Sanity seems to be missing the point. It's not just that McCain made a bad, insesitive joke, about an awkward adolecent girl... No it's about the temperment of his entire party. The fact that they were SO ready to jump all over this young lady who couldn't fight back. (Honestly, what is an 18 year old girl going to do to fight against the slander of a couple hundred old white men in their late 60's, when they stand around like a group of teenage boys making nasty ass comments about something she couldn't change? Say, like McCain who was in his 60's at the time...) Yeah, he apoligized. But the fact that the creeps did this in the first place tells you volumes about both their maturity level, their sense of appropriateness in public, and their general mean spiritedness. (That, and their mothers all dress them funny.) What is it, do you suppose, about being a party republican that makes a person so dispicable, on a fundamental level?
