McCain considering using Gustav disaster area as prop for convention acceptance speech

This is simply sick.

John McCain [is] floating the idea that he might deliver his acceptance speech Thursday night from the area blasted by the storm.

What, McCain missed Katrina, because he was off having birthday cake with George Bush (though the corporate media isn't mentioning this in their coverage of Gustav, isn't that interesting), so this time he wants to take full advantage of the storm by using the victims as political props? Wow, that is simply sick. Then again, the McCain people like thinking of national disasters as political props. And don't forget, it was John McCain himself who said he'd never cancel a visit with our injured troops, even if the visit were considered a photo op. So, big surprise that McCain is now using Gustav as political theater.
