Did John McCain really talk about hair implants...
...in the context of his national health care plan? I thought I heard him make
some really awful joke about this.

No one has mentioned this and i wanted to make sure that I
wasn't hallucinating.

Ok, thanks.

2. Maybe it was a jab at Biden?
Another assholish move if it was.

4. Thats not the best part
The best part was that was part of his rant against cadillac healthcare plans. LOL. What planet is he on? The majority of people are lucky not to be dropped if they get cancer.

5. Yes, you heard correctly
If memory serves, he referred to 'Cadillac plans' that covered procedures such as hair implants. He said, 'I might need one of them myself.'

Response from the audience:

9. And did you see the voters' approval sink IMMEDIATELY?
I watched the debate on CNN to see the graph, and man...that "joke" went over like a lead balloon.

People are dying of illness, and McSame jokes about his hair.
