Joe McCain Calls 911 To Complain About Traffic(ROFL!)
Alexandria (web|news) - We have the tape of a 911 call made by John McCain's brother earlier this week.

He called the police emergency line because he was angry he was stuck in traffic.

The 911 call came into the City of Alexandria on Oct. 21st That's creating some buzz because it appears to come from Joe McCain, John McCain's brother.

Operator: 911 state your emergency

Caller: It's not an emergency but do you know why on one side at the damn drawbridge of 95traffic is stopped for 15 minutes and yet traffic's coming the other way?

Operator: Sir, are you calling 911 to complain about traffic?(pause)

Caller: "(Expletive) you."(caller hangs up)

The complaint call about traffic on the Wilson Bridge, outrageous enough that the 911 operator called back. The voicemail on the other end, appears to belong to Joe McCain, brother of presidential candidate, John McCain.

"Hi this is Joe McCain I can't take this message now because I'm involved in a very (inaudible) important political project... I hope on Nov. 4th we have elected John."

"I think it's horrible I can't believe somebody would tie up valuable resources to complain about traffic," said District resident Nancy Case.

" It seems stupid, my name can be tagged to this, why would I hose my brother, why would I do it," said District resident Rob Case.

But that wasn't all. McCain then called 911 again, to complain about the message the operator just left him, warning him such use of 911 is criminal.

Joe McCain: Somebody gave me this riot act about the violation of police.

Operator: Did you just call 911 in reference to this?

Joe: Yeah.

Operator: 911 is to be used for emergencies only not just because you're sitting in traffic.


"The future president, possible president whatever, possible president, can't control what someone does but this gentleman should be fined or something should happen to him," said tourist Suzanna Rey.

The McCain campaign is not ready to comment just yet on this issue.

We also tried reaching Joe McCain but were unable to reach him.

1. What an asswipe
Edited on Thu Oct-23-08 04:59 PM by Feeney2
A while back someone in a fast food restaurant called 911 twice to complain about the place putting mayo in sandwich when he asked for none. The media ridiculed him all day. I wonder if this will happen to McCain's bro.

19. This reminds me of the reports of John Mccain's temper tantrum
at a craps table. He, too, was full of himself, shouting, "Do you know who I am!"

3. Yup, in commie NoVA, 911 is only for emergencies. And we NoVa commies know
that WTOP radio gives the latest traffic reports every 8 minutes.

4. The McCain boys seem to have a sense of privilege.
Things are owed to them.
Society owes them for their suffering.

5. 3-digit dialing for the privileged
If you're privileged enough, you can just consider 911 your 3-digit dialing plan and research service.

The arrogance on display was fairly breathtaking. He actually called 911 back to complain about the message that they left on his phone warning him not to call 911 for frivolous purposes. Narcissistic bastard.

11. This family was raised to believe the world was there to serve them.
When someone is given everything they want, they tend to get upset when things outside their control don't go as they planned and when that happens they tend to act out.

Spoiled rotten asswipes, the lot of them.

Typical spoiled aristocratic brat, even at his age.
