I hate to say this, but it's the cutest picture I've seen of McCain since the 1970s (when he was kind of hot for a short guy). He looks like a fun little monster from Sesame Street or something along those lines. It seems that he can laugh at what a joke he actually is, that's good right?

He looks like the troll that lived under the bridge, but feel free to come up with other Halloween fun to go with this picture. It's funny!

[NewArtz]

This picture says it all.

Remember just two weeks ago? I am heartened by Barack's standing at this point, but the public is so easily swayed, and they love an underdog. Got to keep working...The fat lady is warming up, but no arias til Nov 4th, please.

McCain looking Presidential for all the world to see.....WTF?

My husband says the picture reminds him of the scene in Lilo and Stitch, where Stitch builds Lilo a full scale model of New York, skyscrapers and all, and all of a sudden turns into Stitch-Godzilla, tongue all sticking out, and smashes up his creation.

Weird.

This how Bush got into office making people laugh and making people want to have a beer with him, not so funny now!! Clowns are good for one thing appearing in the circus, not running a country! Obama/ Biden 08 there's a time to laugh and this ain't it !!!

[ScooterLiddy]

Must escape... Turning back into Bush....

I'm sure every foreign head-of-state has seen this photo by now.

Sigh.

[MsCanadian]

I did see him turn the wrong way, but I didn't catch this! Is it photoshopped?

[research]

This is real. I re watched the video to check it.

Tardive dyskinesia is a variety of dyskinesia (involuntary, repetitive movements) manifesting as a side effect of long-term or high-dose use of dopamine antagonists, usually antipsychotics.

Tardive dyskinesia is characterized by repetitive, involuntary, purposeless movements. Features of the disorder may include grimacing, tongue protrusion, lip smacking, puckering and pursing of the lips, and rapid eye blinking. Rapid movements of the arms, legs, and trunk may also occur. Impaired movements of the fingers may appear as though the patient is playing an invisible guitar or piano.

Bush acts the comic every chance he gets like massaging the German Prime Ministress on camera. I do not believe the Leader of our country should portray himself as a Barnam & Bailey circus clown; I appreciate verbal wit as a sign of intellect and quick thinking but dropping your pants for a laugh is not presidential in my book of political protocol, it's a sign of childish uncouth behavior and disrespect for a sacred office.
Bush & McCain are not humorists, they are deviously dangerous for humanity.

Too bad the debate wasn't in a GONG SHOW setting...wouldn't have lasted long
