Obama admin's OPM, headed by a gay man, reportedly blocks lesbian from getting health benefits
2) If you are under 50 years old, you were a kid during Vietnam, no one cares, and gas prices are still high, so this is only appealing to his base.
3) I hope McSAME makes this the center piece of his campaign so Biden can Tear it apart.
4) I think you will see a tidal shift in the polls to Obama after the first debate.
mccaain's invoking his pow experience so randomly too is absurd. but i am more quickly realizing that it is the only thing he brings to the table.
last night, one of the speakers so tactfully addressed mccains advanced age! he said something to the effect: it does not matter how much time you have spent in the senate, or on the earth. it was so subtle that it took a few seconds for the audience to pick it up. but they really loved it!
but then he says, he himself has four houses. One less than John Kerry.
right.
both parties have rich guys. the difference is our rich guys care about the rest of us. GOPer rich guys want to hog it all for themselves and their cronies and if they have to start wars and destroy the planet to do that, so what?
Besides the physical abuse, their diet was really bad. The guy I knew at one point went 212 days with nothing to eat except pumpkin soup.
Probably not John. Which kind of sucks for us. It is something we are going to have to deal with for the rest of the campaign.
And there is nothing laudable about his experience. He produced propaganda for our enemies, and he put himself in that position in the first place because he was such a poor pilot (he crashed his plane 4 other times)
John McCain could learn a lot from Mr. Collins.
Sheesh. It's all so confusing.

But there’s more: Romney’s real estate portfolio apparently puts to shame even McCain’s eight properties. According to the ex-gov’s financial disclosure forms filed when he was running for president, Romney holds an interest in 51 different properties through the Whitehall Real Estate Funds. These holdings include apartments in New York, hotels in Italy and Canada, and land in Thailand and France.

You'll notice that Butler doesn't denigrate McCain's service as a POW in the slightest. He just says he doesn't think McCain would be a very good president.
"[Mitt] saw the criticism as "the politics of jealousy or envy or a sense that somehow we're going to be less likely to vote for someone because they've achieved economic success."
The issue is that Johnny McSame doesn't turn 72 years of age tomorrow. Oh, he celebrates the 72nd anniversary of his birth. No, the real issue is "Just how really old is poor, sad John McCain because of all of those years he spent as a POW under the Vietnamese?" As we've seen recently, he doesn't act like a 72-year old person. He acts more like he really is -- 80 to 85 years of age. Can we afford to have someone that enfeebled actually sitting in the oval office at the start of their term. We saw what happened when someone left office at that age. Just how much do the Publicans hate America to hang this albatrross around the nation's neck?
Just how many years under the extreme POW
Maybe Grampy thinks he's in 'Nam.
He will not confront the issues. He and his campaign will turn him into a cartoon character.
the years due to the legacies and and corporate trade policies of President
Reagan, Bush Uno, Bush Dos and yes, Clinton.
Thirty eight years of screwing
So every time you have to step over some one sleeping on a heating vent
just stop to tell how much you admire their patriotism and throw a little spare
change into their Campaign Finance Cup.
There should be a poster of a homeless man sleep on the street,
Above the picture it should say JOHN McCAIN
and below the picture it should sat HOMELESS AMERICAN HERO
