John McCain’s Secret Medical Records Revealed
After more than a year of stalling, John McCain is finally making his medical records public. However, the process by which he is releasing the data suggests that he hopes it doesn’t become too public. His campaign has chosen the Friday prior to the three day Memorial Day weekend for the document dump.

“…by 2008, I think I might be ready to go down to the old soldiers home…”
