    Wait for it......................the Forked Tongue Express will revise, redo, repeat, retract, rework, reward, re-something in 1...2...3...

    Anything but RE-ad the Constitution. All men or something in there.

    B-b-but! John McCain is a straight-shootin' maverick who has the courage of his convictions and the faith of his fathers! This isn't flip-flopping! He would never do that--only Democrats do that! No, it's "clarification."

    "...rather than put the kids to sleep,..."

    Ouch. Good one, JA.

    Wow! It's like looking in a mirror! I oppose hetro guys that leave their first families for aging petrified pill poppin' former rodeo queens who happen to be $100 million dollar Sugar Mommas and doing it for political gain.

    Oh McSame, you've done it again!

    Reminds me. Did you hear about the proposal put forth by Bob Hagan here in Ohio to ban Republicans from adopting kids? It was in response to a proposal to ban adoption by gays. Hagan is priceless!

    How is the Cheney family working out that gay adoption dilemma for their grandson?

    its called a trust fund.

    mary doesn't give a flying fuck for public opinion... she has money AND lawyers. who needs the gay community?

    I feel sorry for Heather when her boobs start to sag though.

    Well, my first choice wouldn't be to put a child with a drug addict either.

    OOH!!! that's frickin' PERFECT!

    now, if only someone in the press had the balls to follow up the question about gay adoption with

    "Senator mccain, how do you feel about drug addicts as adoptive parents? are they more or less desirable than gays?"

    He's treading on very shaky ground, someone might start asking about his own kids and how they've fared with him abandoning the first set to ride off with a washed up rodeo queen... and they might question if he treats his adopted child the same as his natural children....
  • Soundboy_jeff_meanie · 1 year ago
    You must be talking about the FOREIGN press... nobody in this country would ever do that.
  • sukabi1 · 1 year ago
    You'll notice Soundby_jeff that I didn't mention the press, they're useless tools of GOP propaganda, but a good blog / viral effort might pay off....

    Wow! I'm so proud of McCain! The Republican party is getting really progressive! All those Gay Republicans out there must really be making a difference!

    Why, just twenty years ago, we used to beat, bludgeon and run over Gays with big honkin' trucks here in Helms country! Now they can adopt if nobody wants the kids! Kewl!

    Wow. Those Log Cabin Republicans are really making progress over there..........or not!

    He can't be THAT proud of having an adopted daughter since he chose not to call out Bush and Rove for that 2000 smear that she was his love child with a black hooker.

    This is a major issue that just doesn't get the attention it deserves. What kind of a person would be content to see a child remain in foster care than be adopted by a loving, caring same sex couple. On the HBO special on Rosie's cruise, the male parents of the newborns was just amazing! I didn't think you guys had it in you! I was so impressed, and I''ve never gotton over it!

    So a gay couple who has been together for fifteen or twenty years - they aren't good enough to be adoptive parents, but this asshole who leaves his first wife and hooks up with a druggy while still technically married to wifey number one - is. I'm sorry, but I grew up in a home filled with emotional and physical abuse. It was a nice nuclear family and we went to church twice a week. If you asked me who'd I'd rather have lived with - my parents - or the two gay men who lived one street over - my ten year old ass would have immediately said - let me pack my bags. It doesn't matter what gender the couple is as long as you provide that child with a loving, stable environment. People like McCain make me sick.
