McCain Has Mole-Like Skin Removed

July 28, 2008 2:06 PM

ABC News' Bret Hovell Reports: John McCain had a small piece of mole-like skin removed from his right temple this morning at a regularly scheduled dermatological checkup in Phoenix.

"It was just a precautionary measure," a campaign aide said when she told reporters about the procedure aboard McCain's plane.

McCain can be seen wearing a bandage on that spot.

The aide said that it was "nothing that looked in any way cancerous."

As long as he doen’t start burrowing tunnels in my yard, I’m fine with it.

[Gay State Conservative]

The RATS will pounce on this.

[WayneS]

Sorry: “As long as ge DOESN’T...”

[WayneS]

Do they eat moles?

[americanophile]

This should dominate today’s news cycle...

[NonValueAdded]

and out came a democRAT?

[dennisw]

McCain is always wearing a baseball cap..... To shield him from the sun.

But ge may really need to burrow holes in your back yard...

I spent a third of a century professionally counseling folks who were quite a bit older than I.

Sorry about being too real... but once we pass 70, any unusual health issue is a big one.

Teddy, Novak and McCain will not be exceptions...I would lay odds against 80 in all three cases.

Say what?

It’s the sunburn you get when you’re six years old that does you in decades later. The one place where he did not have to worry about getting too much sun was the Hanoi Hilton.

But alas, everything I’ve read about malignant melanoma is that it just keeps coming back like dandelions until it gets you.

[Plutarch]

McCain's 2000 melanoma was on his left temple.

If the pathology were to come back as melanoma, the GOP Convention might definitely be a lot more newsworthy.

Let's hope this mole wasn't the last piece of real conservatism Mccain had left in his body

[Polyxene]

“Everything I’ve read about malignant melanoma is that it just keeps coming back like dandelions until it gets you.”

You are correct. My uncle had malignant melanomas on his face that were removed one at a time, numerous times but kept coming back. His poor face was not a pretty sight. He finally succumbed to the cancer, and he was younger than McCain is now. This does not bode well for McCain.

The other day someone was asking if McCain had a mole in his campaign. Now we know.

McCain Has Mole-Like Skin Removed

Too bad he can't have his RINO-like brain removed, and then operations done to replace the current brain with a CONSERVATIVE-Like one, AND, have a set of CONSERVATIVE BALLS attached to his current, Eunich-Like body.

Perhaps THEN, we'd have a better chance of not only WINNING, but forwarding a CONSERVATIVE, AMERICA/AMERICANS-FIRST agenda.
