John McCain offers Barack Obama a cabinet post

You may well be correct. I just hope it will not be too destructive.

Obambi will get a cabinet spot right after McCain creates a new cabinet post called Secretary of White House Lawn Cutting.

It was indeed a joking, tongue-in-check question. The same question was asked of Obama in regard to McCain, and of course he obligingly replied “yes” also.

If you had taken the trouble to at least have taken a glimpse at this forum you would have realized that the question was pure fluff.

Cool it.

McCain offering the floundering junior senator table scraps in a paternal, “there there” tone IS funny. It’s just another poke at Obama’s lysing ego bag.

McGenius also said he would hire a pro-choice VP! HA!!

I bet that as a person he is the kind you wouldn’t mind hanging out with,

back in the day, the guy that had money and 'connections' was a useful TOOL...

besides that, no one would bother to p!ss on him if he spontaneously combusted...

John M should prolly hole up somewhere for a couple months, lest his mouth snatch defeat from the jaws of victory...

Conservatives glom on one statement and totally ignore the repeatedly conservative views expressed over and over. The absurdly biased interviewers tried their damndest to make him accept leftist positions and he always returned to a conservative statement.

This is not a joking matter. McCain is a Democrat. His nomination showed that that we have basically a one party system. McCain supports massive amnesty. He opposed the Cronyn amendment. He fought for CFR. The list goes on.

McCain should appoint Barry as .... DRUG CZAR.
After all he's got a lot of experience there. In fact, that's his strong suit.

Folks upset at McCain are not getting it. This was a forum set up to be ‘nonpartisan’. McCain is showing respect but at the same time showing who’s the top dog.

Of course McCain can pat Obama on the head for his ‘community service’, but at the same time we all know that’s not a very responsible job.

Those of us who know the nefarious aspects of ACORN and the leftwing ideology behind ‘community oganizing’ will have to get the message out another way. McCain will not push that rope, it would just be churlish to diss him in the context of this discussion on volunteerism.

If it would cause an Illinois Gov. to appoint a GOP senator in place of Obambi, this might make sense. The assumption is that Rod "Rezko" Blagojevich could somehow be indicted soon, forced to resign, and get replaced by a GOP candidate in a special election.

Otherwise, appointing Obambi would be a return to the B.S. of GWB's "New Tone".

AmbASSador to Zimbabwe. This might be a good way for McC. to give Obambi a real job [/s].
