Sure McCain can’t sing. Sure the timing of the joke was terrible. Sure it was offensive because it’s not a joking matter, but was the message actually wrong?
No.
Attacking Iran might be distasteful, but since when is the right choice ever the easiest? I have been calling for an attack upon Iran for several years now. In the past two years the evidence against Iran and Syria as per their hands being dirty in Iraq is without question. Iranians are caught each month now and how many times have we heard the phrase from the U.S. military: “it is not clear if the Iranian government had authorized the shipment.”
I mean, come on, people. Do we want to continue coddling the worst terrorist regime in the world and wait for Islamists to attain nuclear power and weaponry or are we going to take the hard path and do the right thing and attack an enemy that is gleefully undermining U.S. power around the world, kidnapping British sailors and actively endorsing, planning and implementing ways to murder our soldiers?
The song might be disharmonious, but the lyrics are dead-on. Bomb, bomb, bomb — bomb, bomb Iran.
And for the record, I do not endorse McCain for President. I just happen to agree with him on this particular subject.

Personally, I think McCain bombed.
For quite some years Iran has stated they intend to wipe the USA, the GREAT SATAN, along with Israel off the face of the earth. Why are we here in the USA simply sitting around like idiots waiting passively for this to happen while watching Iran steadily build up their nuclear program developing nuclear bombs to bomb us into oblivion? If I am faced by a rattlesnake about to sink his fangs full of deadly poison into me, I am going to kill that snake beforehand. McCain as well as Foehammer’s remarks above are absolutely correct, making plain common sense. I am sick of putting up with bullies, threats and wasting US resources and lives on a bunch of murdering Ragheads who have very clearly warned us of their deadly intentions well ahead of time! I will not sit docile without attempting any defense whatsoever like an idiot and allow the Dwarf Thug of Iran to destroy me or my country as moonbats, idiots, Democrats and other debris continually demand that Americans must do. DEMAND the USA enforce its defense of our country!
I remember when the Beach Boys first sang the “Bomb Iran” song. Well,, I think it was them singing although I am not sure if it was a parody, and I knew their original song well from my youth.
Iran has been annoying the S*** out of the west since the Shah was exiled.
I don’t understand why we don’t give some of it back? Are we getting decadent and complacent? And after the UK sailor incident also? They must think we are lily-livered idiots.
It is time for a leader to emerge.
Yes, it was a parody of “Barbara Anne” by the Beach Boys.
“Ba-Ba-Ba, Ba-Barbara-Anne.”
The dangerous out come of this controversey of McCains Barbara Ann comment is that the D-Rats will sieze the opportunity to try and squeeze a pledge from all Republican candidates to not bomb Iran. Then we will be in touble. BTW “Barbara Ann” became a hit first when released by the Regents in 1961, not the Beach Boys who later covered it with the most popular version of the song.
