Yep it is legit and McCain asked that the video be pulled so Barry can’t blame McCain for that one.

I’ve stated my position very clearly that I don’t like the ad. I was interested that this morning Senator Obama said that it was a legitimate political issue. If he believes that, then it will probably be a political issue. I saw yesterday some additional comments that have been revealed by Pastor Wright, one of them comparing the United States Marine Corps with Roman legionnaires who were responsible for the death of our Savior. I mean being involved in that —it’s beyond belief. And then of course saying that Al Qaeda and the American flag were the same flags.

So I can understand — I can understand why the American people are upset about this. I can understand that Americans viewing these kinds of comments are angry and upset, just like they viewed Senator Obama’s statements about why people turn to their faith and their values. He believes that it’s out of economic concerns, when we all know that it’s out of fundamental belief, fundamental faith in this country and its values and its principles. Again, Senator Obama is out of touch. I can’t control and will not in the future control. I will voice my opinion and I will continue to think and to say that I think that ad should not be run. But I won’t continue to try to be the referee here.

McCain is a saavy campaigner who knows exactly what he’s doing….

“Here lies, in honored glory, an American soldier, known but to God.”

Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other vews.

Saavy campaigner.

It looks like he’s been running for a safe seat ever since he won the Republican endorsement for his house seat in 1982 with a whopping 32% support (three others were running).

His Senate seat hasn’t been filled by a Democrat since before Barry Goldwater had it.

1% of Americans pay 40% of the income tax.
5% of Americans pay 60% of the income tax.
10% of Americans pay 70% of the income tax.

It’s because he wasn’t conservatives to just shut up!

Not sure where you are getting that from anything McCain said but just like McCain you have a right to state your own opinion.

One of the most important talents for success in politics is the ability to make utter nonsense sound not only plausible but inspiring. Barack Obama has that talent. We will be lucky if we escape the catastrophes into which other countries have been led by leaders with that same charismatic talent.

DocDave:  Whistler is obsessed by his disdain for McCain and it gets in the way of his clarity. His whole post has it wrong as proof pointed out.

McCain said that the NC Republican party was out of touching for running an ad over it. 

Of course that was without even seeing the ad.

I don’t see where he retracted his attack on the ND Republican party.

Regarding my contention that he wants conservatives to shut up I stand by it as my opinion.  He’s been hostile to conservatives that didn’t agree with is amnesty.  He slammed that talk show host that brought up his opponents middle name.  And we have this incident where he called a branch of his own party out of touch.

He’s been hostile to conservatives that didn’t agree with is [sic] amnesty

How has he been hostile?  He admitted he was wrong.

he wants conservatives to shut up

When, where and/or how did he say that?  At Cpac?

slammed that talk-show host

Oh. You mean Ghallagher, the guy who knew that using Obama’s middle name was a cheap-shot?  BTW:  McCain never ‘slammed’ him or mentioned him by name. He just said that he didn’t approve of that kind of talk.  I don’t either.

You have an issue that you can’t or won’t look at.

He didn’t admit he was wrong.  He said that he got the message the voters want enforcement first.

I thought it was pretty cool that this was my conclusion of his attitude.

So we can’t use a candidates middle name now?

Sidney Sidney Sidney.

Boy I bet you’re steaming made now.

That should have been pretty clear.

Using a candidate’s middle name to mock him or imply that he is a muslim is - as you well know - a cheap-shot.  McCain was right to call him on it.

It is in fact his middle name is it not?

5% of Americans pay 60% of the income tax.

PParents would it be ok to use his middle name while questioning his choice of what Christian minister he chooses to follow?

Come on his name is Barack Hussein Obama; Hussein is his middle name and there is nothing wrong with calling him that name. McCain should back off the Republicans (McCain can not win without conservatives like me) and if he keeps saying this and that is out of touch me and many other conservatives will stay home and we won’t vote for McCain who is basically nothing more than Rebulican light. I dare him to pick a liberal Republican for a running mate and that will do it for me. Hello Barack Hussein Obama for President.

I call Hillary Diane Rodham Milhous Clinton by her middle name! Is that mocking? (I certainly hope so!)

It is not McCain’s place to say if the ad should be run or not. This is the stuff that will turn off conservatives. With the Conservative vote McCain will be lucky to win the election. People are not getting the point. This is why TRUE die in the woll conservatives are not excited about McCain, its his disdain for the conservative wing of the party. That is the heart and sole of the republican party not Rino’s like McCain, Snowe, Wittman and Chaffee.

McCain - like any republican candidate - has to win not only a majority of republicans, but a fair number of independents and democrats to become president.  That’s the reality.

You can quibble all you want, But Cunningham was mocking Obama with the repeated and exculsive use of his middle name.  I would hope this election is about a lot more than Rodham, Hussein or Sidney.

Wouldn’t you?

Why? we have a candidate is probably has about a 50-65 % chance of getting creamed in the general election.

In case you have noticed he is going to have a very tough time getting a majority of Republicans to vote for him. If you think I am wrong you might want to listen to what other GOPers are telling you.
You can not dismiss the hard right of the Republican party. McCain stance on the core GOP issues like Shamesty has a good chance of coming back to bite him.

Hillary Rodham Clinton. Barack Hussain Obama. William Jefferson Clinton. John F. Kerry. George W. Bush. George Herbert Walker Bush.

It is beyond commonplace to call politicians by all 3 names, or at least the middle initial. (In Hillary’s case, her maiden name takes the place of the middle name.) Barack Hussein Obama has referred to himself by that name, and said he is quite proud of it.

Except for Michael Savage and John McCain, no one on the right ever thought it was an issue. Saying that using someone’s NAME is an attack is idiotic. Anyone who suggests such a thing should be instantly mocked out of the public sphere. It’s actually some how less intelligent than suggesting that pointing out someone’s record is a personal attack.

It’s all political bullshit. Liberals (and Robert108) lie and spin and twist and obscure and distract and cheat to protect their guys and hurt the opposing team. It’s like wrestling. They distract the ref while their team mate hits you with a chair. There’s no rule they won’t break, no law they won’t skirt, no crime they won’t forgive as long as they can win.

We’ve heard the polls saying that so many of Hillary supporters won’t for Barack “H” Obama and vice versa. 

I don’t think so as they have nearly identical policy positions.

However McCain is more like a Democrat on a limited number but important issues. 

It’s up to the candidate to make himself acceptable to the voters.

1% of Americans pay 40% of the income tax.
5% of Americans pay 60% of the income tax.
10% of Americans pay 70% of the income tax.

Hmmmm.

These are McCain’s principles: he doesn’t want to stoop to a low fight, and he’s asking his party not to either.

When fighting a monster, you must make sure that in the process you don’t become one.

However McCain is more like a Democrat on a limited number but important issues. 

Perhaps he is (one could say the same about Bush), but if he can be categorized as a Democrat, it is what the Democrats used to be before they be came screaming leftists.  Given the above, the choice you will have to make on election day is whether to vote for an old style Dem or a deranged lefty Dem.  Hopefully that choice will not be too difficult for you.

One of the most important talents for success in politics is the ability to make utter nonsense sound not only plausible but inspiring. Barack Obama has that talent. We will be lucky if we escape the catastrophes into which other countries have been led by leaders with that same charismatic talent.

It is interesting that left leaning Democrats, the very same group that doesn’t support religion in general, would select Obama not based on his experience but on “faith” in his spirit of change.

As usual, McCain is far more concerned with what the lefties think of him that what his base thinks of him.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!
