Slog - Comments on It's Raining McCain http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/03/its_raining_mccain This is so... gay. I don't know what hurt the most. The, er, "singing," the floating head of John McCain, or the inexcusable appropriation of an early gay disco anthem in the service an anti-gay GOP candidate. Via Sullivan....

Hmmmmmmm! Here's a bit of what Dan wrote when he was calling for WAR ON IRAQ!

"The War on Iraq will make it clear to our friends and enemies in the Middle East (and elsewhere) that we mean business: Free your people, reform your societies, liberalize, and democratize... or we're going to come over there, remove you from power, free your people, and reform your societies for ourselves."

This version is worse than the rendition by the local Seattle gay boy chorus in the spring of '07.

I don't see how John McCain, with that kind of talent lined up behind him, can possibly be stopped.

They're sure to be invited to the GOP convention, to perform at the podium during prime time.

I've read in an article somewhere that the organ player on the karaoke tape used has already called McCain headquarters demanding they not use that rendition, since the organ player remains a Huckabee supporter.

Were those volunteers, or paid model/singers? Because I think if they were paid model/singers, that has to be included as a campaign donation.

Okay I'll stop now.

I recommend the episode where Bartlett tells his GOP Challenger "And if you are wondering it was at 'Gee, crime I just don't know' is the point I decided to kick your ass"

McCain is Govenor Richie
Obama is Bartlet

Uh, Dan -- what junior high school kid taught you to say that? This isn't "gay" in any of the accepted senses. It's not "gay" and it's not lame. This is just plain fucking embarrassing.
