Things younger than Republican Presidential candidate (oh, and did I forget to mention war hero?) John McCain

Am I being “age-ist”? Maybe. But maybe not. The world is a pretty complicated place right now and I’m thinking that it’s not such a great time to elect our oldest President ever. So sue me.

“If I put in three or four 18-hour, 20-hour days in a row, I’m not sharp. It’s just a fact, I’m more sharp if I get a little rest.” (J. McCain, 8/9/08)


John McCain Says He Needs More Sleep.

Psst - John, the presidency is a really, really hard job that sometimes demands really long hours. You might want to think about that before, you know, you accept the nomination of your party.

(God, this stuff practically writes itself.)

  1. C’mon, he was watching the State of the Union address.

    OF COURSE he fell asleep.

    It’s not like watching Wheel of Fortune or something…

    yes, but the quote was from YESTERDAY….. maybe i should find a different image - one that doesn’t make the quote seem old.

  3. What gets me is that there are those who think this guy is fit to lead this country. He’ll definitely be asleep when his 3am crisis call comes and we’ll all be blown to kingdom come while he’s getting his “old man’s” sleep.

  5. I’m pretty sure Dubya gets 9-10 hours of sleep everyday.

  6. 5,
    But the question is, how much sleep does Cheney get?

  7. Well, to look at it another way. Ronald Reagan was known for taking naps as well during the day while at the White House. Take that for what it may be worth.

  8. “He’ll definitely be asleep when his 3am crisis call comes”

    No, I think he’ll be up using the bathroom.
