- Lspook62, on 07/30/2008, -9/+80Thank you for summing up everything that is so wrong about these ads. McCain seems to think he can weave whatever reality he wants and we'll all buy right into it without question. Hmmmm....sounds like another republican we're all too familiar with. Unfortunately, too many people are still drinking that McCain Kool Aid.
- inactive, on 07/30/2008, -14/+64You only need to know one thing about McCain's attacks: they're lies.
- MadKennyP, on 07/30/2008, -8/+57"Throughout his life John McCain has held himself to the highest standards and he will continue to run a respectful campaign based on the issues."
Looks like McCain's changed his mind.

http://time-blog.com/real_clear_politics/2008/03/m ... - work4change, on 07/30/2008, -7/+42I've lost so much respect for John McCain. It's almost like he's become a puppet of his campaign managers. He can't even keep up with his own talking points. The maverick is long gone...this guy has flip flopped over 70 times since starting to run for president.

Your powers are weak old man - dBass, on 07/30/2008, -11/+35All these baseless, false attacks coming out each and every day. Can you imagine if rove and his protege were running McSame's campaign how nasty this election would be?
What's that? that sleaze ball rove IS running McSame's campaign! No! But rove said he was just "sharing some ideas with [McSame]. Rove wouldn't lie. - readacook, on 07/30/2008, -3/+27“John McCain is an honorable man who is running an increasingly dishonorable campaign."
I couldn't agree with the Obama campaign more on this. - spookyttws, on 07/30/2008, -4/+25So...when was the last time John McCain visited the wounded troops in Germany?
- treehugger87, on 07/30/2008, -8/+29Marxist? Marxist!? Really! Run for the hills! Hide your children! There's a real live Marxist, non-black with a Muslim sounding name in America!
I couldn't agree more that the two party system is being used to give the people the illusion of choice, but the rest of what you say sounds like you have bought the right-wing propaganda hook line and sinker. - barbiesnow, on 07/30/2008, -7/+26Hmmmm...who is using the troops for political advantage?
- socalftw, on 07/30/2008, -3/+22I have yet to see McCain talk in depth about solutions or approaches to current issues. All I hear is blah blah blah surge and obama this and obama that. Nothing he has said or done deserves any intelligent persons vote.
- Rotzooi, on 07/30/2008, -7/+25McCain is peaceful as well, here's what he really likes:

