Republican presidential candidate John McCain has been caught on videotape joking about bombing Iran. McCain made the joke in response to a question from a voter in South Carolina. When asked about whether the U.S. should attack Iran, McCain began singing Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran to the tune of the old Beach Boys song "Barbara Ann." McCain has defended his joke. When reporters asked him last night if the joke was insensitive, McCain said: "Insensitive to what? The Iranians?" He went on to say "My response is, lighten up and get a life."

~I use to feel sorry for the man because of the torture he suffered while a POW. Now I feel sorry for such a toadie suck-up he's turned out to be. He could've been the moral voice, the GOP's statesman for life.
He might get their nomination for president, but I don't think they've yet figured out how to steal votes on the scale his election would require.
(Giulini is too slick of an old-school gangster for the rubes.)
Maybe a pre-election bombing of Iran would insure a GOP win?
