CNN:
“I will use the veto as needed. I will veto every single beer — bill with earmarks,” he said, as rumblings from the crowd could be heard. “And every single bill that we have come across my desk I will make them famous. I will veto them, you will know their names.”
Nicole: MSNBC reported that protesters interrupted McCain’s speech:
McCain, who was introduced by eBay Inc. CEO Meg Whitman, was briefly interrupted by three protesters who yelled that war is bad for small business. The protesters were booed and escorted from the room, and McCain used the interruptions to call for civil debate in the campaign.

No Trackbacks To “McCain: “I will veto every single beer”“
Don’t be childish.
He’s just old
He can start with Coor’s Light.
he looks so forced
another senior moment.
Although I can’t say I agree with interrupting a presidential candidate as they speak.
I will say watching this I wondered where he was when those on the right were tarring everyone with the label unpatriotic and un-American when they wanted a civil debate on whether or not we should invade Iraq.
Certainly I think progressives are better than that, we don’t have to shout down the other side because we have sense, reason and morality on our side, but he can hardly complain about being shouted down when he tacitly approved of his side doing the same before.
That sonovabitch better keep his sweaty meathooks off my Guinness.
Man, I can hardly wait for that first Obama-McCain debate.
The choice of the neocon warmongers. Dumb and dumber, easier to manipulate. Poor choice for America.
prunes and grapefruits
By November, the Republicans will be viewed as the party that wrecked the nation, and McCain will be in a hole so deep that nobody will be able to see his lips move.
He said he ran out of funny things to say. When did he say something funny?
Don’t come near my beer, Thems fightin words.
That’s EX CEO Meg Whitman. I think she stepped down recently.
I don’t know how anyone can get the word beer and the word bill mixed up unless he was thinking how good a beer would go down about now. He sure isn’t at ease speaking in public. Can’t wait for the debates. It’s gonna be Nixon sweating bullets all over again.
Jo @ 13:
Like taking a knife to a gunfight.
when was ebay considered a small biz
the fact is, not one repug plan benefits small biz
not one tax cut or tax break benefits small biz
keep yelling the old coot down
well. he owes his (wife’s) hundreds of millions to ….. beer.
Screw him! Elect me instead and I will only veto shit beers like Coors and Budwiser! I will pass every good beer that’s brewed though! Long Trail, Guiness, Saranac, Otter Creek, Sam Adamas and Magic Hat for all!!
Ron @ 11:
he thinks reagans line “there you go again” is funny
and it really is…if you look at what reagan was talking about, and how carter was right on the money as to what his policies would do to the country….yup, funny line
I usually drink beer with my mouth, not my ears so those would be lipmarks on the can. Boy is McCain out of touch. Not only can’t he distinguish Shiite from Sunni or al Qeada from al Qud, the man simply doesn’t know his rich white @ss from a hole in the ground.
This is off topic, but South Korea is in total meltdown with protests.. The
Presidential palace is steeled barricaded to keep protests out….

What’s he doing
Trying to make boosh choke on his pretzel?
GOP hates small businesses. Single payer health care would take an enormous burden off of small business owners. That’s why the republicans fight it.
Wheres the flag pin?
I love at the end of this video when McCain pulls out a pen and holds it in his fist. He really looks a lot like former Senator Bob Dole did in 1996. Go look at pictures of the two of them side by side with a pen in their fist if you don’t remember, and you will see what I mean.
It’s important that the crazy grandpa candidates of today should honor the crazy grandpa candidates of the past.
John Donahoe is CEO of eBay since March. Meg is still on the board of directors. Just thought I’d throw that in if it’s not off topic. If it is, delete.
“Blinky” McCane needs a time out to get his GOP good ol’ boy talking points straight. Don’t he know dat his base lahks t’ vote fer a feller they c’n have a beer wit’? I mean, ain’t that th’ conventional wisdom?
