John “McNasty” McCain has a well-deserved reputation as a vulgar and delusional psychopath who should be locked up in a crazy house forever, but a Sunday feature on Walnuts’ insanity includes an example from the recent past that tops anything else we’ve ever heard. First he knocked some poor lady into the wall of a Senate office building, and then he nearly punched out another old lady in a wheelchair.
About 25 members of the National Alliance of Families for the Return of America’s Missing Servicemen and Women went to McCain’s office in 1996, after the group’s meeting in Washington. They wanted to see McCain and talk about their relatives who never came home from Vietnam — McCain worked aggressively to end U.S. efforts to find the remains of American POWs in Vietnam, and he is despised by military families for selling out to the communist Viet Cong.
McClatchy’s Washington bureau reported Sunday:
Six people present have written statements describing what they saw. According to the accounts, McCain waved his hand to shoo away Jeannette Jenkins, whose cousin was last seen in South Vietnam in 1970, causing her to hit a wall.
As McCain continued walking, Jane Duke Gaylor, the mother of another missing serviceman, approached the senator. Gaylor, in a wheelchair equipped with portable oxygen, stretched her arms toward McCain.
“McCain stopped, glared at her, raised his left arm ready to strike her, composed himself and pushed the wheelchair away from him,” according to Eleanor Apodaca, the sister of an Air Force captain missing since 1967.

That picture is so disturbing.. I want to cry and hide under my sheets.
Let Wheelchairgate commence in one, two, three…
How do you know the little old lady in a wheelchair wasn’t a suicide bomber? I mean, it’s not like there’s any evidence she wasn’t.
I feel bad for old ladies in wheelchairs getting bitchslapped and stuff, but why would anyone in the right mind ever approach this man? When I see the crazy dude on the corner of 6th and Pine in downtown Seattle waving his magical staff and shrieking about Communist Catholics, I cross to the other side.
He is a hero and will not take any crap from those hippies in wheelchairs or those horribly inflicted with old.
Caught by the people whose village you were trying to bomb. On YouTube, that would earn Epic Ironic Fail awards for years.
Callously dismissing people who share(d) your experiences and their loved ones into walls? Epic Megalomaniac Hypocrite Fail.
I call bs, we all know WALNUTS! is totally incapable of raising his left arm, except to pick his latest cancer scab. Now if he called Ms Gaylor a trollopy cunt I would buy in
But did he call the little old lady a cunt?
Don’t fuck with Walnuts people. Just don’t do it.
John McCain’s No More Mr Nice Guy
I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
Until life got a hold of me
I hot started on bomb loaded Phantoms
I helped my first wife get single
I got no friends cause they read the papers
They can’t be seen with me and I’ve been shot down
And I’m feeling mean
No more mister Maverick
No more mister clean
No more mister Maverick
They say he’s old , he’s a cunt
I got no friends cause they read the papers
They cant be seen with me and I’ve been shot down
And I’m feeling mean
I bit a pup’s head off today
I stomped a cat to death
My wife’s “sprained” her wrist again
My kids had to hide
I went to the office press in tow
When everybody was, this old crippled lady
She recognized me
I Punched her in the nose
Since his captivity, his left arm only move at one speed - “Pimp.”
That pic comes close to the image I have in my mind of what McCain will look like when he finally realizes his poll numbers are only going up because his “supporters” are only betting on his death for a Madame Prez Snowbilly.
He’s a hardass, I’ll give him that.
I think it’s really crappy to bring up this kind of thing about a guy that was tortured by the VC. I’m sure he was just flashing back to his days in that god awfull prison when he had that uncomfortable hunk of metal up his…oh, hold it, I was thinking of something else.
Sorry Wonkette. Unless a McCain story involves onanism with the skulls of still-living Vietnamese infants, it just won’t turn the regulars on.
People don’t care about what happened in 1996. Unless it’s a lie having to do with John Kerry, in which case they care what went on in 1966. Our only hope is that Caribou Barbie fails to do her homework and he gets mad enough to punch HER into a wall. And unless there are cameras there at the time, well, it never happened.
