2008 John McCain Keeps Calling Me
posted by on February 19 at 13:42 PM
I finally got my first cell phone three months ago, and I’m maybe the only person in the greater Seattle area with a landline. This is the only rational explanation I have for why John McCain keeps calling me at my house. In the last week, I’ve gotten robocalls from John McCain, Dave Reichert (telling me to vote for his “good friend John McCain”), Syndee (or however she spells it) McCain (telling me that I should vote for her husband John McCain and, by the way, not that it matters, but their brown babies are adopted and not illegitimate), and a poll (sponsored by John McCain) asking who I’m going to vote for in the Republican Primary.
Here’s what I’ve learned: I hate John McCain’s whimpering voice. He sounds pathetic, like I’ve hurt his feelings and he’s about to cry. His voice begs for pity, and that’s why it’s so silly to hear him talking about strong borders and strong right-wing judges and killing islammyfascists with our strong military cock and strong strong strong: He’s got the timbre and cadence of a grandpa who’s wet himself and is asking for help with the cleanup.
I’m so glad that the primaries are finally over today, so that I can go home and delete the nine more messages I’m sure I’ll have on my answering machine and know that that will be the end of it. The one good thing that I’ve gotten out of McCain’s hot and heavy phone crush on me? In the poll, I announced that I was for Huckabee and that my main reason for voting for him is Iraq. That ought to fuck with his pollsters for a little while.
I agree, McCain does wimper. Cann't believe they put up with his bitch like wimpering at the Hanoi Hilton!
I watched part of McCain's interview on Larry King, and I kept thinking he looked like he needed a nap.
Are you voting in the Republican Primary? I think being a Republican is a pretty serious conflict-of-interest with working at the Stranger...
Oh, look. They're playing gay chicken.
they seriously clarified the brown baby origins? Un-fucking-believable!
How unappealing.
Just head on over to Betty's house - she'll make you forget all about McCain.
Dear God I hope this doesn't become a Hillary vs. McCain race. It would be like you (out of guilt) invited your lonely, humorless, pneumatic drill voiced Office Manager ("I will get back to you with a solution! It's not casual friday yet!")to Thanksgiving Dinner with your muttering, mumbling, Scotch-drinking grandfather ("I was in 'nam goddammit!") and then let them go at it over the meal.
Remember, McCain is all about staying in Iraq for 100 years.
Or 10,000 years if need be.
But never about asking why America's Middle Class should have to pay for a foreign war of adventure that has nothing to do with al-Qaeda or anything related to defending America itself.
God, what a loon he's become ...
An automated Ron Paul called my parents' place while I was house sitting last weekend. I actually listened to the whole message just cuz I thought it was hilarious. I think they recorded the damn thing like 6 months ago. LOL.
I've gotten a ton of those calls too. I'm glad the Primary's here.
Is Dubya's armpit bleeding in this picture?
Thank god! I thought I was the only one getting those annoying robo-calls on my voicemail!
Bill Maher is available IN VIDEO FOR FREE on iTunes!!!
This is a big deal since until this week you could just get the audio of Real Time but now you can get the video for free!!! TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
I know I am the only person who cares but needed to share since not all of us have HBO.
In early 2001, I answered a Republican poll meant for my father. I told them that I disapproved of Bush's performance thus far (after about four months in office). The shock in the pollster's voice was quite adorable.
@6....
ROFL
I voted in the 2000 Republican primary, hoping to throw them off. Now I pay for eternity by getting their damn robo-calls every election cycle. On the other hand, I also get to know what the Republicans are up to on local levels, so it's not so awful. I just hang up or hit delete when I hear the robot.
My friends...my friends...
PLEASE STOP SAYING THAT!
not only the voice but that tight/stiff-fisted arm pump (riiiggghhhttt)he has going on at his side, like he's trying to take off or he's going to blow up or something.
Dude is in his 70s. It's entirely possible that he *has* wet himself.
I feel the SAME way about McCain's voice. It seems like something that should be trivial, but I'm a firm believer that things like that cause people to form their opinions about a person....wait, see? that's already happened!
