McCain on Larry King Live last nite

Did anyone watch McCain's take on *'s speech last nite? Here's the part that just blew me away:

<snip>

COSTAS: Senator McCain, we are where we are, and most people believe that if we just up and left, chaos would ensue. But suppose, for the purposes of this exercise, there were two buttons in front of you. You could only push one. If you push button number one, the best possible realistic outcome, as we speak now, ensues in Iraq. If you push button number two, we never went there in the first place. Which button would you push?

MCCAIN: Oh, by far, button number one. Look, I believe we're making progress towards a democracy in Iraq. That's already having an effect in the region. Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya has already had an effect. There was a bad guy. Weapons of mass destruction or no weapons of mass destruction, the sanctions were eroding, and if Saddam Hussein were still in power, he would be attempting to acquire and use weapons of mass destruction.

1. He has turned into a #1 Ass-kisser

I am so disappointed in this man, I used to think he was honorable. What did I know?

3. He tap dances well for a disabled veteran

I supported him against Bush in the 2000 primaries. Since that time it appears he has had a bit too much of the Koolaid proffered.

4. We were in Vietnam because of the Domino effect

We're in Iraq for for the same reason according to Bush.

5. The prosecution rests

This is our sole exhibit as to why John McCain is not fit to be president of the United States. What say ye, members of DU who think that McCain would be an acceptable Republican candidate?

7. He sucks eggs.

Just my opinion, but I'm stickin' to it... I'm all sorry he was a POW, but apparently they done washed his brain CLEAN AS A WHISTLE...
Now Nancy Pelosi, she gave 'em hell last night: see my post

Bush Babbles--America Sits Stunned--Pelosi Kicks ASS!

9. I was surprised at Costas' interviewing

I thought he did a good job overall throughout the program.

McCain's take didn't really surprise me at all. Everytime there's a Bush Event like last night, he leads the pep squad of the Party Loyal.

10. McCain gave up his integrity when he became a RW tool.

He's aiming his message at all the morans that voted for Bush.

Maverick Smaverick.
