McCain's Elusive Medical Records
Reporters started asking for medical records months ago. First, McCain’s aides said they’d release the information in March. Then, without explanation, they changed the date to April. Then, again without explanation, they changed the date to May.
CNN reported yesterday, “The McCain campaign said Wednesday the Arizona senator’s medical records will no longer be released by April 15. They now say the new timetable is ’sometime in May.’”

Again thank you for an excellent link! It would appear that Insane McCain's medical records are in the same boat as Hillary's tax returns. If they contain nothing bad, why not release them?
But more than the tax returns the easy-going MSM need to start pressing McCain for those North Vietnamese record regarding his time there that he so studiously took pains to have closed! Now there is some real information being concealed. The very fact he got them closed would suggest more to his collaboratation than has been acknowledged. The MSM needs to pursue these and other elements of McCain's very questionable past and bring them to light. I've never heard of a collaborator who was a real "war-hero." and I sure as hell don't believe Insane McCain was one either.
Why, those reporters didn't even mosey over from the "cabin" after eatin' and drinkin' with the McCain's all day to check out his Baptist church.

More than 1,000 Iraqi soldiers and policemen either refused to fight or simply abandoned their posts during the inconclusive assault against Shiite militias in Basra last week, a senior Iraqi government official said Thursday. Iraqi military officials said the group included dozens of officers, including at least two senior field commanders in the battle.

it'll be something along the lines of "so?"
McCrazy needs to be leaned on--heavily.
And BTW, when will this house of cards collapse, as it almost did recently?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credit_default_swap
In 1995, J.P. Morgan's Blythe Masters (a 26-year old Cambridge University graduate hired by the bank), developed the first Credit Default Swaps and Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO). On April 2, 2007, Masters (who by then was the head of J.P. Morgan's Global Credit Derivatives group), helped introduce CreditWatchTM to help evaluate credit swaps among other financial instruments.
By the end of 2007 there were an estimated USD 45 trillion worth of Credit Default Swap contracts.[2]
Masters is now CFO of JPMorgan and a Clinton supporter...
I'm sure Rachel Maddow will be talking about this tonight.
Rachel will be substituting for Keith Olbermann tonight on COUNTDOWN.
She'll be doing the whole show!

Supporting him would be like going into business with Enron AFTER you had examined their books and seen their accounting practices. Republicans seem happy to do it.
It is not just traditional media. Take a look at this enabling McCain loving story from Talking Points Memo this morning.
"McCain Returning General Election Checks, In Preparation For Public Finance"
"John McCain is now returning contributions totaling $3 million that were raised for the general election, in preparation for opting into the public finance system — a sign that he will not be attempting to privately raise the millions he would need to go up against the Democratic nominee, but which he has had trouble getting on his own.
Instead, the man known for campaign finance reform is asking his contributors to write checks to a new fund — a fund set up to help him pay legal fees and other expenses in his dealings with the public finance system."

Besides he a republican bush want to be and thus he cheats... would we expect less from any republican...no!
Lastly, it's Obama's to lose and that's not going to happen because the people are not going to stand for it!
Will voters see the danger in not knowing the true state of McCain’s health?
(The spin progresses as I write, so let me put my take down now.)
It was hard to miss the irony of McCain speaking on this day, in Memphis, at the very site of King's murder.
And seeing him on that balcony felt, well, just plain WRONG!
Oh yes, He admitted he was wrong and apologized about being against the MLK National Holiday back then, but he says he came to realize it, albeit too LATE.
....and while he said all the right things about Martin Luther, he also comes out of the very America that killed King, figuratively speaking.
Now that he would NON-figuratively send more men to be killed in the Middle East quagmire if elected, we must ask;
Are we to wait as long for him to realize he's also wrong about this war?
Not to say I don't enjoy your coverage of this. You are one of the few that gives a shit about it.
