Why is CNN making a big deal out of McCain's phone call??
I was at the treadmill watching CNN at the local gym (thank God they don't have FOX) when I noticed that CNN was making a huge deal about the cell phone call that McCain received during a campaign speech (I supposed it was a campaign speech, the TV was on mute with the caption on). According to the "News" (coughing) report When he was talking to the crowd, his cell phone went off and he said: "it's not my wife... so I won't pick it up." CNN was like "aaaawww, how cute... he will only pick up if he's wife calls him... aaaaawww!!!

Doesn't that sound "staged" to you?? Come the f___ on... NO ONE in his campaign, even he's wife... didn't know that he was at a speech??? Please... why he even carry a cell phone for... during an f'n speech??? And they call this news?? :argh:

1. Imagine the headlines if he were a Democrat....
"Is McCain Too Old to Run? Senator Forgets to Turn Off Cell Phone!"

"As President, McCain Would Focus on Calls from Wife, Not on Keeping Us Safe!"

"McCain's Choice of Ring Tone Shows Elitist Insincerity!"

"McCain Refuses to Answer Call from Osama Bin Laden Himself! 'I won't pick it up,' says the Dove-ish Candidate!"
