Ad pulled that attacks McCain for having skin cancer

[jillian]

I will talk a little slower, if you have an issue with his health DO NOT VOTE FOR HIM IT IS YOUR ONLY RECOURSE AND LITTLE LIBERAL TEMPER TANTRUMS WILL NOT HELP YOU IN THIS MATTER.

No one is throwing a temper tantrum snookums. You're deflecting because you have nothing to say.

Thanks for playing.

In other words, you know you're full of garbage.

Like I said. If his medical records are public POST A LINK TO THEM. I'm not really interested in some wingnut site saying he "offered" to make them public.

Try again.

been there done that, this is only about the 18th discussion on the topic. Do you need a secretary? Or are you just too lazy to do your research? Easier to attack maybe? I love it when I get to tell liberals they cannot control things. you may continue running around your mulberry bush!



Kerry on!

A little twisting of the facts AGAIN?

The add never attacked him for having cancer. It said that he should release all his medical records. Not that unusual for a presidential candidate.

Talk about skewing the debate.

It does say he gave his records to "select" media outlets. I don't know what that means.

I'd say that puts the ad somewhere up there with the ones about obama's birth certificate.

That said,

McCain himself, in NewsHour a newsmaker interview with Jim Lehrer in 2000, said he thought he might be too old to run for president.

“By 2008, I think I might be ready to go down to the old soldiers’ home and await the cavalry charge there,” he said.

And with regard to the medical records themselves:

The Arizona senator is still as risk for a return of skin cancer after he had several malignant spots removed. Still, doctors say, McCain has no major areas of concern, and his health records show consistent examinations every few months.

Which still puts us at major risk of a palin presidency should he win.

Luckily for me I don't work for you. I am not of the "working class"

I will talk slowly.... one,,,,, he did makes his records available, generouls of him. second..... you have no right to his medical records,,,,, they are protected by a thing called HIPPA. Your only recourse is to NOT VOTE FOR HIM IF HIS HEALTH SCARES YOU

McCain let "select outlets" look at his thousands of pages of medical records for, I believe it was, 3 hours. Thats not "making his records available".

And no we have no right to his medical records as far as legality goes, but he can choose to make them publicly available and the fact that he hasn't, is worrisome, especially since its obvious he chose a VP without much consideration.

Wow...almost a response. Not a particularly bright one... but an effort at wittiness... cute.

Judges in NY have mandatory retirement at 70.

And again, try following... if he picked someone smart and capable for VP, it wouldn't be as much of a concern.

When it comes to giving someone the most powerful position in the world? Yes, I'd like to make sure that in as many ways as possible, including health, they are stable.

Blacks suffer from more diseases than whites. If you're going to allow age discrimination, maybe you should allow racial discrimination. Might as well use a little common sense here, eh?

Diabetes is 60% more common in black Americans than in white Americans. Blacks are up to 2.5 times more likely to suffer a limb amputation and up to 5.6 times more likely to suffer kidney disease than other people with diabetes.
African-Americans are three times more likely to die of asthma than white Americans.
Deaths from lung scarring -- sarcoidosis -- are 16 times more common among blacks than among whites. The disease recently killed former NFL star Reggie White at age 43.
Despite lower tobacco exposure, black men are 50% more likely than white men to get lung cancer.
Strokes kill 4 times more 35- to 54-year-old black Americans than white Americans. Blacks have nearly twice the first-time stroke risk of whites.
Blacks develop high blood pressure earlier in life -- and with much higher blood pressure levels -- than whites. Nearly 42% of black men and more than 45% of black women aged 20 and older have high blood pressure.
Cancer treatment is equally successful for all races. Yet black men have a 40% higher cancer death rate than white men. African-American women have a 20% higher cancer death rate than white women.

Ads like these "disappoint" Joe Biden, and Heaven knows we wouldn't want the poor dear to have another aneurysm.
