Mccain Golf

John McCain has made it clear that he wants voters to think of him as a Straight Talky McMaverick who's never been shy to stand apart from the failed policies of President Bush. Unfortunately, McCain has always struggled to come up with examples where the difference between the two men can be discerned. So far we have 1) was slightly more into the terrible idea known as the "Surge," and 2) is a little bit more environmentalish in that he likes the environment and is sorry that he's got no real effective ideas to help the environment other than to keep telling the environment that he really, really loves it, like the way hippies used to tell people to talk to flowers so that they'd grow faster.

But, to that list of two differences between Bush and McCain, we are pleased to add a third! Remember how Bush suffered a bunch of injuries and had to stop playing golf so he lied and told people that he stopped playing golf "for the troops?" Well, McCain isn't having any of that! If you are lucky enough to not have to fight in any of McCain's endless wars, the least you can do is show McCain a little gratitude by golfing with some McCain-branded golf gear!

And how important is it to McCain that you lucky duffers golf your asses off? Take a look at his website, where "Golf Gear" is raised to the same level as "strategy," "general election", and "decision center." The terrible golf gear includes a bag and a towel and three balls and six tees and a divot tool and it all costs $50. Surely you can put off servicing that subprime mortgage another month to stimulate McCain's economy!

It's the perfect gift for father's day, especially if you have a keen, white-hot hatred for your father.

Ahh. Thanks, Jason. No giving up golf to support the troops with our Maverick, John McTiger. Well. Maybe he's given up polo instead. Or yachting, perhaps. Or one of his nine residences.

I LOVE this Golf Gear link. It's this lame set of stuff, I guess it all relates to golf. And then you click through the GET THE GEAR link and...no description! I've bought Obama bumperstickers for 3 bucks that had more to say about themselves than this completely misplaced elitist Golf Gear. And you're now on a completely different site in the same window with no back button to the home page. You're stuck in JohnMcCainStore.com golf hell!

While you're there, you might consider making good use of your time by reviewing the Golf Gear. Currently it has five stars from the Average Customer Reviewer. I wonder if that rating is manipulated by the McCain Web Golf Gear Gods or if it's completely user-driven? Golf Gear Reviews, anyone?

The Eisenhower years were characterized as "Eight years of golfing and goofing." Little did we know then how wide the range of goofing could be.

That Logo should read: Show your support for John McCain to "stay the course"!

This guy has nerve! Bet the troops don't even vote for him!

I herby declare anyone who uses politically branded golf gear, a giant a***hole. I don't care which party or candidate you support by purchasing or brandishing that gear - NOT ADVISED.

For some reason, every time I look at this headline I see the word "wind" immediately after the word "breaks"!

Funny tricks your eyes can play on you!
