Please desist from attacking McCain because of his age.
Posted by leftofthedial on Wed Mar-05-08 03:06 PM

There are innumerable reasons to criticize him, but his age isn't one of them.

Agism is every bit as despicable as racism or sexism.

Calling McCain "Gramps" is akin to calling Obama "Sambo" or calling Clinton "Sugartits."

Stick to legitimate issues and it will better serve the Democratic cause

WHO THE HELL IS GOING AROUND CALLING CLINTON "SUGARTITS"?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Oh my.

I went over to see that bonfire, and it wasn't quite what I expected.

But it is a pretty violent, nasty, Hate-filled one.

By the way, one of the primitives gave franksolich an idea--how about Jeb Bush as John McCain's running mate?

I'm fine with it.

Another 4 years of a Bush - their reactions would be priceless!  :-)

I wish I could have copied-and-pasted some of the comments of the primitives at this bonfire, but there's lots of them, and they're all one- and two-liners, a lot of trouble to copy-and-paste.

The bonfire's well worth observing over on Skins's island; there's some disagreements among the primitives.

I went over and read some after your post - it's so entertaining to watch them devour each other.  :-)

I always wondered about the caloric content of the average primitive.

Whatever it is, it's bound to make them fat, devouring each other.

Never thought about the highest percentage of voters/age group would get pissed off about that and vote McCain.  Secret weapon(s).
