John McCain is inspiring some very spirited protests from, uh, these two people, pictured here.
The lady, on the left, is a 61-year-old librarian, according to ProgressNow. She spent, oh, about 30 seconds making this sign and then she showed up at McCain’s campaign event in Denver today. And then McCain’s security goons saw the shoddy sign and ordered her deported by the Denver Policemen. This is a violation of the Constitution.
Also, the other protester, the tall bald character, what is he doing? He has a picture of George W. Bush’s head taped to what, a green hot dog? Is it a costume of some kind, maybe for kids? His date, Meghan McCain, seems to approve.

…Ive heard of blue balls, but green balls?
It’s a peapod. Two peas in a pod.
You can claim that victory for freedom. Librarians=Fucking terrorists.
[re=30834]SenateIntern[/re]: Gee, ya think?
[re=30833]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: You get them when you don’t wash for a month or two. Or so I’ve heard.
[re=30833]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Probably all he is saying is ‘give peas a chance.’
Remember, Denver is the same town where the infamous “Denver Three” incident took place. Well, infamous in Denver, for about three minutes.
Bush was in town for some sort of speech and three people arrived in a car with a “No Blood for Oil” bumper sticker. They were kicked out of the speech based on their bumper sticker. The really odd thing was, no group would take credit for the “bouncing”. I think they finally figured it out to be undercover FBI, but my memory is a bit fuzzy. Could have been CIA.
(my favorite part of that photo is the way the two cops are looking at each other…it’s kind of a “Are we really fucking kicking this old lady out?” look.)
There really should be a Witless Protection Program.
The Yin to Harriet Christian’s Yang.
[re=30837]Ken Layne[/re]: NO! NEVER!
If those were REAL officers of the law, they would be spraying her with a firehouse, for Jeebus.
A slightly tighter font and this would have been worthy of my respect:
McCain > Bush
It would have been so ambiguous.
Ambiguity is what’s missing in protests.
Don’t blame John McCain, a lot of his formative years were spent pre-Constitution.
The sign, I believe, was thoroughly constructed. The wavy nature of the lines is meant to represent inconsistency. The “McDonalds” font is meant to show corporate kow-towing.
[re=30837]Ken Layne[/re]: But there are four peas, so it doesn’t work. I figured that out when I graduated the Senate Intern program.
…I figure if you are gonna get tossed out of an event for a poster, you might as well go for broke! I would go with something like “McCain licks “W’s” salty balls and likes it!”
Kreck will be plying her librarian skills in Gitmo, checking in and checking out the same copy of of the Koran for the rest of her days. Thank Jeebus for Walnut’s SS.
[re=30855]WonkaBee[/re]: Thus the expression: “They’re like two peas in a four pea pod.” Duh!…or have I taken too many of these pea-sized green pills?
[re=30856]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Or “McCain is elbow deep into Bush”! Oh, there’s lots of ‘em. Better ways to go.
Librarian? Does that mean she’s voting for Bob Barr?
[re=30842]hockeymom[/re]: hey! she’s a librarian. No telling what sort of terrorist things she has been reading up on.
[re=30868]qwerty42[/re]: Fucking librarians with their ron pauls and their bob barrs always ruining it for good upstanding repubicans
[re=30861]jagorev[/re]: oh. right. bad joke already made. I should read threads closer.
McCain = Bush …. In theory, shouldn’t that be a sign supporting the Republican party? Isn’t that why McCain jumped on the tax cut bandwagon, started waterboarding Wesley Clark and blew baby Jeebus and Ted Hagee over the past 8 months?
Is she saying that McCain prefers unshaved?
[re=30873]ManchuCandidate[/re]: No! no! It’s “McCain = Bush” or “McCain IS a bush”. Or shrubbery. Or something. But we knew that.
Am I really the first to say that I would spend way more than 30 seconds on a sign if it meant I could get arrested by the cop in the middle of the photo? I’d even go to a McCain rally for him.
[re=30873]ManchuCandidate[/re]: McCain is to bush as Cindy is to…
Actually that profile looks more like Jenna than Meghan..
