John McCain Plays Old with Conan O'Brien

Senator John McCain visited Late Night with Conan O'Brien yesterday and listened to O'Brien's complaints that the only angle he (and other late night hosts) could really use with McCain is that he's old. So McCain pretended to fall asleep. [Clip below, too.]

O'Brien also broached the subject of McCain's potential running mate. Boston.com noted that O'Brien referred to what McCain had previously said about the #2 job, "I think you said, 'The vice-president only has two duties. One is to break a tie vote in the United States Senate. The other duty is to inquire daily as to the health of the President.'" And McCain replied to that with, "And that job will be very, very important with my Vice President!" That's still an age joke, no?

That's the worst "falling asleep" take I've seen in ... well, maybe all my life. Looked more like he was having a stroke. Don't give up your day job, McCain. Dammit, he's a senator, not an actor!

 

Did he pick on any children this time? C*nt.

 

“Children today are tyrants. They contradict their parents, gobble their food, and tyrannize their teachers.” Socrates

 

This old thing is getting really...old.

 

#2: Janet Reno is Chelsea Clinton's father? I don't get it.

 

Baby Boomer vs Baby Bomber

 

Oh look the senile old man think its cute to play a ...... senile old man.

How original.

 

I would love it if McCain's only fault was his age, but this shit is not funny. McCain is a stupid warmonger and must not be elected. He could be the only president to do more damage to this country than G.W. Bush. After electing Bush the 2nd time, I believe that the US is completely capable of falling for the same shit again with this loser.
