While introducing Gov. Palin in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the potential first lady suggests Obama can’t sympathize with military families.

Says his Senate vote that allegedly blocked funding for the troops “sent a cold chill through my body.”

“I would suggest that Senator Obama change shoes with me for just one day and see what it means to have a loved one in the armed forces.”

:wow:

[whistle]

1. That cold chill was John McCain pressing against Cindy

[lisa58]

lol

[VolcanoJen]

5. ROFL ROFL ROFL

Bwaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

You're awesome, whistle!

:rofl:

[VWolf]

30. DUZZZZZZZZZYYYYYY!!!!!

[goclark]

31. Or maybe it was the drugs that she had just taken

She looks so spaced.

[The Magistrate]

2. What Must It Have Done, Sir, When Her Husband Did The Exact Same THing?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

3. Meanwhile he has also voted against funding the troops and his record regarding

our wounded warriors is atrocious. How can they lie like that? It comes to them as easy as breathing.

[ErinBerin84]

4. oh fuck you, Cindy. You are trashy and irrelevant.

I know that it must be hard to cope with having your dreams as first lady dashed, but try some therapy.

[napi21]

6. Hey Cindy! How'd you feel when your husband wouldn't support

Webb's bill to increase benefits for those troops?

[AllentownJake]

7. I'll wear your shoes if I can keep them

I can probably resell them for what is the equivalent of a paycheck for me.

[MadBadger]

8. No Cindy...those were the drugs.

[dchill]

32. I was thinking maybe "Cold Turkey"...

My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Cant see no body
Leave me alone

My eyes are wide open
Cant get to sleep
One thing Im sure of
Im in at the deep freeze

Cold turkey has got me on the run...

[lisa58]

9. It just goes back to the McCain's thinking ONLY THEY KNOW...

...what the military needs - his daughter said it and now his wife.

I hope they lose Arizona in an electoral landslide of epic proportions.

[TooRaLoo]

10. I thought the cold air was what kept her tiny skeleton inflated. nt

[patrice]

11. And KILLING 10s of thousands of INNOCENT PEOPLE doesn't send a cold chill through her . . .

ack!!, pardon me a moment . . . uh, choke, "body".

So that chill is soooooooooooo much more significant than the

BLOOD OF THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE - Fuck you, Cindy.

[Connie_Corleone]

12. She's a cold-blooded reptilian.

[zulchzulu]

13. The cold chill through Cindy's body might be from her pill addictions

She's just mixing them up... wench.

Oh wait, Cindy! Lookee here!

...on March 29, 2007, McCain himself voted against H.R. 1591, an emergency spending bill that would have funded the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and would have provided more than $1 billion in additional funds to the Department of Veterans Affairs. The Senate passed H.R. 1591 by a margin of 51-47. Once the bill's conference report was agreed to by the House, the Senate again passed the measure on April 26, 2007, by a vote of 51-46. McCain did not vote on that version of the bill. By contrast, Obama voted for it on both occasions. President Bush vetoed the bill, citing its provision for a timetable for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.

Moreover, McCain has voted against other legislation funding care for veterans. On April 26, 2006, McCain voted against an amendment by Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-HI) that would have "provide an additional $430,000,000 for the Department of Veteran Affairs for Medical Services for outpatient care and treatment for veterans." In addition, on March 14, 2006, McCain voted against "increas Veterans medical services funding by $1.5 billion in FY 2007 to be paid for by closing corporate tax loopholes." On March 10, 2004, McCain also voted against "creat a reserve fund to allow for an increase in Veterans' medical care by $1.8 billion by eliminating tax loopholes." Obama voted for the first two measures; he had not yet entered the Senate when the third vote was cast.

14. The hypocrisy is frightening

Just because I fear there are enough Americans who are uninformed enough to buy her story at face value. I think that is the GOP tactic now, lie and use double standards and hope the public is too stupid and the media too afriad of being called 'liberal' to set the record straight.

McCain also voted against funding the military when a timetable was attached. McCain also voted against the 21st century GI bill as well as mental health coverage for returning vets, longer rest periods.

15. Well, after crawling into the sack with Johnny for all these years...

...I am sure that POS knows what a cold chill feels like!

[Dangerously Amused]

16. The cold chill must have warmed her up then, since her heart is made of ice.

[Brotherjohn]

17. Ummm... how could she tell? (nt)

[patrice]

18. P.S. What do you think would happen if Michelle made public references to her body?

[Hepburn]

20. She would be called every name in the book by the RWs....

...I am telling ya, without a doubt that would happen.

[patrice]

28. They USE those physical references on men, mostly, but also on women

who wannabe like her. People hear stuff like "chill ran through my body" and I guaran-freaking-tee you they have physical reflex responses that GROUND the speaker organically inside their mind-body.

This one gets: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: from me!!!!!!!!!!

[LaPera]

19. Bullshit, those hundreds of billions of dollars go to corporations, troops get very little...is why

all these republican corporations love war for profit, easy money (hundreds of billions) for death and occupation from our tax dollars...screw our tax payers need for health care...the corporations want that money and if they don't get it....they scream you don't support the troops....motherfucking greedy liars & killers!

The troops get what the corporations want to give and they better shut the fuck up if they don't get enough, you want a coke or sandwich extra you pay for it yourself....under the Bush/Cheney privatized corporate military.

[patrice]

25. War Profiteers and OIL ARE what it is all about; trying to root Death & Destruction for HIRE in Amer

ica's middle-class jobs-base, so trans-national corporations can and WILL go anywhere in the World and do ANYTHING they want, because they have the American Middle-Class by their Financial "balls". Make us poor enough, deny enough social justice, reduce ANY jobs but WAR and you CAN rule Earth for

THE NEW WORLD ORDER

[Brotherjohn]

21. Did she get the same cold chill when her husband voted against funding for the troops?

(with a timetable for withdrawal attached)

[City Lights]

22. Drama Queen!

And a liar to boot. :eyes:

[Overseas]

23. Well whaddya know, Cindy's a Champion McLiar too !!

A dedicated Republican who can lie with the best of them.

She was just devastated by the nastiest campaign in history yesterday-- no, not the one her hubby's team is running, but the Obama camp's stuff-- using facts, how awful.

[ErinBerin84]

24. I used to feel sorry for Cindy.

It must be hard to be married to McCain, and I felt sorry for her when her daughter was smeared. No more. She's the biggest piece of hypocritical garbage I have ever seen. Cindy, your life has not been all smooth sailing, you are proof that money does not buy happiness, but you have NOT cornered the market on suffering and have no idea what the average American goes through everyday.

[greyshade]

26. No Sympathy for the Military? Check the IAVA Grades!

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America have released their 2008 Congressional Report Card.

Obama = B

Biden = B

McCain = D

Check your State's Senators or Representatives

[CatsDogsBabies]

27. What a funny comment from a woman who looks like an ice cube

[Occam Bandage]

29. Did she feel the same when McCain voted against funding with a timeline?

[KingFlorez]

33. Go get on your broom and fly away, Cindy
