“John McCain had a line that really embedded for me how the conversation in America has gotten so off base.  He said, ‘I will appoint judges that will strictly interpret the constitution and not legislate from the bench.’  And the crowd went nuts, and gave him a standing ovation.  Explain to me what the hell he said?  Because unless your a constitutional scholar or in the Federalist Society, I mean, what he was really saying is, ‘I’ll make sure gay people can’t get married, and I’ll try to get Roe v Wade overturned.’  Why can’t we have that conversation honestly like adults and not pretend like we’re all talking this weird code language around each other?”

More excellent commentary tonight during his interview with author Peggy Noonan.  I’ll post the full video when Comedy Central releases it.