MoodProcessor: Win.
I believe those wheelchair racer guys are also the bane of marathoners. Basically, due to the fact that they can fly down hills at 30 mph and clog up the courses.
But then, who doesn’t also want to punch people who run marathons? It’s hard to know who to hate more.
Didn’t Palin cut funding to special needs kidz?

site title says it all. Yummy Salsa Flavored Kool-Aid!
6 witnesses. In writing.
This should count for something, but it probably won’t. We somehow have to goad him into saying “Fuck all this Jesus shit” when he thinks the mike is off.
Wait, this doesn’t mean that, if I dislike WALNUTS, I have to be nice to those insane people with the “POW-MIA” flags who insist that the commies are still holding hundreds of Americans…does it?
Gopherit v2.0: Possibly - but I think the pic more accurately
depicts McSame as he is about to fellate the Jeebus freaks on the radical
right.
For five-and-a-half years, John McCain was unable to abuse women in the halls of the Senate.
jodyleek: Nah. He learned to keep his eyes closed for that in the Hanoi Hilton.
gurukalehuru: There’s a million youtube videos of McCain checking out Palin’s trunk-junk while playing with his wedding ring. If anyone in the “mainstream” news really wanted to skewer him, they’d use that.
Gopherit v2.0: The vein popping out in the side of his temple is simply frightening. Almost as much as the “ready to fellate, sir!” pose.
“McCain worked aggressively to end U.S. efforts to find the remains of American POWs in Vietnam” Does anyone know why he did this? Or is this part of the joke?
What is it gonna take to Swiftboat this guy? Is the tape of his confession to the Vietnamese still around? That ought to be a hoot.
i can see him on the porch of the white house with his shotgun yelling, “stay off my lawn”.
Isn’t that what they mean by “compassionate conservative”?
AnnieGetYourFun: oh gawd i love you.
Maybe the wheelchair got between McCain and his woman Sarah, and it instinktivley set him off.
Slutty_Chola_Cobbler: That story is so disturbing…i want to punch him in the balls.

I remember when this site was funny. Take a note from Gawker - you have to spread complete lies about both sides, otherwise you just sound like Daily Kos. And there is nothing less funny. God, I miss Ana Marie Cox.
automaton: She’s over on Time’s Swampland blog pretending to be funny. I don’t know if anyone told her that that’s not supposed to be a comedy site.
His base doesn’t care . He could have ass-raped that old lady, but they’re fired up and ready to cast their votes. I don’t think a swiftboat attack or a story about Palin fucking Ted Stevens for earmarks would change their little minds. Who’s left to convince? Moderates and independents and Angelina Jolie? If you don’t have your mind made now, you’ll probably vote for McCain.
Oh, please! I don’t believe this. He looks like such a sweetheart, canoodling with Sarah Palin on their honeymoon trip. That bitter old sow in the wheelchair was probably his ex-wife or something.
Texan Bulldoggette: It’s true. Ross Perot hates him with a white hot passion. Don’t know if he hates black folks more, though. Haven’t heard much of old Ross lately. Is he still alive?
“At age 2, McCain’s tantrums were so intense that he’d hold his breath for a few minutes and pass out. His parents would dunk him in cold water to “cure” him, he wrote in his memoir, ‘Faith of My Fathers.’”
Poor WALNUTS!!! Waterboarded since age two! SEVENTY AND A HALF YEARS!
He fucking trolloped the cunt.
This isn’t true, right? I mean he raised his hand to a woman? in a wheelchair? on fucking oxygen?!!!
How comfortable are you with the sources on this one?
gurukalehuru: I just don’t understand why he did that; seems like that would be a HUGE campaign issue (since Walnuts is always bringing up his POW status). Was that part of the bargain with the North Vietnamese to release him?
