Cotton McCain
By Cernig
I can't believe no-one's noticed the resemblance before. But with McCain speaking up for his paranoiac base by accusing Obama of outright treason and indulging in a little revisionist history, it's there for all to see. He's Cotton Hill brought to life.
A little, old and angry man, who views life through the filter of a single time in his life which he has edited in memory until it suits him.
Update: I knew I couldn't have been the first to notice. (Thanks, Blue Girl!)
...and a good friend (a veteran of Afghanistan) writes to point out that Cotton McCain is trying to follow in the steps of a paranoid president from Texas who has delusions of grandeur, but fails to recognize the obvious problems in front of him. "That's totally Dale Gribble".
I can see McCain on his porch yelling, "Hey! You kids get off my Surge!"

According to McCain, Obama is a "socialist," which has to stand as one of the funniest things I've seen lately.
