The Case Against John McCain

Wow, here's a biggie:

McCain has exploited a loophole in his the campaign finance laws with his name on it, allowing over 60 million to be raised from some very, very rich donors for his general election fund - even though he has accepted public financing.

He's basically cheating the system, the one which he uses to show 'what a maverick' he is. What a bunch of bullshit.

Obama ought hit McCain hard over this, and make him explain to the American public why it's okay to violate laws he worked hard to pass - in detail.

And they truly are getting desperate.

McCain POW bud: Muslims 'going to kill us'

One of John McCain's fellow POW's in Vietnam defended the war in Iraq, saying, "The Muslims have said either we kneel or they're going to kill us.''

In a phone call with reporters arranged by the McCain campaign, Colonel Bud Day added: "I don't intend to kneel and I don't advocate to anybody that we kneel, and John doesn't advocate to anybody that we kneel.''

Colonel Bud Day is a Swift Boat Veteran for Truth; McCain's campaign refuses to disavow his comment.

The country is in the worst trouble since the great depression. We need something much more than the old, atrophied, brain of McCain running the country.

Obama is progressive, and has excellent judgment. He is the man who can get the country back on track to some degree.

Progressive? What exactly does that mean? Progressing to what end?

Excellant judgement? Yes, what fine judgement he has used in his personal life in selecting his church.

Thank you. I wish I were president so I could turn the country around. I am now convinced that the entire government has sold out to the lobbyists on K Street, meaning that corruption is running amok.

You have the same observation I have; it's rotten in Washington DC.

McCain adviser Gramm quits after 'whiners' remarks

By DEVLIN BARRETT, Associated Press Writer 27 minutes ago

NEW YORK - Former Texas Sen. Phil Gramm resigned Friday from his role as GOP presidential candidate John McCain's campaign co-chairman, hoping to quiet the uproar that followed his comments that the United States had become a "nation of whiners" whose constant complaints about the U.S. economy show they are in a "mental recession."

McCain, a bald-faced liar. He'd make an excellent Liar in Chief, definitely the equal of the current Liar in Chief.

McCain Owns First Foreign Policy Gaffe During Obama's Iraq Trip
As Barack Obama began his trip to the Middle East and Europe, the media was already speculating about the possibility of a gaffe. Obama's travel "carries political risk," the New York Times reported, "particularly if Mr. Obama makes a mistake."

But the only foreign policy error made in the last few days came this morning on ABC's Good Morning America, when John McCain made ANOTHER geography gaffe while trying to criticize Obama's visit to Iraq. (Just last week, McCain repeatedly referred to Czechoslovakia, a country that hasn't existed since 1993.)

Asked by Diane Sawyer whether the "the situation in Afghanistan in precarious and urgent," McCain responded: "I think it's serious. . . . It's a serious situation, but there's a lot of things we need to do. We have a lot of work to do and I'm afraid it's a very hard struggle, particularly given the situation on the Iraq/Pakistan border."

But as ABC's Rick Klein noted: "Iraq and Pakistan do not share a border. Afghanistan and Pakistan do."

Yeah, yeah lol

I'm sure we could come up with one for McCain thirty times as long. The point is that for a supposed foreign policy 'expert' McCain constantly makes the SAME MISTAKES over and over again; these aren't isolated instances.

As I've said several times already, McCain is senile. He doesn't know his geography or who our enemies are. What is more astounding is the simple fact that Americans want him to be our president. Go figure.

Possibly McCain's supposed foreign policy expertese is merely hype? An expert should at least be able to distinguish between Sunnis and Shias.

That's for dang sure! McCain can't even remember the simple stuff; what will he do as our president? Third term for Bush is a given if elected. McCain might start a new war in the Middle East by mistake.

Since Obama and McCain seem to agree on many issues, you could also say that an Obama win would also be a third term for Bush.

You could, but you wouldn't be accurate in doing so in any way, really.
