John McCain Must Be Terrified Of Video Cameras

jeremy — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 22:00:54 +0000

I’ve been stuck at home all day… thanks a lot, surgery… so I’ve had plenty of time to browse around and share some videos of McCain that I’ve found and found amusing and/or horrifying and/or straight up flabbergasting. YouTube is addictive, for sure.

Ok, I’m starting to get nauseous and I don’t think it’s the Vicodin. Time to start watching something else.

Bush on Bush (You Know, Not A Man Of Peace)

Phrases such as “bring them on” or “dead or alive”, he said, “indicated to people that I was, you know, not a man of peace”.

That stellar quote, from an interview with Bush by The Times is on part with what a lot of people have thought of him for many, many years.

“I think that in retrospect I could have used a different tone, a different rhetoric.”

Do you think, George?

Hillary Will Concede To Obama Tonight (Kind Of)

It looks like Hillary is planning to (somewhat) step out of the race tonight. She’ll concede the Obama will have enough delegates to win the nomination, but may not go so far as to step completely out of the race. You never know when somebody could be assassinated, right?

That combined with the mass of superdelegates that’s planning to endorse Obama over the next day or so will probably lead her to finally bow out completely. We’ll see. The real question is how hard she will push to become the vice president candidate, which IMHO would be a complete mistake for Obama.

Hillary, Journalists, And Whiskey

Some great pictures of Hillary knocking back a glass of whiskey with reporters have been published, leading at least the writer of that article to believe that:

Her relaxed mood may give rise to speculation she is preparing to concede to her Democratic rival Barak Obama.

Props to Hillary for not being afraid to drink in public, and if she really is thinking about dropping out, props to her for that as well.
