DISQUS

The self destruction going on in both campaigns is incredible...

Leave it alone, it's a friggin diversion. It's better to have people chuckle at a stupid remark like this than to continue probing into the real policies.

well yes, except that now McCain's the one that has to defend his staff's stupidity.... McCain won't discuss the issues in anything other than absolute statements, ie "I know how to win wars." "I know how to fix the economy." ect... and he won't answer direct. specific questions about his policies either... so this is what his campaign is about... fantastical claims, having to back off and deflect / defend... I'd say that THIS is one of the issues of this election... Part of this election is turning out to be -- at least for McCain's campaign -- how much of your honor and principles are you willing to sell to claim the election?

It's sad really, but I don't think this election ever had a chance of being elevated out of the gutter with the current bunch of repubs still in power.... and they don't mind dragging everyone down with them....

Still Obama's talking policy, outlining what his vision for America is and how he plans to do it... personally, I think it's a win for Obama if McCain keeps wallowing... It shows in an absolute, clear fashion what the character of each is.

Holtz-Eakin was not "joking." He was, without irony, puffing up McCain's thin economic resume yesterday on the Diane Rehm show (NPR). In just as unconvincing, and even silly, terms.

He probably thinks everybody's talking about the fruit, not an electronic device.

After Mooselini spoke and while McAged was speaking people were spotted filing out of the today's event...
Ha! Ha! Ha!
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Yeah, this was funny. But I don't think we should keep harping on it. It's not gonna make some undecided suddenly go for Obama. Instead it's going to make the left look as stupid as the right did during the lipstick shtick. Let iot go. Bad shit is happening in the country. Focus on that and Obama will get elected.

Hm, not a very funny joke. What's the punchline? That we may end up with another four years of Team Bush?

shrrrr · 1 year ago

Yup.

Don't you get it? YOU and me....we're the punchline.

They think we're the joke.

Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago

that was a joke from the campaign??

where's the rape? I must've missed it... I thought all his jokes had a rape in them?

curlytoes79 · 1 year ago

If Palin/McCain end up in the White House because they've distracted the public with all of these non-issues..... they'll spend the next four years raping us!!

Pretty funny huh??? :-/

Who said it was a joke?

Bush_Bites · 1 year ago

OT:

And here comes a nasty fastball high and inside.

Schumer and Reid demand McCain release his medical records.

d'Oh!!

sukabi1 · 1 year ago

his financial records as well, and that includes Ms. Cindy's....

and Ms. Palin's financials haven't been released yet... where are they???

ZennButtKicker (tlhwraith) · 1 year ago

Btw, if you follow the logic train being asserted, that sitting on a committee that deals with a subject makes you qualified to claim credit for advances in that subject, then Barack Obama can claim that the lack of a terrorist attack since 2004 is partly his doing because he sits on the homeland security committee......

This is now known as The Sarah Palin Experiential Theorem

zadura · 1 year ago

Wrong. Sitting on Committees is evidence that you invented chairs...

With Bush we all prepared ourselves for the one big lie every week or so and we would cringe and in a couple of days forget about it and say "Oh well". With this ass blanket not a single day passes without one major lie. The they lie about the lie, or say they never said it and the day say it again. It is so circular that it is like being sucked into a black hole where all matter is crushed and the universe becomes the size of a speck of pepper. The lie upon lie has worn me out. I can't even remember which are lies, what they are and when they lied about the lie. Right now I am not sure what is fact or fiction what is art or artifact, what is real or surreal, what is horseshit or just plain compost. I'm tired and if I not careful I may take up drinking again. I have the a new name for the McCain/Palin bus.

THE LOONEY TUNES EXPRESS......That's all Folks!

Proving it is the stupid lies about stupid bullshit that people pay attention to.

But, did he invent the Burberry?

benb · 1 year ago

There are over 60 current & former telecom iobbyists working on his campaign:

Is that why my cell phone, landline, DSL, and long distance services suck? Because of McCain's 'guiding hand' and the battalion of lobbyists that innovate for us?

dad · 1 year ago

let's see him use one.

rexkc · 1 year ago

He also invented smoke signals and the telegraph.
