In 1565, Jean de la Valette was exactly the age McCain is now when he personally led the successful defense of Malta against the massed forces of the Ottoman Empire and saved Europe from conquest by Islam.
McCain’s mother is also in her nineties and has all her marbles so there’s an indication. And Osamabama’s parents both died young. So what’s it all mean?
Nuthin.
Actually, Obama's campaign has been "double domed" from day 1:
:-)
It is a scandal and an outrage that the story of the Siege of Malta is virtually unknown in the West; not honored, not taught in our history books.
Fine, go ahead and talk about his age. We will talk about the difference between Barak Hussein Obama’s and John Sidney McCain’s patriotism, experience, devotion to duty, pride in his country, and his many years in the Senate where he’s actually done something other than campaign for the next highest office.
I think Hussein’s big weak spot is his total lack of any experience as a legislator or leader, as he’s spent all of his political career running for election. He has NO record.
Period. The End.
You are correct sir.
He did not really say that - did he???
Here's what I found by research: in a comment on MY FOX Orlando

"Turns out this article was written by John Semmens, a columnist for a website called “The Arizona Conservative”.
http://www.azconservative.org/
Mr. Semmens columns are actually satires. In other words, he takes bits of actual events, and makes a comedy out of it. In short, it didn't actually happen. I found a blog about this very subject, with the following explanation by him:
“It is semi-true. Obama doesnt wear a flag pin and was photographed not saluting the flag. I have merely divulged his inner thoughts explaining his actions.”
I love a good Obama bash as much as you guys do, but sometimes, you just have to be careful of what you receive in your email. ;-)"
Obama’s got more to worry about. When he tries to halt the 100 Years War in the Mideast, the Military-Industrial Complex will take him out from behind a grassy knoll somewhere just like JFK...and blame it on some lone & looney Leftist Marine getting off 3 shots in less than 6 seconds with a broken rifle & a bad case of ‘Maggie’s Drawers’...
Right...
Hopefully McCain will pick a VP who, him (or her) self will be electable in '12.
And now, Winston Churchill is being taken out of the history books in ENGLAND'S schools!
McCain should respond to Obama by saying “Let’s go bowling you candy-a$$ racist motherf*****.” Let’s see if you’re PHYSICALLY STRONG ENOUGH to even get the ball to knock over any pins. Obama is so physically weak he had a hard time getting the ball down the lane. And Obama is going to make age an issue?
YOu have irrefutable evidence of this, of course.
At McCains age, he would probably be thankful for anything that hit at him!
You are right. I didn’t do any research on it. Thanks for the tip.
Well unlike Reagan,, I hope he does make points about BarrackO’s youth and inexperience.
Has it occured to the hate-monger that with the average age in America getting older and older on the trailing edge of the Baby Boom that more and more of the voters may object to him picking on age?
'Turns out, the obamamama gave us a much better real 'obamama moment' - Now most of us bitter, gun-toting, Bible thumping, anti-gay rural hicks out here know what he thinks about us.
