Upon discovering this long-suspected list, it's become eminently clear that John McCain never saw an issue he couldn't take both sides of - simultaneously.
He is/is not one of the worst/best Republicans/Democrats/Independents to ever vote for/against this/that/every/no cause/non-issue confronting the American/non-American people. So at least we always/never know/don'tknow where/where-not he stands/doesn't stand. And as quantum/non-quantum physics becomes more important/irrelevant, I'm sure/unsure McCain would/wouldn't be/not-to-be a great/abominable leader. And if so/not, at least/most, Palin would/wouldn't.
So with/without any further ado/adon't, here's the list, thanks to a link from this great blog lately/not-lately introduced/not-introduced to me/not-me:
