McCain on 60 Minutes.
So far, it's interesting. They are cutting in with previous quotes of his when he's lying.

Needless to say, there are lots of cuts so far.

2. McCain would cut the defense budget
the fed budget increased 40% since bush took over -- paraphrased

I think Obama is up next (?).

3. LOL! He just threw Bush under the bus!
Without mentioning that he voted most of the time with the administration that failed.

Then he had the gall to share the blame with Dems who have controlled Congress for 2 years, but conveniently forgot to mention they didn't have enough votes for over-riding Pres. Idiot's vetos.

McCain will impress the uninformed, that's my biggest fear.

6. "Sixty Minutes" are a bunch of bullies
That's what you'll hear from the believers.

They're beating up on an old man.

DID YOU KNOW THAT JOHN MCCAIN WAS A PRISONER OF WAR?

Me, I'm watching a "House" marathon on WUSA.

26. I truly enjoy that misanthrope with a cane and a taste for jazz and vicodin.
It must be my analytical addiction.

13. Scott Pelley is not pulling any punches
but he is being fair. IMO

So far. . . (My handlers tell me now that) I can't fire the SEC Chairman, but if I could I'd replace him with Andrew Cuomo.

If elected, I'll move my office out of the White House. So then it will just a place he visits occasionally? Like it's been for W?

20. McCain said he would move the "political office" out of the White House
Recalling when Scott McCLelland said that the bush White House was in "permanent campaign mode". That's me recalling...

17. that dogtag part made me very mad!!!
That was obviously staged ... find a Republican mom with a kid who was tragically KIA, and manipulate her into presenting the dogtags to him at the tarmac, just in time for him to flash it on 60 Minutes. I don't believe for a minute that it was a coincidence! These people make me sick! How dare he take advantage of a fallen soldier that way! I hope the media follows-up and gets to the truth.

22. Everyone does. Blinking while lying is a 'tell'.
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/07/11/1057783343045.html

Watch any Bush interview. Palin does it, too.

But a dead-eyed gaze is a sign of a liar, also. Re: Dick Cheney's lizard stare.

25. My guess is he wears contact lenses
and, at his age, his eyes need more-than-normal lubrication.

When he was first elected to Congress, he wore Coke-bottle thick glasses.

So, that's the blink.

That, and he's a fucking liar.
