McCAIN Refuses To Define "Honor"

[kpete]

There's a theme that recurs in your books and your speeches, both about putting country first but also about honor. I wonder if you could define honor for us?

McCAIN: Read it in my books.

I've read your books.

McCAIN: No, I'm not going to define it.

But honor in politics?

McCAIN: I defined it in five books. Read my books.

2. Mental acuity clearly on the wane. Take a hard look, America--you think this is better

than voting for a black guy?

3. Kinda makes you wonder

if he actually wrote his books at all

4. How can he define something with which he is unfamiliar?

6. Paranoid much?

When asked if he would keep the straight talk coming, McCain replied, "You think I could survive if I didn't? We'd never be forgiven ... I'd have to hire a food taster, somebody to start my car in the morning."

Come on John, you're not a mafia don; you're a hack of a politician who campaigns on the status of being a POW from a war that is becoming a distant memory to younger generations. As far as being a maverick, leave that to Tom Cruise and the movies.

7. Why does the press corps love this douchebag?

9. I'll have my staff get back to you. Remember I don't speak for this campaign.

My handlers tell me my position, so i'm not sure my old definition of honor is exactly what I think it is today.

11. I have a hunch that we will be hearing about this from our candidate.

parhaps as soon as tonight. Obama will want to call McSame on this honor thing, which is a direct attack on McSame's dishonorable campaign.

12. Read my books!

I guess his books aren't selling well.
