i hate john mccain because he is old selfish and just like george bush so if you vote for him you vote for bush!

Sparkie, which ego would be on top?

lucero (not to be confused with lucid which the author is anything but!) intimates that John McCain is a “warmonger”. Certainly anyone who has heard him speak would disagree. (Another reason for lucero to pull its head out of its backside!)

We do share a secret, but it is not a romantic remembrance of war. War is awful. When nations seek to resolve their differences by force of arms, a million tragedies ensue. Nothing, not the valor with which it is fought nor the nobility of the cause it serves, can glorify war. War is wretched beyond description. Whatever gains are secured by war, it is loss that the veteran remembers. Only a fool or a fraud sentimentalizes the cruel and merciless reality of war.

Neither do we share a nostalgia for the exhilaration of combat. That exhilaration, after all, is really the sensation of choking back fear. I think we are all proud to have once overcome the paralysis of terror. But few of us are so removed from the memory of that terror to mistake it today for a welcome thrill.

What we share is something harder to explain. It is in part a pride for having sacrificed together for a cause greater than our individual pursuits; pride for having your courage and honor tested and affirmed in a fearsome moment of history; pride for having replaced comfort and security with misery and deprivation and not been broken by the experience.

We also share — and this is harder to explain — the survivors’ humility. That’s a provocative statement, I know, and the non-veteran may easily mistake its meaning. I am not talking about shame. I know of no shame in surviving combat. But every combat veteran remembers those comrades whose sacrifice was eternal. Their loss taught us everything about tragedy and everything about duty.

-John McCain March 7, 1995

We are ALL prisoners of war.
We were not “all” physically held captive.
We are ALL being “financially” held captive by the past republicans and present John McCain to feed their greedy pockets.

I along with MANY friends were financially crippled in the 80′s when John McCain was “part of the KEATING 5″.
The savings and loan debacle.
He still has HIS pockets full of money while Texas had hundreds and hundreds of people who lost everything. Huuuuum.

Today McCain has all of these “words of wisdoom” (doom) on the “economy.
Just weeks ago he stated he knew “nothing” about the economy. Which is it? – it is ” whatever we will buy from his “rabbit in the hat” speeches.

The cheer leader Palin is running the clock to AVOID a debate.
Why won’t her hubby poo talk? Gee…………
She must be reading and studying her answers day and night.
She is not even CLOSE to qualified for V.P.

McCain is showing signs of anger and already wearing down in my eyes. He needs to give us “solutions”. He can not.
MKB in Texas

McQuaker oats is insane and a warmonger. He will promise everything and deliver nothing.
Notice the speakers who spoke Tuesday night, all old white men. All of them Chicken hawks and willing to send your children to war to save corporate america and protect the special interest groups. And to all those Evangelical and holy people, JESUS was liberal and not a conservative nor Republican.

Let’s just say that I do in fact pass the constitutional requirments to be elected President.

Not that anyone besides my mom would vote for me.

I think Mom would vote for me….?

Remember we live in America and freedom of expression is a constitutional right. its obvious that your head has been there. He who shows the path has walked it. McInsane is insane. But I.Q is not the problem on understanding McSlimes situation. He has never attained his Father and Grandfathers greatness. So he is willing to put himself first than country and drive this country to “Hell” and become “Commander in Chief”. When you start living out of a cardboardbox and eating leftovers from dogs maybe people will see through the veil of deception, greed, vanity, and arrogance.

I do however like Gulliani… I am not in complete agreement with him on everything. BUT he knows his own mind and isn’t afraid to say it.

Zsa Zsa,

I hope you don’t think I’m picking on you, ’cause I’m not. But what you say here about Rudy could just as easily be said of Nancy Pelosi, Charlie Rangel or even Ned Lamont.

You think Cheney is Scary? God forbit McMonger wins. We will have another war and maybe all you “Chicken Hawks” will be drafted to go fight for the Corporations and for the Rich. Don’t believe me! Then look at all the deferments that Bush, Cheney, and Runsfeld had.

Paranoia hits the screen. Its the old scare tactic. More than 70 percent of the people don’t believe the sky is falling. They do believe that slowly we will all become poor and i do mean poor. Have you checked your 401K? Good luck. Its amazing how some people’s I.Q. is lower than their space between their eyes. In any manner you will realize we are in trouble when you start living from cardboard boxes and eating leftovers from marauding dogs. Good Luck!

There is a old saying around my home range that warns us to not muddy the water cuz we may soon be drinking it.

Rob has some good points even without mentioning the Keating 5 scandal, but if McCain becomes the nominee in 08 ( how old?), all you writers will line up and sing his praises…so don’t muddy the water too much.

The wacko lefties create even more of a shift in the primaries vs the general election.

We will see how far to the left Billary shifts after the election if she gets the nomination. Hillary has been trying to fool people into believing she is a moderate or a conservative democrat because she knows a liberal senator for the east coast can not win in the south.

goon, I am with you on that. It would actually be nice to see a young Republican without the baggage come in and shake things up. IF rob would run for office I would vote for him. There is another Rob at File It Under who would be an awesome candidate too. They are my true choices. BUT they won’t take me seriously…

McCain is no more a Republican than Arlen Sphyncter or Lincolon Chaffee. And God forbid Mitt”every citizen should pay $2000 per month for health insurance” Romney get the nomination. Jeebus, what a fucking choice.

Thanks Dave, I have always thought I should be the Commish of baseball… I have to say that Gulliani is not any where near Pelosi or the rest of the way out and off the wall left. Bat One, Do you really think RG is like them?

I think McCain would beat the ice queen. However I don’t think it would make much difference in how fast the new President ran the country downhill.

I hate John McCain because John McCain is an evil, deceptive, hideous old ugly fart!!!!!!!, and, he’s a liar too.

Guliani, bad on gun control. That’s enough for me. Two thumbs down.

A large group of Mitt supporters are organizing an event to have as many Mitt supports as we can get to donate on December 7th. Sign the pledge at http://www.december7thformitt.com

Zsa zsa.
You need to be 35 to be Pres.
Whistler.
I don’t know. Maybe they can take a poll each morning to see which ego shall rule for the day.

Hate is such a strong word. I’d worry about better things to hate. Like Turkey Bacon. What a farce.
