    Joe, Joe, Joe;

    You forgot the Corporate Media meme.

    Only McCain was a war hero; all other military veterans are garbage.

    Keep that in mind, please.

    That's right. . .McCain singledhandedly also liberated the USS Forrestal.

    Oh man:

    Just noticed two new ads on your site and, I assume, all over Google.

    Imagine that: McCain wants to eliminate Social Security and they're accusing Obama of trying to destroy it.

    God, I hate conservative scum.

    there is more than one hero in America?
  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    Our "Mission Accomplished" Commander in Chief has passed his codpiece on to his chosen successor.

    And McCain wears it with pride (as well as with a little itching and skin irritation).

    Thank you for saving the lives of others, Mr. Payne.

    Now if we could only find some heroes to save America.

    Maybe CBS will air this story. . .and change the name to McSame. At this point, I can see the network contending that McSame was not only a POW, but singlehandedly liberated all of the POWs in a daring Rambo move that served as the original story for the movies neo-cons love to masturbate about today.

    suggested movie title: John McSame, MIA (?)
    Filmed on location in Czechoslovakia and on the Iraq/Pakistani border.

    Can someone explain to me why military experience is a requirement for the Presidency? oh right...white trash rednecks are blinded by the flags wrapped around their heads, clutching their crosses. Sorry, I forgot.

    Let's see:
    1) The Bush family did big business with the Nazi war machine.
    2) Bush was either AWOL or was a deserter during the Vietnam War.
    3) McCain got shot down and made an enemy propaganda film.
    4) Obama's uncle helped liberate a Nazi work camp and learned from a prisoner who spoke another language the magnitude of the Nazi atrocities.

    MSM conclusions:
    1) Bush served honorably in the military, and we don't talk about that Nazi stuff because it's simply impolite;
    2) McCain is a War Hero For Unspecified Reasons and learned so much in captivity that he Knows How to Win Wars, including presumably, Vietnam;
    3) Obama lied about his uncle, who (oops!) now appears to be alive, available to actual investigative reporters, and is now telling a story that we're unfamiliar with (i.e., the truth, leavened with wisdom and courage).

    Listening to a BushCo apologist on CSPAN speaking about "conservation" and development of "alternative fuels" made me realize that all those millionaires on Capitol Hill, driven around in huge SUVs and limosines, wined and dined by lobbyists, flying here and there, and staunch supporters of the moribund capitalism that exists in the US, will never come up with a decent energy policy.

    I've never wanted a revolution so much in this country as I do today.
