- DPolitico, on 07/11/2008, -2/+3So McCain one time late at night when he was exhausted, misstated what happened to him in Vietnam. Some of us when we're 60, er 70, will forget something when we're tried at 11 o'clock at night, too.

- PolishLogic, on 07/11/2008, -1/+3Not really as important somebody condemning warrantless wiretapping, then voting in favor of the FISA compromise.
Yet, let's just try to sweep that under a rug as quickly as possible....- Cuchanu, on 07/11/2008, -2/+1Maybe you didn't notice that the people that have been hardest on Obama for that are his own supporters.
- PolishLogic, on 07/11/2008, -1/+2Really? I sure see quite a few of his supporters defending Obama, talking about how they need to remember that this is just one small setback and people should be keeping their eye on the prize that is the election.
I'm shocked that this particular issue hasn't tanked him. He's essentially done the exact same thing that the anti-Bush people have been screaming about for years. - Cuchanu, on 07/11/2008, -0/+1Yes some have defended him but there is a lot who haven't, myself included. There really is no way to defend him if I wanted to. It is inexcusable and shocking that he would vote for the FISA bill. But it doesn't mean I would ever in a million years vote for McCain, or anyone else for that matter.
But I still believe that his supporters have been the hardest because they are the ones that feel betrayed. McCain supporters are not outraged, however, because he supports FISA and so it's obviously not a really important issue to them.
It's like if McCain all of a sudden says, oh abortion is ok. His consrvative backers would feel betrayed and be pissed. But the liberal Obama backers would just say he's a flip-flopper, but not be truly upset because they think abortion should be legal anyways. - PolishLogic, on 07/12/2008, -0/+1I'm having a tough time even convincing myself to cast a presidential vote in this election.

- Cuchanu, on 07/11/2008, -0/+2We've already established that McCain is either too senile to be President, or too full of *****. This just adds to the evidence.
- aadyss, on 07/11/2008, -2/+0Should I buy into the Obama message?
1. Ask the European Union what temperature we should set our thermostats.
2. Ask the European Union as to how large of an automobile we should drive.
3. Forget the American way of larger and better. Accept the mundane and common and be happy.
4. Forget innovation. Let's give that up to Asia as the Europeans gave it up to us.
4. Let us return to the stone age for we have not depleted our stone quarries as of yet.
