Welcome the Poorman, Rocket Scientist, Back

The sound you hear is the sound of heads exploding all over Washington « The Poor Man Institute
Having one’s plane shot down does not make one a statesman. Sitting in Vietnamese prison does not teach one how to create and execute policy.
Well, how could it? Who expects it to do so?
Regardless, to most Americans, it’s better than sitting around church basements acting like you give a shit about poor people while the Chicago machine does it’s thing on your behalf. At the minimum, McCain was alone with his thoughts in that prison, and probably, just guessing here, decided which might be important. Or he’s a whore for Vietnamese communism. Take your pick.
As opposed to having tens of my moms chattering in NMI’s ear, while he tries to make sure he hears his wife. Which is what I imagine being a communiity activator or chancellor or whatever is all about, never having been one, of course. I’m betting it was a good lesson in trinagulation.
Still and all, nice to find the atomic scientist of the blogsphere chiming in, still. I should read lunatic blogs more often. They really are stinking genius on a stick.

Ahh General Clark. I recall reading an article on him 5 years ago. He was going to be the next one to beat Bush. A democrat who wasn’t a wimp. Looked like he had the resume. Then he began to make speeches. Hordes of people perished in car crashes while listening to him as a result of falling asleep at the wheel. Insomniacs tuned in and finally were able to fall fast asleep. The man was one huge bore. Bueller ….Bueller ….
I wonder how Wesley would have held up if he had ever been suspended by his arms while they were tied behind his back? He probaly would have spilled his guts but his captors would have fallen asleep face down in their rice bowls

No, flying a fighter plane and sitting in a Vietnamese POW camp doesn’t make one automatically qualified to become the president, but what one does AFTER such service does. At least there’s someone with a record of public service running against a man who possesses little experience and a waffle for a platform.
