Yesterday in an interview with Phoenix’s KTVK 3TV, the local news anchor asked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) to play a quick word association game. McCain was left tongue-tied and speechless when the reporter asked him to give a one-word response to what he thinks about the controversial Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio:
HOST: Health care.
MCCAIN: Needs reform.
HOST: That’s two words. [weird laugh] Iraq.
MCCAIN: Success.
HOST: Arizona.
MCCAIN: The best.
HOST: US-Mexico Border.
McCain: Cartels.
HOST: GOP.
MCCAIN: Transition.
HOST: Sheriff Joe Arpaio:
MCCAIN: Umm…
Watch it:
Though McCain — who is up for re-election — failed to provide his own constituents with a clear answer last night, he offered CNN’s national news anchor John King a much more extensive reaction when asked about Arpaio back in February:
KING: You have had a roller-coaster relationship with this sheriff [Joe Arpaio]. He says he is just simply enforcing the law. He goes into businesses, he’s rounding up people. John Conyers, others in Congress say racial profiling. Is the sheriff in line or out of line in your view?
MCCAIN: Having been engaged in the presidential campaign, I haven’t paid as close attention. I’ve disagreed with the sheriff fundamentally about the fact that we need to have a comprehensive approach to illegal immigration.
Watch it:
Here’s some one-word responses McCain could offer next time when asked about Arpaio: dangerous, unconstitutional, racist, wasteful, stubborn, self-promoting, media-whore.
Retirement time…

July 2nd, 2009 at 8:52 pmBuckie Boy, where are you?
July 2nd, 2009 at 8:58 pmI think McCain meant to say rascist! But you know, he’s gotta get those votes – dontcha know!
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:06 pmRepublicans and especially McSame are irrlelevant.
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:10 pmIf AZ is gonna re-elect this @aahat, they deserve him. If progressive/liberals can just hold obama and the dems accountable for what they do/do not do, we will see positive change.
If repugs like mclame are successful watering down or obstructing real change in health care, military-spending, illegal wars, environmental protection, workers rights, basic equality issues, immigration, and real economic recovery that includes family supporting jobs, it is only because the dems let them.
That is why we need to hold BOTH dems and republicans accountable for their rhetoric.
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:10 pmYou are all being too hard on him – he is not talking the vast array of drugs and pharmaceuticals now that he was talking last fall – it isn’t that import of a race and he doesn’t have to be fully coherent or even awake.
His core constituency is stupid, his party is thoroughly marginalized, and most of America could not care less what he has to say.

– - Host: Sarah Palin
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:13 pmMcCain: Ummmm…
myfriends!
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:32 pmFrom the post above:
“HOST: Sheriff Joe Arpaio:
MCCAIN: Umm…”
How would McLame finish off “Umm…”?
A) Joe’s a straight up guy!
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:36 pmB) Joe’s a racist sh|t sucking peckerwood.
C) Joe’s too stupid to hold public office.
D) I’m too facist and racist and stupid to answer beyond “umm…”
E) All of the above.
HOST: That’s two words. [weird laugh] Iraq.
MCCAIN: Success.
MCCain still kissing Cheney’s a$$. What a joke.

July 2nd, 2009 at 9:55 pmHost: Honesty
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:13 pmMcCain: Ummmm…
grampy can’t remember what he had for breakfast nor when was the last time someone changed his pamper. you really think he even recalled who is Joe Arpaio?
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:14 pmIf black people didn’t vote, McCain would be president right now.
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:26 pmJust think if McCain won! Him and Sarah Palin? Dear Lord, did we ever dodge a bulliet!
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:30 pmIf Diebold and Kathlene Harris did not vote, W would have never been president.
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:31 pmJust think, a world where capitalism rules over socialism and babies arent killed everyday. A world where the president isn’t in charge of private business. A world where the president actually cares about the constitution.

July 2nd, 2009 at 10:38 pmAre you a pussy by any chance? See there is a reason I am asking…
TYR,
July 2nd, 2009 at 10:38 pmYou just described a polar opposite from what happened from 1/20/2001 through 1/19/2009.
It’s just that McSenile knows so many Joe’s, sometimes he gets confused. Perhaps he needs to come up with nicknames for them all. The big W was able to remember people through nicknames.
Oh, and if 100% of the people voted, a republican would never be elected for anything. Not even dogcatcher.

