McCain Calls Western PA "Most" Patriotic, God-Loving Part Of The Country (VIDEO)
McCain Calls Western PA "Most" Patriotic, God-Loving Part Of The Country

21 Oct 2008 07:59 pm
Just like dark energy in the universe, one could very well assume that patriotism is evenly distributed across the country. Certainly, some parts of the country are more God-loving' than others, but that's simply a factor of the distribution of atheists and agnostics. And, actually, given the density of cities, there are probably more God-loving people in urban areas than there are outside urban areas.

This just isn't so, according to Sen. John McCain. One area of the country wins the God-loving, patriotic contest.

Here's what he said tonight.

Referring to Rep. Jack Murtha's remarks on the region's alleged racism, McCain said: "I think you may have noticed that Sen. Obama's supporters are saying some pretty nasty things about Western Pennsylvania lately."

McCain: "And you know, I couldn't agree with them more."

"I couldn't disagree with you."

"I couldn't agree with you more than the fact that Western Pennsylvania is the most patriotic, most God-loving, most patriotic part of America... this is a great part of the country."

Forget about McCain blowing the line...

MOST patriotic?

MOST God-loving?

6. And the *least* American part of the country would naturally be Philadelphia, eh?
That's what it's going to come down to. East Pennsylvania vs. West Pennsylvania, with the entire future of the country on the line.

It shouldn't even be close.

8. He Knows Squat About Western PA
Edited on Tue Oct-21-08 08:00 PM by paregdem
I thought I detected a stench in the air when I left work today. McCain was either already in the area or he was on his way in and the wind was blowing south toward downtown Pittsburgh. Gawd, please speed up the time and get us to election day already. Having this blow-hard in PA is just too much of a bad thing.