“My friends, I may be pasty and wrinkled and liver spotted and scarred and have yellow teeth and this weird puffiness on the side of my face, but….wait, what was I saying before? Oh never mind.”
Apparently McCain isn’t the kind of guy you can have a beer with. A prune juice yes, but somehow I don’t think that will wash well with the working class.
Is this a major issue?
Attila the Appeaser, Bilderberg Despot @ 21:
Single payer would take an enormous burden off from everyone. We live in constant fear of one accident or one major illness putting us in the poorhouse. But Republicans like a system based on constant fear.
What about pretzels, I mean lobbyists?
Anon @ 22:
good eye
Da beerss….
So much for distancing himself from Bush.
roflcopter - so much for being the candidate you want to have a beer with.
And face it, without beer, how can anyone reconcile the fact that you are preaching fiscal restraint while being a cheerleader for the war? That’ll call for another Hoegaarden, methinks.
O.T. but, where or why are they wearing so many pink ties.
Ron @ 34:
Any MBA will tell you it’s salmon not pink.
Rob Scott @ 28:
Actually, yes. I’ve spent eight years listening to a coke sniffing, war dodging, business failing chimpanzee destroy the English language. I deserve at least four years of someone who can express a simple thought without mumbling and stumbling.
IN OTHER NEWS:
Is there any doubt who the Republicans are working for? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/200.....il_profits
Still don’t http://www.aztlan.net/oiltanker.htm get it http://www.conspiracyplanet.co.....entid=2857 ?
GOP blocks effort to tax oil companies at a time when they are enjoying record profits and Americans are paying $4 at the pump!
mccain is similar to reagan in that they didn’t allow a little thing like dementia stop them from running for president. how is he going to deal with middle of the night situations with all those meds he’s taking?
We all know that 1 DUI Dubya and 2 DUI + “shotgun your friend in the face” Cheney would never veto a beer!
In all likelyhood he was just giving a shout out to the source of his wife’s hundreds of millions. It probably was his way of saying “thank you” to the free use of the company jet!
Yet again, the Republican party has demonstrated that they cannot nominate a coherent candidate.
aster @ 3:
Yes, sometimes, in the right light, you can see his marionette strings.
tr @ 38:
You raise a valid point.
Rob Scott @ 28:
Of course not. It’s just funny that his slip included an unintentional reference to his wife’s fortune.
Rob Scott @ 28:
I would think the overt senile dementia and incoherence of a Presidential candidate is a major issue. Then again, it didn’t seem to count for Reagan or Bush.
Snowball @ 40:
:) They have to find someone to lead a coalition of big-government theocrats, no-government Libertarians, war profiteers and blue collar dupes.
Only those experienced in incoherence can handle such dissonance.
OMG - that’s the last time I ever want to hear a presidential candidate snort - at himself. “I’m running out of funny lines” - nice to see he’s working on that “jovial attitude” they told him he’d need to come even close to barely beating Obama.
is it me or does it seem like mccain’s been eating a steady diet of stupid since he won the nom?
Why does he blink so much?
McCain’s bringing back Prohibition???!!!
Then we’re bringing back Capone.
(BTW, what the fuck’s up with that black pen he pulled out? I thought he was going to jam it in somebody’s eye)
ashabot @ 48:
It’s the serial lying that does it.
you aint vetoing my beer you damn fascist!
There will be a revolution if you veto our beer.
Jo @ 13:
I suspect he was reefering to beermarks …
RoscoPeeholePain @ 47:
he is on the neocon i.v. intravenous bullshit feeding
Sunni - Shiite. Iraq - Iran, Bill - Beer. The frequency of mental lapses is accelerating. If he’s elected we may wind up with Bush’s policies and Ray-gun’s mental adroitness.
“An honest beer makes it’s own friends, my friends.”
McCain: “I will veto every single beer”
The Beer Baroness was not amused,
And it’ll follow him to his bier.
