Over at TPM, Greg Sargent slaughters it with this waaaaaaay detailed compendium of John McCain’s Iraq-war pronunciations. Alas, he was not the Bush critic he portrayed himself as. But some of these wayback-machine statements really are golden. F’r instance:
Neil Cavuto: …many argue the conflict isn’t over.
McCain: Well, then why was there a banner that said mission accomplished on the aircraft carrier?
LOLOLOLOLOLOly fucking shit that is awesome. Such reasoning abilities you want in a president.

None of these humiliations seem to be playing on the MSM shows that I try to watch before switching off in disgust. Morning Joe is getting to be so right wing that it makes me long for the days of Imus. Pat Buchanan blathering on about Obama’s elitism, Scarbarough talking cheetos…Hardball is getting worse everyday: McCain goes unanalyzed while Obama’s successes are viewed through lenses that are innately unflattering. CBS deletes McCain’s gaffes. I’m beginning to feel paranoid, but I basically have given up on following “the news” on TV. Because most people get there news there if at all, where does all of this lead? Ugh.
It’s so over, so “Mission Accomplished” that we need another 100 years?
Yeesh.
He doesn’t look that flexible, you know? Looks like a fragile, palsied old man and not like a member of the Cirque du Soleil. How does he get all bent over doubled like that?
“…that we need another 100 years?”
You know, Obama being a secret muslim extremist can be found alongside this in the tired old debunked category of factcheck.org.
A look at polls will tell you conservatives got a reason to peddle BS fabrications about their opponent. What’s your excuse ?
