Again, Senator, the camera is on when the red light is blinking.

    The internet has made the whole “I didn’t say that” defence a lot harder to use, if not impossible.

    It blinks? I thought it just turned on when on. And stays off when off.

    “It blinks? I thought it just turned on when on. And stays off when off.”

    Compelling argument. I guess McCain didn’t lie about what he’s said in the past on numerous occasions.

    “It blinks? I thought it just turned on when on. And stays off when off.”

    Maybe it’s turning on and off repeatedly, and we’re only getting snippets of a well-thought out, consistent message.

    Hi C.S…

    Not everything is an argument. I recall that the light on a camera, called a “tally light,” I think, lights up red when the camera is on air and is off when the camera is not on air. Has nothing to do with John McCain.

    Jojo…that reminds me of an old blond joke. I can’t convert it to text, but it involved making the sound of a blond driving through a flashing red light.

    Cheers,
    Scratch

    Or the blond at the beauty parlor with a Walkman on.
    Hair stylist says, “You have to take that off.”

    “Oh, I can’t. If I do, I’ll die.”

    A struggle ensues, the stylist finally gets the headphones off. The blond falls over dead.
    The stylists puts the headphones on: “Breathe in…..breathe out…..breathe in…..breathe out…..”
