John McCain on The Daily Show
Don't forget to tune in to The Daily Show tonight to see John McCain's historic 13th appearance on the show.
Or do forget. What do I care? It's your business.
UPDATE: What I've learned from this interview so far -
- He's not sure what his Secret Service code name is, but thinks it's "Jerk."
- If he were to wear a propaganda t-shirt, it would have to be glow in the dark.
- John McCain has an excellent sense of comedic timing.
- McCain's out of context "100 years"quote was taken out of context.
- Politics is dissimilar to to bean bag.
- Dwight Schrute? WTF?
Many thanks to Sgt. Pepper Politics for live blogging McCain's appearance in the comments below. And many thanks to him for not linking to his own blog in every comment.

Jon, I am BEGGING you to stop having this guy on your show! He has a good sense of humor, you obviously respect him and like rapping with him and thus it legitimizes him to your people. In other words, people tend to overlook his far right policies and beliefs because he's personable. I actually feel that you have helped make him an acceptable candidate to some Democratic voters, and especially when you do not nail him with hard questions. Of course, no one elsein the media is, either.
But Jon, PLEEEEEEEEZE--we really really do not need this guy as our next president! Can't you hold off until after November???
That shit is hard. Much respect. I'm pissed he didn't say, "my friends." I'm making it up right now.
This blog is your blog and is not my blog. You've pumped it befofe and honestly, this place is awesome. My joint is for warped Beatles fains and isn't a pimple on this blog's ass. Good tunes though.
In fairness, McCain did well although he ducked the good questions perfectly with great comedic timing I thought. Getting out of the chair was funny, he had a good rapport with Jon, but, because of his constant flip-flop-flip-flopping on the issues, I can't vote for him.
The Clinton argument by Stewart actually (shhhh....) woiuld work and be best for the country too. Along with Obama somewhere in the Cabinet. If we harken back to the Revolutionary War era, people from all parties united. Somewhere I've written about the prospect of all 3 serving in the Executive Branch and working together.
Utopia. It's been done before. If Obama wins, I'd love to see McCain as Secretary of Defense, Clinton as VEEP and force-feed Congress unification. Any combo really. Poly Sci 101: Enemies unite against common enemies, like: Terrorism, environmental issues, the economy; shit that matters.
Amazing how terrified the looney left is of their next president.....
What is that big lump on his face?
How dare he say that Hamas endorsed Obama. I liked John's comment "so now you trust Hamas?" I think it went over Grampy McSame's head.
So McCain showed how much he disdains the left, aka intelligent, with his "never" comment about Clinton. Is compromise and working together that scary?
Jon missed his chance to nail McCain when he mentioned winning in Iraq. Jon should have asked him to define winning. I hope this is the last appearance of McCain on this show. We don't need to be making this guy more likable by not asking him hard questions.
Why let McCain get away with saying he will run a respectful campaign calling Obama the Hamas candidate? He might as well call him B. Hussein Obama like Coulter...
11:20 - McCain playing it cool to be fair. Except the bullshit to follow.
11:21 - Mcain leaves chair on question to repudiate Bush when Jon asks him about Wright issue. McCain dodges answer and talks about the times he was a flower child and fucked a tree.
11:23: Jon asks for the dirt and fucking McCain hasn't said "My Friends" yet and again dodges question.
11:24: McCain blows joke on Hamaas and linking him to Obama.
11:26 - McCain admits to love tryst with Hillary Clinton.
11:11 - McCain enters. With shitty joke. But, he's in the Lion's Den.
11:12 - McCain honest. Calls himself a "jerk."
11:13 - McCain - Just like Lincoln.
11:15 - "Darkness before Black" like he's not playing the race card.
11:15 - T-Shirt that "Glows in the dark." C'mon. He doesn't like black people.
11:07 - No squeaker joke yet. Waiting for toilet humour.
