I'm running, but I couldn't ignore this:
While speaking at a company called Thompson, which bills itself as "America's Master Gunmaker," John McCain declared:"I will follow Osama Bin Laden to the gates of hell and I will shoot him with your products."
We're all for hunting down Osama, but the current administration has failed to do that over the past several years.
It's a little difficult to imagine that John McCain would single-handedly take a gun made in New Hampshire, as president, chase across the world and personally find and shoot Osama to death.
Just what we need, another delusional cowpoke.
