WILL STILL BITE YOUR HEAD OFF McCain (Photo: Getty Images) Everyone agrees that razzing John McCain about his gay sweaters is quite hilarious. But is cracking wise about his busted grill crossing the line? The Minnesota Monitor thought about it for a second and decided no, definitely not. Hence this punchy item describing the Republican nominee's teeth as "piano-key chompers" and a "mess of yellowed and contorted Chiclets."
This turned out to be a great thing for Republican bloggers who love getting all outraged about stuff and hate George Soros, who is thought to finance the Monitor. They quickly pointed out that the post was especially tasteless since McCain had his teeth kicked in, literally, during his very unpleasant POW experience in Vietnam.
