- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -44/+151Yes, John, by continuing to support the incredibly unpopular murder spree in Iraq, you will lose.
But don't feel too bad, after the decade of utter failure of your right wing ideology, Americans were going to *****-can you right wing nut cases anyway. - raisputin3, on 02/27/2008, -35/+95McCain knows he will lose over Iraq, he should drop out and endorse Ron Paul :)
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -7/+60I think the straight talk express needs to pull over....
- gypsi, on 02/27/2008, -8/+51i don't know if cheney is holding mccain's great-granddaughter ransom or something, but it's strange how mccain seemingly fell in line with the bush administration where he was once a vocal critic. it's sad how he's a pathetic lap dog these days.
- Terr01, on 02/27/2008, -5/+40On the contrary, I'm objecting to the kind of stupidity which automatically marginalizes you because you didn't think things through before using wild-eyed hyperbole.
Describing our occupation in Iraq as a "murder spree" is to occupy the same moron-zone as those folks who say that objecting to unconstitutional detention of suspects is "coddling terrorists", or anti-abortionists who say that "liberals want to kill your babies".
And then there's the closely related kind of stupidity where you lie down and let people (even if you more or less agree with their policy opinions) step forward and indirectly represent you with nutty talk about "supporting a murder spree" and "surrendering to the terrorists"! - magoghm, on 02/27/2008, -25/+51Ron Paul is the only Republican who might have a chance to beat Obama.
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -8/+32A) Stop spamming your crap site.
B) Iraq is NOT ours. That's the ***** point.
C) The "nuclear terrorist" card is played out. Why don't you try "Commies?" - steelersfan7roe, on 02/27/2008, -10/+34And he should.
He shouldn't be looked at as noble. Rather he should be recognized as belligerently supporting this war with NO END IN SIGHT.
Elections are about ideas. And his view in this respect, is wrong, and voters will vote accordingly. - Terr01, on 02/27/2008, -16/+37"Murder spree?" Uhm... I consider myself a liberal Progressive, but let's not go all Cindy-Sheehan here.
- tillerman00, on 02/27/2008, -7/+28Unfortunately, I'm not sure how much what he says even matters. The voting machines will do the deciding.
- lamprey187, on 02/27/2008, -13/+33really????? He is running a great campaign. Gee whiz, 100 year occupation of Iraq, I don't understand the economy, VOTE FOR ME.
/sarcasm - gypsi, on 02/27/2008, -2/+18time for a nap
- CTK14A, on 02/27/2008, -4/+20"Unpopular murder spree"
I'm pretty certain that by definition murder sprees aren't popular. Just saying. - elamr, on 02/27/2008, -7/+22magoghm, I love Ron Paul. I want to make sweet, sweet love to his constitutional stance, but he COULD NOT win against Obama. The American majority does not want him. That is really hard pill to swallow, but its true. America has become pretty socialist.. look at the remain candidates and wake up.
- Sogui, on 02/27/2008, -5/+19Because he's one of the few reasonable people who can see that by withdrawing quickly from our "murder spree" would only generate a REAL murder spree, civil war... genocide... complete collapse of national infrastructure... mass killings... lawlessness... chaos... those things would all be on the table if the US pulls out before the Iraqis are ready to handle their own security and stability. McCain wants to stay until we can achieve that, and then he'd pull us off the front lines just like the democrats would.
It was a mistake to go to Iraq, but leaving early would have disastrous consequences... almost all experts agree on that much. So unless you're a big fan of genocide, I don't think sticking around for another 2 years sounds so bad in comparison. - homah, on 02/27/2008, -3/+17Ya, I can't wait for national healthcare. Then I can get quality treatment like at the VA hospitals. All hail government efficiency.
- homah, on 02/27/2008, -9/+23Give me 5 reasons why your candidate is better than Paul...go.
- SheilaNoya, on 02/27/2008, -3/+16The Iraqis don't want the "terrorists" there any more than we do. No outsiders are going to come in and take over there country - We already tried that route and it was a complete disaster. Futhermore, there is no invisible Muslim army that is going to jump on their non-existent ships and "follow us home".
- FlaG8r, on 02/27/2008, -5/+17Did he mention all the other reasons why he's going to lose?
- N3tw0rk, on 02/27/2008, -1/+13"somewhere along the way, the Straight Talk Express lost some wheels..."
But seriously, at least he admits that he could lose, unlike another candidate I know who claims "inevitability" and says "I will be the nominee", "I will..", "me, me, ME"! - bobangitanov2, on 02/27/2008, -7/+18How do I say this... "NO ***** SHERLOCK!"
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -8/+19RON PAUL!!!
- khail250, on 02/27/2008, -2/+12Stop spamming digg with your damn scragged links! http://digg.com/users/natsmythe/history/comments
- magoghm, on 02/27/2008, -5/+15You have a completely wrong idea of what free markets are about. But I don't blame you, we all have been living in a world where politicians use the excuse of free markets to do anything they want do, it never has anything to do with real free markets and most of the time it is something that ends up ***** up a the life of many.
