I learned my lesson on the last onion bit. Glad I looked
before I typed today. Above comments are much funnier
than the onion video, keep them coming!

Perhaps McCain has "protection" from another source...George Soros. Perhaps this is an attempt to lower the standard of protection for other Presidential candidates.

btw: if mccain is so effin tough then how come he can’t face down the illegals?

if mccain is so tough then why won’t he keep gitmo open?

if mccain was really tough he wouldn’t suck up to libs.

If McCain is so courageous, why won’t he do an interview with Michelle Malkin?

Not too swift. What if someone the secret service could have stopped shoots someone else in addition to him, like, oh say, his wife or daughter?

MB4 on May 5, 2008 at 6:50 PM

True, but didn’t Bill Clinton send his wife, daughter and Sheryl Crow into all that sniper fire in Bosnia?

The Onion…wow!

The most memorable headline from their printed edition:

Special Olympics T-Ball Tee Pitches Perfect Game

It was just funny…geeze people, not everything is a political debate…you’re just sad because Obama ran out of arugula.

McCain carries a poisoned mini-crossbow under his coat and has had one eye replaced with an argon laser that triggers when he says “My friends…”.

Try anything, and you will need a lot of coffins.

Without the Onion logo and the kiddie drawings, most people would buy this if excerpted on the evening news.

And would admire him for the chutzpah.

Go big john!

As a 71 year old retired soldier I can relate to that attitude and behavior.

At the risk of stating the obvious, the onion story is funny because it's based on truth.

“McCain declines Secret Service, dares assassins to try something”

Great. He’s more at risk by the crazies on the right than on the left. Not that I would think that anyone here would ….

Nah.

Another reason the VP spot is so important with the crazies on the LEFT out there.

McCain Declines Secret Service, Dares Assassins To Try Something

Oh I’m sure this challenge will not go without execution.

The terrorists would love it.

McCain should one up Hillary and challenge the winner of her truck bed debate to a debate atop a freight train going full speed.

I bet Hillary would chew off her own balls if it meant getting the nomination. I think Maverick needs to get tougher and smarter.

Is Juan's going to the La Raza conference (earlier thread) to pay homage made up too? Now that's something that is should be really unbelievable.

The video was kinda funny, but the quote on the main page:

“The day I get outtracked in the jungle is the day I saw off my own balls.”

almost made me choke on my sandwich. Hilarious