Sorry for the long post:
Essay: A Day in the Life of a True Conservative
Joe Conservative wakes up in the morning and goes to the bathroom. He flushes his toilet and brushes his teeth, mindful that each flush & brush costs him about 43 cents to his privatized water provider. His wacky, liberal neighbor keeps badgering the company to disclose how clean and safe their water is, but no one ever finds out. Just to be safe, Joe Conservative boils his drinking water.
Joe steps outside and coughs–the pollution is especially bad today, but the smokiest cars are the cheapest ones, so everyone buys ‘em. Joe Conservative checks to make sure he has enough toll money for the 3 different private roads he must drive to work. There is no public transportation, so traffic is backed up and his 10 mile commute takes an hour.
On the way, he drops his 12 year old daughter off at the clothing factory she works at. Paying for kids to go to private school until they’re 18 is a luxury, and Joe needs the extra income coming in. Times are hard and there are no social safety nets.
He gets to work 5 minutes late and misses the call for Christian prayer, and is immediately docked by his employer. He is not feeling well today, but has no health insurance, since neither his employer nor his government provide it, and paying for it himself is really expensive, since he has a precondition. He just hopes for the best.
Joe’s workday is 12 hours long, because there is no regulation over working hours, and Joe will lose his job if he complains or unionizes. Today is an especially bad day. Joe’s manager demands that he work until midnight, a 16 hour day. Joe does, knowing that he’ll lose his job if he does
not.
Finally, after midnight, Joe gets to pick up his daughter and go home. His daughter shows him the deep cut she got on the industrial sewing machine today. Joe is outraged and asks why she doesn’t have metal mesh gloves or other protection. She says the company will not provide it and she’ll have to pay for it out of her own pocket. Joe looks at the wound and decides they’ll use an over the counter disinfectant and bandages until it heals. She’ll have a scar, but getting
stitches at the emergency room is expensive.
His daughter also complains that the manager made suggestive overtures towards her. Joe counsels her to be a “good girl” and not rock the boat, or she’ll get fired and they’ll be out the income. His daughter says she can’t wait until she’s 18 so she can vote for change or go to the Iraq War.
They get home and there’s a message from his elderly father who can’t afford to pay his medical or heating bills. Joe can hear him coughing and shivering.
Joe turns on the radio and the top story is a proposal in Congress to raise the voting age to 25. A rare liberal opinionator states that it’s an attempt to keep power out of the hands of working class Americans. The conservative host immediately quashes him, calling him “a utopian idealist,” and agreeing that people aren’t mature enough to make good choices until they’re at least 25.
Joe chuckles at the wine?swilling, cheese eating liberal egghead and thinks, “Thank God I live in America where I have freedom!”

Sweetie, the war was won until your neocon boys took their eyes off the prize and decidied to go adventioneering in Iraq. If we had followed up on the initial rout of the taliban with sufficient presence to provide safety to the average Afghani, this was one place we really could have been hailed as liberators. We could have left those folks to run their own country, which I believe is our object now. Sadly, the neglect of the last six years has made that task harder. I don’t embrace the blood shed, no sane person does, but we are now trying to finish the only military task that made sense in the wake of 9/11.

Unfortunately we created a housing bubble, and a market bubble, and a commercial property bubble, and a trading bubble, while productivity in manufacturing went down. Then the whole Ponzi scheme collapsed. It was all over the news for the last couple years.

As a skeptic I would say that’s oversimplified and Obama can’t take all the credit since much of it was in the works but, the facts fit the theory. There has certainly been more participation by the forces we’ve trained.

July 2nd, 2009 at 11:49 pmThanks RC. I had guessed Pathetic too, but was leaning more to Pssy.
I often wonder how to recognize these toilet lickers in day-to day life. Tell me little GOPsby buddy, is that you screaming at the kids to stay off your lawn? Or carrying the hate signs at the Planned Parenthood offices? I need to know because I really want to pay my respects when you pass on.
Some people give flowers, some leave different……well, gifts, to the dearly departed.
July 2nd, 2009 at 11:49 pmYou keep flailing about like a virgin frat rat trying to un hook a bra on a passed out girl.

July 2nd, 2009 at 11:50 pmIs significant wealth a small town in texas?

certainly not in a tea-sipping shit hole in massachussets. what do you know about wealth? your coin bag for cleaning toilets in prison doesn’t count.

As a skeptic I would say that’s oversimplified and Obama can’t take all the credit since much of it was in the works but, the facts fit the theory.
True, but he did change the tone of the whole discussion. It’s easier to deal with allies when they sense that you respect their way of life, and do not seek to impose yours.

