McCain: I Know
War, Dammit!
In a recent interview, Senator John McCain tried
emphasized his strength on National Security. Here is a transcript
of the interview:
Megan: I read your website and I have a couple
of questions of clarification.
John: OK, Shoot. Hehe. Get it? War? Shoot? Hehe.
Megan: Um, well, my first question is, do you
have a plan to help the Iraqi people to do those 'non-military'
things that you talk about in your website because...
John: No.
Megan: ...you seem to have left it... what?
No?
John: No.
Megan: Why not?
John: I think the real question is: Why? We're
not there to coddle the Iraqi's, we're there because it's
a war and we fight wars. They will be responsible to rebuild
under our protection into a democratic and peaceful society.
Of course we will train and arm their police forces...even
if it takes 100 years. You just wouldn't understand, you've
never been to war. I know war, dammit!
Megan: You're right, I don't understand.
John: Yes, I'm always right.
Megan: OK... Senator McCain, are you planning
on invading Iran?
John: No. Not at all.
Suddenly McCain's feet flew up onto his chair
and he sat squatting like a monkey. I carried on nervously.
Megan: I have heard Joe Lieberman say that under
no circumstances should Iran be allowed to have nuclear weapons.
Are you saying that you would be flexible regarding dealings
with that country?
During this question, McCain had acquired a
distant look. Then he started jumping around like a monkey
grunting, 'war, war, war, war, war, war, war,' until one of
his aides came in and slapped him. The aide then asked me
sternly, "Did you say... Iran?" I nodded. "We
don't say that word on the campaign trail! Didn't you get
the memo?!" Then McCain, seemingly back in control, informed
me that this interview was over. Just kidding.
