McCain pandering

Our Pandering Hero

John McCain, who stayed overnight on Monday at the Cartagena retreat of President Alvaro Uribe, has seemed to revel in the brief trip to this seaport resort –- he called it "one of the most beautiful cities on earth." The Caucas – NYT

Is this guy pandering for votes in Colombia or just trying to stay sharp for the general election here? Damn, is there no end to the sucking up this so-called hero will do?

"Cancer and nuclear energy not coupled"

There is absolutely no reason for an Internet activist like me to waste time bashing old man McCain. I could never paint a picture of him as some sick old fool pandering for a dozen votes like the self-portrait he's painting.

Wow! If cancer and nuclear energy are not coupled, John, why do people working with the stuff wear protective clothing?

In Las Vegas McCain reiterated his call for building 45 new nuclear power plants by 2030, and a total of 100 at some point beyond that, despite the waste they might generate.
