Just in time for Father's day, John McCain offers golf gear on his site...You have to love the irony of this. I mean, I know that Tiger Woods has done a lot to reform the image of the sport, but if you want to convey OLD MAN, what better way to do it than golf equipment. Not to mention ELITIST OLD MAN.
OK...I do not have a whole lot to say here, because the McCain site says it all. Read it here. And I can not really top the article done by Rick Spilman at TPM I would only point out that McCain is offering African American and Arab American Campaign Items...hmmm...those must really be flying off the shelf. After reading a great diary here about how the McCain team seems unable to build a professional webpage (this far beyond McCain stealing Obama's brand identity), it seems the problems go much deeper than merely incompetence in building a web page...NO SIR-REE this is unabashed BUSH style incompetence! We will try to sell snow to Aleuts, and we will blow it as we do it. This might even top the lime green jello moment. BTW, read the comments at the McCain site, they are priceless.
UPDATE 1: I forget to mention, John McCain must not be a patriot, because I distinctly remember the Prezider saying he gave up golf as proof of his sacrifice during this great conflict.
UPDATE 2: I guess people are not actually making it to the McCain site, where crazy satirists are hi-jacking his site. Read it now before the McCain site takes it down. You will be glad you did. Here is an example
I like the golf pack, but why no yacht tarp? June 9, 2008

Sure this pack of John McCain labeled shwag is nice, and when I'm out on the course I use it as a subliminal message to remind my caddy that I don't support minimum wage. But what I'm really waiting for is the John McCain yacht tarp. WTF, Johnny Mac, my boat is getting wet! Thank you.
