McCain explains why his boot was on a different foot (it's an innocent mistake)

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Thursday clarified that his walking boot is on his right foot, adding that he switched it to his left to "give it a break."

McCain caused confusion when he posted a photo from his daughter Meghan's wedding in which his walking boot was on his left foot. He had previously been seen wearing it on his right foot after he suffered a minor tear in his right Achilles tendon.

I figured somebody just posted a reversed image...just to break the internet.

Well he doesn’t know which party he is aligned with either. Nothing new.

One often uses a cane on the strong side. It shifts the weight off the weak side.

(Nonetheless, not relevant to the flawed world of McCain.)

Yep, when I broke my arm years ago I would frequently rotate the cast from my left to right arm /sarc.

I remember first hand the end years of Strom Thurmond. Power hungry Ken Doll staffer types run the show. They are senator behind the senator at that stage. Jets, booze, expense accounts, sexual trists, fine dining, cocktail parties, etc....McCain is no longer in charge.

Okay. Admittedly I have no experience in that area.

Boot on the wrong foot! Head up his arse! Same-o, same-o! F*ck McNuts!

[rawcatslyentist]

Looks like they had to switch sides on his ankle tracking device. Either it was defective or Juan sabotaged it.

[Thibodeaux]

Point of order

Why is McCain under arrest?

The FReeper dogma is lacking in any logic

McCain is a poorly designed, poorly executed kitchen appliance.
I care not what happens to it.
It is slime.
Pond scum.
Feces.
On its best days.

[Bluebird Singing]

It doesn’t make sense.

Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Right, Juan. I believe you.

[ArtDodger]

This boot is made for op-in’ (photo op)
That’s just what I’ll do
One of these days you see I
Pulled the wool right over you!

[samtheman]

Liars lie. That is what they do.

And the media covers up. That’s what they do.

Is it just me, or does that make absolutely no sense?

It makes no sense.
1. If he wanted to give his right foot a break he would simply not have warn the walking boot at all.
2. That he even addressed this in the MSM is stunning.

[SoFloFreeper]

Thurgood Marshall was the same way. I recall reading he spent most of his day watching soap operas while clerks wrote “his” opinions.

I have a friend who also ripped an Achilles tendon. It happened because he was taking massive doses of cortisone. the cortisone weakens the attachment between tendons and bone. I suspect that McCain's cancer treatments are much worse than he is revealing, and he is taking high doses of cortisone to cover up some of the symptoms.

I must acknowledge, though, that my friend was never so addled from his treatments that he forgot which leg hurt. It may be that Mc/Cain's dementia is also at work here.

warn => worn

Arizona needs a break from both Senators. Goldwater in the grave is better than McCain and Flake above ground.
