Recall the McCain campaign recently either canceled or postponed to avoid
controversy a fund-raising affair at the home of another aficionado of
rape humor, Clayton Williams, whose contribution to the lexicon of violence-
against-women jokes compared rape to bad weather, "If it's inevitable, just
lie back and enjoy it".
He lost the Texas governor's race partly because of that quip.
That's right...I think he lost to Ann Richards, how fitting. I am sure Ann had something to say about him making jokes regarding the brutality of a rape.

I am surprised more people aren't on this thread...this is a possible President making jokes about something that is very terrifying ordeal to the citizens of this country.

sigh...I am going to send e-mails to CNN and FOX if I can prove they aren't covering this issue, it's beyond excusable.

I think this is an instance where McCain's age is working in his favor. "Oh, well he's old and is, ya'know, set in his ways."

You know, I've told some pretty tasteless,offensive and crude jokes in my time. And I can laugh at almost ANYTHING. Just ask Duvidoo.

And I'm probably one of the hardest people on the planet to offend, but I just dont see this as one bit funny.

Why is it that all of the republitard candidates seem to be afflicted with Tourettes syndrome?

That's nearly as bad as the one inquiring "...what do all battered women have in common..."

Gotta have the words "deep fried" in the punch line



I think we all got a glimpse of the Old One's sense of humor when he started singing Bomb bomb bomb.....in front of an audience.

he really said that??
My God. He is a warped dude.

While I have doubts about Obama - I have NO doubt McCain is unfit to serve.

If I heard someone repeat this anecdote in real life and laugh at it, I would very quickly walk the other way... actual fear might cross my mind...
and he's running for President.
