If you were John McCain ...

... how would you use your experience as a POW to excuse yourself from this bailout mess?

This is not a poll; it's a free-for all!

1. Not even his POW story can get him out of this.

2. That's not how he plays it!

He always uses it and his fellow GOP Party operatives make the excuses for him as the GOP-controlled media ignore how stupid it makes him look.

9. Sure it can! "My friends, you know my record in your service.

George Bush has served even longer. He has tortured you just as I suffered torture. Please let me serve you again and end George Bush's pain."

lol

(It doesn't actually have to make sense!)

3. "My friends, for 5 1/2 years I didn't *HAVE* an economy....

and there was no one to bail me out."

Tomorrow, he'll flip it to appear to be on both sides of the issue.

5. LOL! Too funny! n/t

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

4. I'd tie myself up and lock myself in a dark room

6. When I was in that Moscow prisoner cell with John Ellway,

He told me that butterflies would give me the strength to turn cupcakes into gold. That's why I'm asking for your vote today.

7. He's a f#cking non sequitur in the first place. How does a maverick lead, anyway?!

"Nancy Pelosi hurt House Republican feelings today like my captors hurt my feelings long ago. Please join me, my friends, in bringing your Republican representatives home where they belong."

:silly:

10. I think I would defer to Sarah who might say something like "That

strategy that has worked in Iraq that the dealings with Freddie and Fannie that will be our top priority is to defend the American people. So at the end of the day when the American people look to the state of Alaska to see whether Putin has reared his head in the setting sun then we will know that we must shore up the economy and then I'll get right back to ya because that's from where we are sending those out. From. Also.”
