That is one tidbit to be gleaned from John McCain’s massive medical records dump:
John McCain today released 1,173 pages of medical documents to prove that at the age of 71 – having survived war wounds, torture by the Vietnamese and three bouts of melanoma – he is fit to be president.
The verdict on the Republican nominee-in-waiting is that he appears to be in good, if not perfect, health. Doctors say he has a strong heart and, despite having skin lesions removed as recently as February, a much-reduced risk of being killed by cancer.
People looking for reasons to oppose McCain would be better off looking at his position on illegal immigration than his buttocks; the latter are unremarkable.

Nishi commented every day for about a week that the unsealing of these medical records was going to doom McCain’s candidacy. I haven’t seen her around here since the records were released. She is probably feeling a little bit like Gerardo Rivera did after Al Capone’s vault was opened.

I’m kinda sad for nishi today. She’s been looking forward to this for a long time.

Nah, she’ll just make up a lie about what she said before.

She made a complete fool of herself again last night, so she’s probably licking her wounds today.

Unremarkable buttocks, perhaps.
But does he have sugartits?
There’s the elephant in the room.
Comment by JD on 5/23 @ 2:26 pm #
McCain cannot have sugartits. He might have some man boobs, or moobs. Sugartits, not so much.
nishit will just alter reality so that this never happened.

Cute, sane, rich, and owns a liquor store (okay, a beer distributor).
Looks like John beats Barry on this metric of judgment, too.

It’s not because you measure fifty, twenty, thirty-four
It’s not because your mama runs a chain of liquor stores
It’s not because your daddy is the richest man in town
It’s just that I’ve grown used to you and having you around…
Regards,
Ric

For real I don’t get the fetish about immigration. Not you, K, this woman. Good Lord her priorities are wacky. But I’ve been on a big horchata kick lately.
Comment by Lisa on 5/23 @ 6:36 pm #
I sense a Rovian plot here. McCain will appear this fall in a pair of close fitting Diesel jeans and reveal that he in fact has a quite alluring set of buttocks.
An October surprise, if you will.

It’ll be hard to get a good pic if Lindsey’s around though.

I hate to be a sexist, or objectify men, or anything like that.
But if we were voting on the basis of ass . . . O my hands would be tied.

Good God, look how Malkin writes these days, look how loaded her language is. She could use a good Jeff sermon on intentionalism. She could, that is, if she were susceptible to reason. Why did you link that Karl?
Comment by Karl on 5/24 @ 12:36 am #
peter,
I linked MM because she has the highest-traffic blog that was covering McCain’s “backsliding” on illegal immigration (John Hawkins was the other). I didn’t really consider it backsliding because I always thought McCain was BS-ing when he was talking about “getting the message.” And it happened to be a fresh post when I was looking for an example of an issue-based disagreement, rather than the DNC-nishidiot meme of not voting for McCain because he’s old and thisclose to dying. As such, it increased the odds that this post would get better placement at sites like Memeorandum. That’s the long answer, which can be shortened to “traffic.”

I hear Obama smokes like an Indonesian cooter. Have his medical records been released yet?

No they haven’t alp.

Right on. I guess I just found the sudden transition of going from your dulcet tones to her hissing and spitting a little jarring.
