Is McCain just another GW Bush?

I thoroughly agree with the sentiments being expressed in this article by Jack Cafferty: http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/08/18/cafferty.mccain/index.html

John McCain graduated 894th in a class of 899 at the Naval Academy at Annapolis. His father and grandfather were four star admirals in the Navy. Some have suggested that might have played a role in McCain being admitted. His academic record was awful. And it shows over and over again whenever McCain is called upon to think on his feet.

I freely admit that I did not graduate at the top of my class at Rutgers. I am pretty darn certain, however, that I was no where near the bottom 10%, let alone the bottom 0.56% of my class. He only beat 5 people out of almost 900… and almost 1/2 of our nation is willing to give him the keys to the most powerful office in the world. Dull as McCain may be, it is not hard to figure out that the folks willing to vote for him are far more so.

George Bush’s record as a student, military man, businessman and leader of the free world is one of constant failure. And the part that troubles me most is he seems content with himself.

He will leave office with the country $10 trillion in debt, fighting two wars, our international reputation in shambles, our government cloaked in secrecy and suspicion that his entire presidency has been a litany of broken laws and promises, our citizens’ faith in our own country ripped to shreds. Yet Bush goes bumbling along, grinning and spewing moronic one-liners, as though nobody understands what a colossal failure he has been.

Well spoken. Nice summary of sentiments. I agree, and if McCain is anything like - or worse - than GW Bush, we are truly in a very tough spot indeed. All indications are that he is worse. For example, the South Carolina appearance: “Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran” - spoken by McCain to the tune of “Barbara Anne” by the Beach Boys. This was in response to a question of whether we would attack Iran. He states that he did it to add “levity” to a town hall meeting. You can see it here: http://www.cnn.com/POLITICS/blogs/politicalticker/2007/04/mccain-sings-bomb-bomb-iran.html . The man is an imbecile. he chooses to give a couple hundred voters a chuckle for 2 seconds, at the cost of destroying any hopes of diplomacy with one of the United States greatest adversaries. Does anyone actually believe that the Iranians would view that public statement as an attempt at “Levity”? Does anyone assume that Iranians get a chuckle out of it? What, exactly, would McCain say if Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made a joke to which the punchline was “bomb the United States”? I personally would not be happy. I would be absolutely appalled, even if it was the most hilarious joke ever told. So to do the same thing - on such a crap pun like McCain did? It boggles the mind. How can someone be both so incredibly stupid, and totally inept at humor at the same time?

John McCain is a stupid, morbid, war hawkish moron that I would sooner send to a retirement home to be pittied, than the oval office. Instead, he is being considered for President. What is wrong with this country?
