OLD MAN SHOUTS AT CLOUDS

John McCain's Conspiracy Theory!

We have all had the old grandfather or old uncle that is permanently safety wired in the pissed off position.   My on wife makes it a point, when I start grumbling and grouching about how things are, to remind me that I am one step away from ‘Old Man Shouting at Clouds.’    

The personification of this axiom is John McCain.   McCain is a sour bitter old man who did not get his way four years ago and can’t move pass his disappointment.  

We all know that McCain suffered as a POW in Vietnam…as did many Americans.   His military service is to be praised.   But, though he is identified by his military service, he has not been a friend to the troops.   He has continually voted against increased funds for the VA and also against education and other benefits for veterans.  

We must remember that McCain is the son of an Admiral, who was the son of an Admiral, and that he is, and always has been, as out of touch with the military enlisted man as Mitt Romney is with food stamp recipients.

John McCain is not particularly bright (though, by the standards we set for our Senators and Congresspersons he is probably considered above average.)  He graduated at the bottom of his class in Annapolis; and we saw his ignorance demonstrated when he toured Iraq with Joe Lieberman during his run for President, and Lieberman had to correct him – that in fact Iraq and Afghanistan does not share a common border. 

And now John McCain shouts at clouds in hope of creating a conspiracy theory to motivate the idiot base of the Republican Party to demonstration against the President.
