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 Nacho.

The Nacho is younger than John McCain.

For the first seven years of his life, John McCain lived in a cold, dark, lonely, nacho-less world. (I think I read that on the Internet - so it must be true.) He described this period as “the worst time of his life” - although he might have been referring to that whole Vietnam thing… where, coincidentally, he also was deprived of Nachos).

John McCain takes a hard stand against illegal immigration - calling for tougher border security and more careful screening at points of entry into the United States. Thank goodness he was just a mere lad at the time of my hero Ignacio “Nacho” Anaya’s brave and noble journey to the United States.

(Incidentally, for my peso, the above restaurant serves the best Mexican food in New York.)

  1. He may be old, but his immigration policy is better (IMO) then most republicans… after all he is from a border state.

  2. Brilliant site! No wonder it’s a net celebrity already.

    I don’t know what’s funnier: your posts or the clumsy attempts by desperate conservatives to prove you wrong… Gotta love these comments.

    Some suggestions of things younger than McCain:

    Fanta
    Guernica (both the bombing and the painting)
    Jane Fonda
    Radio in Canada
    All the four Beatles
    Jet fighters
    Life magazine as we know it (not the previous incarnation)
    80 of the 81 Oscar Best Actor winners (all except Henry Fonda in 1981)
    Both the CIA and the KGB
    Both Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky
    And my personal favorite: Chuck Norris!

  4. I’m a New Yorker, and I’m always on the lookout for great Mexican food! However, I can’t quite make out the street sign in your photo. Where is this heavenly restaurant (that is no doubt also younger than John McCain) located?

  5. It’s on the northeast corner of Ludlow and Stanton Sts…. name of the place is El Sombrero. It’s been there long before that neighborhood was uber-trendy.

  8. Hmm, best is debatable. Cheapest? Probably. Gotta love the to-go margaritas, though.

  9. Oh.My.God.
    I could never be able to live without nachos.
    I don’t care if I had never heard of them.
    I would not be able to live without fucking nachos.
    Seriously.

  10. Fajitas, and Tex-Mex as a cuisine are both younger than John McCain. Search for the history of Tex-Mex articles from the Houston Chronicle for more details.

  11. I seem to remember McCain sponsoring a bill granting amnesty to illegal immigrants. Imagine that, a liberal blog getting its facts screwed up.
