"In case you missed it, a few days ago Senator Clinton tried to spend one million dollars on the Woodstock concert museum. Now, my friends, I wasn't there. I'm sure it was a cultural and pharmaceutical event. I was tied up at the time."

1967-73
I don't agree with McCain on some policy issues but let's not forget that the man has given more for this country than all the other presidential candidates combined. Here's the video:

Unbelievable. That was worth the price of admission! "Pharmaceutical event" -- Awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love it. The fact that he can tell a straight-faced joke about being POW for 5 1/2 years gives me a huge amount of respect for him.
ReplyDeleteMuwuahahahahahaha! Classic. You know what's sad? I bet he just got some votes for that - you know people are so lame and would vote for someone just because he's able to tell a good joke! (or for a similarly lame reason)
ReplyDeleteSeriously! He's a great man and that was a great line, but if I voted strictly by who I thought was the funniest, I'd be working on the "Kevin James for President" campaign (nice tie-in, huh?).
ReplyDeletePeople are woefully uninformed and so a line like that makes a guy stand out in the crowd to the average American voter.
