McCain is a f*ckin' sell-out
He's spouting a bunch of crap on Fox News Sunday right now.

What a pig! Complete tool of the neo-con wackos...

A bunch of crap about how much " * grieves for these brave young americans."

What a monumental sell-out... I wouldn't vote for this clown for dog catcher...

1. McCain is a hawk
He's never shied away from war. AND the only thing he stands firm on is the "pork" in the budget because he can look more moderate that way.

2. Not to mention the fact he is a conservative Republican.
Why would you ever consider voting for him?

6. I wouldn't

10. I've seen recent speculation here....
about a 2008 McCain/Kerry ticket -- and it was fairly supportive. So I tend to recoil at the mention of his name here.

Agree about the sudder and :puke:

18. Nope. The machines STILL would've switched Kerry votes to Bush and
the GOP operatives STILL would've padded vote totals all over the country for Bush.

Kerry's problem was NOT not enough votes. It was the machines SWITCHING his votes to Bush INTERNALLY.

28. Although I don't want to rehash the voting
irregularities, which were many, I can't get past the fact that Kerry conceeded the election the next morning. How can we, who all supported Kerry, continue support for someone who did not fight for his own votes. That's my big problem with him. We all know that this will likely happen again and that's why we need someone ready to fight at the coming elections. We damm well know that the pubs would fight like hell!!

29. What we need to do is expose the machines. MacAuliffe didn't take rigging
seriously enough to have the machines inspected BEFORE and during the voting to assure accuracy.

In Ohio, the court was completely GOP controlled and the real evidence needed was impossible to attain.

No doubt they had the machines programmed to erase any evidence that would have been needed. Probably erased the minute after they sent in their tallies.

Hopefully, Dean takes the machine rigging seriously and his tactic of putting more Dems up for Sec of State offices will produce the much needed access to the machines and their operators.

24. Nah. I certainly wouldn't have voted for Kerry/McCain
And I know lots of other progressives that would have stayed home.

3. Johnny still thinks that if he kisses ass in the party
the gop will let him run for prez with the party's blessing. Ain't no way he's getting anywhere near the nomination.

5. Bingo!
That's why he agrees with everything the Chimp does or says... He wants to inherit the mantle of George W Bush.

8. I say, Yes and no
Yes, he kisses ass to help secure his nomination chances. But I think there's a big chance he'll run for president in 08. Ad if he does, he's got a very good chance of winning the whole enchilada.

20. He could've walked in on '00
But the gop had other ideas then. See Swift Boat Veterans and the South Carolina fiasco.

7. The funny thing is ...
I agree, he sold out, and he sold out to Buschco ... The same people who fragged him down in SC ... Now, he whored himself out in defending Rove, and now is banging the party in general while somehow kissing Bushco's butt ...

What is sad is, they are pimping him ... He is NOT one of their kind, and in the end, they WILL screw him ...

He is one of the few R/Cons with any honor, but he sold out the devil ...

14. Been voting the lesser of 2 evils for awhile now.
Now it almost doesn't matter. We don't decide who wins anymore.

Diebold & company does.

16. Hard to sell out when you had no integrity to begin with.
All praise is due to his service to the country and all but his politics have never been for the good of the people as far as I know.

22. I SO
Edited on Sun Aug-14-05 07:33 PM by laylah
agree! I used to respect the man. Was even dedicated to voting for him if he had run in '04. Then the "hug", and all of the other "let's support *dumbass"...he IS a sell-out and a loser! All I feel now for him is disdain!

25. Guess he liked his stay in Hanoi and all the LIES that went with VN...
You'd think after all his time in captivity he'd be 100% against Wars based on LIES and BULLSHIT. I still think Bush has nude pictures of him and em..something.

30. He earned that title in 2000,
after he ass-kissed BushCo, even after smears on his child.

31. You can fool some of the people some of the time
and you can fool all of the people some of the time
but you can't fool all the people all the time...

and McCain's bullshit cover is totally blown.
