- CatalystDM, on 10/12/2007, -48/+130OH MY GOD DIGG. Shut up about Ron Paul for the love of god. Just because he's a republican who isn't corrupt doesn't mean he's Jesus reborn. He's still a republican.
Go ahead and digg me down. Please. But Digg's unnatural obsession with Ron Paul will soon make even Ron Paul himself a little wary. - xekko, on 10/12/2007, -19/+91Countries are way too easily invaded nowadays.
- Winters, on 10/12/2007, -16/+62I'm no fan of McCain at all, but if you watch the video, it's really not all that bad.
Though he was totally in the wrong key. - louise12345, on 10/12/2007, -41/+80This man makes lite the destruction and death of thousand if not millions of innocents. He is truly unworthy of representing America.
Get out McCain!! Take the rest of your neocon thugs with you.
HIT THE STREETS IN PROTEST PEOPLE! GET THESE PEOPLE OUT!! - ScornForSega, on 10/12/2007, -48/+87What? This is a good thing.
Every time Giuliani and McCain shoot themselves in the foot, it means there's that much more of a chance for Ron Paul to not get owned in the primaries. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -14/+52I lost all respect for John McCain back in 2000 when he bent over and took it up the butt from GW Bush.
- CannedMango, on 10/12/2007, -5/+37It's a joke when Howard Stern or Jeff Foxworthy says it.
It's international tension when a ranking politicians says it. - 28dayslater, on 10/12/2007, -10/+39I know it was ***** hilarious. Bomb Bomb Kill Kill, funny as ***** hell. Great joke, and you have good taste in jokes. In presidents as well. It's too bad you couldn't vote for Bush a third time, eh?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -11/+36Its not a joke when we should be IMPROVING RELATIONS WITH THE MIDDLE EAST AND SHOW WE ARE NOT AN OPEN THREAT TO THEM.
- dominasian, on 10/12/2007, -6/+31its actually a pretty good pun
- Nougat, on 10/12/2007, -5/+29@antoniojvr (#6246449)
It was a joke, yes. One he was making to mirror the attitude of the warmonger in the audience who was posing the question. Responsible world leaders do not attempt to mollify ignorant aggressiveness in the citizenry by mirroring it, even in jest. McCain had the opportunity to rebuke that attitude with a reasonable and educated reply. Not only did he fail to do so, he chose to play to the crowd. - nuttybar, on 10/12/2007, -3/+23south park doesnt even need to try to mock politics anymore
- DryvBy, on 10/12/2007, -15/+32Sorry, I have a job. I don't really care what he says. 1st Amendment applies to everyone in America.
- HappyScrappy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18He didn't stay up late. This parody (or whatever) of Barbara Ann was widely played on national radio during the Iran Hostage Crisis in 1979.
- Sunuva, on 10/12/2007, -6/+22It wasn't funny.
- xekko, on 10/12/2007, -22/+37McCain should be scorned for making a glib joke like this. Can you imagine Obama or Clinton making these comments? They'd be vilified! But McCain "was just trying to add a little humor to the event", so he gets away with it.
- SilverBack101, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17At least he isn't pretending to be black like MC Rove and his posse.
- dylantea, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18Go Go Gadget Colonialism !!
You don't joke about invading countries. Afghanistan and Iraq are hardly funny. I used to have a lot of respect for McCain, and in the last few weeks it has completely disapeared.
Funny thing again, about supporting an occupying nation like Israel, and the way that whenever a "Third world" country seeks to get nuclear power, the US freaks out, labels them as nuclear weapons monsters (when we are the only people dumb enough to have used them) and then bars progress. Maybe what is really at hand here is a desire to keep poorer countries poor and obedient. - Cordier, on 10/12/2007, -14/+26The death of others has no meaning to one with blind ambition. It's all about McCain and always has been...
- PATSCRU, on 10/12/2007, -22/+33it's not shameless...it's sadly honest, and a once respected republican that once stood by what he thought was just and could not be swayed by the left or right has sadly fallen by the way of the big neocon machine, and has lost all respect for it.
- ronito, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13If this gets any media coverage this could be his equivalent to Dean's YYAAAAARRGGGGGGG!!!
- elhaf, on 10/12/2007, -5/+16Ron Paul is mainly a Libertarian. Which, if there's a good Republican left these days, they are Libertarian. That is exactly the opposite of what Bush stands for these days.
- jhnewt, on 10/12/2007, -9/+19I think its kind of catchy...
