There's a lot of stuff we should be writing about John McCain. Tons. But, no, we're still stuck with the fricking endless Clinton drama sucking the oxygen out of everything.
Here's a good one about the lack of straight talk from McCain on one of his favorite subjects: Earmarks. Yes, McCain's false promises on earmarks are eviscerated by the Washington Post:
The Pinocchio Test
McCain's talk about eliminating $100 billion a year in earmarks is largely fantasy. His advisers are now promoting a more realistic plan of eliminating $100 billion in overall spending. But it is difficult to take even that promise very seriously given the fact that the senator refuses to identify exactly which projects he will be cut. To use a phrase coined by George H.W. Bush, this is "voodoo economics," based more on wishful thinking than on hard data or carefully considered policy proposals.
Not such a straight talker after all.
I don't think anyone's had four pinnochios since Hillary's adventures in Tuzla.
