McCain Calls High School Student 'A Little Jerk'

thinkprogress.org — An unflinching John McCain was told Tuesday by New Hampshire high school students he might be too old to be president and too conservative to be respected. ... “Thanks for the question, you little jerk,” McCain joked back to one student who asked the 71-year-old about his age. “You’re drafted.”

  • penguinomint, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13I liked McCain's response.
  • sfpfc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I clicked the link thinking it was really bad but after watching it I wonder why are they making a big deal of it...they were both clearly joking and I thought his answer was pretty good.
  • thebaron2, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Seriously - it's what I would expect from anyone else if I was calling them out on there age. Have a sense of humor folks, sheesh.
  • ubergoose, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7it was a joke...
  • blorc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6It's funny to see people respond to the ThinkProgress text without watching the video. The video portrays a much different tone and much more lengthy answer than what TP reports in text.

    TP might as well just start Belair'ing and Rickrolling their readers if all they're going to do is post obviously slanted ***** like this, since the reactions you get are about equivalent.
  • demicritter, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Excuse me, but you're Exhibit A as to why the public is so goddam ignorant.
  • inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I'm sorry, the correct response would have been "go ***** yourself". We would have also accepted "STFU noob".

  • demicritter, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2The kid should have been bitch-slapped. 16 years old with skidded briefs, the kid was totally disrespectful. You're the one in need of drug testing and counseling.
  • shawnfassett, on 10/10/2007, -8/+5Drug.Test.McCain.
  • hawkeye17, on 10/10/2007, -11/+2Lady's and Gentleman...I give you Exhibit A as to why McCain is NOT Presidential material. The last thing this country needs is another President with short temper and not many brain cells(he's getting owned by kids lol).
