Isakson to speak for McCain

If you’re out and about today and are both hungry and interested, then you might want to head over to the Fulton County GOP’s barbecue for Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

McCain himself won’t be there, but Georgia U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson will be. Isakson will be speaking on McCain’s behalf.

The event starts at 11 a.m. and Isakson is expected to speak at 12:15. It’s at the Roswell Area Park, 10495 Woodstock Road in Roswell.

McCain spokeswoman Gisele Roget says Isakson, whose support in the primary was key for McCain, “is a strong social conservative and his support of Sen. McCain is testament to Sen. Isakson’s firm belief in Sen. McCain’s commitment to traditional values.”

WOW! Isakson can’t speak for himself let alone for anyone else. He can’t defend his own abysmal record, how can he speak for McCain’s lousy record — Oh, I see, they both have equally lousy records so for once Isakson may know what he’s talking about but Ga don’t want to hear either one of them.