The quilted old lady is getting harassed by BOTH cops, but Green Pea Joe is getting approached by some kind of hooker who is literally rubbing his giant balls. Shows you where a LiT-Tle creativity can get you, folks.
[re=30880]Brutus Harlot[/re]: …abusing other peoples prescriptions?
Can someone pleeeeease ask President Dumbass if he was offended by this? And if he was, by which part exactly? This could be hugely entertaining campaign if we can get Boy Wonder and his heir apparent sniping at each other.
Dissent is terrorism. It’s time to burn all the books in her library and then waterboard her ass in Cuba.
[re=30848]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: I wanna see someone sprayed with a firehouse, now THAT would be something.
The only way my anger will be sustained is if I can see pictures showing that my man Obama’s security team wouldn’t do the exact same thing to ole whatsername (you know, the crazy NYC Hillary lady) for marching in with whatever crazy shit she scrawled on posterboard with the Sharpie markers she carries at all times. In case of protest emergency.
[re=30851]nyhfrog[/re]: I’d have gone with
McCain «» Bush
or maybe
McCain ¿ Bush ?
to get kind of a Mexican implication in there.
I work with librarians. Fucking idiots, every one of them. I wish the cops had a couple of German Shepards with them.
Tha-at’s not change we can believe in. Actually, I guess it’s not change at all.
[re=30856]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: [re=30859]nyhfrog[/re]:
Yeah, but if a 61-year-old librarian with a sign that banal gets hassled by two big, burly cops, just think what’d happen if you were toting a meaner sign.
I’m guessing that the guy dressed as a “giant peas in a pod” did not get in.
[re=30896]Cape Clod[/re]: Sorry about your reshelving job.
All the librarians I’ve known have been very professional at work, very liberal outside of work, and swinging-from-the-chandelier fun in bed (so far as I’ve gotten to know them). Also, I think SanAntoneRose is a librarian, IIRC, and s/he seems pretty cool.
hey baby, is that a pea pod in your pants or are you just happy to see me?
[re=30837]Ken Layne[/re]: With a sense of humor this sharply tuned, we can safely assume that SenateIntern is going to have a hard time laughing at enough of his/her boss’ jokes to get buttfucked in the Republican Cloakroom.
Maybe she meant George Bush Senior which many might take as a compliment!
Also I don’t trust anyone who is too lazy to get their signs printed up at Kinko’s. Its cheap and easy!
I love how she’s portrayed as a mild mannered librarian. Did ANYONE do any research on this chick? I bet the secret service did.
Finally, a campaign that is willing to stand up to demented, crazy old people…, oh, wait.
Can I rant? Good. I’m so sick of how people acting like “McCain = Bush” is inflammatory MoveOn.org propaganda, in the same vein as Bush = Hitler. NO IT’S FUCKING NOT. It is a little stupid to just call him “McBush” and use that as your entire political argument, but ALL the policies that got Bush’s approval rating so low are policies that McCain plans to continue. McCain would have been miles better in 2000 but now he is offering 4 more years of the same bullshit. Just because he gets up and pays lip service to some bullshit about alternative energy doesn’t mean the next 4 years are gonna be any different under McCain.
But maybe that sign should have said MCCAIN = BUSH – CHARISMA
[re=30924]ronaldpagan[/re]: Bush? Charisma? You sprinkled way too much acid on yer Cheerios this mornin’ RP.
i have lost all interest in this campaign. i have followed barry with passion and something approaching the unhealthy since he was but a glint in the axelrod’s eye but i cannot go on.
i look to hollywood for my emotional support now.
[re=30924]ronaldpagan[/re]: Cindy MCCAIN = Laura BUSH, at least as far as their medicine cabinets are concerned.
[re=30924]ronaldpagan[/re]: Or McCain = Bush + 20 years and dementia
But seriously, they’re handling her with kid gloves. Where are the fucking rubber bullets? Shouldn’t they at least be swabbing her eyes with pepper spray?
[re=30935]Q2[/re]: You got me! I love acid and Cheerios! But come on, Bush quite literally charmed the pants off the entire media up until a couple years ago.
[re=30940]Baiowulf[/re]: Cindy McCain = Laura Bush X Rush Limbaugh / body fat
I don’t get it. Is she being arrested because her sign is disruptive, or because it’s unprofessionally made?
