McCain's helicopter

I must admit, I initially found McCain's response to Obama at yesterday's "fiscal responsibility what's-it" really obnoxious when I heard it last night. Obama graciously throws open the floor to McCain who responds with a snarky, "Well, what about your helicopter; it costs as much as Airforce One." As if Obama personnally requested some tricked-out ride with spinner hubcaps and shag rugs inside. But seeing the video, McCain just looks angry in general, and his comment gave Obama a great opportunity to respond with a self-deprecating, very funny remark, diffusing the situation.

But instead of getting pissed at McCain, we should be asking him: One helicopter has you worked up? What about the F22 program, flyboy?
