Dante once said that the hottest places in hell are reserved for those
who in a period of moral crisis maintain their neutrality.

Energizer Bunny ... keeps going and going ...

Every time John McCain or someone from his campaign does this, I will post it here:

Here is from Andrew Sullivan:

POW Watch
He can't help himself:

"I am grateful for the fact that I have a wonderful life," McCain said. "I spent some years without a kitchen table, without a chair, and I know what it's like to be blessed by the opportunities of this great nation."

Jeez. This is clinical. He's responding to middle class economic anxiety by referring to the Hanoi Hilton?

But it looks like we will be hearing and seeing a lot more about P.O.W. John McCain:

This is from Ben Smith

The POW card, cont'd
First Read quotes unnamed McCain aides suggesting that McCain's prisoner of war experience may become his first response to the attack on his having lost track of his real estate holdings — a non-sequitur, perhaps, but emotionally powerful.

"They will be prepared to show McCain's 'home' in Hanoi by using images of his cell. They claim they have not overused the POW element and insist they have 'underused it.'"

And sure enough, McCain goes there on CBS:

"I spent some years without a kitchen table, without a chair, and I know what it's like to be blessed by the opportunities of this great nation," he says in response to a question about his houses.

Ad nauseum ...

Well, this video slams back ... hey, it's just a little humor ... lighten up.
