McCain on Paranoia

"Get on the damn elevator! Fly on the damn plane! Calculate the odds of being harmed by a terrorist! It's still about as likely as being swept out to sea by a tidal wave!"

"Suck it up, for crying out loud. You're almost certainly going to be okay. And in the unlikely event you're not, do you really want to spend your last days cowering behind plastic sheets and duct tape?

"That's not a life worth living, is it?"

This makes too much sense; it flies in the face of the paranoia pushed by the Administration. Senator McCain might get a private rebuke from the RNC if he keeps that crap up.
