John McCain’s Number One Priority: Beating Hillary Clinton

by Sara K. Smith  

Super tuberOh dear, we do not know how these Facebooks work because we are older than John McCain (and time, apparently). Anyway it looks like you can make Groups on these Facebooks, and here is a group that challenges all Republicans to FACEBOOK FRIEND John McCain so that he will have more friends than Hillary Clinton. This is funny because Hillary Clinton died months ago. Thanks to Wonkette Operative “Ian” for the tip. [The John McCain Facebook Challenge]

And since Hillary has no freinds, this should be easy.

Well, at least John McCain is aware of teh intarwebs, though probably not of all the intarwebs traditions.

He might be trying to mobilize all his base but it actually belongs to us.

Facebook is the tool of the young hipster kids, who all want to see America destroyed by Obama’s socialist programs. McCain will never find enough true patriots there to complete his mission.

columnv July 3, 2008 at 10:07 am

I think Hillz and WALNUTS! should make out.

His other goal is to rescue the Betancourt 3 sometime in his first term.

It is pretty sad that McCain is actually paying people to create an Internet presence for him and he still looks clueless. Either he’s not paying enough or his hiring pool is limited to AZ-area hospices and mentally challenged care centers. Cheney was smart enough to hire people to ‘lose’ all his GOP emails covering up a few years, so why does McCain hire the 60-year old guy that spends more time telling stories about punch cards than actually working?

Walter Sobchak July 3, 2008 at 10:14 am

I’m going to become friends with WALNUTS! and send him invitations to every godforsaken motherfucking annoying-ass application I can find. I’m gonna send him Good Karma, and invite him to Dope Wars, and who the Christ knows what else.
PS- someone invite him to join the Wonkette group, STAT.

EnBuenOra July 3, 2008 at 10:15 am

Hey, at least it was updated from trying to beat Charlemagne’s friend total.

ManchuCandidate July 3, 2008 at 10:15 am

Yes, we could all POWs, Pals of Walnuts.

toastandlove July 3, 2008 at 10:15 am

So it’s finally come to this. “I have more Facebook friends than you” is a legitimate political strategy.

I want Obama to challenge McCain to a Madden tournament.

[re=29126]Walter Sobchak[/re]: Good call!

Dipshit, should read: We could all BE POWs.

Just for comparison’s sake, Sushi(the food) currently has more friends/fans than John McCain.

Nasara July 3, 2008 at 10:27 am

That’s Maverick-licious!

Now I have to figure out how not to be a supporter of John McCain on Facebook!

queeraselvis v 2.0 July 3, 2008 at 10:29 am

He’d have much better luck friending the folks at Country Above Self. Just sayin’.

ForeignSickSpecialist July 3, 2008 at 10:29 am

I will not be a jock supporter of WAL’sNUTZ!, but I will offer comforting support of Michelle Obama’s breasts.

Advocatus_Diaboli July 3, 2008 at 10:29 am

I don’t think riding around in a Facebook account getting shot down by snarky kids is a qualification to be president.

SayItWithWookies July 3, 2008 at 10:30 am

After he beats Hillary, who’s next? I see him getting more friends than Mondale by August.

teebob2000 July 3, 2008 at 10:31 am

He’s updated since I saw it last, when he wanted to beat Wendell Willkie.

WadISay July 3, 2008 at 10:31 am

If McCain needs help, Ted Stevens still has a pretty good handle on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f99PcP0aFNE

Delicious July 3, 2008 at 10:32 am

It does say “first goal.” To beat Obama, he would need 1.1 million Facebook friends.

But honestly, I don’t think he has that many supporters who are even aware of the Internet – nevermind its traditions.

jagorev July 3, 2008 at 10:33 am

This is pretty pathetic, because Hillary has like 10% of the Facebook friends that Barry has.

teebob2000 July 3, 2008 at 10:33 am

[re=29121]columnv: I think Hillz and WALNUTS! should make out.[/re]

Please. Can you look at this picture and think they haven’t yet?

Humble Pi July 3, 2008 at 10:35 am

[re=29120]Godless Liberal *[/re]: To be fair, I don’t think the majority of his supporters get Facebook on their “email machines”. The rest of them are too vain to wear their bifocals and think the name of the site is Facegook and will have nothing to do with it.

NoWireHangers July 3, 2008 at 10:47 am

Once they have more Facebook friends than Hillary they can get back to important things like winning the Spanish-American War.

HomoPolitico July 3, 2008 at 10:49 am

When a candidate gets a profile on Manhunt.net, Adam4Adam.com and Dudesnude.com THAN I’ll start to think about voting for them.

Canuckledragger July 3, 2008 at 10:49 am

Hey Juan: you want more “friends” than Hillaryous? Try blowing Ed Hale @ hcsfjm. It would be in keeping with the strong Republican “tradition” of extra-marital segks with other “men,” and would lock in the 35,000 bitters that Ed leads in his glorious quest to vindicate Hillaryous. You service him; he’ll service you.

It’s a win-win. Only one further decision: spit or swallow?

Truculent July 3, 2008 at 11:11 am

But I don’t WANT to be his friend! (runs away crying)

warreno July 3, 2008 at 11:12 am

John McCain is aware of Hillary Clinton.

nbawriter July 3, 2008 at 11:15 am

My Facebook challenge: Hit John McCain in the face with a book 100,000 times.

Ready, go!

nbawriter July 3, 2008 at 11:26 am

Bill Clinton has issued a SitOnMyFacebook challenge. Let’s see McCain top that one.

Godless Liberal * July 3, 2008 at 11:33 am

[re=29151]Humble Pi[/re]: Looking back, I was silly to think that McCain was ever concerned with completing his mission. He’ll just find a way to crash Facebook like it was an airplane.

tunamelt July 3, 2008 at 12:04 pm

He has more friends than Wonkette. There should be a Wonkette Facebook Challenge–more friends than John McCain!

http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=18303785909

Wonkette = 145
John McCain = 6,515

Humble Pi July 3, 2008 at 12:16 pm

[re=29206]Godless Liberal *[/re]: Then he can say he at least tried, and we’ll give him a medal for it. I’ll check with the Special Olympics and see if they can spare one.

To his credit, he did change it from “…more than Millard Fillmore…”

Just kidding, I meant eleven.

Couldn’t they have found a picture of WALNUTS! where he didn’t look like he was filling his diaper?

tunamelt July 3, 2008 at 1:56 pm

[re=29361]BBtre[/re]: I would sympathize except for Vanity Fair is dreadful.
