Conservative columnist George Will lashes out at McCain re: comments about Christopher Cox

[Obamarama]

George Will was in Grand Rapids, MI on Wednesday when McCain and Palin were in town. The following was reported in my local paper, but I'm not sure if this will get national coverage or not. Sounds as if McCain has worked the last nerve of conservatives, which is a very, very good thing!

COLUMNIST LASHES OUT AT McCAIN

GRAND RAPIDS -- Conservative columnist George Will practically boiled out of his trademark bow tie Thursday night, lashing out at Republican presidential nominee John McCain's call for Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox's resignation.

--

Will took a call from Cox shortly before taking the stage Thursday and was visibly perturbed when he hung up his phone.

"This is why some thoughtful conservatives have grave doubts about his ability to be president," Will said.

--

In his speech, Will said McCain worries conservatives because he is someone who "can so polarize every argument into a kind of moral melodrama. You can't have honest difference of opinion with John McCain. This is very difficult because to disagree with he who is honor personified is inherently dishonorable."

5. have you ever noticed

that people with such predictable hot buttons such as "their honor" are almost always dishonorable?

You can hear McCain taking umbrage every time he even thinks someone is going there. It's an odd stance, one might surmise a guilty one, at that.

just sayin'.
