John McCain: too old, too angry, too much like George W. Bush.

McCain Had Cancer Surgery in February

From McCain's recently "disclosed" medical records:
McCain's most recent exams show a range of health issues common in aging: He frequently has precancerous skin lesions removed, and in February had an early stage squamous cell carcinoma, an easily cured skin cancer, removed. He had benign colon growths called polyps taken out during a routine colonoscopy in March.

Americablog has questions:
Anybody else troubled that candidate McCain was running for the GOP nomination, went for cancer surgery, and didn't bother telling anyone? What else isn't he bothering to tell us, and won't he tell us in the future? If this is McCain's standard for disclosure about his medical condition, we'd need weekly document dumps of his medical files because McCain clearly has a policy of hiding his true medical condition while running for president.

Considering that John McCain has had bouts of skin cancer for the past 15 years, it will take a lot more than a three-hour peek at his medical records to assure Americans that he is healthy enough for the job. This so-called disclosure of his medical records is absurd. Either McCain is hiding something, or he is acting like somebody who is hiding something. Why not give the press unlimited access to these records, if there is nothing to hide?

And why is McCain refusing to release his psychiatric reports? If anything, his mental deterioration is even more worrisome than his physical ailments.
