Wake up America we have the neer-do-well son of a 4 star admiral

who was propelled through the Navy by his father and has fabricated a war hero status out of 23 combat missions and survival as a POW and spun a career in the Senate out of that.

He is a superstitous compulsive gambler with an anger management problem.

He is no more conciencious about understanding the issues now than he was with his studies at the Naval Academy whre he finished at the bottom of his class.

McCAIN IS GW BUSH ON STEROIDS.

YOU have been mesmerized by a scam artist.

Even if McCain were Rambo, Audie Murphy, George Patton, Pappy Boyington and Eddie Rickenbacker all rolled into one, McCain would be a disaster as President

Because he is a superstitious compulsive gambler with an anger management problem,

If you insist on accepting the myth that McCain who flew 23 combat missions and survived as a POW is a war hero.

JOHN McCAIN’ S UNDERSTANDING OF THE IRAQ WAR IN 2002 WAS DIFFERENT FROM THAT OF OBAMA

WE SHOULD COMPARE WHAT THEY HAVE SAID

JOHN McCAIN SAID:

“Because I know that as successful as I believe we will be, and I believe that the success will be fairly easy, we will still lose some American young men or women.” [CNN, 9/24/02]

“We’re not going to get into house-to-house fighting in Baghdad. We may have to take out buildings, but we’re not going to have a bloodletting of trading American bodies for Iraqi bodies.” [CNN, 9/29/02]

“But the point is that, one, we will win this conflict. We will win it easily.” [MSNBC, 1/22/03]

BARACK OBAMA SAID: in Oct 2002

But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history.

I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda.

I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.

MY QUESTION IS “HAS McCAIN UNDERSTOOD THINGS ANY BETTER IN ADULTHOOD THAN WHEN HE WAS 5TH FROM THE BOTTOM OF HIS CLASS AT THE NAVAL ACADEMY?”

WHAT PART OF ” WE MUST BE MORE CAREFUL ABOUT GETTING OUT OF IRAQ THAN WE WERE ABOUT GETTING IN ” DOES McCAIN NOT UNDERSTAND ?

HE KEEPS SAYING THAT OBAMA WANTS A PRECIPITOUS WITHDRAWAL WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONDITIONS ON THE GROUND.

McCAIN IS NOT STUPID BUT HE IS APPARENTLY TRYING TO GET VOTES FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE STUPID.

IF YOU ARE IN THE TOP 1% OF WAGE EARNERS, OBAMA WILL RAISE YOUR TAXES

EITHER McCAIN DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THAT OR IS OUTRIGHT LYING WHEN HE SAYS THAT ALL AMERICANS WILL HAVE TO PAY HIGHER TAXES.

We know that McCain was no mathematical whiz when he was at the Naval
Academy, but even if his father was a 4 star admiral, surely the Naval Academy would require mastery of 8th grade level math a requirement for graduation.

First it was 9/11, then it was WMDs, then it was Saddam was a bad guy, then it was to bring democracy to the Mideast….

NOW IT IS TO HAVE BRAGGING RIGHTS ABOUT “VICTORY”. 4100+ DEAD, 13,000 MAIMED FOR LIFE, TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS DOWN THE DRAIN, US CREDIBILITY IN THE TOILET, BUDGET DEFICIT SKYROCKETING.

OF COURSE ALL OF THIS IS HINDSIGHT. WHO COULD HAVE PREDICTED THIS MESS?

Barack Obama in Oct. 2002? When he said?

” I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history.

I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda.

I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.”

IF THE BUSH/CHENEY INVASION OF IRAQ HAD SUCCEEDED, MORE AMERICAN MULTI-MILLIONAIRES WOULD BE BILLIONAIRES

AND WE ALL WOULD HAVE BRAGGING RIGHTS.

If McCain continues on to “victory” (whatever that is) we still have a shot at having bragging rights.

The problem is that only Americans would be impressed. But we would be happy in our own little world. Our economy would be destroyed but McCain has already said that economics was not his strong suit.

When McCain says “My friends” does’nt he sound patronizing?

Is he allowed to be patronizing if he is 72 years old and has a salty blustery demeanor?

THE SAME PEOPLE WHO HAD NO PROBLEM VOTING FOR SOMEONE WHO WAS A DRIFTER WITH A DRINKING PROBLEM UNTIL HE WAS 40 THEN A FAILED BUSINESSMAN

NOW INSIST THAT SOMEONE WITH BASICALLY NOTHING BUT SUCCESS IN HIS LIFE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH EXPERIENCE AT 46.

SOMEHOW THE SALTY BLUSTER OF A 72 YEAR OLD IS THEIR CRITERION OF JUDGEMENT.

McCAIN GIVES A PRETTY GOOD IMITATION OF HIS FATHER A 4 STAR ADMIRAL

PRETTY GOOD FOR A PHONEY WAR HERO, SUPERSTITIOUS, COMPULSIVE GAMBLER WITH AN ANGER MANAGEMENT PROBLEM .

I THINK THAT IT IS THE SALTY BLUSTER THAT DOES IT.
