McCain for Prez


Recommended Posts

What do you think about Phil Graham, Rick Davis, and the Keating 5?

I don't think about them much. Honestly, if those are the worst skeletons the man has in his closet, whats the problem?

Everyone knows McCain's bid for President is a long term operation by Chinese/Vietnamese intelligence agencies.

The true reason for the Sino-Vietnam war was the battle over the code word that would trip McCain's brainwashing and open the door for our new overlords.

Hope you've been studying up on your mandarin.

I assume you mean Phil Gramm - sorry if there's a different one that I don't know about.

After Mr. Gramm made his comment about the country being a nation of whiners, McCain had some harsh words for Gramm and Gramm left the campaign, as far as I know, in July, so I would think Gramm's involvement going forward with his campaign and potential presidency would be minimal. I could be mistaken though, is he still involved with the campaign?

I know Davis had alot to do with the deal between DHL and Airborne Express, and now that DHL is planning on leaving Ohio, I know it's going to cost jobs. That being said, consolidations, and the accompanying layoffs, are just a part of business - I just worked on the 09 budget at my company and alot of people will be losing their jobs because of an acquisition we're planning. I hate it, I hate that's how it is, but if we are to be competitive it's what we have to do - or else EVERYONE is out of a job. So, again, I know Davis has gotten some criticism for the work he had on that deal, but I can hardly criticize a man for doing exactly what I did last week - and will continue to do.

As for the Keating 5 deal - the Senate Ethics Committee cleared McCain of all charges. They said he did nothing illegal, improper or grossly negligent. There wasn't any evidence against him. That being said, it was twenty years ago and even McCain calls it 'the worst mistake of my life'. He admits to exercising poor judgement.

And, like Gaf said, if after 25 years in Washington that's the best dirt they've got on him, that's pretty impressive.

I gained an enormous amount of respect for McCain when I found out his son Jimmy was serving in Iraq. I respected the man all the more because I hadn't found it out from him. He doesn't talk about it. Think about that. He has a son serving in Iraq and he chooses NOT to parade that information around. He's answered questions when asked about his son, but for the most part, he doesn't bring it up as part of his campaign.

He could.

It would get him votes, I'm sure.

But he doesn't.

I respect that.

on a serious note. im more for macain. just bye experience alone he has twice that, and has worked his way to being president. obama started politics in 1996. thats only 12 years, and suddenly everyone can trust he can handle it all. but well even with all the dirt thrown at obama he still seems to be leading with most people, in michigan at least.

mccain has to break a lot of beliefs people have about him. everyone accusing the guy of being with big oil and another bush. he does not deserve those labels just cause of what bush did.

I believe both his sons are in the Marines, but don't quote me on it. I'm more for McCain myself, because personally I don't think Obama has enough experience to lead the country. Shit, it was only a few months ago when his own VP said the same thing.

Both of his sons are in the military, but only one is in Iraq. I believe his other son is in the naval academy.

I worry about Obama's experience too. He's had one term in the U.S. senate, and half of that was spent campaigning for presidency. That worries me.

he seems very much in it for the race more then expecting 4 years of basicly shit slapped in his face. the presidency is a LOT more then just a job you want to try for. you have to KNOW what your getting into. i dont think hes seeing 2 years from now to much

and the shit he said about his daughter he whouldnt want her to be damned with a baby. way to lose the vote with single mothers everywhere.

anybody want to host a presidency debate party. we can make it very macho footballish style to. just for fun

      I have no idea why I'm even on all of these call lists that are on Robo-Dial by A.I.  One is a female voice and the other is a male voice and all they did was change the name that they give you.  I did get put through to a few live people to try to ask them to remove me from their list, but they, the telemarketer, hung up on me.   It's like I'm living "Telemarketers Revenge" for all the years of people handing up on them.   I always spoke with the telemarketer and then wished them a good day before hanging up.  And this is what I get for all of my decades of kindness.  I don't think I deserve this, but the World has lost a lot of the niceties that it used to have when I was growing up.  And no...COVID did not cause this.  I'm also getting tired of that excuse.  Its been 6 years!  People felt they were given the Green Light to be anti-social and rude to your face and now it is part of society just like everything else Mainstream adopts and considers it a cultural add-on.   I just hope I can survive this onslaught of calls blowing up my phone until it dies down.  Else, I will place a block on my number and only allow calls from family, friends and medical associated with my job.

      This is crazy.   I had to mute my phone because I am getting 50+ calls a day regarding Life Insurance, Medical Insurance, Burial Benefits, a Senior Food Expense Card, a Senior Social Security monthly reimbursement benefit, etc., and I don't qualify for any of it.  I don't even meet the age requirement.   At current, I have 53 missed calls and 38 of them were from yesterday.
