Of course his temper is well known and not just limited to the women in his life. McCain has a reputation of having a nasty temper that leads him to explode at others. Explosions that too often includes cursing and insulting those he disagrees with. Now we can include making spousal abuse jokes to the already impressive resume of this hot head.
According to an article at BlogHer by Erin Kotecki Vest, McCain felt he was being asked a loaded question and responded with an old joke on loaded questions and beating wives.
(Chuckling) And I stopped beating my wife just a couple of weeks ago….
Perhaps I'm just "hysterical" and "emotional", as well as the other terms thrown at women to discredit their opinions, but I don't find this funny at all. Yes, I understand the meaning of the joke. Ask a man when he stopped beating his wife then turn the answer against him. If he says never, because he never beat his wife, you take the never to mean he has not stopped. If he gives a date then use it to show he is guilty of beating his wife. McCain is trying to defuse a loaded question he was asked.
I'm still not laughing.
