Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Dems: McCain’s too old

Boy, that Howard Dean sure has a good hold on his party, doesn’t he?  After saying that Dems didn’t need and weren’t going to make an issue out of McCain’s age, the Dems get Abscam Jack Murtha (who is four years older than McCain) to publicly say that McCain’s too old to serve (which, by logical extension, makes Abscam Jack too old to serve in public office, no?).  And then there’s this:

Despite a recent promise from Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean not to make Sen. John McCain’s age — he turns 72 in August — an issue in the presidential campaign, a senior Democratic operative has started a new website designed to draw attention to just that fact.

Called “Younger than McCain”, the website is being run by Steve Rosenthal, a former political director at the AFL-CIO and executive director of America Coming Together, a massive soft money effort organized around the 2004 presidential race. Rosenthal is now a partner in The Organizing Group.

The current content amounts to a 90-second video listing the things younger than McCain — a list that includes the Golden Gate Bridge, plutonium, Coke in a can and Velcro among many, many other things.

The video comes on the heels of comments made by Rep. Jack Murtha (D-Pa.) yesterday that McCain is too old to be president. “This one guy running is about as old as me,” Murtha, 75, told a group of union members in Washington yesterday. “Let me tell you something, it’s no old man’s job.” (The name Ronald Reagan ring a bell, dipsh#t? – Ed.)

Why, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say that Dean is (a) a liar; (b) incapable of leading his party; or (c) all of the above.

  1. a) Murtha is an a$$!
    b) If “he’s old” is the worst thing they can say about McCain, I’d say he’s probably a pretty decent guy then.
    c) They’re just pissed because both their candidates are imploding.

  2. This is not surprising at all. Democrats have no regard for the value of human life. They are willing to abort babies at any stage–even 9 months, they are willing to Euthanize the elderly and infirm. They want murderers to never have to face the death penalty and they think that the few thousand soliders we have lost in Iraq is far worse than the millions killed by the Hussein regime. So–this was coming–there was no way to stop it–its in their nature.

  4. Yeah, ’cause Ronald Reagan was such a dynamic dude for an old guy. Sharp as a tack, he was…
    Let’s see if this rings a bell:
    Investigator: Did you fund the Contras?
    Reagan: I don’t remember.
    I got your hypocrisy right here…

  5. His aides say he wasn’t aware of it, though he accepted responsibility. If only your side would accept responsibility for breaking the law.

    Nice, jackass. Dude was possibly in early stages of Alzheimer’s and you want to kick him.

    Let’s see if this rings a bell: 44 states in 1980, 49 states in 1984. Not all that “sharp”, huh?

    I got your scoreboard right here, bitch.

    His Alzheimer’s aside, seems to me that for nearly the entire eight years of the Clinton Presidency, both Bill and Hillary used that defense. In my neck of the woods, it’s even referred to as the “Clinton defense.” Hypocrisy is rife on both sides of the divide, but far more rampant on the left. Want to start matching point for point, jacka$$?
