John McCain will veto every single beer

We all need a good laugh.

John McCain will veto every single beer

Postby Mills Chapman » Tue Jun 10, 2008 7:25 pm

Last time I posted a CNN video link, some people were unable to open it. We'll see if it works this time.

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politi ... o.beer.cnn (see the 42-second mark)

I don't know if it is the same in other English-speaking countries, but in the U.S., "to veto a bill" means that the government leader is rejecting a spending/budgeting decision by the legislature.

you can only say that IF he gets elected.

my money is on Obama, and he's nothing like the old geezer, both this one and the one in office now.

A promising start for an Irishman ... or maybe it' the Bush connection continuing .....


Clan McCain - (Mac Uí Catháin, McCain) The Clan McCain has it's origins as the branch of the Clann Uí Catháin (O'Cahan) who lived and operated east of the Bann River in North Antrim as early as 1270, with descendants still living in the vicinity and worldwide. Their sphere of influence encompassed the area known as "The Route" (Rúta), particularly surrounding the Bush River (Buaise), its valley and north to Dunseverick on the coast. They held the castle of Dunseverick as their seat from circa 1610 to 1651. They descend from Manus Catha Duinn Uí Catháin (Manus of the battle of Down, killed in 1260), and along with their association with the Bush River were known as Clann Manus na Buaise (Clan Manus of Bush River). They were tightly allied and related to the Eoghnacht clans, particularly the Uí Naill (O'Neil), and later with the Irish Mac Dónaill (Eoin Mhóir) and the Earls of Antrim. This newly forming association is being structured to bring to light the truth behind our heritage. We promote the collection and preservation of the history and culture of the Gaelic race.

The coat of arms for the McCain Clan is three fish :lol:
