McCain's Magic Pony

J.C. Say

Sullivan asks: “And did Bush’s Nazi silliness unwittingly stomp on McCain’s big speech today?”

To which I respond, if McCain is lucky. I briefly blogged about the McCain speech yesterday, asking why he chose 2013 as a good time to withdraw the troops, and after having some time last night to watch more of the speech and read the whole thing, I have my answer.

There is no answer. The whole speech is made up. It is all, every last word of it, pure fantasy. There was no outlining of plans, no presentation of facts that would lead you to believe all of the things he “sees” in his “vision” will come to pass- it was nothing but pure nonsense

Chamberlain

Everything I know about Chamberlain and Hitler, I learned from Robyn Hitchcock:

Chamberlain
Came crawling from Munich
With one piece of paper
He waved at the camera
'Peace in our time'
Oh thank you Herr Hitler
Tell that to the Polish
Tell that to the Jews

-- Cynthia Mask, verse 2

It's not much, but it's more than this guy knows, and he gets to be on TV! (drink every time he says "appeasement" !)

On the other hand, Robyn's presentation of history might not be entirely accurate:

Napoleon
Wore a black hat
Ate lots of chicken
And conquered half Europe
Napoleon
Was caught by the British
Imprisoned on Elba
He died on the phone

-- Cynthia Mask, verse 1

I suppose the lesson here is: always verify, especially if your source is a GOP shill.

The Unprovable is Proved!
