McCain Gets "Pompous Son Of A Bitch" Endorsement

RightWingWatch:

Earlier this year, right-wing luminary Paul Weyrich announced that, if John McCain secured the Republican presidential nomination, he'd be voting for a third party candidate. ...

Weyrich told National Journal earlier this year that he questioned whether McCain had the temperament to be commander in chief because he was too hot-headed.

McCain has been equally scathing. "Weyrich possesses the attributes of a Dickensian villain," he wrote in his 2002 book, Worth the Fighting For. "Corpulent and dyspeptic, his mouth set in a perpetual sneer as if life in general were an unpleasant experience, he is the embodiment of the caricature often used to unfairly malign all religious conservatives." McCain added: "I like to think I know a pompous, self-serving son of a bitch when I see one."

But, of course, like just about every other right-wing leader who once declared McCain utterly unacceptable, Weyrich has changed his tune.

Wow...I've lost count at how many "Pompous Sons Of Bitches" are now endorsing McCain.

McCain sold his soul to the devil in 2000 after losing the Repub nomination because of the Rove tactics. He decided to adopt those tactics and lie in order to achieve his goal. He will do anything to become president!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I swear to God that headline is worthy of The Onion.

McCain added: "I like to think I know a pompous, self-serving son of a bitch when I see one."

THIS IS A TRUE STATEMENT BY McCAIN !!!!!! He has so few !

He actually does have many MIRRORS in all of his 10 homes.


Now if he can remember exactly what the Commerce Committee does and stop lieing about his knownledge of the U.S. Ecomony.

Has McCain hugged Paul Weyrich yet?

I fully support John McCain and Sarah Palin in their fight to clean up Washington.

God bless America!

John McCain is a RECKLESS OPPORTUNIST who is OUT OF TOUCH with the REAL NEEDS of the American people. The fact that he would GROVEL to get the endorsement of a man he previously (and rightly) called "a pompous son of a bitch" is not surprising. Senator McCain has already proven that he would rather LOSE HIS HONOR than LOSE THIS ELECTION.

Country first? (I don't think so)

Where is the honor in LYING:

May I proudly say that I never have a hope I never will again see this S.O.B.s name. And the "corpulent and dyspeptic" line is great.

Can this seriously be any funnier ??? It is the perfect example of how the party leaders and top contributors actually drive the party politic and agenda.

The only reason McSAME/P'h'ALIN are the candidates in 2008 is because they are the only ones who have any chance what-so-ever of winning in a general election. It is a scam, it is a GOP ploy, it is a gimmick, it is all done with smoke and mirrors and the puppet masters will be calling the shots from behind the curtain ...

Sounds to me like he is McS.h.a.m.e's soul-mate...LOL!

What's to say? Who cares.

I personally CAN'T watch Joe any longer. I catch up on the news from the show here at HuffPO. I saw the clip. Mika stayed calm but I hope the rest of the world saw it.

A lot of Repubs hate McCain's guts and they won't mind very much if he loses. In fact, considering the overwhelming obstacles facing the next President, I think the elite Repubs are gonna try to sabotage McCain and leave the mess in Obama's hands. Two birds with one stone.

[mizonglohong]

All I can say is i guess they are made for each other...........

VOTE FOR HUMANITY!!! VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!!

[LibRS]

if you like humanity u better vote for mccain over the cumminity organizer.

[soithoni]

And ... what? Don't you like humanity? That's kind of an elitist view to have, don'tcha think?

[thepoliticalcat]

Johnny Mac hates humanity. You'd have to be insane or stupid to vote for him. Unless you're a multimillionaire looking for tax cuts, of course.

[smbs]

WOW, you are some nasty jerk!!!!
