16. Excellent.
Practically choked on my coffee... I'm still laughing. The photo just begs for a "caption me" contest. You already won, though.

13. Yeah, the exact quote was...
Edited on Wed Oct-15-08 11:56 PM by pokerfan
"Just again, the example of the eloquence of Sen. Obama. He's (for the) health for the mother. You know, that's been stretched by the pro-abortion movement in America to mean almost anything. That's the extreme pro-abortion position, quote, "health."

And that's where he mimes the air-quotes.

19. McCain's health plan
Wellness programs, getting kids away from the TV, and taxing us on our benefits.

McCain: That's the extreme pro-abortion position, quote, "health."

Health is an extreme position?
