Walter Reed Middle School '92 alum here, tremendously happy that my old school has delivered a mild zinger to John McCain.

Ye gods! McCain can't even get a prop photo right! He really hasn't come far from the 894th out of 899, skating by on his family credentials.

It's about time. I've started referring to McCain as "the Sacred POW" every time in other online forums.

A lot like Cindy McCain does now, I expect. I don't care if that's nasty, I won't take it back.

The proper response, of course, is to put up a billboard depicting a sea of flag-draped coffins with the plea, "Please don't vote for a Republican."

Thank you, Representative Miller. I was born in the Philippines and was intimately familiar with the havoc wrought upon my country by another US-supported dictator, Ferdinand Marcos. I watched while Marcos election fraud tore the country apart and got my father killed, and President Reagan (I will always piss on his memory) concluded that both sides must be cheating, despite the fact that a Senatorial delegation led by Richard Lugar had accused Marcos and only Marcos. This "shining city on a hill" sometimes forgets that shit flows downhill.

Your ideological purity is inspiring. Can I touch you? I like to touch pure and fragile things before they wither and implode upon exposure to air.

Deathbed repentance makes for a nice story, but Atwater's got a few milennia of sucking barbed devil-cock in Hell to atone for his sins.

I'm not going to get into the weeds of what kind of lessons one can or should draw from historical analogy, but I'd just like to say that Mr. Kaplan gets it wrong when he expresses surprise that Andrei could write as well as he does, being a political operative. I went to high school with Andrei and knew him to be, first and foremost, a scholar and a gentleman. :)

Happy trails and keep fighting the good fight, Paul. You've done wonderful and important things here at TPM.

Ah, directly cutting and pasting from your little troll army talking point list. How charming. Trolls these days, they aren't willing to put in the sweat and hard work like trolls from back in the day.
