With his actions, lies, contradictions, grossly inexperienced running-mate, and "git off my lawn" demeanor, how in the world can anyone with a brain vote for John McCain? I won't be calling any names, or insulting you, but if you were part of Bush's 51% or part of McCain's rapidly diminishing 46% then this is aimed right at you. I mean, what's your track record over the last two elections? How'd "W" turn out? Some of you still have his 2004 "W"sticker proudly (ignorantly) displayed on your SUV LOL.
Since this diatribe is coming from me and not FAUX news, Lie mbaugh, or some other right-wing shill you'll likely flush it.
Just know this: You won't have a majority ever_again unless you join Obama and the rest of us, take care of your brothers/sisters first, and quit letting big business and the neocons push your buttons.
----------------
You all castigated Kerry 4 yrs ago for waffling. Admit it: In addition to many houses, vehicles and beer John McCain owns the waffle factory.
- Deregulator to regulator
- Against Bush tax cuts, now pledges to make them permanent
- Fundamentals of economy "sound" on Monday, "Sky is Falling" on Friday
- Palin, Please who are you kidding this person has NO BUSINESS being a heartbeat away from the US Presidency. What kind of candidate picks a shrill, faith healing political novice as their running mate? Why is it OK for Sarah's pastor to go on Witch Hunts? You are all so worried about Obama's pastor's remarks. Admit it. Aren't you the least bit embarassed by your candidate and his VP choice?
- Mavericks don't support a president like Bush with 95% of their senate votes
- Lies and then when called on it Lies again
- How many houses again?
- Alaska = 20% of US oil production - AS IF
- Palin foreign policy experience = 1. Lying about going into Iraq, 2. Can see Russia from Alaska, and 3. Just got my passport!!
- Palin abstinence, no real sex-ed, no condoms results in??
- Palin uses office for vendettas
- Earmarks to the tune of over $300M, but: "I'm a reformer"
- You can't see McCain through all the lobbyists on his staff, but yet he tries to co-opt the Obama "Change mantra".
- Transparency in Government Yeah right, directs subordinates and Palin's husband to refuse subpoenas (just like Cheney/Bush/Rove). Like to see one of you repubs try that on a personal level.
- Do you really want to hear Palin's harpy-like voice for 4 years? Like nails on a chalkboard or chewing on tinfoil. Do we really want to hear about her husband's affair?
- Palin thinks rape victims should pay for their own rape evidence kits. Her state leads the nation in rape/incest. That's it: rape the poor in Alaska and get away scot-free!
- CHURCH<---------------------------->STATE, not CSHTUARTCEH. Do you people even know who Thomas Jefferson is?? Oh, that's right, you wipe your ass with the US Constitution and Bill of Rights (except for Arming Bears that is).
- THANKS, but NO THANKS
- Who looks more presidential now? Who is calmly searching for answers to the Wall St. / Banking crisis? Who is using it as an excuse to fear-monger, suspend campaigning and duck a debate he is SURE to lose?
- Why can't Sarah answer questions, or be interviewed?
- Postpone Debates? I want a president that can multi-task. I also want someone to ask him the hard questions. So far he and Palin only show up for softball interviews.
- You still think Trickle Down economics works? Your conservative deregulation allowed the richest to game the system to the tune of over $700Billion. What have they done for you except find loopholes and avoid taxes. Where are the jobs? How is your salary keeping up with inflation? How bout them gasoline prices? WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR you to realize you are voting against your own best interest (unless you are a millionaire) when you vote Republican?
Not stopping here:
Keating Five (whats that you say? ) take a couple of minutes and watch this:
Define war HERO for me. Just going to war does not a HERO make. Crashing five planes, getting captured, getting treated better than other prisoners because your dad is an Admiral and the VC think you are royalty, these don't make me think of hero. A hero jumps on a grenade to save his buddy, a hero carries his buddy through a minefield to safety.
Graduated at the bottom of his class at the US Naval Academy, daddy got him into flight school.
For 23 combat missions (an estimated 20 hours over enemy territory), the U.S. Navy awarded McCain a Silver Star, a Legion of Merit for Valor, a Distinguished Flying Cross, three Bronze Stars, two Commendation medals plus two Purple Hearts and a dozen service medals.
"McCain had roughly 20 hours in combat," explains Bill Bell, a veteran of Vietnam and former chief of the U.S. Office for POW/MIA Affairs -- the first official U.S. representative in Vietnam since the 1973 fall of Saigon. "Since McCain got 28 medals," Bell continues, "that equals out to about a medal-and-a-half for each hour he spent in combat. There were infantry guys -- grunts on the ground -- who had more than 7,000 hours in combat and I can tell you that there were times and situations where I'm sure a prison cell would have looked pretty good to them by comparison. The question really is how many guys got that number of medals for not being shot down."

In case you missed it, Jeffrey Klein at HuffPo had an interesting piece on McCain’s refusal to release his service records, a piece which also mentioned the Senator’s poor showing at Annapolis, his curious assignment to the prestigious service of naval aviator, and his 5 plane crashes. The article concludes: “It wouldn’t be surprising if his naval superiors worried that McCain was just too defiant, too reckless and too crash prone. . . ”
Recently, McSame joined McBush in beating the off-shore oil drilling drum, and an article in the Miami Herald points out that the ramifications of this position in a key battleground state may have been a tad reckless as well:
John McCain’s support for offshore drilling could hurt his prospects in the nation’s largest battleground state, where voters have long favored safeguarding the economically and environmentally precious coastline.
Several high-profile Florida Republicans in Tallahassee and Washington broke with their party’s presumptive presidential nominee. Two of McCain’s chief supporters, U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez and Gov. Charlie Crist, this week dropped their opposition to lifting the ban on offshore drilling in favor of limited drilling, presumably far off the coast.
Ray Sansom, the incoming leader of the Florida House, told reporters in Tallahassee he opposes drilling. Another GOP leader challenged McCain’s assertion drilling would increase oil supply and lower gas prices.
”For anyone to represent that someone drilling off the coast in Florida is going to lower gas prices here or anywhere in this country is disingenuous and a flawed argument,” said Republican House Speaker Marco Rubio, who added that he supports drilling off Florida’s coast if it can be done safely.
Of course, the precise argument McCain and Bush are making is that drilling off the coast in Florida is going to lower gas prices.
As much as Wingnuttia tries to fabricate the meme that Obama is gaffe prone, McCain has the demonstrated ability to crash his plane into the ground all by himself, and to do so repeatedly.
Oh, and by the way: JESUS WAS A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER! (he was most likely black too-at the very least he was brown.)
Only the stupid, stubborn, or bigoted are voting for McCain, which one are you? (Some of you hit the trifecta and should be deported). By the way: Patriots, by definition, DO NOT LIKE or TRUST their GOVERNMENT. Stop co-opting the term. What you call a Patriot is actually a Nationalist- look it up.
