John Murtha, known to be one of the most disgusting Congressmen in Congress (that’s my opinion at least) introduced Hillary Clinton to to the AFL-CIO’s Building Trades National Legislative Conference by talking about how old John McCain is. John Murtha is actually four years older than McCain, but he’s never been one to exhibit insight or self awareness.
“I’ve served with seven presidents,†Murtha told a union audience. “When they come in, they all make mistakes. They all get older.â€
“This one guy running is about as old as me,†he said, drawing laughter and applause. “Let me tell you something, it’s no old man’s job.â€
McCain responded:
“All I can tell you is that I admire and respect Jack Murtha. Speak for yourself, Jack. I’m doing fine. Thanks.”
I understand that as a politician McCain has to say things like ‘I admire and respect the Pig Jack Murtha’. I know he didn’t say ‘pig’, but I did. I’m not a politician so I don’t have to be that diplomatic. I don’t admire and/or respect The Traitor Jack Murtha. I don’t like him at all and I’m tired of him pocketing as much of my tax dollars and he can fit in his piggy pockets (aka the King of Pork).
The difference in John Murtha’s and John McCain’s ability to handle the Presidency in their seventies is as different as their performances in the Senate and Congress. Even more to the point, its as difference as their performance under fire in Vietnam. McCain will have NO PROBLEM handling the Presidency.
