McCain should stick to curly fries

I almost felt sorry for John McCain, the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party, in a televised debate on Sunday night. Asked about useless government spending he decided to pop a blood vessel over a $3 million expenditure to determine the DNA of black bears. Scientists say that this research will aid in the preservation of the species, while John says that it's just pork-barrel.

Funny that. The US spends over $200 million PER DAY in IRAQ. But McCain criticizes $3 million on a project that he says is in Alaska... but is actually in Montana.

Maybe the solution is to send the bears to IRAQ, then the military could do the research as a blackbear-op... and no one would be the wiser. It may be cruel to the bears but... hey... it's better optics.