First off, we smoke our tea in Mass, and second of all, I’m a professional circumciser. The base salary isn’t much but the tips are fantastic.

July 2nd, 2009 at 11:55 pmWell I can see gopsby has highjacked another thread with his meaningless BS. Its time we just pass over his meaningless BS and maybe we can have a honest debate about the issues TP posts on this site.
July 2nd, 2009 at 11:55 pmI think the The Retarded GOPsby would like for everyone to believe he is wealthy, but if that were so he certainly would have purchased a clue by now, one would think. Or at least a ghost-writer to clean up his non sequitirs…
Have pleasant evening citizens.

I still expect great things from that change in image, both here and abroad, because despite our impatience there’s a substantive change too. The sheer volume of problems makes it seem like nothing is happening fast enough. Yet, I don’t think deliberation is a bad thing.

Fair enough, my apologies to the adults in the room, I felt the need to play whack a troll, my bad.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:00 amdon’t you have to get up early for that great liberal job, bob? or did you hit the retirement age of, what is it, 30 in mass?
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:00 amit’s not meaningless to bob, that dirty old man appears quite interested.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:02 amAnd a half a hundred blazing, bleeding, convulsing emergencies are not conducive to setting long term policy. There is much to be said for dealing with immediate emergencies first.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:02 amThis one is so senseless that it doesn’t matter whether one whacks it or ignores it.

wash your hands and go for another round, this time in bed.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:04 amGOPsby toilet licker,
There are better ways of getting attention. Really.
I appreciate that your Daddy did some horrible things to you when you were a kid, but you need to understand that that’s not normal behavior. That was your Dad’s fcked up psyche and you are a victim. It’s ok, little guy, really.
Break the cycle. Stop hating yourself.

Nor do I. We must all remain patient and continue to advocate for what is right. It is unfair to place the entire burden on the man we elected president, and then fuss that change is not swift enough. (Not that I’m accusing you of that). As mentioned previously in this thread, the alternative we had in the last election was indeed scary.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:09 amOk, this thread is a lost cause.
Here’s a fun cartoon for y’all to enjoy:
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:12 amI can’t do it…WE’LL DO IT LIVE!!!
We’ll I’m out of here. I sick and tired of trolls highjacking these threads, were we end up talking about nothing but meaningless BS. This is supposed to be a progressive blog about issues that matter. Instead it becomes the joke fest for some troll.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:17 amangels81,
It’s gonna be a long, troll-filled weekend at TP…I probably won’t be around much either.
*sigh*

I don’t know, Zooey.
OutstandingInAPlagueOfLocusts and I are having a nice little off topic discussion about the change in mood in U.S. foreign relations since Obama was inaugurated. With a side, side, discussion about our impatience.
The troll scat is a deterrence though.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:19 amSorry, pete. I didn’t read everything after seeing the initial troll-burst. I’ll check it out…
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:19 amchingbush, gopsby has done a very good job of highjacking the last two threads with his bullshit. The issue of both threads were forgotten and the threads became all about gopsby and his BS posts. The issue that the thread was about was forgotten, and all the time was spent on gopsby.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:22 amNo problem, Zooey. It’s nothing earth shattering. Just musing really. I don’t know if it’s even worth pouring through the troll scat.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:22 amWell done, pete & Outstanding. Thoughtful comments in the midst of all the troll shit. :-)
pete, I just did a word search on your name and didn’t read a single troll slobber. ;)
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:26 amAnd y’all are right about the trolls. I joined this blog last fall. I stay because I can discuss issues with sane folk that I must later discuss with those in my circle who disagree. Some of you are so intelligent, or such excellent writers, that I have at times stood in awe of you and felt priveledged to be the recipient of the wealth of information provided. Lately, I’ve noticed the “troll scat” seems to have decreased the number of thoughtful discussions, like the one I’ve had tonight with pete. Don’t let the trolls chase all you smart folk away, I need you!
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:26 amBut, on the off topic. I guess I’m in a medium optimistic mood.
It’s od that the American media doesn’t seem to enthused by the increased commitment of Iraqi, Afghan, and even Pakistani forces. Combat is always bad but the less we have to do with it the better. Mainly because the people we are fighting, despite their image, would rather not shoot at neighbors.
There’s some sign that one or all of those parties may be able to soon conduct arrests of the really dangerous ones. As these countries resume control, it’s just a matter of giving the right people the right list. I hope.

