That thing… that thing right there, by your foot. It is my jaw…
“I certainly do not want to discuss that issue,” the Arizona senator said aboard his “Straight Talk Express” bus in Ohio when asked about his views on health insurance covering the medication.
But the off-message topic was raised from a member of McCain’s own team: national co-chairwoman Carly Fiorina, who had said earlier women often express frustration over the fact many health insurance plans cover Viagra but not birth control medication.
“Let me give you a real, live example, which I’ve been hearing a lot about from women. There are many health insurance plans that will cover Viagra but won’t cover birth control medication. Those women would like a choice,” she said Monday.
McCain shows his ignorance on the topic and from the video, he squirms and winces his way through the questioning and sums up that he does not know enough about the issue to give an informed answer. The list of things McCain admittedly doesn’t know anything about is becoming impressively long – economics, computers, the internet and now health insurance.
Evidently the Straight Talk Express bus is shorter than the others.

The real story here is that vapid, traitorous gasbag corporate shillwhore Carly Fiorina and her pleas for “choice” in matters having to do with women and reproductive freedom. Choice? Really? Women want a choice, Carly? Have you mentioned this to your candidate? Must be some AWFUL SWEET TAX CUTS in your future, darlin’, to be worth selling out your sex to shill for the Straight Talk Express To The Nineteenth Century.
Fiorina was an unbridled disaster at Hewlett-Packard, causing its stock to plummet and making horrible and unpopular decisions while outsourcing thousands of jobs to Mumbai. She’s the poster child for callous, cold-blooded Corporate Fuckhole America and I’m glad McCain keeps putting her face on his candidacy; especially when she complains about women wanting “choices.”
Whore.

PS – Love your site, love the comic (McCain’s bomb-head is BRILLIANT), and we’ll be ‘rolling you AND banner-linking you over at The Daily Clusterdouche as soon as our Web Monkey (literally a Rhesus monkey on a 6-month work-study pass named Mr. Syllabus) has his coffee and morning feces-throw.
Very well done indeed, TCD!
