CNN was reporting more of his records in detail:
Sidney smoked 2 packs of cigarettes a day for 25 years.
He has a high probability of recurrence in his melanomas.
He requires medication to keep his high cholesterol and blood pressure under control.
He requires medication to keep his high risk of heart attack/stroke at bay.
Basically, this guy is a walking time bomb. Not only because of his policies, but because he literally has one foot in the grave. A vote for McSame is basically a vote for his VP.

Cancer kills. RIP Sydney Pollack; 73, diagnosed with cancer 9 months ago.
Do we really want to put a man who is almost 72, with a history of malignant cancer, into The White House?
[John Stossel] Give me a break. [/John Stossel]

I take offense to this. My fiancee is 23 and a leukemia survivor, I myself am 23 and a survivor of Hodgkin's Lymhoma. In no way should I be disqualified from life because I am a cancer survivor. Cancer kills, but so do a multitude of other things. Many of them are treatable, and in no way is it the same death sentence that it was even 10 years ago. Adding to the fact that McCainhas been cancer free for 8 years and had a very easily treated cancer should be enough for anyone.
If all you got is the 'cancer card' and you can't find a legitimate reason to dislike John McCain, your no better that the people who won't vote for Obama because is black, or Hillary cause she is a woman. It's the exact same type of discrimination.
As for the threads topic,
The idea that McCain will walk down to the office and set off a nuke while on a sleeping pill is just stupid.

First, don't insult my intelligence (or yours) by saying a cancer (or any serious disease) affects a 23 year old the same as it affects a 72 year old. A minor case of pneumonia can mean a few days in the hospital for a 23 year old, and a oak casket for a 72 year old.
More tidbits from Sidney McSame's medical records, highlighting his extremely high occurrence of cancer and a host of other health issues:
This is only what they uncovered in the few hours they had access to the records. A thorough review would have been enough to put Sidney's campaign into an early grave.
Pro-Tip: Elderly adults have nearly equivalent survival rates than 20-35 year olds.
"There is a very widespread perception that the chances [of survival] are favorable in this age group," said Dr. Bleyer, who holds the Mosbacher Chair Emeritus in pediatrics at the University of Texas. "This used to be true. But now, they're worse off than the younger patients, and not much better than the older ones

He has been in remission for 8 years, I have a much greater chance at having a relapse. McCains is in the single digits.

... and he ain't no statistician, either. The survivability of a 72-year-old President surely far exceeds that of an average 60-year-old, and in any even THE AVERAGE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE OLD IS ACTUALLY AN OLDER AGE THAN THAT OF THE GENERAL POPULATION.
The only hope to discredit war hero McCain is by calling him stupid names. We'll see what America thinks.

If I wanted to discredit him, I'd go for a 'gimme', like his closet full of flip-flops and suckling at GWB's teet after becoming the GOP front-runner for 2008.
This thread is all about listing the host of reasons why McSame shouldn't be elected based on his physical health.

You would think Republicans would have learned their lesson when they nominated Bob Dole at age 73.
Then again, McSame is so close to retirement from politics that he's a good throw-away pick for the GOP. They don't want to waste any strong candidates in an election where the deck is stacked against them after 8 years of Bush.
Yes, rationalize away your stupidity in this thread. Bob Dole couldn't have lost for any reason but his age. LOL I'll bump this thread and rub your nose in it when your largely untested candidate loses to the war hero with a serious track record of leadership.
And here I thought liberals were for "equality".
Don't talk about Obama, because he is black and you will be labelled a racist.
Don't talk about Clinton, because she is a woman and you will be labelled a sexist.
Don't talk about McCain, oh wait, he's old and a republican...fair game.
Are you new to partisan politics or something? It's always been this way. Sheesh, get with the program already.
Yes havent you seen the movies? There is a big red button on a desk the president sits at. If he falls asleep his head or hand may bonk into it causing our missiles to fire immediately at their targets destroying the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
