Lieberman lies about McCain health outlook

Benedict Arnold Lieberman is now saying that he's "talked to doctors," and their conclusion is that John McCain will live to 85, at least.

Huh?

That's absurd. I've read a lot about this issue, and I've seen no one - NO ONE - willing to go on the record and guarantee that McCain will make it to 85. In fact, there's been a lot of talk about the percentage chance of McCain dying during a second term (AP says 25% chance). That's because McCain has had 4 bouts of cancer, one quite serious and deadly. And he's not out of the woods yet. But McCain won't release his medical records so we can find out, once and for all, if he is expected to live to 85.

And one more thing. Lieberman reiterated the McCain campaign canard that McCain's mother is 96 (so apparently we're to believe that he'll be 96 some day too). What they don't tell you is how old McCain's dad is. That's because he died at the age of 70 of a heart attack. And McCain's grandfather died at the age of 61 of a heart attack. McCain is 72.
