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.

The guy across from me at Panera Bread.

The guy across from me at Panera Bread is younger than John McCain.

As I sit here, using (at best) four fingers to pound away on the keyboard of my Macbook Pro, I’m noticing that a man who looks to be in his late sixties just walked in…. carrying, no joke, his own cushion for the seat! God only knows what’s going on in his body that creates the need for him to bring a seat cushion from home to Panera Bread but, if there was ever a sign of age, this sure is one of them.

I don’t know - this might launch another barrage of emails calling me “ageist”, but I for one don’t want my President bringing his ‘roid pillow to peace negotiations at Camp David.

  4. The Kristallnacht attacks on Jews in Germany are younger than John McCain.

    McCain may not have much to say on that subject, but he “hates the gooks.”

  9. why not make a section saying that every president ever is younger that mccain?

    and I think it is hilarious that he picked an even older running mate…does he need the experience?
