Would John McCain Take the Oath of Office in Flemish?

Submitted by Howard Beale on July 15, 2008 - 3:45pm

John McCain certainly knows how to rub salt in the wounds of Missourians suffering the slings and arrows of a GOP-ruined economy.

Just a day after Missourians learned that Anheuser-Busch would be sold to Belgian firm InBev, McCain promptly comes to St. Louis --the home of Anheuser-Busch-- for a mega-dollar reception at the vast estate of the former United States ambassador to, of all countries, Belgium.

Notwithstanding the fact that John and Sindy McCain will reap millions of dollars from the Anheuser-Busch sale, their advisors would be wise to warn them not to celebrate too loudly about the deal as they rub elbows with the former diplomat in the STL.

Ted Drewes?

Submitted by TeresaJ on July 16, 2008 - 10:12am.

Reports Tuesday night indicate that the $57,000 per couple fundraiser McCain (son of Cain?) attended in St. Louis had only chocolate cookies for dessert, and the party was forced to forage in South St. Louis at Ted Drewes' Frozen Custard stand afterwards, thereby causing Ashley, Michaela, Ethan and Bradley to wait as the Secret Service bullied their way to the front of the line for McCain's chocolate concrete.

Geez. For that kind of money, couldn't they have phoned, ordered takeout, and sent a driver?
