McCain: Wrinkly white-haired guy

I don't even know where to begin with this. I guess the McCain campaign invited it by running the celebrity ad against Barack Obama, but now Paris Hilton has responded with her own Web video. Be warned, in addition to terminal vapidity it's got a naughty word or two.


As if that's not enough, the McCain campaign has decided to respond.
 
“It sounds like Paris Hilton supports John McCain's 'all of the above' approach to America’s energy crisis — including both alternatives and drilling," said spokesman Tucker Bounds. "Paris Hilton might not be as big a celebrity as Barack Obama, but she obviously has a better energy plan."

So let's get this straight — McCain insults Obama by comparing him to Hilton, now he says Hilton is better than Obama, and in essence claims her video is an endorsement.

Now don't tell Paris, but even though McCain may be wrinkly, he's at least old enough to run for president. The Constitution doesn't really mention being "hot" as a prerequisite.

Still, dare we ask what Britney's response will be?

Well, it was cute. But Paris is not hot. She IS sexy if that is what you are after. The hottest women are conservative, which is why McCain will win. The guys want to be where the hot chicks are so they will be on the conservative side.

"Be warned, in addition to terminal vapidity it's got a naughty word or two." Oh no, hopefully not the "C" word that McCain called his wife! Actually, I think the vapidity began with the McCain ad that attempted to link Obama to P. Hilton and B. Spears. Perhaps that original vapidity is just a consequence of being old and wrinkly. And if poor ol' McCain really considers PH's video to be an endorsement, he probably hasn't heard that her mother -- who has contributed the max to his campaign -- called his orginal ad "frivolous" and a "waste of money." It appears that is is no longer Obama, but rather McCain who is now being associated with the likes of Hilton. And probably not in a way that the McCain campaign appreciates.

Miss Buffalo Chip Cindy McCain, WOW, McWorse is ready and willing to parlay his wife for the happy thrill to talk to a big crowd. The shameless ‘maverick’ leader wants his wife to get down and dirty and win the cow dung titled contest. On YouTube, see him offer up his wife in a sexually and nudity orgy of a contest, the crowd roars for Cindy to showoff her boobs. This is not a lie go check it out for yourself on YouTube. When the crowd started to seriously take his offer, he tried to quickly change the subject and foolishly twisted his tongue stammering in total embarrassment about muddled and confused talk on 4 dollar gas and his famous drill here drill now phony baloney. Drill Who? Where is the blistering brimstone and fire outrage from Mr. Bible, religious expert Dr. Dobson, The Fix News blowhards and the hard right conservative commentators and the right press? Are they too proud of the experiences and stellar judgments of their shriveled up buffoon and sexist standard bearer to their conservative Republican Party. Where’s PUMA and all those Hillary voters for John McCain the wife abuser and Cheater in Chief( McBill worse). Why does most of the press insist on closing McCain’s closet door whenever he purposefully opens it for us all to peek in horror? The double standard stench is so putrid, if it was Senator Obama, they all would be saddling up their front pages and blowing away in a crazy cacophony about how undignified and immoral he is. Thereafter, they all would offer up their opinions on how deep into the scum Mr. Obama had sunk his campaign and the honor and respect of his family. Now, who (THE PRESS) is in the tank with Forgiving Love for who (JOHN MCSHAME)? During that same Miss Buffalo Chip straight talk, Senator McCain with his family in tow and South Dakota’s Senator Thune too, well constitutionally speaking, Juan Flipper McCrazy stated that when he is president he will not allow the democratically elected U.S Congress, an independent branch of our federal government to go on vacation, McWorse will most likely, declare martial law on the U.S congress to force his will, goodbye U.S Constitution, and Hello to the New World Order of McTyranny.

Can you imagine what Paris will look like if she is fortunate enough to live as long as John McCain. They will call her "Little Ms. Rubberboobs of 2050". She is mad because he sees something she will never be. In reality she is nothing more than a spoiled brat.
