"My friends..."
If you played the C&L Drinking Game of taking a shot every time Republican candidate John McCain used his favorite phrase "My friends," (not that we're endorsing such reckless behavior), I suspect you got a little toasted last night.

I wish I drank. But I'm not going to start now just to numb reality out.
L.A. Confidential @ 3:
I'll leave that to the Neocons, Republicans, and Wing Nuts. Seems to be their specialty.
I don't think I can stand going from a President that cannot string two coherent sentences together to one that cannot put two together without a "my friends". Where Do the Republicans find these people?
I noticed the same thing watching him last night and pointed it out to my wife. After a while it gets real annoying.

It's funny...
McCain used John Mellencamp for his theme song.
Nearly Got Sued.
Then he tried Springsteen..
Nearly Got Sued..
Even ABBA wouldn't let him use "Take a Chance on Me!"
So now he is using Johnny B. Goode from the Chuck Berry estate.. So apparantly there isn't a single musician in the last 50 YEARS, that will let McCain use their song.
What's the matter does Ross Perot still own the rights to "Crazy?"

I wonder how many drinks he'd had when that was snapped.

Looks like quite a few.
Tuesday's contributions to the McAKAlist, in 'high' definition:
McNominee - ‘cause I’m the last fool left that thinks he can win on chimpy’s record and policies.
McIWantToPrivatizeSocialSecurity – ‘cause I’m rich and I don’t need it, and it’ll make my greedy financial sector buddies happy. (Besides, I’ll be dead soon anyway.)
McIDontKnowNothinBoutNoEconomics – ‘cause bombin’ them ‘rainians’ll be much more fun.
McMor(m)on - potential running mate’s include Mitt the Robotic Mor(m)on.
McChange – the country’s trajectory off the cliff by puttin’ the pedal to the metal; sure we’ll go over the edge sooner, and the destruction will be more thoroughly spectacular, but hey – change!
McPuppet - one old dirty sock.
McCrepit’s – Thesaurus sampler: • shriveled • atrophied • shrunken • washed-out • wrinkled • dilapidated • broken-down • wretched • sleazy • inoperative • dilapidated etc.
Mcshitstain – not to be confused with the cute little dogs.
Keep McPileing on C&L'ers! The current McList numbers 464 and the entire list and/or links will be posted on McDamnthisisgettingtobeareallllyfuckinglonglistalmostlikeafulltimejob and/or Open threads Sunday, and the previous day’s contributions the rest of the week, John permitting.
“Shorter lists are funnier” generally holds true, and very well may re the McList. C&L’ers are diverse and eclectic, and I’ve enjoyed many lols, LOLs, LOL!s and Ha ha’s here. I’m reluctant to exclude any McEntry, ’cause they’re all funny/pointed/cathartic to varying degrees, and the sheer length of the entire list has a humorous quality of its own.
We are also generating denigrating McMemes, some of which may be useful, in a memie sort of way. The thuglicontards are very aware of the usefulness of denigrating memes, and it won’t hurt to put out a few of our own.
That being said, a Top 11, Dirty Dozen, etc. are considerations, for those (myself included, usually) who like things condensed to essentials.
Will update at my convenience or tolerable inconvenience on pertinent threads.

I remember the Alarm bells going off when Bush Jr showed up in the running back in 2000.
Reminds me of that scene in in Aliens at the end where the ship is getting ready to explode.
McInsane thinks “everybody” is his friend. It has also been proven that he takes candy from strangers, what with the lobbyist scandal. I trust that his mother never lets go of his hand when they go to Wal-Mart.
With friends like him...
Let him keep his 6 or 7 friends, and we'll take the White House.

"My friends, your jobs ain't coming back, the illegals ain't going home, there will be more wars, it's OK to torture suspected terrorists, I think there's a place for a privatized SS and we'll be in Iraq for another hundred years." If this guy gets elected, we won't be able to say "I told you so" because he'll have been the one to tell us!

HOW TO FIX THE RECESSION:
1) Release this drinking game to the public.
2) Alcohol sales go up 340000%
3) End of recession!
It makes me cringe every time he says that little phrase because it seems so phony. Every time he says it I worry more about the future because it's the kind of thing you hear just before someone screws you.
One nitpick: this isn't really a "mash-up"...it's more a collection/compendium. A mash-up by definition puts two different things together.

I should have taken my wifes advise when in 92 she said we she leave our country and get the hell out of here.
I found Joe Biden's use of "ladies and gentlemen" annoying at times, but this... Jesus Christ.

I like, but maybe move the first quote to include "my" as well!
mmmy freendsh... everytime i hear him say that it reminds me of Peter Lori *shudder*
He has been doing that "my friends" things the entire campaign. If he gets elected President and we turn it into a drinking game we will all be on a four year binge.
tyree @ 37:
I knew even then Washington D.C. had gone completely AWOL from reality but I suppose we have to learn the hard way.
i prefer an alternate game, bong hits for "straight talk". every time i here him say "straight talk" i wish i had a bong full from the old days because that is what i would take to believe him,
i know !your wondering whos got the balls to scrape mccains shorts off him when they stick to his ass! well they have trained atendents for that job, whove lost thier sence of smell!
willie @ 42:
Better idea, every time McLame says "my friends" HE should take a bong hit.

