John McCain on The Daily Show This Wednesday

POSTED BY: TheInDecider

This just in!

John McCain will make his thirteenth -- thirteenth! -- appearance on The Daily Show this Wednesday, May 7. That's more Daily Show appearances than any other guest in the history of ever!

What is the deal with John McCain and Jon Stewart. Why don't they just get married and have a politically confused baby already? Huh?

Obviously, we'll have clips from the show up here first thing Thursday morning. Until then, here's a clip of McCain from his last appearance back in August...


 

What do you think Jon should ask the man who just might become the oldest white Christian man ever elected president?

  2. How good do Howard Deans' tears feel on your balls?

    (Hey, have you all forgotten that this is a comedy show? So, Lighten Up, Francis.)

  3. A couple more questions I would like to see answered by all of the candidates:

    * Would you ban political appointees from holding top scientific jobs and administrative jobs at critical agencies including the FDA, NIH, FAA, FEMA, NASA, and the National Weather Service?

    * Would you eliminate separate intelligence agencies put into operation by the previous administration and move their operations under the responsibility of the CIA and FBI?

    * Would you reject any leniency or pardon or payments by the government to cover fines incurred by private corporations involved in breaking the law at the request of the previous administration?

    * Half of the lawsuits before Federal judges involve the Pentagon as one of the parties. Doesn't it make sense to
    quit having one government agency tie up the court system and free up enough judges to clean up the mortgage mess? Getting the Pentagon out of court and giving judges the power to reset and resolve mortgage issues could solve a lot of problems for everybody.

    * Would you fully fund veteran rehabilitation, schooling, relocations, and the rebuilding of equipment lost to state National Guard units in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

    There is really too much serious sh*t going on to be farting around with the usual nonsense, IMHO.

  4. Good question, Susan.

    "6) Would you end the war to balance the budget?"

    I would also add a "Can you end the war to balance the budget?" and a When.

  6. Please ask McCain how he intends to pay for his proposals. Everything I've heard is either a tax cut, tax rebate or tax incentive. How does he intend to find the money for his programs and address the budget deficit.

    thanks

  8. The same questions I'd like to see the other candidates answer:

    1) Will you agree to never pardon George W. Bush or Dick Chaney for any crimes they may have committed while in office?

    2) Would you ban from advising your campaign and from serving in your government any individuals involved in warrantless wiretapping, secret imprisonments, torture, other violations of the Geneva Convention, or who have accepted money from any foreign government to influence U.S. policy.

    3) Why is Robert Kagan, one of the chief neocons who planned the Iraq war, serving as an advisor to your campaign?

    4) What kind of cars to you own and what are their mileage ratings.

    5) Would you balance the budget in five years to restore health to the economy?

    6) Would you end the war to balance the budget?

    7) Would you commit to spending an equal amount on alternative fuel development as is spent putting oil into the strategic reserves each year?

    8) Would you issue executive order stopping warrantless wiretaps and closing Guantanamo Bay within 30 days of taking office?

    9) Would you double training resources for nurses, physicians, pharmacists, and other medical professionals ahead of the retirement of the baby boom?

    10) Would you agree to release all records from your presidency within 10 years of leaving office.

  9. Do you think President Bush's performance over the past seven years has earned him the right to name his successor?

  10. This is for Jon Stewart:

    Jon, I think it would be great if your writers sort of wrote a skit that included John McCain as a combination of two of Tim Conway's old characters on the Carol Burnett show. Don't you think he would be great as the shuffeling old man or Mr. Tudball that Tim portrayed in a lot of the skits? Go back and look at the skits of the old man and just change the face to John McCain. Or he woud be great as Arte Johnson's old man character on Laugh-In (the one that was always after Ruth Buzzi). Just a thought but I think it would be funny as hell. Watch the way they walk, then watch John McCain walk onto a stage.
