Driver: “Now, Senator, you’re going to want to take it easy here…”
McCain: “Nonsense. I survived five years in a Hanoi prison. I can eat anything.”
Driver (to himself): “Yeah, like the burritos you had last week that brought tears to our eyes.”

“I do get to order off the same menu you do. And it’s like that everywhere now.”

Bus Driver: Now, Senator, this is a menu. You tell the waitress what you want to eat and once you’ve eaten you have PAY the waitress and leave a TIP ’cause that’s how she makes her rent and pays for the $4.25 a gallon gas and pays for the school physicals for her kids because she doesn’t have any health insurance. And no, you can’t rub my head. And this is not an Applebees and there is no salad bar.
McCain: Is this Italian chili? I see they have spaghetti under the chili. Did Marco Polo discover chili in China at the same time he discovered spaghetti? How come these places you take me to don’t have salad bars?

Yeah, I know they put cinnamon in the chili – you have to eat it anyway.

No sir, if the started the early bird special based on a sliding scale for age you’d be eligible around 9 in the morning.

Yes, they do have green jello on the menu – have since Boy Blunder started eating here regular

Driver: Can I have Chorrizo and Eggs?

“No, no, Senator… the ‘whites only’ part means the omelets they serve here are the low-cholesterol kind.”

So help me Sir, but if you order the Large Chili Bowl with onions AND the Large Cheese Fries, I just gonna strap you up on the roof, like Mit Romney’s dog until we get to St Louis

Driver: All due respect, sir, the only African Americans voting for you this year are Alan Keyes and Clarence Thomas.

Trust me, Senator. The key to siphoning off black votes in North Carolina is to remind them how kind old Jesse was to them.
