Younger than Grampa McCain?


Crooks and Liars:

Polls indicate
the American people are concerned about electing a 72-year-old President. So what’s younger than McCain? Many things indeed. Here’s proof from Younger than McCain dot com:

John McCain comes from another time, an old war-horse stuck in the past with an old-world view of things. Just for fun and to put into some perspective just how old McCain is, we started compiling lists of things that to most Americans seem really old, but they’re still younger than good ‘ole John McCain.

On a side note:


He's also older than the photocopier (37), the ballpoint pen (38), teflon (38), aerosol spray cans (41), the Slinky (43), Silly Putty (43), the atomic bomb (45), The Microwave (46), The Transistor Radio (47), The Jukebox (48), Super Glue (51) Video Tape (51) Diet Soda (52), BARBIE (59) Hand held Calculators (67) and much more!

Wow that is so interesting. Some of that stuff was old when I was young. I guess on never really realizes just how far we're come. But if McCain was smart he would use age to his advantage. Now I don't know what he's going to do with the memory lost problem. I just pray he doesn't call his wife that bad name again in public.

Notice how Teflon John seems to be using Executive Privilege by not releasing his Medical Records or his wife's income tax. Watching Teflon John he's not looking to good and might lease us at anytime. No wonder Mitt said he would be John's VP he would end up President in last then a week.
