McCain article in Rolling Stone

[Tarheel Tink]

The article is called Make Believe Maverick and is an interesting read. It is dated 10/16/08 so I think it may only be online still?
I had read about 9/10th of all of it before between his books and interviews but having it all in 1 article it was pretty powerful.

Am I the only one who hates it when people tell me to discuss a subject like they're a moderator of a debate? Not that I'm not interested in politics or the article about McCain, but it really turns me off to be given an order like that.

The moon is made of green cheese and will be falling to earth in the next four years. Discuss.

Ugh.

I read it and it. My response was WOW, please don't put this man in charge of my country.

An order?

I'm surprised 9/10th of this article was available via his books and interviews because it was scathing.

Any man who would call his wife the "C" word in public loses my respect. Period. Add that to a volatile temper since childhood, "hound-dogging" around while married, etc.

No thanks.

I'm really sorry that you were turned off; it is a regional expression around here and not meant as an order by any means. I offer my apologies and will think twice about my wording because I didn't mean it that way at all. Sorry!

You take orders from strangers in a Disney forum? Wow. Simon says...

There was nothing wrong with your wording. I think most of us knew what you meant.

No. I'm turned off by strangers on a Disney forum giving me orders. Or talking like I'm in 5th grade and the teacher has set an assignment.

Thanks for the apology, Tink. I think I was just a little bit crabby this morning.

Speaking of McCain, for anyone who's interested here's an interesting 13 minute movie about his participation in the S&L scandal of 1990. The similarities between the Keating accounting practices and the current practices (that McCain supports) is striking.
