There never was a "nice" or "maverick" John S. McCain
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 09:29 PM by Jake3463
Its a media created myth because he ran against Bush in 2000.

This man has always been a nasty asshole. Going back to his High School days when his nickname was the Punk and McNasty to his days coming home from the war and his wife not looking as hot as when he left for war and him cheating on her for 8 years till he found a millionaire pageant winner to trade up with (buy her off). He has called his wife and mother of 3 of his children a Trollop and a Cunt in public. He has always been the nastiest and dirtiest of Senators in the Senate till he got caught in the Keating 5 and he joined with Feingold for cover for his previous sins. He was happy about the first Gulf war because it gave him Political cover after Keating 5. Some of the people in his own party feel chills up their spine with his finger on the button.

He's raising money from nasty evil people under the terms of his law using the GOP and he's spending it in disgusting ways. He isn't organizing on the ground anywhere but instead investing in saying nasty things about his opponent. His jokes are all insensitive and actually mean spirited in addition to being insensitive. The fucker feels the most at home with reporters the nastiest fuckers of them all.

This man is a nasty asshole who has Daddy issues and is doing something to prove he's a better man than his Father. He couldn't be an Admiral like Daddy so he's trying to top Daddy by being President. Sound familiar?

The man is pond scum and just because another pond scum bag was quicker to slime him before he could slime the other guy doesn't mean he's any better or decent.

He spent some of the years of his life in honorable service but before that and after that he has been a giant douche bag.

1. No kidding - he's a mean prick
When I used to live in DC, McInsane PERSONALLY held up millions of $$ in funding that DC desperately needed -- and why? So he could get a non-stop flight to and from Phoenix approved to land and take off at Congress' personal airport (National Airport) - of course operated by Southwest Airlines. McInsane's a busy man, he can only take 10 min. to get to the airport, rather than travel out to Dulles with the common folk. So who cares if the people who live in DC were deprived of sorely needed funding for street repairs and Head Start and school lunches? After all, they have no vote in Congress so who gives a shit about them?

2. I've been saying this for years
Sadly because he was the first Rove victim in 2000 some people have this false belief he was a nice guy. There are very few nice guys in the GOP.

3. From a longtime Arizonan, whose first vote nearly coincided with his first campaign,
you've pretty much nailed the man's career right there.

4. Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan
Don't see promise in you for no reason. The only early endorsement he's missing is Nixon's who he'd probably have sought out and got if it wasn't for Watergate.

5. John McCain: Married to the Mob
Not so much daddy issues as godfather issues. I'm surprised it doesn't get much attention.

19. My parents were strident 'Goldwater' fans. They also loved 60 minutes

I distinctly remember when I was about 12 years old and already hating the Republicans and reading MLK, etc, that 60 minutes was running a story on the mafia in Arizona and how they had more control there than in Nevada. It was about massive land fraud in Arizona.

At one point the announcer says, "and there are reports that mob influence reaches to the most influential politicians in Arizona". I simply said, "that's interesting do we know any influential AZ politicians? I wonder who they are talking about."

After a minute my mother shouts "Goldwater". I considered it my first major political coup lol.

8. You forgot to mention "straight talker"
I was watching something on Olberman about the little turd and was reminded of a joke about the weather in Texas changing every 15 minutes. His temper and honesty are almost as stable.

9. He's going to go crazy during a debate
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 09:50 PM by Jake3463
The man doesn't have the discipline of Bush. At least Bush could always stay on message even if nonsense came out of his mouth it was nonsense talking points. This idiot can't even stay on message in a Grocery Store on economic issues.

10. I know. I can't wait!
His campaign ends the night of the first debate.

I'll bet $50 to Obama that he flips the fuck out. You can hold me to that.

11. Might as well give now
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 09:56 PM by Jake3463
He hates Obama personally...and Obama is very skilled at pushing his buttons. McCain has always been in a position of authority even as a POW as an officer and a son of an Admiral...the debates with Obama will be the first instance in his life he won't.

12. We're going to have to come up with a "McNasty Drinking Game" for the debates.

13. As long as Charlie and George
aren't moderators we will and ABC has no part in it.

Otherwise the questions will be Senator McCain why do you love America and Senator Obama why do you hate it and everytime McCain starts to go crazy they will cut to break.

14. Yeah, and he's just gotten uglier..
Lucky Obama gets to run against him for Prez but no matter who the repuke candidate is they'd have some made up line of shit like they did for mccain.

It coulda been rudy9/11, fred, I'm an actor, thompson, mitt, the bad gov, romney..huck man of god, who I wonder what he thinks of this negative lying mccain shit.

16. I hope he goes batshit during the first debate
And Obama just stands there, cool as a cucumber and watches McInsane self destruct on national TV. If I believed in a higher being I'd be praying for that to happen.

17. No higher being needed
A few jabs on veteran benefit voting or honesty will send McCain into insanity mode unless they heavily medicate him...and if thats the case it will be 2 hours of creepy grin.

21. You should dig a little deeper
His supposed Honorable service, was not so Honorable. His rep at the Academy was party time and screwing up. He crashed more planes then he had combat missions. There are Honorable soldiers that maintain that he was less then Honorable when captured and got special treatment because of his father. I know the repubs that have had the cool aid and other public figures have to carry on this charade, but here lets not carry on the myth of Honorable service. Not all military service is Honorable.
