Senator John McCain built his senatorial career flirting with moderation. I thought I would never forgive him.

Recently, he’s come around. He gave a commencement speech at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University, a pretty much unaccredited institution so Christian it even creeps Me out. And now he has agreed to deliver a keynote address on February 23rd at the Discovery Institute, an organization of My most passionate disinformers. This behavior has earned him the nickname “Saint McCain.”

For abandoning his secular principles, for lifting himself ever higher to kiss the Gigantic Ass in the Sky, I hereby award Saint McCain a halo:

May it eternally glow brighter than his head already does.
