Title: I think it's time for John McCain's nap

Seriously, is anyone else reminded of John Goodman's character from The Big Lebowski? Every time there's a knock at my door, there's a little part of me that starts planning out what I would do to save myself if I looked through the peephole and it was John McCain.

He's John McCain FFS.  Are you in any way surprised?

Yes, frankly. Maybe I wasn't paying as much attention as everyone else, but I wasn't really aware that he's bat**** insane until just a little while ago.

Yeah, I hear Europe has no problems whatsoever. Unlike, evil, corrupt America.

I haven't heard that, but then again I'm kinda out of the loop. I have heard, however, that John McCain is not running for president anywhere in Europe.

If you think Republicans are bad, you've never met zaibatsu.

I'll piss myself laughing if Castro outlives McCain now. :D

He's already outlived 6 of the presidents who tried to have him killed though so I'm sure he's already laughing.

Heh, he might well at that. Whether one likes Castro or not, one has to give the man credit for sheer stubborn and bloodyminded-ness. How many leaders of state will, after they fall and break their arm and knee during a speech, stagger back up and apologize to the people for the interruption? That's class, regardless of what the man stands for.

I agree with Obamas way of dealing with Castro and Cuba. He wants to meet the new leader unconditionally and start having some dipomatic relations with the country. And start having talks about human rights, free spech and so on. Ignoring Cuba for so long is not so smart.

Kara, you know the fact that Castro's outlived a bunch of 55+ year old people means absolutely nothing?

You know, I would hope that a 30 year old would outlive a bunch of old geezers myself. It's the way life works.

Even when they are trying to kill him? Even when some of them died at an earlier age? Even when one of them was actually assassinated himself? You sir, need to work on your irony.

More to the point though an 81 year old seeing a 71 year old die first isn't exactly that unlikely.

Oh come now. I believe that every American Presidential candidate in the past 50 years has wanted Castro dead. Why should our boy McCain get a bad rap just for wanting another head of state of drop dead? Totally unfair. I would doubt his leadership skills and masculinity if he didn't personally want to strangle El Presidente with his bear hands.

Although your McCain-Walter analogy is deliciously perfect. I have no doubt that he sleeps with a loaded gun under his pillow, just in case Commie agents try to git 'im.

Cuba really tied the continent together. And they ****ing peed all over it.

Yeah but you can't just say it. You're supposed to feign professional courtesy and then secretly try to have him killed.

He said, "I hope he has the opportunity to meet Karl Marx very soon." You don't get to say something like that unless you're pumping a shotgun and wearing aviator sunglasses and sideburns.
