Ok!
Lets think about this?
Do you want experience or intellect?
McCain is the candidate who is a third Bush term.
This is the man who voted to send our bravest to die looking for weapons of mass destruction that did not exist.
This is the man who does not know that 9-11 was caused by Osama Bin Laden not Sedam Hussein.
This is the man who does not know if the Sunnis or Sheits are our enemies!
This is the man who put our government on the Japan, Saudi Arabia credit card.
This is the man has adopted virtually the entire Bush agenda, often reversing long held positions and compromising supposed core principles. From Iraq, tax cuts for the wealthy, broken promises on the deficit to opposition to SCHIP, tax credits for health care, overturning Roe v. Wade and a right-wing Supreme Court, John McCain represents a third Bush term.
Our only hope is Obama.

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

John McCains understanding of the economy.

Its all in your head folks.

John McCain says the economic downturn is psychological. Having on multiple occasions admitted his limited understanding of the economy, Senator McCain instead turned armchair psychologist to diagnose the U.S economic slowdown. In April, McCain told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto that a lot of our problems today, as you know, are psychological. Apparently, four months of job losses, oil at $130 a barrel, record gas prices at the pump, 47 million uninsured and a devastating home foreclosure crisis are merely figments of Americans’ imaginations.

John McCains understanding of the economy.

McCain says you are better off under George Bush.

John McCain says we made great progress economically during the Bush years. If Americans’ financial woes are all in their heads, John McCain’s assessment of George W. Bush’s economic leadership is pure hallucination. Asked by Bloomberg’s Peter Cook on April 17 if Americans would say they are better off today than before George Bush took office more than seven years ago, McCain replied:
I think if you look at the overall record and millions of jobs have been created, et cetera, et cetera, you could make an argument that there’s been great progress economically over that period of time.

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

John McCain’s understanding of the economy.

John McCain says eBay is the answer for poverty and recession. During his so-called Forgotten Places tour last month, John McCain offered the people of the economically devastated regions in Martin County, Kentucky and Youngstown, Ohio a path out of financial desperation: eBay. Today, for example, McCain said, 1.3 million people in the world make a living off eBay, most of those are in the United State of America. If that sounds like something McCain’s national campaign co-chair and former eBay CEO Meg Whitman might say, it’s because she did. In March, she told Lesley Stahl on 60 Minutes, We have about - around the world, about 1.3 million people make most, if not all, of their living selling on eBay. I try to make a little bit of extra money selling on Ebay.
Let me tell you when people are having a difficult time filling up their gas tank.
Paying their mortgage and putting food on the table they are not buying on eBay.
Also we eBay sellers do not have health insurance.
Please ask Meg Whitman why she left Ebay when the bottom fell out?

John McCain’s understanding of the economy.

John McCain says we should tear down New Orleans?

McCain kicked off his tour in New Orleans, where he lambasted George W. Bush’s handling of the Katrina disaster. (As it turns out, McCain’s criticism was choreographed with the White House as part of a coordinated effort to create the facade of distance between McCain and President Bush.) There, McCain would not commit to the future of the city’s devastated 9th ward:
That’s why we need to go back to have a conversation about what to do about it. Rebuild it? Tear it down? Ya know, whatever it is.
Just three days later, McCain claimed selective amnesia about his New Orleans comments, saying, I don’t remember ever saying it. Perhaps John McCain remembers celebrating his 69th birthday with President Bush on August 29, 2005, just as Hurricane Katrina slammed ashore.

Should we also tear down the Midwest that is now under water?

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

John McCain’s understanding of the economy.

McCain says you should work a second job, skip a vacation. In his March 25, 2008 speech, the Republican nominee made it clear that selling Barbie dolls or Hummel figurines on eBay isn’t John McCain’s only prescription for Americans facing economic difficulties. The other? Just work harder. McCain encouraged Americans to emulate the 51 million homeowners doing what is necessary — working a second job, skipping a vacation, and managing their budgets — to make their payments on time. How about just marring a millionaire and never having to worry about the economy?

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

John McCain says:

Baghdad safer than some American neighborhoods. John McCain’s isn’t merely out of touch when it comes to Americans’ real lives at home. He is consistently nonchalant about the dangers – and casualties – U.S. troops face in Iraq.
Wearing a bulletproof vest and guarded by 100 American soldiers, with three Blackhawk helicopters, and two Apache gunships overhead, McCain on April Fool’s Day 2007 briefly toured a Baghdad market to demonstrate that the American people were not getting the full picture.
McCain recently claimed that there are neighborhoods in Baghdad where you and I could walk through those neighborhoods, today. In a press conference after his Baghdad tour, McCain told a reporter that his visit to the market today was proof that you could indeed walk freely in some areas of Baghdad.
In March 2008, Senator McCain returned to a tried and untrue Republican talking point: Iraq is no more dangerous than most major American cities. McCain announced, There’s problems in America with safe neighborhoods as we well know. In this case, at least, even McCain realized his statement was nonsensical on its face and sounded the retreat. I’m not making that comparison, because it’s much more deadly in Iraq obviously, he said, adding, But it’s kind of the same theory. Apparently, McCain’s theory applies whether the United States maintains a permanent military presence in Iraq for 100, 1000 or even a million years.

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

John McCain cares about children? Think Again!

