1. His definition of Peace is different than most of us
To McCain, the bu$h regime and most of the republicons, peace means bombing the shit out of other countries.

2. "a hundred years in Iraq"
"there will be more wars"

Someone said he's never seen a war he didn't like.

Far beyond shameless

There is nothing remotely "maverick" about war mongering.

Ughhh

4. It's as if he's just spitting in the faces of Americans...
...as if we're all such fools we won't notice that his words and actions don't jive!

6. He's only interested in being Prez to be Commander in Chief.
So peace would mean a wasted presidency.

7. He's running for COmmander in Chief. not President. That's what his AZ
primary ad said--and he's a straight talker. Except when he isn't. Which is a lot.

8. I laughed when I first saw it....
Almost as funny as "Peace" is "Prosperity".

Gee...the GOP has been running things and we're pretty far away from "Peace" and our "Prosperity" is going into the pockets of Exxon/Mobile.

This is going to backfire big time...it's just going to piss people off because it's such an obvious lie.

9. It's Orwellian ...and
Edited on Tue Jun-24-08 03:46 PM by zidzi
shows his campaign is afraid to say "Reform, Prosperity(more Orwellian unless you count the corporate zillionaires), and WAR.

IOW, "The Next Four Years The SAme as the Last Eight Years".

Edit~ to make it ledgible.
