Is there any doubt that McCain is rapidly losing what's left of his mind?
Most certainly, he confirmed his mental descent at a campaign stop today in
Pennsylvania:
"Across this country this is the agenda I have set before
my fellow
prisoners," McCain declared. Then, oblivious to the words he'd spoken, he continued lambasting Obama for, of all things, being
"less clear" about his vision.
"The same standards of
clarity and candor must now be applied to my opponent," the senile Senator proclaimed.
Clarity!
"Our opponent," Palin told a group of donors in Englewood, Colorado, "is
not a man who sees America like you and I see America!
FORT MYERS, Fla., Oct. 6:
...Palin supporters turned on reporters in the press area, waving thunder
sticks and shouting abuse. Others hurled obscenities at a camera crew.
One Palin supporter shouted a racial epithet at an African American
sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down, boy."
...speaking to a sea of "Palin Power" and "Sarahcuda" T-shirts, (Palin) tried to link Obama to the 1960s Weather Underground. "One of his earliest supporters is a man named Bill Ayers,"
she said. ("Boooo!" said the crowd.) "And, according to the New York
Times, he was a domestic terrorist and part of a group that, quote,
'launched a campaign of bombings that would target the Pentagon and our U.S. Capitol,' " she continued. ("Boooo!" the crowd repeated.)
"Kill him!" proposed one man in the audience.

"Take a look at the CEOs of Fannie Mae,
Freddie Mac, AIG and the Lehman Brothers. I know, the first thing that
jumps out about these faces is that they all happen to be white... and
they all happen to be responsible for stealing.
"But what you have to
understand is that these whites are a product of a society that made
them that way. It was the neighborhoods and the schools they went to:
Harvard, Yale, the Wharton School of Business. They never learned the
value of doing real, actual work and the first step to fixing that is
better role models, so kids growing up white today don’t think the only
way out of Westchester is corporate crime. Or a government handout or
sailing.
"So, I get it, the temptation is to look at John McCain and vote
against him because you don’t see an individual, you just see another
typical welfare whitey.
"And it’s true, he’s spent his entire life shuffling from one
low-paying government job to another. Well, except those years he spent
in prison! Typical! And between you and me, he’s not very articulate.
Oh, he may have some street smarts, but he’s not what you call an
educated man. He freely admits he’s ignorant about the economy...
"And
apparently the only thing his white running mate knows how to do is
crank out one baby after another. And now of course, her teenage
daughter is pregnant out of wedlock. Because she learns it at home!
"But
that doesn’t mean we should assume all white people are like that, just
because so many of them are. I believe there is hope. I believe even
the stupidest, greediest, laziest whites can break the cycle
of dependence...
"Like this November when George Bush finally moves out
of public housing."

Last week, John McCain repeatedly expressed his concerns about Czechoslovakia -- a nation that has not existed since 1993.
This week, the esteemed Senator is worried about a border -- that has never existed!
On Monday, the evidently senile presumptive GOP presidential candidate was asked by ABC's Diane Sawyer: "Is the situation in Afghanistan precarious and urgent?"
To which McCain thoughtfully responded: "I think it's serious. . . .
It's a serious situation, but there's a lot of things we need to do. We
have a lot of work to do and I'm afraid it's a very hard struggle --
particularly given the situation on the Iraq/Pakistan border."
Of course, Iraq and Pakistan do not share a border.
Never have.
Never will.
(How about the situations in Gaul and Prussia, Senator?)
Speaking to the press Monday, John McCain expressed concern about
relations between Russia and Czechoslovakia.
"I was concerned about a couple of steps that the Russian
government took in the last several days," he proclaimed. "One was reducing the energy
supplies to Czechoslovakia. Apparently that is in reaction to the
Czech's agreement with us concerning missile defense, and again some of
the Russian now announcement they are now retargeting new targets,
something they abandoned at the end of the Cold War, is also a concern."
Czechoslovakia, of course, ceased to exist in 1993.
On a more positive note, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee told the New York Times that he is currently working diligently to decipher the complicated new fangled technology known as the Internet:
"I am learning to get online myself," said McCain. "And I will have that down fairly soon, getting on myself."
What year is it Senator?
