McCain is senile

Actually he's not but the jury is out on you CI.

All the Republicans are doing now individualy and wholly is grasping for any type of scandal they can use against the Democratic presidential canidate in the next election period! The agenda will be solely to accomplish this, not to fix any real issues faced by our nation.

Actually, Cicerone, posters who theorize people like you and I are jealous of Sarah Palin deserve no response. Who really cares what people with limited imagination think? To ignore such suggestions is answer enough.

CI, you and I tend to agree on some stuff, but just like the evil word 'liberals', as used apparently only in the United States, 'conservatives' have long history and are not always muddled profligates, or skinflints, as the case may be.

Conservatives can probably be parsed into thinking (or not) groups, and so can liberals. Meantime a lot of people are growing independent.

There have been flashy conservatives in the news for a while now, but I'm not clear that people like Palin represent the whole, at all.

If McCain is actually dealing with senility issues, I'm sorry.

What you say is true; the GOP keeps creating crisis after crisis to remove the issue from their inability to govern to compromise and make our government work.

Sad, isn't it?

So can liberals, but tell me which issues the democrats/liberals have blown out of proportion the issues facing our country? I can name quite a few issues brought forward by the GOP that has been nothing but diversions from the important issues of our day.

It should be about our economy and jobs.

No thanks.

I've creds here as one of the most left types and I'm not happy with much going on in politics - but one of the things I'm least happy about is people hurling blanket labels instead of good argument.

Sticking with McCain, rather than the entire spectrum of Republicans, I didn't really like him when he first started using his celebrity as a POW to get elected. Lately he has seemed hysterical.

I don't blame the whole spectrum of republicans, but many members of congress are talking rubbish - even talking about the impeachment of President Obama.



I don't hear any reasonable conservative talking in defense of Obama.

Also,


This is the very first time in "contemporary" American history this is happening.

I didn't mean that as a criticism. I feel that the current elected Republicans are on a mission to turn this country into a fundamentalist state, not conservative or liberal, but bedrock and pretty much slaves to the moneyed interests. I just wanted to be sure my comment about McCain was not seen as a broader attack for the moment.

Sarah Palin couldn't even name a newspaper when asked by Katie Couric, let alone reference one.

I know you admire her ability to walk upright, but just because she's smarter than you doesn't mean she's clever.

Let's just remind ourselves how stupid Palin is. Not only is that the worst Sarkozy impression ever, but she didn't even know the name of the Canadian premier. She was the Governor of Alaska at the time, the part of America that is surrounded by Canada.

I bet she knows what a 'Couric' is and it's clear she is smarter than you could ever hope to be.

Palin may well be about 50% of the reasons Obama got elected twice.

apologizing for Palins "special mind" makes me wonder whether all Republicans are either incredibly stupid or just big liars.
What do you think spurt?

apologizing for Obamas "special mind" makes me wonder whether
democrats understand what his brand of liberalism is all about.

At least he has a mind, something you can only dream of.

On the scale of intelligence between squirt and Palin, it's minus 2 for squirt (brain dead), and plus one for Palin. At least Palin has men gawking at her (so she "must" be alive)!

Jizzy is usually good for a laugh or two, but CI is just sad.