Oooh, that’s fun.
MCCAIN + (BUSH – DAN QUAYLE) = BOB DOLE
BUSH – MCCAIN = JIM NABORS
MCCAIN ^ 2 = BUSH / ROVE * (MR. T)
MCCAIN + BUSH = [Picture of an explosion]
Those cops both got kicked out of her library in 7th grade. The sign has nothing to do with it. They can’t read, but they can carry a grudge!
[re=30955]stolichnayaaa[/re]:
RAINBOW + UNICORN – BALLS = GENERAL ELECTION OBAMA
Meghan looks kinda slutty. I think I’d do her.
Bah, she merely forgot the “!” in “!=”. And for this she gets the body search in the Dewey Decimal. Ain’t fair, I tells ya!
I’m sure the cops had overdue books, so, you know, REVENGE! MOO HA HA!
[re=30840]Darehead[/re]: AHahahahah, appeaser!
[re=30835]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Librarians are very liberal — strong on not letting homeland security know you’ve been reading _The Anarchists’ Cookbook_, for example.
[re=30975]zhubajie[/re]: I once had an anarchist for dinner. He was very bitter.
[re=30857]bitchincamaro[/re]: Prison librarian is a library school intern job!
[re=30976]TGY[/re]:You should have barbecued him. 10-12 hours in the barbecue pit, a good sauce on the meat, and even a libertarian would be tolerable.
Zhu Bajie
First Mugabe gets worse than ever, now a crazed Liberian is intruding on our Presidential parade. Haven’t these Africans enough problems of their own?
Anyone notice how HOT those two cops are? What’s a guy gotta do to get manhandled by them???
ARE YOU QUESTIONING JOHN MCCAIN’S INTEGRITY?
/Scheiffer
[re=30889]WhatTheHeck[/re]: Dissent is terrorism. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. The Republican Reich will last a thousand years!
By the way, Wonketteers–the Thought Police would like a word with you.
Myrna just wanted to be manhandled by two hot cops.
Coming to think of it, I wonder if Myrna will let me borrow her sign while she’s in jail.
This is just part of McCain’s plan to remove everyone who’s younger than him so he’s the most vibrant and refreshing visage in the room.
Yeh, those cops look like the good looking extras you see on crime shows, but almost never in real life. I like the tall one myself. If you watch the video he has one of those, I’ll take no nonsense cop voices that sends a tingle up my leg.
If that’s the guy behind those Visualize Whirled Peas bumper stickers I will hate him soooooo much.
[re=30840]Darehead[/re]: or “Visualize Kicking George W. Bush in the Balls”
Can we get a comment from McCain himself on this episode?
I mean those jack booted thug goons just kicked out his number one demographic,(grey haired people who are easily confused).
I bet he has some harsh words for his SS (secret service not the nazi storm troopers)detail.
But in the interest of being fair and balanced she does look like a cunt trollop.
I think the librarian is calling McCain a pussy.
She is telling the cop to kiss her ass.
The cop responds, “God damnit mom, keep it down. People are staring at you!”
[re=30873]ManchuCandidate[/re]: She’s holding the word Bush next to her own lady parts. So I’m thinking the sign is an invitation.
[re=30955]stolichnayaaa[/re]: Probably the most insightful bit of punditry this season.
Those cops are HOT! Where can I get me one of those????
[re=30922]savagerabbit[/re]: Did ANYONE do any research on this chick? I bet the secret service did.
No, that’s not how things roll in modern America. What happened was the FBI presented her with a search warrant requiring her to do research on herself, plus a gag order saying she couldn’t tell herself she was doing it.
[re=31020]JSDC007[/re]: Forget about borrowing the sign, it’s the jacket that seals the deal.
Quilted and omg so hawt!!!
Oh, so he’s not going to allow people with opposing views to have access to him during the campaign.
Pussy.
The old broad is NOT being ejected from the McCain meeting. She’s being professionally escorted to the OFFICIAL political protest area created by the Denver PD. It just happens to be down the street, left at the alley, and behind the Waste Management dumpster — where she was allowed to wave her sign vigorously at the winos peeing nearby.
