I just really want to say this. Yell it, actually.
I UTTERLY DETEST JOHN MCCAIN.

He's revolting. He's stupid. He's arrogant. He's a hateful war mongering piece of... work.

I hate the cadence and tone of his speech.

I hate his ugly, smug face.

I hate his lying bullshit about being independent and a "maverick".

I can't stand Cindy.

The thought of the two of them in the White House scares the shit out of me and makes me want to

:puke:

That is all.

1. He is a smug one isn't he.
Like his statement about
knowing how to win wars.

That was too arrogant. :puke:

11. Sometimes, again sometimes the best way to win a war is to find
a peaceful solution so that a war remains an idea rather than a reality.

49. Well, it's just a FABULOUS fight-back strategy, and weapon, all in one.
And the second part of it - all the same stuff but with supportive links! No made-up shit or fabricated scare tactics - it's all backed up. I'm actually looking forward to getting the next knuckle-dragger email... Boy is that sender gonna be sorry!

3. He had the GALL to blame Obama for flip-flopping today, after
a website has 70 and counting posted on him this a.m.
I hate the media more if that's possible...

4. I feel sorry for him sometimes
He is clearly out of his league in this election. By the end of it he will be close a laughingstock I believe.
Remember when his campaign was declared dead in the primaries and he was literally reduced to a song and dance routine? I predict a return to that by the end of this thing and it will leave a man that at one point not so long ago generally respected a fractured wreck of what he once was.

9. or he might be president.
it bothers me that the polls are so close. some people are just plain stupid. they don't follow politics the way we do. they think "oh well, he's been a senator for a long time and he's was a POW -- i guess he's okay". i've heard this statement and it scares the hell out of me.

15. I honestly dont think theres a chance in hell of him becoming president
I think this campaign is taking an unbelievable toll on him even with weekends off. He looks more and more lost every day. I am betting on him dropping out before november or just taking a licking for the team one of the two. He wont be president.

25. the public was still partially shell shocked
they were still very afraid. I think the wool has been mostly pulled off their eyes on that front this time around. They want competency this time and mcsame is doing everything in his power it seems to undermine his.

26. Presuming an honest count, you're right
McCain, to me, looks half-dead already and appears to be honestly losing his mind. Assuming nothing hideously damning comes out about Obama (which seems unlikely) and assuming a halfway honest count, McCain is toast.

5. uh yeah, today my hate for him reached new levels too.
Edited on Tue Jul-15-08 05:52 PM by ErinBerin84
" I know how to win wars". In WHAT fucking universe!

How many times do you have to deny the existence of the Czech Republic? I can see doing it once or twice, but how many times is it now? You would think that one of his handlers would have at least picked up on it and given him a warning.


The thought of John McCain being President, to quote a certain wise person from AZ, sends SHIVERS down my spine. I want a bumper sticker that says "McCain does not make me feel safe".


And what the fuck, NATO troops in Afghanistan? "The same strategy for Iraq will now be used in Afghanistan...the surge I championed". Does he really believe this shit, or is he just hoping that he continues to get away with it.

27. McCain flew more than one plane...
...because he crashed four. FOUR. And yeah, I've seen absolutely NOTHING in his military record--or any other record--that indicates that he knows the first freaking thing about winning a war.

30. And so I it is within reason to believe
...that as CIC, when McCain fucks everything up, he would say, "well, if only I didn't do XXX then things wouldn't have gone to hell in a hand basket.

Yeah, thanks but no thanks, McCain. I'll stick with the guy with good judgment and an even temperament.

21. Even Republicans don't like him.
For what that's worth.

And once again, I'm more worried about the American public than one man. It's the people who are apathetic and careless who have let this happen. And who will again vote for a slug.

There's something strangely ghoulish about him. That creepy laugh -- that fake smile.

Edited on Tue Jul-15-08 09:00 PM by nam78_two
like Romney or Huckabee. President McCain and VP Another Insane Rethug.

Strange as it may seem, by the standards of most Repug voters, McCain isn't insane and or sleazy enough. So they will have to make that ticket even more toxic by picking the craziest Republican they can find. It will be an uber religious nut like Huckabee or some uber hawkish, libertarian type like Romney or Guiliani.

I am sure there have to be some people within the repub party who are not utterly revolting. If only for old times sakes. Why wouldn't they have scrounged up and nominated one of those? It makes no sense.
