There are two interesting things that came out of John McCain's last appearance on The O'Reilly Factor. One, he clearly lied about voting for Bush in 2000. Arianna Huffington said earlier this week that he told a table full of guests at a dinner they had together that he did not vote for Bush in the 2000 general election. Since then, there have been four other witnesses that corroborated Huffington's story to The Washington Post, New York Times and LA Times.
That's part of the reason why McCain looks and sounds so nervous below, which leads to the second interesting point. He has entered the maniacal laughter competition with Hillary Clinton. His laugh below is so forced and awkward that it's a little painful to look at. So, check out the video below and then tell us who has the weirder laugh, McCain or Hillary:

46. Yes, Captain Negative we dumb rednecks should have realized that Obama could not possibly have made a mistake, as usual, he is just wiser and smarter than the rest of us and in his advanced mind was thinking of states we would never even consider.
Now, it's easy to check if he's visited all those "states" like he said he did, so you may want to just double check that.
You come up with that lame explanation and call the AntiObots desperate? Please.

47. Yeah! Obama gets the infamous, "free ride" on the laugh thing! Damned Muslim!
Hillary cackles.
Mc Cain "mumble-laughs" as he dissembles.
Obama always remains poised and his critics can't stand it.

50. i have to agree with P.
The level of adoration of an untested politician who has cast 130 present votes in Il and 168+ present votes in the Senate.
Let's not forget the 6 times he claimed he pressed the wrong button.
How about his association with all of those EXTREMISTS. First he didn't hear the hatred spewing, then he did. Then he didn't get financial support then he did and then it was proved to be much more than he admitted.
His 143 days of experience and lack of standing firm on the most recent issues of Wright, Rezco and Ayers?
All I read about is negativity, when it is clear that it is the media that is negative.
Then I hear racism, and read the most disgusting posts from Obama's supporters. Did they ever hear about the Clinton Foundations amazing work in Harlem who voted nearly unaminously for Hillary?
To all who are voting against Hillary to the benefit of Obama, know there are millions who will do the same against Obama in the GENERAL election.
Search "Obama Exposed" and see just a tiny bit of what is coming to him when the Republicans get a hold of him.
To those bitter Hillary haters trying to drum up the nonsense about Hillary's past, Snopes.com has disproven all of those myths, including your favorite Foster.
Cenk, you need a new job, your blog is blah.

Yes, millions of bitter women will turn on the Democratic party because they didn't get their way.
"Gender politics" is taking a hit from its own proponents. You are cutting off your noses to spite your faces.
Voting againsgt your own interests is usually a republican affliction. They do it out of ignorance. You do it out of spite.

53. I've mosty stopped coming onto these lockstep blogs because they're really just like clicking onto Obamacampaign.com. But now AOL is weirdly censoring comments on its other blogs. They continue to post all this racial hysteria but woudn't post this:
Saw Hill's Saturday NY speech with Charlie Rangle, Congresswoman "Nita" and Chelsea onstage. She was GREAT, positive, gets all the issues, and funny! She said she's really been enjoying hearing what Americns have to say and NOT WATCHING TV. The crowd LOVED it, cheering and laughing because they know she's been vilified and unfairly ganged up on by the press.
(AND THEY LOVED HER LAUGH, Cenk, and if this is the best you've got you should be writing it in your diary.)
The Dem candidate has to win over enough undecided and moderates to win. Hill could. the Superdelegates are the ones not getting it. OBama would be complaining abt Mich and FL if he'd won them. He and his supporters have played VERY Negative against Hill, the biggest and most effective being rac-baiting. Well we aint never had no woman prez before neither!!!! But it's about the issues! i
So many posters in favor of obama are writing on these AOl blogs that only racists vote for Hillary. I guess that makes ALL those who don't misogynists! (Except it doesn't, and Hill supporters aren't all over the place saying it does!) It's sad, pathetic, and just plain EVIL the way the race-baiting has grown and grown. The making fun of how Hillary looks, talks, laughs, whatever, has been going on since day 1. But that's not negative?? GROW UP!!!!!!!!! Hillary is a vibrant, articulate, passionate, intelligent, compassionate woman.

54. No dear Captain Negative, I am voting against Obama our of love for my country.
Obama does not love his country, actually he and his wife hate it and all the white people in it. He is anti Jew, anti Gay, anti women, and Anti American.
He has no experience as a leader and shows us his disregard with his rediculous voting record.
His lies and flip flops on the Pro Obama little issues have caused me to fear this puppet candidate.
He has never tried to work with the Republican party which I respect because I believe that devided we fail.
RFK Jr., the only respectable Kennedy supports Hillary. WHY?
Because of her work on preserving our environment, her work for our military veterans, for her work for a decent wage for everyone, for her work for women's reproductive rights.
What has Obama worked for? Aid for Africa and Obama
Why hasn't his advisor who he sent to Odigna for his campaing been fired? Because he believes his church tucc.org mission "Africa First"

You think you are a elitist because you can add your toes and fingers and come up with 20? But you forget you screwed up the state count with Obama. And as a Private Investigator, you will never be accepted in the elite crowd no matter how much you look down your nose at people. Obama is the elitist, who looks down at the common working american and supporting him will not turn you from being an idiot into a Harvard Grad., no matter how hard you try.
And fellow americans, if you elect Obama to the White House, while Obama denies he is a Muslim, half his relatives;aunts, uncles, grandparents, brothers, sisters and cousins, are Muslims. So, if you have no problem having that many Muslims that connected to the White House, vote for Obama.

Glad to see that you held your own. Just remember when the lefties brand you a racist reply that you are actually a realist. Also, ask the lefties what do you call a class of people who vote 90%+ for a candidate solely because of Color-fication as opposed to qualification?

Oh dear, step away from the sauce do it quickly while perhaps there is still a chance for you to safe yourself. Whatever you do, do not pay attention to the Italian boy encouraging you; clearly, he is worst off than you are.
I am fascinated by all your assumptions regarding Obama, his wife and even Caroline Kennedy, Maria Shriver and their uncle.
If indeed you are a real Democrat that supports Hillary, I cannot understand how it is possible that you can be so blind about Obama, their ideals and policies are very similar.
Get your head on straight and whatever you do, stop listening to those on the right who are so desperately trying to make Obama look like the bad person in the movie. Have you not been paying attention for the past 7 ½ years?
Furthermore, as I read your post closely I can only come up with one logical conclusion. Either you are not a Democrat, or you are not a woman that happens to be a Democrat. If you think Obama is Anti-American, Anti-Women’s rights you are in for a world of hurt if McCain should somehow pull a victory in November.

58. Did John McCain lie? Well, as Rev. Jeremiah Wright said, politicians, including Barack Hussein Obama, will say whatever they have to say to get elected.