That's my reaction every time Chimpy winks at some flunky in the audience when he's at any podium and thinks he's being funny.
It just occurred to me how much more threatening that tic would sound if he was addressing one person at a time, and changing the phrase to "my friend", as in, "I've got something to tell you, my friend..."
Basically he's threatening us all with a smile on his face.

Good God what is wrong with Cindy's face? Did the plastic surgeons staple it on too tight? They looks terrible. She better be careful or ol' Mr. McCockaDoodleDoo will be McStruttingHisStuff around some new young thing.
Ah yes, "my friends". Reminds me of slippery travelling salesman Mr Haney on the show Green Acres. He was always trying to sell rusty old broken down farm equipment to the hapless Oliver and Lisa Douglas. McCain is trying to sell you Americans stuff too - only this time it is shiny war machines. Brand new lipstick on an old pig. With apologies to my old "friend", Arnold Ziffel, of course.
Cheers, "my friends"!
help from his fiends?
McCain's friends include Bush whose campaign staff called insane, his wife a drug addict, his adopted child illegitimate all of which Bush refused to condemn and which McCain apparently let slide. Sadly any and every career politician has to prepared to take personal attacks and dish them out too, but McCain never called-out anyone, as far as I know, on affronting his daughter (and his own humanity in becoming an adoptiive parent). Career politicians inherently have malleable principles, but I swear whatever principles McCain had have long subsumed to his personal ambiton and whatever is left has been twisted to his own egocentric goals. I can't see many citizens, however much they agree with him on politics considering him a "friend" in the common sense of the word and that makes his constant use of the term abusive and all mthe more pathetic.

How about "McBomb-bomb-bomb-bomb-bomb Iran"?
Four more years of denial and fantasy-land. This old fart actually thinks this country NEEDS four more years of this catastrophe. I'm always amazed at how many OTHER people think the same. Simply amazing.
If I were a die hard repug right now, I'd be crying in a corner somewhere. Not only have they lost their "conservative way", but they have mutated into a party of war mongers, hate mongers, and they have to live in a mental state of fantasy to believe all this crap that they stand for.
I'm sorry for them. I know the party of Ike wouldn't even know this new Nazi party that has sprung up from the roots of reagan. Thanks to such catalysts as gingrich and rove, the party of vannity, bor, limpballs, m. reagan, malkin, coultier, savage, ingram, snowball, beck and lessors...this party has changed into something that has represented an idealogy similar to that of the Civil War.
A sad day for republicans of the Eisenhower days. Hardly any resemblance at all.

i wish Barrak and Hillery would quit tearing down each other and start throwing crap at the cesspool that is the republicans. Fighting ourselves just give the slimy bastards a chance to cover things up.
We need to bring all the shit we can find on the retards to front and center.
With all the shit these crooked bastards have done in the past 20 years it should be no problem to show them to be the scum they are.

Mester Douglass, cahn I eeenterest you in Haney's egggstra speshul, top o the line . . .
If I drank, I might have been. "My friends" might be enough to lose him the election. I've noted this already, without anyone bringing it to my attention. Even in passing it grates on ones nerves. Imagine 4 years of it!!
Does Amerika really want 4 years of THAT??? Egad.
I can't be the only one who noticed--and was completely freaked out by--John McCain's "smiles" during his speech last night. You could almost *see* the [smile] directive in the teleprompter.
And it looked... odd; it never seemed to reach his eyes. It didn't look so much like a "I've-just nailed-the-party-nomination" smile, as it looked like a "please-don't-hit-me" feral grin.
Good grief, every time he says "my friends"? Are you serious?
That's as reckless as taking a drink every time Bush says something stupid!
No cases of alcohol poisoning? Sheesh, you people are scary...
the last president, reagan, said something like this
he SCREWED us all in a dry humping
THANK YOU for this clip! His "My Friends" line has made me want to puke every time I've heard it.
Sounds like a glad-handing bible-belt preacher who sells used cars on the side.....
ALL I CAN ADD ----
You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye on the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that theyd be your partner
Theyd be your partner, and...
Youre so vain, you probably think this song is about you
Youre so vain, Ill bet you think this song is about you
Dont you? dont you?
You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair
And that you would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and...
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and...
Well I hear you went up to saratoga and your horse naturally won
Then you flew your lear jet up to nova scotia
To see the total eclipse of the sun
Well youre where you should be all the time
And when youre not youre with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend, and...
McCane

Obama is black.
It's not racist. The way the name "Hussein" is used by Fox news, right wing pundits, and you no doubt, is race baiting.
That's not racist either. It's a smear tactic by Fox News to suggest Obama is a drug addict while downplaying Bush's admitted cocaine use. I tried it once, but I didn't like the smell.
The nuthouse you built.
