McCain Leads Fight to Pardon Jack Johnson
John McCain is fighting for a pardon for his good friend Jack Johnson. McCain was an amateur boxer back in the day and long admired Johnson’s fighting, or so he says. Once he gets the bill in front of Barack Obama McCain is all set to yell “Get Off My Lawn” again fromt he comfort of his porch.
