Will you still vote McCain after you heard him singing "bombs" to Iran?

    Republican 2008 presidential hopeful John McCain crooned the words Bomb Iran to a Beach Boys' tune in joking response to a question about any possible U.S. attack over Tehran's suspected nuclear weapons program.

    "That old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran ... bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, " the Vietnam War veteran warbled softly to the band's "Barbara Ann" when he was asked when the United States would send an "airmail message" to Iran.

    Would you still vote for him?

    He said it in lieu of the gentleman's question.

    I wouldn't vote for a RINO no matter what they sung...unless they are up against clinton or osamabama.

    McCain is a complete non-starter for me after his and Russ Feingold's joint attack on the First Amendment.

    However, after that song, I think he might have a future in entertainment.

    Beats me.
    I don't know how someone who sings about bombing another nation and thinks this is a joke can be decent enough to be President.
    But again, the bar has been lowered considerably since Bush II took over the presidency.

    I absolutely agree!

    I mean joking/bombing

    He should have been serious & sung about wiping Iran off the map!

    Then it wouldn't "Beats me." would it?

    You are obviously too young to remember Ronald Reagan, our greatest President of the last century.

    Luckily, you're not able to vote in U.S. election. Why don't you fill out your location field?
