LOL

This is so pathetic. The NYT is going to wind-up looking like an anti-McCain smear rag to even the wishy-washy Moderates and Independents at the rate they are going.

Good to see them desperate so early. McCain leads while taking the smears - meanwhile Obama trails despite being treated like Jesus’ better by the MSM. Just wait until B. Hussein O. actually has to take some heat.

I think John McCain is going to be the 44th President, and that the Times knows it!

This kind of nonsense from the NY Times is just want McCain needs - seriously. They think they are hurting him but they will end up doing the opposite.

I think we’re watching the NYT commit ritual suicide.

I think you are right! How could they keep going down this path as they lose reader after reader, ad after ad? You've hit on the only possible explanation!

You have it right.

Our youngest daughter was born in Kenya, but is an American citizen since both parents are American (one would have been enough).

This wouldn’t be an issue if his mother had run across the Rio Grande and squeezed him out.

Wiki -
McCain was born on August 29, 1936, at the Coco Solo Air Base in the then-American-controlled Panama Canal Zone[2] to Navy officer John S. "Jack" McCain, Jr. (1911–1981) and Roberta (Wright) McCain (b. 1912).

Folks, this is a non-starter: McCain was born to American citizens, thereby making him a citizen. He could have been born on the space station — it does not matter, as long as his parents were American citizens.

The Constitution, anyone?

John McCain has always been a citizen of the United States.

Case closed.

This story has been around before.

Maybe it's part of the Greening of the NYT - they are so conscientious about recycling they even recycle stories so as not to waste data bytes...

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution

Was McCrain around at the time of the "Adoption of this Constitution"?
