John Sidney McCain wonders if Obama is a socialist

By GottaLaff

J Sid "doesn't know" if Obama is a socialist. I can relate to his confusion. I don't know if J Sid has dementia, is a golddigging opportunist, a hypocrite, belligerent, and an insensitive, tasteless nincompoop:

John McCain on Thursday described Barack Obama’s Senate record as “more to the left” than Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont — an independent who caucuses with Democrats but has described himself as an “independent Democratic socialist.”

I guess in all his confusion, J Sid forgot about this, this, and this.

During his town hall meeting with voters in Kansas City yesterday, McCain said, “Senator Obama has the most extreme record of any member of the United States Senate.”

In an interview after the event, The Kansas City Star asked him to clarify the remark.

“His voting record … is more to the left than the announced socialist in the United States Senate, Bernie Sanders of Vermont,” McCain answered, according the paper.

Asked if he thought Obama was a socialist, McCain answered: “I don’t know. All I know is his voting record, and that’s what people usually judge their elected representatives by.”

Want to know what else they look for, J Sid? Good judgment, acuity, and wisdom. Voting with Bush 95% of the time pretty much destroys that maverick image you've worked so hard to achieve. Time to stop throwing labels around, get back on the Fake Talk Express, and drive off into the sunset.
