McSame video@Des Moines Register: "If I were dictator, which I always aspire to be..."
In his intro before the board he commented on Congress failure to act on the bail-out bill, saying the bill wasn't the perfect answer, but...

"If I were dictator, which I always aspire to be, I would write it differently..."

Oh yeah, he said it. Seriously. It's one of those :wtf:?? moments. I stumbled across this last night, waited for someone, anyone to post it anywhere, and yet today - nada. So here in all his glory, at 56:50, I give you John McBush:

1. This interview is so full of goodies, it might be his final downfall.
It's an absolute disaster--in tone, demeanor, and content.

2. That may actually appeal to the base
They love a take-charge type.

5. Ok, so McCain aspires to be a dictator.......and we should elect the bastard???
Holy Crap. I don't see how that can't be the nail in the coffin.

6. I hope the Obama campaign rushes out an ad...
...showing that footage back-to-back with Captain Crotchsock's "it would be a lot easier if this was a dictatorship -- as long as I get to be dictator" clip.

That would be the ultimate way to cement the "more of the same" meme.

7. The Obama campaign MUST make this into a commercial, using
this clip along along with Bush's about "If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heckuva lot easier!"

11. Need an ad of McCain saying that line, then Bush saying this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD3xfT0c99g

MORE OF THE SAME - and dare I say it - WORSE.

13. But, YOUR problem is, that you see this as somehow a BAD thing
that will HURT him and the repukes...but you couln't be more WRONG.

While most will not mention it openly, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE REPUKES WANT! - as long as THEY are in control!!!

And I am NOT making this up, nor meaning to be funny...

15. Is that what he's saying? I'm trying to see if there's any way he's saying something that is mishear
misheard- because he doesn't even seem to be saying it as a joke, but as a matter-of-fact statement!!!!!

That's as stupid a thing to say as anything in politics!

17. Oh my: what a Mavrickish interview
It takes a real Mavrick to not just shoot himself in the foot, but publicly machine-gun himself, politically, for the voters.

Conventional candidates try to win their elections, and McCain is certainly not conventional.

18. Dictator of what? Space? But he's not an astronaut
Man... there is just now way Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber can win this election. I don't think it could even be stolen. The election riggers are sitting this one out.

20. I guess it is one of his sick jokes but it was not delivered like a joke.
In fact that whole performance is downright weird, imo.

23. That is an eerily appropriate bookend for Dubya's "It'd be easier if this were a dictatorship...
as long as I'm the dictator."

VotersThinkDotOrg and CSpanJunkieDotOrg usually includes that particular clip of Bush at the end of their YouTube videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/VOTERSTHINKdotORG and http://www.youtube.com/user/CSPANJUNKIEdotORG

24. Recommended. I am trying to watch the whole video.. it is very apparent that not
only is this man an asshole he is not fit to lead. I see no leadership qualities coming through. It is like he has a giant chip on his shoulder.
