Not so fast, Ace.

As Think Progress points out, this isn’t the first time that John McCain has suddenly remembered his day job and tried to "just parachute in here on the last day."

Hey, the guy crashed five planes – he’s just sticking with what he knows.  (Although, to be fair, it should also make him an expert on bailouts.)

And that’s what scares me about the thought of President McCain at the controls of the 300-million-seater DC-1600: Those of us flying Coach don’t get ejector seats or parachutes.

(Many thanks to Kagro X for passing my cartoon idea on to Dave The Rave, who did a great job of making it a reality.)
