LOL I have no problem! I just have issues with his Politic's from the economy to taxes and the Iraq situation.

McCain is so much more qualified to handle Iraq... Obama has no clue!

If McCain wins (and even if he doesn't), just how big is that thing growing on the side of his head going to be in 4 or 5 years?

It seems to be getting bigger every week.

McCain IS the only person in the world that knows abut Iraq's newly discovered border with Pakistan, so yeah...he really must be qualified.
As for taxes, might I suggest that it is time for the wealthy in this country to pay taxes at a rate that is at least somewhat comparable to.....oh I don't know.....the rest of the industrialized world?

The number of things John McCain will say or do over the rest of his lifetime that indicates even a moderate level of understanding regarding the ways in which a post-industrial society actually functions, or in fact, anything that demonstrates any degree of intellectual sophistication whatsoever:

over/under 1

(I'll take the under)

You know..underlying his sleepy appearance ,there is a fairly honest and common sense brain working.


The heart throbe character you paint ...we've seen him much too often.

What a scumbag thing to say about someone who served their country.

Obama has done absolutely nothing for this country outside of rallying section 8 people in Chicago and avoiding doing his job in Congress so he can make sure to take the popular side of an opinion during an election year.

His ideas on health care reform are a pipe dream. He's a fraud.

Mirage is aptly named.

That's what you see when spending too much time in the desert...no?

Albert Einstein would have made a great president.
Good Lord.

Come on Coach..give me a break. John Kerry served his country and yet it was open season on him. No one is saying that McCain isn't a war hero and deserving of all of our thanks. But that doesn't mean he, IMO obviously, should be Prez

No it doesn't.


It was open season on him because of his obvious political aspirations from the beginning when he was ready to bag anyone who was in Viet Nam except himself.


I think a guy like McCain would really think hard before sending troops off to possibly have to go through what he did.I would have to think he would look at it that way.


Don't be a fool.

:rolleyes:

Actually, relatively speaking, I do trust McCain to remember where he came from. But I also trust Obama to make better decisions that Bush and company did when presented with the same information.

Isn't that a bit ambiguous?

I would trust either of them to take care of our security. I prefer Obama fiscally and on social issues.

That should be clear;)

why not? combined with what else McCain has done why isn't his service an attribute that we want in a president?

i have yet to find any attribute of Obamas that would indicate to me that he should be president.

it was open season on Kerry and his military service and for good reason. he was over there like one year, embellished his record, and then once he came home he ripped to shreds the military and those he served with.

Oh.


But you know....McCain's comment about what he would do for the economy was that he would bring in an expert adviser....which shot off KYRIM like a rocket in partisan guffawing.

Frankly I thought it was an honest and very practical response.....sssso....if Osama is going to tell us how deep he is in financial and social issues
then I am putting my cynical cap on.
