McCain more "Celeb" than Obama

I have something good to say about John McCain, presidential candidate. He is good at irony without even trying to be.
 
You've seen the latest ad by McCain that dismisses Obama as a celebrity and compares him to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton to suggest he's a lightweight and isn't fit to lead. The issue of Obama's experience is legitimate but this comparison is ironic.
 
McCain has been America's most visible Senator long before anyone ever heard of Barack Obama. The media has fawned over him for a decade and continues to do so. He's been on SNL, sung about bombing Iran and even threw in a truly tasteless joke about Chelsea Clinton.
 
He also is a regular viewer of The Hills, by his own admission. He even got the endorsement of Hills uber-slattern Heidi Montag.
 
McCain even got a campaign contribution Rick and Kathy Hilton, who are also known as the parents of Paris Hilton.

If you are watching ads then why did you not see the one Obama had on John McCain with the cancer areas on his face? This is deplorable...so who are you to talk about ads...check your facts first...Biden had no idea what was shown and said "it was not shown to me and I totally disapprove of anything like that" I get my facts as well as you...

Speaking of checking facts...the ad you mentioned was not produced the Obama campaign. That fact didn't make it into your comments, which is no surprise.

The overall point of what I wrote, that McCain has sought out celebrity status more than Obama, is not disputable.
