McCain is Wil E. Coyote

If you’re in old Berlin and Obama talks hope hope.
Just step aside or might end up in a heap.
Obama, Obama talks to the crowds all day.
Even old John McCain can’t make him change his ways.

Obama, John McCain’s after you.
Obama, if he catches you we’re through.
Obama, John McCain’s after you.
Obama, if he catches you we’re through.

That John McCain is really a crazy clown,
When will he learn he can never mow him down?
Hopey Obama never bothers anyone,
Just throwin’ three pointers his idea of having fun.

… then McCain is Major Frank Burns (from MASH).

Cindy McCain’s bitch.

The resounding consensus seems to be towards Elmer Fudd. Meaning, if Hopey ever takes to leaning lankily on things while munching a carrot, expect a left turn for Albuquerque.

Maj. Major Major Major July 31, 2008 at 1:02 pm

Speaking of 100-year-old dead celebrities, McCain wants to negatively paint Our Barry as a celebrity. Interesting. McCain’s favoritest president of all-time was a celebrity. I can’t remember the guy’s name, some chimp named Bonzo or something. What am I, old?

Elmer Fudd, by a landslide…

At least there’s one poll where everybody watching McCain cna agree.

It must be nice to be an anonymous unknown like McCain who can, no doubt, walk in to any old Diner or Cafe and have a slice of pie and a Coffee and not be recognized or noticed by anyone around him.

AngryBlakGuy July 31, 2008 at 1:07 pm

…wasnt McCain the guy who found the “Golden Fleece” and killed the Minotaur?

I am a born-again Christian and I think that Osama is the anti-christ. I know the word of God. And you mark my words. In 2009 he will be Presindent. In about 2011-2012 He will start to show his true purpose. He does not know this of himself yet, but the spirit of the devil will come upon him and BAMM! Tribulation TIME. Do not be clueless when people disapear in a moments time. We are taken in the Rapture. He like Christ needs a Prophet. Christ had John the Babtist satan must have one too. We do not know who the prophet will be but keep a look out for the person who is forever promoting him diligently. There is no comparison to the devil and Crist but satan want’s to have and be like Christ so in his plan he want’s a prophet just like Christ. You can believe or not this is your choice but please Repent for the Kindom of God is near!!!!!!!

King James giveth the English language scripture, and AOL Commenters taketh the English language away. Far, far away.

Also, I don’t get this – don’t all the crazy reborns WANT the antichrist to come so they can be raptured to their gold cloud city where Lando and Jesus will welcome them?

[re=48945]magic titty[/re]: I expect a lot of these types will be at the Paultardpalooza. Heck, they’re on Minneapolis streetcorners anyway all the time.

If the born agains know the future, ya’d think they would just sit back and let it all happen. But nooooooo…..

Larry McAwful July 31, 2008 at 1:16 pm

[re=48945]magic titty[/re]: What is it with these people who keep talking about the Rapture? If this is going to happen, I hope they hurry up and get it over with. The sooner these crackpots are gone, the better.

I always thought McCain was more Yosemite Sam than Elmer Fudd- quick to anger, shoots off in all sorts of directions yet never hits anything, and incapable of outwitting and beating a much cooler opponent.

Serolf Divad July 31, 2008 at 1:17 pm

[re=48951]tunamelt[/re]:

OMFG, I think I just figured a sure-fire way to get Obama elected!!!!

All those Born Agains are actually breathless at the thought of the tribulation and all that shit. Well, then:

If Obama is, indeed, the anti-Christ, then the end of times is near and Jesus is coming back. But this can only happen if Obama is elected president.

Pass the word (to your local Baptist preacher).

Gopherit v2.0 July 31, 2008 at 1:17 pm

The only reason Elmer Fudd is a reach is the difficulty saying “cwunt-twollop.”

As much as I love Cotton Hill as a suggestion (but are you “freakishlystrong” enough to clean the snarfed soda off my keyboard, mister???), I’m still in love with the Shakespearean meme.

