McCain voted with Bush how many times?
McCain actively sought, and received, Bush's endorsement.
And historically, wasn't there a reciprocal situation?


To even try to pretend it's just "association" between those two is astounding!


Are you freakin' kidding me?
Ayers is OLD NEWS.
The Repubs are so desparate they are having to recycle old crap to try to think of something to gain ground on.
THEY HAVE NOTHING NEW!!!

They are using this as a DESTRACTOR so they don't have to talk about the economy...

Did you mean DISTRACTOR? (root word being distraction)

Economy.

Want to discuss why the "housing bubble" collapsed and who created it and who is responsible for those "predatory lenders"? Hint; the ones that started the phrase were the ones making MILLIONS from it and collecting the most in campaign contributions.........Dodd, Obama, Frank the TOP THREE in order and Obama collected his in only 3 years while Dodd and Frank worked on their totals for more than a decade.

By the way did you happen to notice the rest of the world?
Our market is doing far better than most......check the percentages if you doubt me......Russia lost 50% the FIRST day.......and their economy is in trouble with oil prices falling (which those high oil prices are the real cause of the problem)......Oh yeah.......War IS coming..... to raise the price again.....Or I guess you never noticed how Iran always rattles the cage every time prices start to fall and Russia has been teaming up with them.
One last little question.........Does Iran really need to develop their "own" bomb or can they borrow a few?

Ayers endorsing Obama is as significant as McCain's captor endorsing him...


So, you vote with Bush 90% of the time, but you get credit for being a "Maverick" cause you aren't a as much of a ditto-head follower like the other Repubs....
Wow...


Um. The fact that I pointed out it was "old news" demonstrated that I did know it's over a year old junk...


Actually, I meant combination of "destructor" and "distractor".
I thought it fit...


Sure.
Mr. "I never met a deregulation I didn't like"...

Amongst numerous other people...


Quite frankly, your statement is like pointing out that Mrs O'Leary's barn isn't as bad as the neighbors' barns....

Well I could "almost" believe your silly talking point about "never met a deregulation that I didn't like".............If I was stupid and didn't KNOW for a fact that BUSH AND MCCAIN have called SPECIFICALLY for REGULATION of MAE AND MAC....not just once but 17 times and every time the democrats hollered "racism" as if the only poor people are black. So if the whole town is burning because of our barn then the guys that wanted a sprinkler system in our barn are guilty.


By the way Obama voted WITH the Democrats 97% of the time so I guess even you must admit that HE is far more partisan and much more supportive of NOT allowing the rightfully elected leader do his job. I guess you never did realize that GW worked with the democrats on MANY things that republicans didn't exactly support. Think on this for a moment and I'll remind you later.


The whole town is on fire but our fire is smaller than the rest meaning we have a better chance of recovering SOONER.



1. Prescription drugs for seniors- the largest EXPANSION of medical benefits EVER. (P.S.- Walmart has a BETTER program and now so do most of the other drug stores)
2. Education Bill- Yes the one Teddy Kennedy WROTE the famous "no child left behind".
3. 14 wasted months of discussion BEFORE we "rushed" into Iraq.
4. Any attempt at actually fixing our failing social security program.
5. Immigration- to the point that we were gonna give citizenship to people that didn't even want it...they just wanted illegal jobs thus keeping American WAGES artificially low.
6. Campaign finance reform-violating first amendment rights.
7. I bet you cannot even show me a GW quote where he "directly attacked" any democrat.

I spoke with an acquaintance yesterday who told me flat out Obama is a Muslim and she doesn't know why people are so stupid as to vote for a "terrorist".
I think these congressmen are probably voicing the feelings of their constituents.
Whatever terminology you use, this is wrong and it is hateful rhetoric. And it is the type of rhetoric especially in the economic climte that encourages riotous behavior. I agree with prosecuting the guy who hacked Palin's email. But we should also forcefully prosecute those who are /have started these hate mails that describe Obama as a Muslim terrorist.

Isn't a terrorist one who causes fear to gain some political advantage? Hmmm. So who is the terrorist in this regard.

Just admit it. These tactics are a last ditch effort to gain some traction. And the public isn't buying in. In fact many of them have already voted. So it just makes McCain (who I still respect) look silly.

I have no respect for McCain any more. He has done things that offend me and my intelligence. He disrespected us all by lying to win. By using hate and fear. How can you use your wife and kids to make false claims. I would not ask my wife to use my kids to promote a lie. You should treat your opponent like a fellow American. Not some foreign terrorist. That is un American. He disrespected me and my country by choosing Palin for purely partisan reasons. With little regard for the well being of The U.S. I could go on. But its like kicking a real dead horse. If McCain would have stayed out of the gutter and chose someone like romney( who I don't like) He might be in the lead. But we have seen what this little twerp is all about. I give him respect for one thing. And one thing only anymore. And truth be told he spilled his guts to the enemy. That doesn't ean I could have done any better. But lets be clear he did give up info to the enemy. So that would make him a traitor. Much more then these stupid connections to Bill Ayers makes Obama a terrorist.

Quite frankly, you're capable of disbelieving a lot...
Whether or not you want to admit the truth is irrelevant to me...

Q: In 1999, you were one of the senators who helped pass deregulation of Wall Street. Do you regret that now?

McCAIN: No. I think the deregulation was probably helpful to the growth of our economy.

Think Progress McCain: I’m glad I deregulated Wall Street.


Way to change the subject...
I was pointing out how the relationship between Bush and McCain was more than just "association", and now you're trying to change the subject.

Obama is a Democrat.
He isn't claiming "I'm going to be a *maverick* Democrat".
The comparison isn't even in the same ball-park to what we're ACTUALLY talking about...


And thus you're running firmly away from whatever we were ACTUALLY talking about onto numerous side tangents, which you would in turn abandon once things started looking sticky for you...
You're the king of strawman and changing the subject.
I'll let you rule your kingdom of 1 by yourself...
