So how's this for bullshit.
Saxby Chambliss is our senator, right? He's a racist piece of shit, typical of the kind of people we usually appoint to public office around here. Back in 2001, he once said, "turn the sheriff loose and arrest every Muslim that crosses the state line."
He won his senate seat back in 2002 over the Democrat, Max Cleland. Cleland is confined to a wheelchair and lost both legs and one of his arms in Khe Sanh during Vietnam. During his campaign against Cleland, Chambliss aired an ad that questioned Cleland's commitment to homeland security and coupled that accusation with photos of Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. John McCain called the ads disgraceful and reprehensible.
Now... since there's a runoff between Chambliss and Democrat Jim Martin... John McCain is on live television campaigning for the guy.
It's got to be hard to be John McCain. I don't think I've ever seen someone take it in the ass so much for his party's sake.