McNasty — Richard III
Hillz — Lady MacBeth, but is “working so hard” to become Iago
Obama — Ain’t but one moor in Shakespeare, and his name also starts with O
Lieberman — You also know who you are, Mr. Merchant
Bill C. — Falstaff

Of course Larry Craig is Juliet to any-gas-station-glory-hole’s Romeo. “What light through yonder [Chevron] window break?” indeed…

Darehead July 31, 2008 at 1:20 pm

Elmer Fudd is incredibly appropriate. An old bumbling man getting continuously outsmarted by the sleek, sly rabbit. Hilarity.

‘That wascally wabbit! mumble mumble mumble.’ I can hear it now, maybe its the next add campaign…

Isn’t that also the basis of the evangelical lurve affair with Israel? The Armageddon It can’t really get underway until the Holy Land is completely controlled by the Israelites, something something?

Let’s find a passage in the New Testament that says The Rapture won’t happen until NCLB is reformed.

McCain is a hybrid. He’s a cross between Walter Matthau, Rodney Dangerfield and Dick Cheney.

queeraselvis v 2.0 July 31, 2008 at 1:27 pm

[re=48974]BobLoblawLawBlog[/re]: Even better: McNasty is Thersites from Troilus and Cressida, who spends most of the play bitching and moaning about Ajax, the Trojans, and everything else. Oh, and from the same play: Bill C=Pandarus.

[re=48979]magic titty[/re]: Yeah, like I wrote above, they get born again and again cuz they just can’t stop the sinnin’. They want the rapture to happen just at that right moment when all their sin bills are paid up, but it never happens cuz they just keep strayin” with those cheeseburgers and beefcakes.

That’s why it is so fun to fuck da born agains, they get so turned on by the guilt. (I don’t know this personally but remember it from Steinbeck, or someone.)

tunamelt July 31, 2008 at 1:32 pm

[re=48985]obfuscator[/re]: Just pretend to have a vision and make it up. That’s how belief in the Rapture got started in the 19th century. It’s got no biblical precedent but some crazy preacher and some chick who had a “vision.”

[re=48999]tunamelt[/re]: There actually is some Biblical precedent, but it’s pretty tenuous — like one line in Thessaloians, I think. A weak argument to base your whole life on, in any event.

“He was initially opposed to the Half-Way Covenant but later supported it.”

“During his tenure at Harvard he regularly stamped out any relaxation of Puritan strictness, such as latitudinarianism, which had flourished during his overseas absence.”

[re=49013]tunamelt[/re]: It could be true. Most of those folks’ faith is based on visions and bumper stickers.

Darehead July 31, 2008 at 1:51 pm

[re=49006]ReelectTilden[/re]: [re=49013]tunamelt[/re]: Hagee has a take on the rapture stuff, and Baldwin has a take, and then there is James Dobson, and well, I mention these folks a lot on Wonkette and nobody seems innerested,…. waaaaaah….sob, sob….

Anyway this is a McCain thread so we’ll stick with Hagee:
http://www.evangelicalright.com/2007/07/rapture_ready_the_unauthorized.html

CUFI [Christians United For Israel] has an ulterior agenda: its support for Israel derives from the belief of Hagee and his flock that Jesus will return to Jerusalem after the battle of Armageddon and cleanse the earth of evil. In the end, all the non-believers – Jews, Muslims, Hindus, mainline Christians, etc. – must convert or suffer the torture of eternal damnation. Over a dozen CUFI members eagerly revealed to me their excitement at the prospect of Armageddon occurring tomorrow. Among the rapture ready was Republican Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay. None of this seemed to matter to Lieberman, who delivered a long sermon hailing Hagee as nothing less than a modern-day Moses. Lieberman went on to describe Hagee’s flock as “even greater than the multitude Moses commanded.”

[re=48967]Serolf Divad[/re]: Exactly right. Look, the big book says, clear as it says anything at least, that the antichrist will take Earthly power, the tribulation and rapture will happen, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Since it’s going to happen, there’s not exactly any good reason to fight it, is there?

I’m not saying you have to vote for Obama if you think he is the antichrist. But, if he is, voting against him and trying to have him lose at the polls seems like something that might be even more useless than prayer.

BadNewsJack July 31, 2008 at 2:28 pm

But, if the rapture comes, then wouldn’t they be all alone here while we’re playing hacky sack with Jebus and Buddha?
