Satire Alert! Syrian rebels urge McCain to get over losing to Obama

It's funny because its true!

It was pretty obvious to me and the other rebels that everything McCain was doing was just to get back at Obama,” the rebel spokesman said. “And we were like, look, that election was five years ago. It’s time to move on."

I'd prefer retire because he's been such a wack-o lately, but fear what might replace him.

He really does need to get over 2008--he showed America he was out of touch by his personal comments, his choice of VP (such a ignorant Maverick!), and he has proven he lacks leadership capabilities ever since, by not getting over losing and working hard to make things better for all of the people.

McCain publicly disrespected by the Syrian opposition? That is just hilarious (even if it is a faux blog).

Borowitz is a comedic genius!

"...everything McCain was doing was just to get back at Obama"

If this was Obama and McCain was president... GOP would be throwing a fit.
