops. :sarcasm:

[Arugula Latte]

9. Isn't it nice he helped send that soldier there to possibly get slaughtered for corporate America?

That's sweet, I think.

[Catch22Dem]

5. It's a POW/MIA bracelet

You can get them with the names of people who are either currently being held captive or were MIA and never found.

[DesertFlower]

10. my husband and i wore them

during the vietnam war.

[la la]

14. I wore one

never took it off, until I saw him walk off the plane.

Robert McQuiston was his name.

[DesertFlower]

15. i don't remember my

guy's name, but i got all excited when he was released.

[Obamanaut]

17. My bracelet was Stockdale, later became Perot's running mate. nt

[Missy Vixen]

19. I wore one, too

My guy, 1st Lieutenant Clive Jeffs, has never been found. The bracelet cracked in half after being worn every day.

28. I had one too...

and I could swear it was Clive Jeffs! I haven't been able to remember my guy's name for years, but when I read your post, I could almost see it carved into the metal... That bracelet meant so much to me.

[zbdent]

18. Does it have his own name on it?

So he remembers it on the campaign trail?

"I'm ... uh ... " reads wrist band "John McCain, and I approve this message" ...

2. Further proof that this Time Cover is airbrushed

In reality, McCain is pretty decrepit... On the Time cover they airbushed away twenty years of health problems

[Delphinus]

7. When I saw the picture posted by the OP,

I flashed back to the one you just put here from Time. Yep, total distortion of the facts. Can't we send them both and say - "Ha! We're on to you!!"

[jazzjunkysue]

24. Even I can edit photos, but that's a world-class job.

He looks human.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

3. JESUS!!!!!!!!!

LOOK AT THOSE HANDS!!!!!!!!

My mother, who was a great beauty, always warned me that "the hands are the first to go."

If this isn't proof that Mom was right, I don't know what is.

[DesertFlower]

11. he's only 5 years older than me.

someone please tell me that my hands won't look like that.

[Tangerine LaBamba]

13. He spent lots of time in the sun

That's why his hands look like that. That and genetics. If your hands don't look like that now, they won't in five years.

[DesertFlower]

16. they don't.

i stopped going out in the sun about 7 years ago. got a few brown spots on my arms and legs. my face is okay. i was able to erase a lot of sun damage with Retin A. i live in arizona too. it's hard avoiding the sun here.

:hi:

[wellstone dem]

21. At the age guessing booth at the state fair

the guy looked at my hands.

And I still won a prize!

[Tangerine LaBamba]

23. Mom was right!

'Way to go, winning a prize!

[dflprincess]

25. My mom always said that too

and now she wonders why anyone bothers with plastic surgery when your hands will always give you away. I remember my grandma holding one of my nieces, stroking the baby's hand and saying "Ah - there's nothing like new skin." It is frightening when you compare your hand to a little kid's.

[Botany]

6. He is old

No way is that man fit to be President.

[Speck Tater]

8. A picture from his navy days

[chat_noir]

12. This pic is perfect for DU YouTube video filmmakers

Is there a forum where DUers can teach/learn about making YouTube clips?

I've made a couple with Windows Movie Maker...If I can do it, anyone can. Trust me.

[jimshoes]

20. Man I gotta remember to wash my hands

after wiping myself

[qwlauren35]

22. He's no Geritol Poster Boy!

I'm surprised the camera didn't shatter. I just saw a lot more detail than I wanted to.

Cindy is an amazing woman. With her money, I would have dumped him for someone younger years ago. She either loves him, or wants to be First Lady VERY BADLY.

[Montauk6]

26. Looks more like he's gesturing, "SHE'S A PIGGY-PIGGY!"

[gulliver]

27. That's my widdle pwesident, there. Isn't im cute!

I've got the earrings, the suit, and my widdle doggie. Thank you, Daddy! The whole set!

I want an Oopah Loompah.

[bobd0]

29. John Sydney has done much worse than blow chunks at "Cindy"
