The GOP's politicization of 9/11: offensive?

Very.

Gross.

Talk about bad taste, these moral majority members have lost any common sense.

don't tell me that republicans don't like pornography.

Wasn't the use of 9-11 also an issue during the 2004 election?

Sadly, it seems the best they can do.

But because most of the people only remember the last thing they heard it works.

I guess democrats think the attacks of September 11th are not worth remembering.

Remembering 9/11 as a tragedy that affected all Americans is one thing.

Using it as a crass tool to score partisan political points at a campaign rally is quite a different thing altogether.

It's one thing that the democrats refuse to do - shame on the democrats.

Democrats refuse to use 9/11 as a crass tool to score partisan political points.

They were just a bunch of pimps last night on that tip. It was tasteless and irreverent.

That's not true. They constantly use it with a negative tone.

I was in a local hangout when Rudy was doing his speech, the minute he mentioned 9/11 people actually started laughing. They obviously weren't laughing at the tragic event, but rather Rudy's endless, mind numbing, grasp on glory.

And that's what is happening with McCain and his POW status in Vietnam, "I'm the greatest hero of this country."

Obama: McCain focused on biography over economy

By PHILIP ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writer 2 hours, 1 minute ago

DURYEA, Pa. - Democrat Barack Obama called Republican rival John McCain's acceptance speech the final piece of an out-of-touch convention that focused on its nominee's biography instead of the struggles of the middle class.

"If you watched the Republican National Convention over the last three days, you wouldn't know that we have the highest unemployment in five years because they didn't say a thing about what is going on with the middle class," Obama told workers at a specialty glass factory.

You should have excused yourself and walked out.

Obama's only plan is to attack McCain's plan.

But what is unfortunate is the fact that the pimps can continue to pimp 9/11 alongside the same tired bs and continue to garner support.
Friends here in Canada joke that this election should be a no brainer for the Amwerican people. The joke is that it requires no brain to continue to support failed, sometimes regressive, policies.
I genuinely fear that Obama will lose the election because the American people (generally speaking) are illequipped to activate the bull*shit filters and see the blatant lies told by McCain, Palin et al.
It really has become quite sad.
