McCain’s Auntie Says He Will Die In Office, But Whatever

Almost as hilarious as John McCain’s 96-year-old mother Roberta is her twin sister — McCain’s auntie! — Rowena Willis. These spunky gals just say whatever the hell they think of first, making them ripe targets for reporters’ exploitation. Willis is now telling The Daily Beast this truth about her nephew: “I’m hoping he wins, for the country’s sake. I figure it will kill him, but he’s going to die one day anyway, so he might as well do it there.” She also says that Roberta doesn’t give a shit who wins. [Daily Beast]

    That’s the kind of senior spunk we need leading a convalescent home!

    That is the funniest quote I have read in over 3 days. I expressed my approval audibly.

    Haha! Is that Ahhhnold?

  4. Gopherit says at 4:34 pm, November 4th, 2008

    I wonder if McCain thought about getting a pillow out for her yesterday when Hopey’s Grandma died.

  5. Blue Line says at 4:35 pm, November 4th, 2008

    No sentence that involves Sarah Palin becoming president should end with the words “but whatever”. Also.

  6. Oh, those crazy McCains? What will they say next?

    Tune in next week to “Gramps & the Governor” for more hilarious shenanigans!

    WAIT! How the fuck is this broad still alive??!! That doesn’t give me much hope of John McCain keeling over anytime soon.

    “She really doesn’t care,” Willis said of her 96-year old twin sister, who has campaigned for her son and recorded TV ads with him. “‘Let these bastards get in,’ she says, ‘I don’t give a damn anymore. If these people want to buy votes and get their people in office, let them suffer for it in the way of high taxes.’”

    Wow… I wanted to feel sorry for her but… fuckit… let her stew in it!

  9. PoliticalGraffiti says at 4:36 pm, November 4th, 2008

    old people really dont give a shit

  10. hedgehog says at 4:37 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Now he’ll be able to live longer and die while screwing a blonde lobbyist with a belly chain.

  11. liquiddaddy says at 4:37 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Neither one is looking at his arm muscle. Kind of creepy.

  12. AngryBlakGuy says at 4:38 pm, November 4th, 2008

    …someone needs to get these 2 ladies a talk show ASAP!

  13. smashtheduck says at 4:38 pm, November 4th, 2008

    HAHAHAHAHA Michelle Malkin is on Fox. She has had her own very personal experiences with the Black Panthers.

  14. mattbolt says at 4:39 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Oh God, this is just like when we learned that Mr. Burns has a mom

  15. magic titty says at 4:39 pm, November 4th, 2008

    That picture might save the Union.
    smashtheduck: It’s called an orgy, Michelle.

  16. DarkSynergy says at 4:41 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Little known fact, Arnold is actually sitting on their husbands as he flexes.

  17. answerbird says at 4:41 pm, November 4th, 2008

    They are in the tank for Obama

  18. Quincy Woo says at 4:47 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Best yet:

    “…He has all the money in the world, he could do whatever he wants, even without his wife’s money, which he does not have.”

    Feats of logic are being performed here.

  19. smashtheduck says at 4:49 pm, November 4th, 2008

    I’m guessing no one is still sober at this point. I need a designated typer.

  20. Local Moran says at 4:51 pm, November 4th, 2008

    I would offer something about pitying the intolerant … but pity is such a pitiless emotion.

  21. problemwithcaring says at 4:52 pm, November 4th, 2008

    I figure it will kill him, but he’s going to die one day anyway, so he might as well do it there.

    Shit, kinder words haven’t been spoken about his campaign in weeks. Also someone should tell Roberta before she gets in the tank that while the other guy isn’t a Mormon, he is black.

  22. NoWireHangers: Please don’t make me think about McCain and his “senior spunk”.

    Poor Cindy. No one can imagine the horrors she’s endured.

  23. Toomush Infermashun says at 4:54 pm, November 4th, 2008

    smashtheduck : pace yourself - one finger at a time….

  24. Kev-O-Tron says at 4:55 pm, November 4th, 2008

    smashtheduck: “There’s only one whore on this splitscreen and it’s YOU Mr. Shabazz!”

    -All said with this indignant look on her face like she can’t get her “maverick” vibrator out of her clenched asshole.

    Gotta love it. This is such a fantastic day…

  25. sarahconnor says at 4:56 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Well don’t look now but Tim Robbins was denied access to the polls in NYC this morning - his name was removed from the list. He’s voted in the same place for 15 yrs.

    But whatever!

    (sorry this is that “registered-only” elitist rag the NY Times)

  26. Styrofoam Boots says at 4:57 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Godot: Cindy’s whacked out on happy pills anyways. Her brain is probably telling her that she’s just eating a polish sausage the wrong way. Y’know, one that’s been in the fridge a while but it’s still, like, edible.

  27. Doglessliberal says at 4:58 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Serolf Divad: yeah, and she notes how he has “all the money in the world” because of a Navy pension and “my dad was rich”. Man of the People WALNUTS!

  28. Styrofoam Boots: I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what drove her to the pills. It’s the only way she can make the nightmares go away.

  29. If Obama gets any sympathy vote out of his grandmother dying, Roberta better run and hide until the polls close.

  30. sanantonerose says at 5:11 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Styrofoam Boots: Don’t worry. Longevity skips a generation.

  31. AgentSparks says at 5:16 pm, November 4th, 2008

    I love me some Roberta McCain. I can’t help it.

  32. Local Moran says at 5:22 pm, November 4th, 2008

    sarahconnor:

    I’m sure that had nothing to do with his adamant plea to voters while sitting in on ‘Real Time’. Nothing at all.

    A twin sister? Lordy, wan Juan must have had him some VERY unhealthy Oedipal fantasies.

  34. sarahconnor says at 5:32 pm, November 4th, 2008

    Local Moran: Right, wait, whoa… does that means he’ll wind up in the slammer? Pluse he was in a movie with that uppity Morgan Freeman.

    Oh wait, for a minute there I forgot what day it was!

  35. “‘I sat in line more than an hour today and I’m nearly 100. We should have one day of voting and if these people are too weak to vote, too bad,” she said.”

    BADASS

  36. Local Moran says at 5:41 pm, November 4th, 2008

    sarahconnor:

    You betcha!