((Now who's next with taking the time to complain about complaining about huffingtonpost.com =instant bury?)) - deathfix, on 07/30/2008, -2/+19The Straight Talk Express seems to be going nowhere.
Maybe we should donate a GPS to McCain's campaign.. - inactive, on 07/30/2008, -4/+21I am absolutely stunned that approx. 40% of likely voters are currently expressing support for McCain.
- BXRWXR, on 07/30/2008, -2/+17Where are all of the Obama attacks on McCain?
Hmmmmm... - VinnieDaMac, on 07/30/2008, -1/+15Preaching to the choir. McCain supporters won't read that and Obama supporters already know.
- withears, on 07/30/2008, -5/+18Awesome post.
Fluffingtonpost
globalist
George
moderate McCain
non-choice
Marxist,
non-black
Muslim
leftist cult object
empty vessel.
That list = big bunch of *****. Funny, but a bunch of ***** nonetheless.
And by calling McCain "moderate," you reveal that you have absolutely no idea of his voting record. - SkippyDoorknob, on 07/30/2008, -1/+12Cuber?
Also, here, these must be yours: ..,,..,,.,..,,'...,,,..,,'.,.,..,',',.,.,,,.'..,..,..,..,..,.,.. - lilkgd26, on 07/30/2008, -3/+14I feel like each article I've read on McCain makes him seem less and less classy.
- havefuntimes, on 07/30/2008, -19/+29Unlike McCain, Obama is a peaceful man and doesn't think that attacking is necessary to win. He believes that Americans have their own minds.
Here is probably the best picture of what Obama is really like.
http://socalspaces.com/obama-picture-peaceful - nobillary, on 07/30/2008, -5/+15Yes, you're right DuggDowner, but you're missing an important point: the "low-information" voter doesn't know it's all lies!
If I weren't retired, living in a rural area, (and thanks to high gas prices) don't go very far from home, I wouldn't be lucky enough to have the time to follow the Election as closely as I do. I'd probably be falling for McCain's lies hook, line and sinker, too. After all, he IS a War Hero, and a "maverick", Right?
I'm an Obama supporter so I wouldn't have voted for McCain in the upcoming GE anyway, but I always held him in high regard and had great respect for him as a person. Not anymore. Now he's just a grouchy old man that is using the old Clinton/Rove Playbook to get elected.I
Oh, and one other thing, though I hate to beat a dead horse. Do you think after we travel that Iran/Pakistan border to Czechoslovakia, maybe he'll tell us once again that he's going to run a "respectful" campaign? - WasabiBomb, on 07/30/2008, -1/+11Sorry, it's McCain that paints McCain in an horrible light. Huffingtonpost and Digg just report the news, they don't make it.
- snotrokit, on 07/30/2008, -3/+13The saddest part about this, is that most people (those that don't read Digg, Redditt, Huff, etc.) take these ads at face value. Most people just can't fathom that someone could just outright lie about someone like that. Their answer is always, "They just can't do that, it MUST be true". I know several people like this. I fight them off as best I can, and try to educate them and open their eyes to something other than Fox News, but it is an uphill battle.
As much as we (those that DO read Digg, Redditt, Huff, etc.) know this to true, but we my friends, are a minority. - PopcornDave, on 07/30/2008, -0/+9Better question: When was the last time McCain did anything news worthy besides level charges at his opponent?
For the love of God, John. Get out and actually do something that the press can cover. Enough with the "my opponent sucks and here's why" *****. Make the case for *your * being elected, otherwise shut the ***** up and go home.
Not that it will make much of a difference but it would be a welcome change. - damntourists, on 07/30/2008, -1/+10@l300, i bet you're part of the reason we're all in this ***** hole. thanks for helping us elect an idiot twice.
- azhura, on 07/30/2008, -3/+11I say "keep it up" because I'd rather have McCain be the honest, negative retard that he is rather than try to fake being intellegent and compassionate (which he isn't). If he keeps up this slander, Americans will realize who he really is - a racist, facist SOB.
- phrenzy, on 07/30/2008, -1/+9Yep! We could even use the sloga "Fair And Balanced!" oh wait...
- WasabiBomb, on 07/30/2008, -0/+8A hijack, but I'll go ahead and play.
How many US combat deaths would we have if the Republicans hadn't started the war in the first place? - highlymodified, on 07/30/2008, -2/+10-Obama didn't want to spend taxpayer money on a PR event.
-Marxist? Seriously? Can you tell the difference b/w liberalism and Marxism? just ***** google it.
-California, who pays the highest gas $ in the USA, doesn't want to drill offshore and ruin their state. The oil companies would just hold onto it until the prices rise again, so no relief for us.
-Clinton was criticized by the Repub congress for "spending too much time/money on finding Osama"
If you use factual information (with punctuation) you'll find people may take you seriously.
Until then, keep watching O'Reily and stereotyping those who disagree with you, ya prick. - damntourists, on 07/30/2008, -4/+11i want to smack you.
- inactive, on 07/30/2008, -4/+11I enjoyed the cinematography of this one.
- pingveno, on 07/30/2008, -1/+8I fully expected this campaign to get nasty, but outright lies straight from the campaigns? I expected other groups to be the ones spitting out the blatant lies, not the campaigns themselves.
- nydwarf, on 07/30/2008, -0/+7yeah what's so Radical Left Wing about what he wants?
- nydwarf, on 07/30/2008, -0/+7What kind of negatives are you talking about? Oh the truth for example?
- Nanite, on 07/30/2008, -2/+8Wow, blocked for being the stupidest shill on Digg that I've seen so far. What with Mccain paying you guys to shovel horse ***** for him on the internet all day, I thought I'd seen them all. So far you take the cake for ignorance, downright lies, and misinformation. Congrats!
- PopcornDave, on 07/30/2008, -0/+6It's not that they don't know that they're lies, they don't care. It's easier to be told what to do than to have to think for yourself.
- phrenzy, on 07/30/2008, -2/+8If you consider Obama a "left wing radical" than you are most likely a right-wing nut.
- damntourists, on 07/30/2008, -0/+6yeah but i'd rather have a crybaby than a village idiot.
- damntourists, on 07/30/2008, -2/+813? hopefully that'll jinx mccain more than he already is.
- bonmot5, on 04/08/2009, -2/+8I thought Rove was hiding somewhere outside of the US to keep from testifying on the Plame debacle.
- JinnRikki, on 07/30/2008, -0/+5So if Obama is a liar what is McCain? Just this weekend he says all options are on the table to "fix" Social Security. Then he turns around and says he won't raise FICA taxes. That's just the latest McCain prevarication, stick around though, it's still early in the day
- bjornski, on 07/30/2008, -0/+5C'mon. Weren't you guys just whining that McCain wasn't getting any media attention?
Well, now he is. And he's bringing it on by seeing just how far he can stick his foot in his mouth. - damntourists, on 07/30/2008, -0/+5aww he loves his master. how kyoot.
- rottencod, on 07/30/2008, -5/+10I'm an Obama supporter and everything, but do you think we could try to start finding some pro-Obama pieces that DON'T come from the Huffington Post? Digg is starting to look like a clearinghouse for that place...
- Sapulator, on 07/30/2008, -4/+9if he believes americans has their own minds, right to privacy, etc...why did he vote for the FISA act?
obama's just like the rest of em
if he's a peaceful man, why does he advocate attacking Iran? ("leaving nothing off the table"...etc etc) - bjornski, on 07/30/2008, -0/+5The McCain campaign CAN NOT focus people's attention on John and his actions. Run on the issues? Even John himself doesn't know what the issues the McCain campaign stands for.
He'd lose, by a landslide.
Another typical Republican campaign. Detract attention from yourself, attack your opponent, and try to scare the living ***** out of the voters. - WasabiBomb, on 07/30/2008, -2/+7McCain would be committing political suicide if he did that. Now run off back to Stormfront, I300.
- vietnam2nd, on 07/30/2008, -10/+15John McCain owes Obama a apology for calling him a traitor to his country. that is what it is if he didn't care about American lives in Iraq just winning a campaign. he owes the American people apology to for suggesting such a thing. there was one time as a democrat i was going to vote for him as i like him but no more. i wouldn't vote for him as dog catcher he would ***** that job up also. he is stupid man with Alzheimer's and ptsd.
- bjornski, on 07/30/2008, -0/+5Oh c'mon. He reminded us to wear sunscreen.
That helps everyone! -