Oh pete, I think war is only news in the shock and awe phase. Cooperation, not such a big story.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:34 amOutstanding (and anyone else tired of troll shit), if you ever get tired of all the crap, you’re certainly welcome to stop by TheZoo. Just click on my name. :)
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:35 amOh! I’ll still whack the occasional troll, Zooey, but I’ll take the compliment tonight. Frankly, I’m just letting my “new” pet ferment his frustration. I like them to start spitting and spluttering before I twist their tails too hard.
And don’t worry, OutstandingInAPlagueOfLocusts. There are still enough good discussions to stay interesting. And some, though it’s been out of hand many times, troll presence can add vitality. Even if it’s just by exasperation.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:36 amI have an uncanny knack of checking out the zoo when all the angles have been covered. And I seem to check it out about an hour after everyone has signed off. But I do read you daily and I’m bound to catch a passionate discussion in progress before long.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:42 amThanks, pete. :)
It’s just me and krystalviews over there right now.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:48 amnearly 1am here, the libs are still on. Of course, they don’t have jobs to go to tomorrow. Bunch of pot smoking work ethicless failures who live off the government.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:58 amIt’s not 1 a.m. everywhere, f uckwit.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:02 amAnd in case you haven’t noticed, YOU are still on, you moronic troll.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:04 amOh I forgot, most of you are west coast. Or as I like to call, left coast.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:04 amMost of us? No, merely some of us.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:07 amJust an FYI. I’m retired and have always been a nightowl. And yes. I collect Social Security, and a small union pension that I had to fight for, after a lifetime of paying in. My needs are adequately met and my modest luxuries are sufficient.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:15 ampete,
Your comments look so youthful! I had no idea you were retired.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:17 amZooey,
I retired young and spent much of my career with younger employees and coworkers. And I have a voracious thirst for new data. Growing up I was taught to respect the newest data over old knowledge and have tried to avoid the trap of being caught within my generation.
And another part is that my parents were old enough to be my grandparents while my grandfathers served in WW1. So I was raised by people who were a generation older than most and then I spent much of my life with younger generations. So, I can mingle with people from anywhere or any age.
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:26 amAn excellent outlook on life, pete. One of the greatest things about going to school at this age is spending time with young people. Some of them are “late bloomers,” but more of them are just really great people. I enjoy being around them.
I always enjoy your comments, and usually learn something from them. :) I also enjoy the rare occasion when you go off on a troll. It’s truly a sight to behold!

Dear Senator John McCain,
When you said Iraq was a success, in what terms?
We went in on a LIE … = SUCCESS?
Hundreds of thousands have died… = SUCCESS?
Al-cia-duh came in AFTER we went in… = SUCCESS?
Abu Ghraib… = SUCCESS?
TORTURE… = SUCCESS?
Please Senator, explain.
XXOO

Electrocuted soldiers… = SUCCESS?
MILLION$ of DOLLAR$ LO$T… = SUCCESS?
War crimes… = SUCCESS?
Contractors… = SUCCESS?

July 3rd, 2009 at 1:47 am.
No YELLOW-CAKE uranium from Africa… = SUCCESS?
The only smoking guns were our own… = SUCCESS?
The only slamming and dunking were was on innocent people… SUCCESS?
Vials of “Freedom Dust” Colin Powell held up to the UN… SUCCESS?

And where do you work? In what trailer park in what welfare sucking red state do you live? I can guarantee that most on this board can buy and sell trash like you. So why don’t you get out of mom’s basement (can trailers have basements)? Maybe some day you can trade up from moonshine and malt liquor to pot. Aim high….loser
We need MORE Sheriffs like him!!!
I figured a socialist web site filled with clueless posters would naturally take issue with one of the BEST Sheriffs in the country.
Where I live USED to have a Sheriff with balls of steel… In those days you didn’t F$#^ with my county.
July 3rd, 2009 at 7:41 pmHow dare Arpaio enforce the laws of Maricopa county? Who does he think he is, Sheriff? You would think hetook an oath or something.
Yet more proof that McCain is unfit for command. He holds WISHED FOR “comprehensive reform” above the ACTUAL LAW!!!! I guess he missed the part where Phoenix (aka Maricopa county)is second only to Mexico city in kidnappings throughout the world. Can you imagine this geriatric jerkoff as commander-in-chief? Boy, did we dodge a bullet.
