A John McCain Administration

[midcan5]

Once Upon a Time in America By Robert Fantina

"Anyone interested in light-hearted, fanciful reading, need look no farther than the ‘John McCain for President’ website. There the reader will find a curious mix of fantasy, unintended humor and the fruits of a mind-boggling imagination. Let us take a look at a few of the gems offered by Mr. McCain.

Under the curious heading, ‘Human Dignity and the Sanctity of Life,’ there are several sub-headings, too numerous to study here. But one of them is titled ‘Protecting Marriage.’ Mr. McCain, we are told “… believes the institution of marriage is a union between one man and one woman.” And Mr. McCain’s beliefs, apparently, are too be forced down the throats of all and sundry. The senator is, of course, an expert on marriage between one man and one woman. A full month elapsed between the dissolution of his marriage to the injured and partially crippled Carol and his wedding to the beautiful, young Cindy. So he can boast that both his marriages were between one man (used twice) and one woman (two different ones, of course). Prince Charming and his two Cinderellas! Although the second one apparently has the means to purchase more castles than Mr. McCain can count."

Jeez, where are the wingnuts to defend these substantive actions by their hero John 'Leave em4money' McCain?



A vote for John McCain is a vote against the fundamental principle of America, the right of the individual to lead their life privately without the government interfering.

John McCain the family values president!

That's already been tossed around in here. It's old news, and the fact of the matter is, he's on good terms with his ex.

 

[Red Dawn]

His wife was disfigured in a car accident, he cheated on her, and then left her?

I guess republicans don't care about moral character anymore. I guess that was just a campaign slogan.

Sounds like Newt Gingrich! Oops!

...

Bill Clinton? Eli Spitzer? John Edwards? Let's not put it all on the Republicans now.

Just keep focusing your attention on nonsense folks.

That's exactly what BOTH parties want from you.

What bullshit, Ali. Wright is old news. Ayers is 40 years old news, but it's okay to bring that up. You do that quite a bit I've noticed. If it attacks your side, it's old news. If it's against the left, it is written in stone for eternity.,

Too many on the right fringe are hippo crips. They can talk about person, never convicted, and associate him to Obama who was 8 frigging years old when Ayers was a terrorist.

McCain left his wife after she gained weight from medication taken for an accident. He cheated on his wife who waited for him when he was a POW. Now that is real character, Ali.

But I guess if he hasn't had sex with Larry Craig, he's a okay with you.

Are any of them running for president right now?

Stay on topic please.

McCain has dealt with the issue of his infidelity and divorce OPENLY many times thru his political career...

Hell.. the guy went thru a TON after coming back from being a POW... he has fully admitted his transgressions on the issue...

Obama, on the other hand, has not admitted any transgression in terms of the terrorist Ayers... and lord knows Ayers is not repentant at ALL about his terrorist actions.. in fact, he has stated that he did not do enough... Obama has aligned himself with some of the most radical and despicable possible, and the media just gives him a free ride

McCain, like most every human, has made his mistakes in his life... but Obama makes McCain look like a freaking saint

Clinton did it while he was President. The topic seemed to be Democrats inferring that only Republicans have turned their backs on their morals, so I simply made a point.

My point wasn't to condemn Democrats though, my point was that regardless of their political party people make mistakes.

You mean like you all stay on subject by claiming McCain is Bush term 3? That McCain is Bush lite? Like how you keep trying desperately to make McCain a vote for Bush?

Ayers is NOW, he has openly admitted he did not do enough and wished he blown more stuff up. He got off on technicality and never paid for his crimes. And Obama is in bed with him. That is NOW, not old news at all.

Wright is NOW, Obama only supposedly left his church NOW because it was politically expedient to do so. Obama has a current 20 YEAR history with Wright. A man he was claiming as a trusted advisor . confidant , spiritual leader, personal family friend and trusted Uncle figure just MONTHS ago, until it became a anchor around his neck when we found out the man was a racist and wished God would kill off whitey for him, when we discovered Wright thinks the US Government invented AIDS to murder the black race. And then he only tossed him under the bus when Wright said he knew it was only a ploy that he was distancing himself from Wright.

McCain's former wife is 40 year old news, dealt with for the last 40 years Ayers and Wright are CURRENT news. Ignored by the press and you left wing kooks.

It doesn't matter, he was a POW, don't you know? When he actually stumbles out of bed one night at 3 AM, strung out on Ambien, and sleep walks into the war room and pushes THE BUTTON, it won't matter, because he was a POW!!!

You are as ignorant as a box of rocks. Lets address how the launch of Nuclear weapons actually occurs shall we?

The President only has the Authority to launch them on his own power if it is an emergency, he is required to notify congress if at all possible. There is no mythical "red button" in the war room. An Officer carries a case with codes and launch material and the President has to work with him to activate said launch system.

It is physically impossible for the President to wake up and in a dazed sleep walk launch nuclear weapons. But hey you guys are the masters at fear mongering, go ahead and try and sell that as an excuse not to vote for McCain.

I'm not so much worried about his "pressing the button." I'm worried about his foreign policy, his unwillingness to resort to diplomacy, and his self-professed lack of knowledge on the economy. And I am not a "left-wing kook."

Metaphors go right over your head, right?

Are you worried about Obama's socialism, racism or Industry destroying taxation plans? His plans to create massive new Government social programs and at the same time somehow get us more jobs and out of debit?

I live in the real world. We have 2 viable options. Obama or McCain. And I KNOW which will be worse for the Country and the World.

No shit! I'm so sick of hearing how he was a POW! He acts like he's the only fucking person who suffered during that war. There are thousands of veterans who he has turned his back on for political gain! He pulls out the POW card to deflect the fact that he's completely out of touch with what the American people want and need.

There used to be a guy in my neighborhood that was a POW. Nice old guy, he was a POW in WW2. He never talked about it or expected special consideration.

He was also pretty squirrely in the head, but he still managed to have a good life.