(sings to self: "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran...") - macfanboi, on 10/12/2007, -9/+19Has McCain lost his mind? Wow, this is like watching Britney Spears' self destruction.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12A simple "GnR - Civil War" would have sufficed instead of a novel.
- smoothmedia, on 10/12/2007, -9/+18Him and Bush should sing a duet!
http://bombiran.ytmnd.com/ - ihavebeenseen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10BAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
- hedley, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Unacceptable. He aspires to get the keys to the nuclear arsenal one day.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -19/+27You're right Catalyst, everybody that doesn't share the same viewpoints as you should just shut up. After all, who cares about the first amendment anyway when it doesn't fit your agenda?
- Milo82, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11@DryvBy... Everyone has the right to speak their minds, but voters have the responsibility of not voting into office people who have no idea where the line of acceptable speech is for public figures. They are voted into office and are supposed to represent the American people. And as someone said earlier, destroying thousands and thousands of lives is not something that should be laughed about by a public figure. We very well might have to go to war with Iran at some point, I hope not, but we might. If we do, I'm sure as hell not going to laugh about it.
- totorototoro, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10poor McCain, he's totally lost it.
- diecastbeatdown, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8on the rush limbaugh show way back in the mid/early 90s he used to play these parody songs 'bomb iran' and another one called 'bomb iraq'
so he didn't make these up, but more likely thought it was a funny throw back to the good 'ole rush times when the republicans had a lot to make fun of with clinton in charge and were missing Bush v1.0 - Milo82, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11You should.
- sonofdy1, on 10/12/2007, -7/+14So you respond to his joke by telling him to return to his jail where he was tortured for years. Classsssyyyy
- Skeptic1970, on 10/12/2007, -7/+14Wasn't that Kerry's defense for his botched troops joke. Did you cut him any slack?
- Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8McCain used to be moderate, before he had a visit from Vice President Palpatine.
- 4degrees, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11"I will not allow Iran to destroy Israel" but you will let Israel/US destroy Iran?
damn hypocritical jerk wads. - igm07, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Just a joke? How about if Ahmedinajad made the same jest, paraphrasing some catchy 60's Persian pop tune? Hardy-f*ing-har!
- Sifl, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11I was thinking more to the tune of the Imperial March.
- d00ley, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8"You guys are too young to remember that from the 70s when Iran was holding US hostages. Frankly, you guys seem clueless about the hole Iran issue."
You are too young to remember when we overthrew their democratically government in 1953 and installed the Shah during which a rein of terror ensued for the next 25 years. - pwolfe, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7This was just un-professional and tasteless.
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Doesn't it get annoying pasting in your silly url every time you post something on Digg?
Just wondering. - hikaruzero, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7[Censored.]
By the way: You're dumb. :) - kasrasf, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Afghanistan->>IRAQ->>IRAN->>N Korea->>Syria->>.......They are all bad !!! one by one need to fixed!!! while we are at it lets just fix the whole world!!!! It is the tax payers money.......there is no need to spend the money in school system and higher education or public transport!!! lets just go to war it is more cowboy friendly!!!!.......
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10That's because you are an ignorant right wing tool tool tool.
- SIRBERUS, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Waaaaaay mis quoted.
Quote the site says he said: ""'Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran,' he sang to the tune of Barbara Ann," the paper notes."
What he said in reality was like: "Like that old song by the Beach Boys. Bomb Iran?" "Bomb, bomb, bomb." - str3ama, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8what an idiot...
- buzneg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4music video - bomb iran
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3851426890212250833&q=bomb+iran&hl=en - OoO3xOoO, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Invading Iran is the only way to win in Iraq? Now there is a stretch of logic. I got news for you: We've already lost in Iraq. Any chances of a military victory in Iraq is long gone, even according to general Petraius.
And no we should not have gone into Iraq with 3x as many troops, we should NOT have gone into Iraq! They had no connection with 9/11. I know what you're thinking: "But Saddam was a brutal tyrant who gassed his own people." Very true, but your forgot to complete the thought: We were supporting Saddam when this happened and supplied him with many weapons throughout the 80s.
You said: "What better a reason do we need to introduce a bigger force than a radical that wants to destroy other countries in the region..." Hey, sounds like Bush and his destruction of Iraq!
Flips the bird to the UN, true. Are you telling me you support the UN? Most people on your side of the aisle identify with John Bolton and think the UN has become "obsolete", a whole different topic altogether. If you do support the UN, then you support the resolution calling for Israel to withdraw forces from occupied territories.
And of course you end with a nice cliche, congrats on coming up with that one. - TheGeek27, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I saw a wackly little flash movie about half a year ago with the "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran" as a whole song.
