McCain’s ‘exclusive’ stroll footage.

“John McCain has given exclusive rights to the video of his trip to CBS’s 60 Minutes Slogger has learned. Although the Presidential candidate has provided interviews and press conferences while in Baghdad, McCain is apparently saving the good stuff for this Sunday.”

    Baghdad John sez: There are no insurgent infidels in Baghdad! Never!

    McCain’s a lying thug.


  3. veritas says:

    McCain’s obviously taken lessons from Dumbya’s book of “how to deceive the people via photo ops”, hasn’t he? hahahahaha! What a ditz!


  4. Pete Bogs says:

    can’t wait for the DVD! the extras show hours of additional footage… of McCain strapping on body armor so he doesn’t get shot to pieces…

    – - Hmmm, I sense a commercial tie-in here. Yes, a new Dr. Scholl’s “I’m gellin’ ” commercial.

    I hope they don’t edit out Paris Hilton on her trike in a bikini….

    What’s the “good stuff”? Maybe we’ll get to see those bargain rugs Lindsay Graham bought.


  9. Tom says:

    Hate to disappoint you. Paris won’t be in the footage; however, I understand that the big surprise is that the drunken slut Bu$h twins accompanied McLame and can be seen doing their best imitation of “Girls Gone Wild” in the background.

    Ret Gen Jack Keane on TOTN spinning AEI lies. He won’t committ himself to any set Friedman Units.


  11. Other Tom says:

    Why does McCain have control over the video footage? Wasn’t his whole trip paid for by American taxpayers? Wasn’t the sizable security contingent entirely paid for by tax dollars? Which raises another good question: how much did McCain’s Stroll Through Neverland cost? Were any campaign aides on this trip with him? Did his political campaign reimburse the government for expenditures?

    Take It Away, John McPAIN:

    “While strolling through Iraq one day
    In the merry, merry month of May(Oops, One Month Early!),
    I was taken by surprise
    By a pair of roguish INSURGENT eyes
    So I CLUTCHED MY BULLETPROOF VEST
    AND RAN PELL-MELL WITH THE REST
    OF THE HUNDRED TROOPS
    ARMED TO THE TEETH–WHOOPS!
    I ALMOST SLIPPED ON THE BIT
    OF NEARLY LIQUID SHIT
    THAT LEAKED OUTTA ME
    TEE HEE HEE HEE HEE!!!!
    While strolling through Iraq ONE DAY!!!!!”

    If it is so important to McCain that the American people see the real picture, why is he not releasing the footage to everyone? And why wait until Sunday? Show it now, show it everywhere. Post it on your website!

    #13…
    It takes time to digitally edit the footage, removing the flak jacket and all those troops and helicopters………….


  15. devin says:

    the bushman obviously believes he still has power…but he’s the believer, he’s the decider-man.


  16. ForTruth says:

    We need to call it “troll footage” cuz thats all its good for.


  17. Dick (no, not that one) says:

    Whaaa? So who filmed the footage? How did McCain get exclusive control? Who paid for all the troops, the helicopters, and air support so Mccain could wander aimlessly and Grahm could buy some rugs? Weren’t any news organizations allowed to film? If they weren’t, who censored them? Sure would be nice if we had a press to ask these questions.