Opposed to SCHIP expansion, McCain speaks at children's hospital. Last October, John McCain joined George W. Bush in opposing the expansion of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP), calling Bush's veto a right call by the president. Of course, that didn't stop McCain from rolling out his health care proposals a few weeks ago at Miami Children's Hospital, a Florida medical institution which last fall publicly supported the S-CHIP expansion he opposed. In a further irony, while McCain decried new mandates and government regulation, 9 year-old Jake Bernard who was spotlighted at the event received treatment for his cleft palate thanks to a statute passed by the state of Florida. So much for McCain's pledge to work to eliminate the worries over the availability and cost of health care.

THE INTELLECT OF JOHN MCCAIN

McCain said I'm not running on the Bush presidency.

On April 1, 2008, John McCain offered Americans another April Fool's joke, proclaiming I'm not running on the Bush presidency. McCain might want to check his campaign's position papers. After all, in his eternal quest for the Republican nomination, McCain has adopted virtually the entire Bush agenda, often reversing long held positions and compromising supposed core principles. From Iraq, tax cuts for
the wealthy, broken promises on the deficit to opposition to SCHIP, tax credits for health care, overturning Roe v. Wade and a right-wing Supreme Court, without question John McCain represents a third Bush term.

Good job In "John McCain's Own Words"!
I can't wait until the Obama campaign does a commercial with John McCains statements.
I hope they also feature him calling his wife a "trollop and c*unt" that should help with the womans vote.

Davidg11:05AMJun 24th 2008

"All in context".

You may want to explain that phrase to Obama supporters, they do not seem to know the meaning of context.

Subj: FW: Post Turtle

While suturing a cut on the hand of a Texas Rancher whose hand had been caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually, the topic got around to Obama and his bid for the presidency.

The old rancher said, Well, ya know, Obama is a 'post turtle'.

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked, 'What is a post turtle'?

The old rancher said, When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.

The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain.

'You know he didn't get up there by himself, he sure as heck doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there and you just wonder what kind of an idiot put him there in the first place.'

You really show the intellect of a McCain voter!

I love the fact that you are sitting here blogging about the color of a mans skin! Disparaging one of the oldest religions in the world. And using profanity to try to get people to side with your intellect, fat chance moron!
That is what this nation has to worry about!?!?
God you are stupid if you think that will win the election for another for years of McCain/Bush!
When McCain will follow Bush's lead and put the US economy on the Japan, Saudi Arabia credit card.
Then in a few years when the Japanese and Arabs call in the loans they will take over the US. Then English will become our second language and Japanese and Arabic will the languages of the USA. When are all you people going to realize that eventually you have to pay back your loans! The US can't just file bankruptcy. Or is that what is happening to our economy as we sit here and blog.

Susan From AZ11:16AMJun 24th 2008

I am supporting John McCain,
because he supports a guest worker program,
It is said that there are 15 million illegal people in this country? WOW! Just what would happen to the US economy if we have 15,000,000 less low wage workers. Will we then have to encourage our children to not go to college and become:
Dishwashers,
field workers,
work construction,
hotel room cleaners, etc.?
Living in Arizona I started thinking about what would happen if these people were taken to the boarder and sent home. In the summer when the heat is 110 how many Americans would be willing to get on a roof of a new house and lay tile? How many Americans will be willing to work for less then minimum wage and go into the fields and pick vegetables, cotton and fruit? How much will I have to pay for produce when all the Mexican workers are again living in Mexico?
How much will a bottle of California wine cost if we had to hire American workers to pick grapes?

"McCain has to hold Obama accountable directly because the mainstream news media will not."

THIS SAYS IT ALL ABOUT BARACK OBAMA AND THE MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA WHICH HAS BEEN BOUGHT BY THE LIBERAL LEFT TO SHOVE THIS AMATEUR DOWN THE THROATS OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

On the Obama Bus11:21AMJun 24th 2008

Do you ever wonder why so many people are getting on the Barack Hussein Obama bus?

Could it be that this nation is becoming colorblind and does not care if a good person is black, white, red or tan?

Could it be that the American people don't care if a person worships as a Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, or Jew?

Could it be that people remember the scandals of the Clinton And Bush years?

Could it be that the American people know that if it was not for the Clinton's filth and scandals that Al Gore would be completing his second term in office.

Could it be that the American people remember Bush and McCain looking into our eyes and saying, believe me there are weapons of mass destruction?

Could it be that the American people are shell shocked that over 4,000 precious lives have been lost fighting the wrong war in the wrong country against the wrong enemy?

Could it be that the American people realize that Carl Rove politics brought our nation to where it is today?

REPLACE-DEMS-IN-CONGRESS11:31AMJun 24th 2008

OBAMA HAS LOST CREDIBILITY.

THE DNC AND BIASED MEDIA "SELECTED" THIS CANDIDATE --- OBAMA WAS NOT "ELECTED". HILLARY SHOULD BE THE DEMOCRATIC CANDICATE.

I DO NOT TRUST BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA. HE HAS TOLD TOO MANY LIES. HE HAS TOO MANY TIES TO TERRORISTS AND ANTI-AMERICANS.

IF THERE IS ANOTHER TERRORIST ATTACK (ON OR OFF AMERICAN SOIL) WE WILL NEED JOHN McCAIN.

THE ONLY HOPE OBAMA INTENDS TO DELIVER IS HIS OWN HOPE FOR THE KEYS TO THE U.S. TREASURY SO HE AND HIS ANTI-AMERICAN CRONIES CAN FILL THEIR POCKETS.

VOTE FOR JOHN McCAIN IN 2008.
