Quote: McCain on Optimism - Neatorama

"Remember the words of Chairman Mao: 'It's always darkest before it's totally black.'."
- John McCain, American politician and Senator (b. 1936)

Uh... Why not just say a quote from Mao Tse-tung!

You might as well give credit to a 12-year old that cites a good quote.

"I like what Mao said: 'Its always darkest before it's totally black.'"
- Little Bo Peep, American child with no reputable credibility

This just isn't my bias coming out to attack a liberal in republican clothing.

Ah, you guys didn't get it - McCain was joking. Mao never said that at all. It was a clever pun. Maybe too clever!

That's a pun?

Mao sounds like "Me-ow" - and it's a black cat.

Did I get it?
