Still Yelling at Clouds

Appearing on a Sunday morning talk show for the one billionth time, Sen. John McCain made one of the stupidest accusations since Dan Burton shot a watermelon in his backyard.

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Sunday that the Obama administration’s handling of the situation in Libya is either the worst cover-up he has ever seen or the kind of incompetence that should disqualify the president from serving as commander in chief.
“This tragedy turned into a debacle and massive coverup or massive incompetence in Libya is having an effect on the voters because of their view of the commander in chief,” McCain said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “And it is now the worst coverup or incompetence that I have ever observed in my life.”

Two words: Keating 5.

On November 7th, I will drink John McCain’s tears with a splash of vermouth and two blue cheese-stuffed olives.