McCain was 114 lbs in high school? He must have looked like a cross between Nicole Ritchie and Vern Troyer. No wonder this guy is so angry.
gurukalehuru: Yep, he’s still around. A couple of years ago when I worked at PS, I’d see him in the cafeteria at lunch with his eggroll and his soup.
This is a nutjob accusation - isn’t it?
Leave McCain alone. If you were a POW you’re allowed to grab a little old lady and pull her oxygen tubes out and mimic her suffocations flopping around on the floor and rolling your eyes up.
I still think he’s a Manchurian Candidate and was programmed for this all along… The reason he stopped the search for others is that they might remember him being programmed, and the reason he wanted to slap these folks silly is because they questioned his Viet Cong lords and masters…
Texan Bulldoggette: Why did he not support the GI Bill? Why did he decide that the things we’re doing in Gitmo aren’t torture? Why why why?
The bigger question is why the fuck are people lined up to vote for him and the snowbilly? It makes no fucking sense.
Big deal. I threaten violence on the wheel chair-bound all the time. Where do they get off trying to tell me I can’t park right in front of the Target anyway? Buncha crybabies if you ask me.
I want to believe this, but does McCain have that much use of his left arm? Would this be one of those sneaky things Republicans do (i.e., tucking the needless detail of which arm he raised) to get us all lathered up over something that’s patently untrue, in order to invalidate all the squa-jillion other reasons we have for rejecting this creepy man?
grendel: So basically we’ve got a programmed commie dupe and a secret sneaky Muslim battling for control of the Oval Office? This is the best fucking election year ever!
Prediction: this does nothing to hurt him. Bitters hate the gimpy.
Texan Bulldoggette: It was so McCain could have ALL the records SEALED about his time in captivity.
Ever wonder where all the evidence is about his being tortured to speak propaganda for the Viet Cong?
And what exactly McCain was made to say for the ‘enemy’?
Those records are sealed thanks to Johnny Mac.
He did it to protect his public record from the embarrassment of his FIVE AND A HALF YEARS, ALAN!
Full blown Napolean complex.
I fixed F-4 phantoms in the airforce, and almost every pilot I ever met was
like this asshole. Short, and aggressive as long as there’s no chance he might
get hit back, this would lead to him going off on old ladies and cripples, good
thing no kids were there to fall into his sights. I’m still amazed that people
buy into his story about falling into a lake, what happened to his aircraft?
That’s what the people who rescued him were after, not the douche bag
that was dropping bombs on them minutes before, just scrap they could
sell to make up for the loss of their water buffalo that many pilots had used
for target practice. They blow up real big when you light them up.
Cape Clod: Yeah, but Joe Biden kicks ass… except on teh internet rightz
Awww, Walnuts is so cute! Didn’t you ever want do do this to those old fat women who jump ahead of you then decide to walk at a snails pace in front of you? She so had that coming. That’s marverik behavor and should be awarded with something. Maybe not to be awarded president, but like winner of a bingo hall prize. Go McSnowmonkey
God it looks like he is getting ready to suck a humongous cock! Normally, it would GWB’s, but as a big a prick as the prez is, there is no way his cock is that big. (but hie DICK is)
grendel: Because they are racists and he is there Great White Cancer Riddled Dirty Old Bastard Ass Hope!
I meant Their…Damnit! I sound like Sarah Bitch.
Texan Bulldoggette: The story goes that McCain wanted to hide details of his POW years in Hanoi, so he rushed to end the search for POWs in ‘Nam. Something like that.
Mara47: He seems to have pretty good use of it in the ‘John McCain vs. The Applesauce’ encounter.
the doctor: …well, except for the fact that he knocks over a whole aisle full of apple sauce with it.
Fact: He was a prisoner of war and was tortured.
Republican Conclusion: He is therefore qualified to be POTUS.
Am I alone not being able to see how one leads to the other?
(Absolutely no disrespect for Returned Soldiers intended.)
Obama had a great line about temperment during his DNC speech. Where did that go? That’s got to be a buzz word in campaign ads, dammit.
