Meet Joe The Crank

October 23rd, 2008, 8:27 PM EDT

Joe’s last name? McCain.  Yes, THAT McCain, the brother of John, who made an earlier Liberaland appearance when he referred to parts of Virginia as “communist”.  Now, the would-be first brother has called 911 to complain about the traffic outside his house.


Operator: 911 state your emergency

 

Caller: It’s not an emergency but do you know why on one side at the damn drawbridge of 95traffic is stopped for 15 minutes and yet traffic’s coming the other way?


Operator: Sir, are you calling 911 to complain about traffic? (pause)

 

Caller: “(Expletive) you.” (caller hangs up)


The operator called back to inform him that his 911 call was inapprorpriate, but got voicemail.  McCain then called 911 back to complain about that message.


DC’s WJLA has the story.

  1. My reactions, in the order that they happened:

    1. LOL.

    2. Even already knowing that no one competent is running the McCain campaign does not help me accept this ridiculous matter as any part of reality.

    3. What the hell is this guy whining about? Why is he calling 911? Why not VDOT? Why not his Congressman? (I live in Northern VA)

    4. Shaking my head in disbelief.

    5. LMAO.

    6. Sadly thinking… well, I have a younger brother who’s embarassed me professionally at least twice before.

  3. Anyone ever notice how conservatives rail about the Fairness Doctrine, and the 1st Amendment, but silence Billy Ayers when he went to Nebraska? They do the same thing with the Iranian President.

  6. If the brother of mcsame is okay to talk about, let’s talk about biden’s brother.

    Let’s see how many words we can use…

    Frank, biden, rented car, speeding,PCH (the road along the beach in kalifornia) accident, killed, single father, hit & run, pled guilty felony hit & run, lawsuit, $800,000, lost, not paid a dime.

    Yup, calling 911 by a republican is much worse than reporting about biden’s brother.

    And it’s not some right-wing-nut blog, it’s those good democrats that support hillary reporting it. Doing the job the obama media won’t do.

  7. He was on the Woodrow Wilson bridge. Like most places in the D.C. Metropolitan Area the traffic there can get pretty bad even with the construction of the new bridge. I think it has to do with the fact that people in this area do not know how to merge effectively.

  8. What about my uncle Billy Carter? The beer salesman! Or Roger Clinton. Do you really want to go that route?

  10. There are quite a few people who wouldn’t want to be judged by their siblings. Mine are all okay now, but when we were teenagers, one of my brothers was a “wild child”. That doesn’t mean that I was, nor does it mean that I condoned anything he did. Why should anyone be judged by the behavior of their siblings?

    I’ve been a responsible, law abiding citizen for my entire life; I’ve even helped to ‘put away’ federal criminals. You can see the story on my site which is linked to my name. I have an unblemished driving record as well; never had a ticket in my entire life. Don’t judge me by what my siblings may or may not do.

  11. I think we should judge Obama by his sibling’s actions, starting with his half-brother who lives on a dollar a month in a hut in Africa.

    By the way, shouldn’t Obama be helping his brother out?

    He will.

    He just doesn’t want to use his money.

  13. Alan, Bidens daughter involved in drunken fight outside bar, his brother involed in hit and run fatal accident, and you want to use a poor judgement 911 call to put a bad light Mccain?

  15. This gaff should be used in an ad. I see where he got his thinking from. Just listen to his big brother. Lack of judgement and temperment. Vote OBAMA! It,s time for a change.
