Is the McCain Camp Spreading Smears in the Name of Fighting Them?

"You are George Bush all over again, you DO NOT THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!!!!"

Now there is a very good reason why not to vote for McBush. Thank you Shelly. I completely agree with you.

THANKS TO JOHN McCAIN FOR SENDING OBAMA HIS EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT!!! SARAH PALIN!!!! Of all his possible VP picks.. this idiot takes Palin???? Ummmmm ok...good one John. You definately are not getting my vote for President. You are George Bush all over again, you DO NOT THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!!!!

That's the point. Where is the bashing going? What is the point to it? So far, I haven't learned one thing new about who is best for the country from you people. I'm asking a very simple question over and over. Who is best for the country, the people, us americans, and why? Yet noone has anything to say other than "Palin is a bad pick because she has pregnant teen and seems to be an extremist"

So I ask again, WHO IS THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR US AMERICANS AND WHY?

Now how in the world do you KNOW that Obama campaign is spreading rumors about anyone? Did you talk to Obama? Do you work for Obama? Did you spread the rumors yourself? Quit saying so and so did this, that, or another when you don't even what you're talking about. The Vice President isn't even an issue, they don't make any decisions whatsoever. The elected president keeps them on a leash and feeds their opinion to them for breakfast.

The real issue is....WHO IS BEST FOR THE COUNTRY, FOR THE PEOPLE, FOR US AMERICANS??? Who cares about some pregnant 17 yr old and her opinion fed mother.

No one is allowed to stand in his way... including an inadequate candidate and a couple of Bush clones.

It is the Obama campaign who is planting the rumors, starting with the fever swamps of the Daily Kos, with whom Obama has a chummy relationship, knowing that the msm will then take it and run with it, in their determination to see their ONE elected. No one is allowed to stand in his way.

Put a script in front of Palin and watch her lips move. God help us.

Protection from the government??? I've never even heard from the government on any issue of my life. What I want to know is, who is going to protect me from the IRS taking all my hard earned money just to send bombs towards some irate iraqi's?

"The point isn't that it's untrue - it may be true. The point is that it's nobody's g*dam business but the Palin's. It has absolutely nothing to do with Gov. Palin's performance as an elected official."

Not necessarily true, when one is a severe proponent of a certain policy or ideology and something happens which shows that policy did not work for you ( abstinence only), the public has all the right to know.

At this point nothing is protecting us from the government. But, dully noted!

By the way, ending your comment with a Jerry Springer quote automatically nulls all your credibility.

I can't believe you care so much about his running mate. Female or not, pregnant teenage daughter or not, who cares?!?! The real issue is, what is going to happen to the country if we continue in the same direction we're going....which clearly is the issue, NOT whether or not some lady that just entered the campaign has pregnant teenage daughter or not.

What we need is a complete U-turn from the destination where we're headed.

Sounds to me like the MSM has figured out they overstepped the usual bounds of decency and so instead of taking responsibility, they're going to pretend that maybe the McCain campaign put out the ugly rumors about Palin.

I couldn't agree more. As a woman I feel insulted that the mccain campaign would even begin to think that Hillary supporters would be swayed by this selection.

Admittedly I don't like what Palin stands for, but what I think I really fear (and what is hitting my hot buttons) is that she truly appears to be an extremist. She accepted the nomination knowing that her daughter was pregnant out of wedlock and subsequently would have to undergo the harsh glare of the national spotlight. UGH! What truly loving parent - male or female - puts their political ambition before the pain it is going to bring upon their child? I can't imagine asking that out of anyone I love.

Unless, of course, they are an extremist? Does Palin feel like she's the only choice to bring her brand of morality to America? It brings to my mind crazies, dictators, fascists and religious zealots. Those types that speak out of one side of their mouth while the other side is busy dirtying the laundry.

And yes - other candidate's children have gotten themselves in the limelight as well - but after the fact. The Bush girls well knew what they were doing when they went out partying, for example.

To me it seems obvious that Palin has chosen to espouse a belief (abstinence education being the way to bring down the problem of teen pregnancy) she can't even inspire in her own children. The reason she is unqualified to be in a position of power is because she can't even positively influence those closest to her.

Someone said Jerry Springer - she brings to mind those people I've known that always have some issue going on. Drama queens.

Apparently freedom of speech is a theory around here, huh?

Is there a reason why noone is stating the obvious? Both candidates are horrible candidates to represent our country and take over the mess that Bush is leaving behind. It's unfortunate that the country is going to hell and all you people can do is sling mud at eachother because you think it makes you stand for soemthing. Maybe it's the first time you have ever stood up for anything, but standing up for one horrible candidate over the other horrible candidate is a lost cause. We all know that America, as we know it, is going down the crapper with Bush sitting in the oval office. So, my vote is going to the person who clearly agrees to disagree with Bush's tactics in every aspect.

That's my two cents, take it how you want, but that's the way it is.

ApostasyUSA,

Great find!

Concerned in OH,
Your sarcasm is dripping with immaturity. If you were really all that concerned you would not be voting Republican.

"EXECTUTIVE experience"
