I don't understand - McCain is saying that we are keeping the soldiers from

[Jillian]

getting MRAPs; from getting a pay raise.

Wasn't that in the last suplemental they just voted on 1 month ago?????

1. Yes it was; sounds like he's lying. The Pentagon just got around

to awarding the contract VERY belatedly, but the money is there.

2. Are you calling McCain a liar?

:toast:

6. Maybe he doesn't know about the bills he didn't vote on?

3. Delusional John Strikes Again

It's his buddy George that has threatened to veto a pay raise and it was George's Pentagon under his buddy Rummy that prevented the troops from getting the MRAP.

McCain is such a pitiful man, and you just want to feel sorry for him, but don't. John would sell out this country if he thought it would jump start his failed campaign.

I once had great respect for this man, but he showed his true colors, and I have nothing but contempt for him and the president he supports!

5. My only disappointment

Is that he didn't get done in by more smears from the Bushco operation, like they did to him in 2000. It would have been sweet justice after he kissed Bush's ass in 2004 instead of sticking by his guns about the Swift Boat smears.

4. Thank god, he's done (for now)

Carry on my wayward son



There'll be peace when you are done



Lay your weary head to rest



Don't you cry no more
