John McCain: Stupid is as Stupid does…
I really don’t like to flat out call someone an idiot, but I can’t deny the obvious when it’s staring you right in the face. The evidence is overwhelming: John McCain clearly isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer and based on the last eight years, that isn’t the kind of person you want someone running a nation when it’s about to hit the fan. Last time I check you want a smart, problem solving mind up there taking care of your problems, someone who can think on their feet and make the tough decisions without having to consult a dozen people first if necessary. John McCain isn’t going to be that kind of person. People who finish in the bottom five of a class that is one shy of 900 never are. If you read this article and still want to vote for this moron, you are entitled to get what you deserve. That possibly being an economic depression and the next world war…

Is John McCain Dumb?

Did you know that John McCain is an idiot?
No one ever talks about this, okay? But it’s absolutely true! He finished eight hundred and ninety-fourth out of a class of eight hundred and ninety-nine in the naval academy. Five from the bottom and like George W. Bush, how’d he get away with it? He got one of the best, most coveted spots as a navy fighter pilot. How’d he do that when he finished in the bottom five of his class? Cause his Dad was an Admiral and his Grandfather was an Admiral. Like George W. Bush, he was born on third base and thought he hit a triple!
So he comes in, he gets this best possible position and what does he do with it? He crashed five planes! You’re not allowed to talk about it cause John McCain’s a war hero. Don’t upset the myth making machine of the media… hush up, right? Well, I’m not going hush up… I’m telling you: John McCain is not bright. John McCain got everything he ever got in life because his family was connected and John McCain is a failure. Not just in Annapolis, not just in crashing all those planes, but also in the Senate where he didn’t fix energy, he didn’t do any of the things that he blames Washington for. You were in Washingon for twenty-six long years, how come you didn’t do anything about it?
And in his support for all the failed polices of George W. Bush. Hurricane Katrina: what was happening on the first day? John McCain and George Bush were literally eating cake together, celebrating John McCain’s birthday on a tarmac. Later on John McCain comes out and says, “If I was President I would have gone on a tarmac, gone on a plane and gone to deal with Hurricane Katrina.” You were on a tarmac and you were eating cake with the President! Why didn’t you send him on his way? In his support of all the failed policies of this administration, John McCain is a failure.
And when he says “Oh by the way, let me tell you something: I don’t know much about the economy and all that stuff… but I’m trying to read Alan Greenspan’s book!” do you know waht he’s telling you? He’s saying I spent twenty-six years in Washington, I’m seventy-one years old and I never bothered to learn about the economy. That is an amazing fact! That’s something that Barack Obama should put into every commercial until all Americans say, “All right, ease up off the old man, the poor son-of-a-bitch doesn’t know anything about the economy… I got it already.” He has admitted on three different occassions that he is not good on economic issues, you think that might be a weakness when you’re runnning for President?
Look, the Democrats always apologize for being smart. Don’t apologize for it. Mock them! Say these people are not bright enough to lead the country and look at what happened over the last eight years! Isn’t it time that we pick the best and the brightest?
The problem is being smart is considered ‘elitism’ and being dumb is ‘relating to the average Joe.’ I agree with you. I WANT the elite running this country. I know average Joes. They’re great guys to have a beer with but I wouldn’t want their finger on the nuclear button. But since most voters want someone they can identify with and since by definition, the ‘average’ is common…

he also thinks that people that make over $5 million dollars a year are “rich”. I don’t know ANYONE personally who makes over 5 mil a year… John McCain is a hot head, ignorant candidate.

I don’t like Mccain, but I want to address this: “He finished eight hundred and ninety-fourth out of a class of eight hundred and ninety-nine in the naval academy” What do you call a person who graduates last in his class in med school? Doctor. SOMEONE has to finish last. He could have had a 3.9 and everyone above him a 4.0. We can’t call someone dumb because he wasn’t first in his class.

Tiny Void: There is a huge difference between a naval academy and Med School. You sometimes have to be in the top of your class just to be accepted into Med, so that was a really bad example to pick. When the class is almost 900 people, and the guy who finishes almost dead last gets a job that is normally reserved for the top ten percent, there’s something wrong with that. And the fact that McCain crashed five planes is why people who finish last in the class shouldn’t be hired to fly…
