13. To be fair, your list is a tad innaccurate.

McCain was born in 1936.

-Communism is older than McCain--the Bolsheviks started calling themselves Communists in 1917.
-Plutonium existed long before it was discovered.
-The big band/swing era started in 1935
-The first electronic television systems were invented in the 1920s.
-Skyscrapers are older (the Empire State Building was finished in 1931).
-The Big Bang was first hypothesized in the late 1920s.
-Nylon was invented in 1935.
-Dubble Bubble bubble gum was invented in 1928
-The Jitterbug is only older if it refers to 'east coast swing.' The term was around in the 20s and the Lindy Hop was invented in the late 20s.

15. 1936 BC or AD?..........

[laconicsax]

22. Wikipedia says AD...for now.

[readmoreoften]

18. Communist Manifesto published by the Communist League in 1848.

Just sayin... at least 160 years old.

[laconicsax]

23. By using 1917 as a starting point, it makes McCain look almost as old.

[KSinTX]

19. Well, is it just possible McCain, like plutonium, existed long before being discovered? :)

[laconicsax]

21. If McCain really is older than plutonium, then he's literally older than dirt.

[KSinTX]

24. No, no - I didn't say he's older than plutonium

It was "LIKE plutonium," he may have existed before discovery. Not literally either, sarcastically.

[laconicsax]

26. You didn't say he wasn't older than plutonium either.

[KSinTX]

28. True. You didn't say dirt was newer than the Frisbee either. Your point?

[TheCowsCameHome]

14. Rumor has it he helped dig the Grand Canyon as a kid.

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

16. John McCain: The Only Survivor of the Big Bang.

[laconicsax]

27. Who needs a large hadron collider when McCain can just tell you how it all went down?

[readmoreoften]

17. How is communism younger than McCain? He's over 160?

:shrug:

[L. Coyote]

20. McCain is younger than communism. We need one more. Las Vegas?

[Snarkoleptic]

25. McSame is so old...he farts dust.

[texasleo]

29. McCain was a waiter at the last supper

[alfredo]

30. He got stiffed too.

[Bluebear]

31. Please, his birth certificate is in hieroglyphics

:)

[Ikonoklast]

32. It's a shame that we resort to stereotyping older people

He can't help it if he's 'slipping'.
Or a Republic willing to do or say anything in order to become President.
Or lacking a moral compass.

Or just bat-shit insanity that has nothing to do with age.

[LBJDemocrat]

33. This is a disgusting thread.

Do I really need to point out why?

[Fireweed247]

34. I agree

I appreciate older people because they remember when we were a great country and have a perspective we can all benefit from at this point in time especially.

Just because McCain is a psychopath is no excuse to bash older people, it makes us look pathetic.

Look at this video of people supporting electing a new Congressman in their district, holding signs demanding Impeachment...guess what- they are older and they are a helluva lot more motivated that the younger folks these days!