- madfrogurt, on 02/27/2008, -19/+29Man I love seeing a truther endorce Ron Paul. It's my favorite combination of crazy.
- aliceinreality, on 02/27/2008, -3/+12Pssst...start with "one".
- MacEnvy, on 02/27/2008, -2/+11@thomoore/natsmythe
(You forgot to login as your other username when you replied. Hard to keep up with your duplicate Scragged spam accounts, I understand.) - Coven, on 02/27/2008, -4/+12I'm pretty certain lobbing a hand grenade into the midst of a Westboro Baptist Church funeral protest will be a very popular murder spree.
Just saying. - Smoove, on 02/27/2008, -5/+13I shouldn't have raped your wife. But now that I've broken her, I own her. That's why I'm still holding her prisoner in my apartment.
- ziptnf, on 02/27/2008, -3/+11Hey, anyone remember when McCain used to be moderate?
- SpartySinger, on 02/27/2008, -7/+15Is he just realizing this?
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -3/+11That's right, we broke it... Because we are incompetent oafs who didn't know what the HELL we were doing. Well guess what? That hasn't changed. It's like trying to repair a broken vase with a hammer. No, it's like if Homer Simpson breaks your *****, you keep it the hell away from him, because if he tries to fix it, not only will it not work, but it'll probably try to kill you.
- brstilson, on 02/27/2008, -3/+11Do you REALLY believe that it would be OK for another country to meddle in our political affairs the same way we do to Islamic countries?
- floorman56, on 02/27/2008, -0/+7Funny how people forget " The Killing Fields" ...Now they want to do it again
Listen if you guys want the pull the military out of somewhere ...pull them out of Europe
If 5 years in Iraq is too long ...How do you explain 63 in Europe? AND NO ONE IS ATTACKING EUROPE! - nicholai, on 02/27/2008, -1/+8The people that are burying you don't even know that conservatives are supposed to oppose war and wasteful spending.
- darny, on 02/27/2008, -3/+10*****, and ***** again. The task shouldn't be convincing anyone of anything. The task should be to determine if we're winning or not, and then determining how to GTFO as quickly as possible. Why is anyone still even considering continuing Bush's practices of trying to rally us with lies and ***** *****!!????. McCain is fired. NEXT!
- oldhick, on 02/27/2008, -3/+10Yeah! Screw freedom! Screw the Constitution! More big Government, More big Government, More big Government!!! Say it loud and say it proud folks...
- oboy, on 02/27/2008, -3/+9There are many ways he can lose.
- Arcueid01, on 02/27/2008, -2/+8Ron Paul is the only one who could have won against Obama, good job republican's you're all a bunch of noobs. Oh yeah and democrats, you are noobs too. Look at your candidtates voting records. I don't need to say ***** more about how big of noobs you are.
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -21/+27Yes, personally I am sure people would LOVE to vote for someone who wants to define a zygote as a person and grant them the rights of personhood (read: basically circumventing the supreme court and 14th amendment, creating a nationwide abortion ban, as it would be defined as manslaughter)
Yes, personally I would LOVE to vote for someone who believes the founding fathers envisioned" a robustly Christian yet religiously tolerant America, with churches serving as vital institutions that would eclipse the state in importance."
Yes, I would personally LOVE to vote for someone (an MD no less), who REJECTS EVOLUTION.
Yes, I would LOVE to personally vote for someone who wants to abolish all Federally funded Scientific/medical research, along with higher education loans/GRANTS.
Yes, I would personally LOVE to vote for somebody who wants to Abolish the Food And drug administration, so as the drugs and food that would appear on the market would be completely untested and unregulated
Yes, I would LOVE to vote for someone who wants to get rid of anti-trust laws, and corporate regulation in general. I mean, why were those laws even established in the first place?
Oh wait, I don't want any of those ridiculous things. But yes, keeping voting for him because "FREEDOMZ IS POPULARZ LOL!!" - Kenzan, on 02/27/2008, -4/+10McCain seems a tad senile.
- puter, on 02/27/2008, -2/+8In that case, you need to get out more.
- floorman56, on 02/27/2008, -2/+8"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." -- From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998
"(Saddam) will rebuild his arsenal of weapons of mass destruction and some day, some way, I am certain he will use that arsenal again, as he has 10 times since 1983" -- National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Feb 18, 1998
Iraq made commitments after the Gulf War to completely dismantle all weapons of mass destruction, and unfortunately, Iraq has not lived up to its agreement." -- Barbara Boxer, November 8, 2002
The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow." -- Bill Clinton in 1998 - Jlaugh, on 02/27/2008, -3/+8I lived in Canada for 10 years growing up, socialized medicine blows away our cartel system. No bills, no paperwork, no bureaucracy. Down here it's fill out these papers, wait in line, etc. Maybe we could hire Canadians to run it. I agree our VA is horrible, my cousin is in that Byzantine snake pit. America never has taken proper care of disabled vets, you'd think that such a militant country would treat them with great respect.
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -1/+6She does for me!
- elamr, on 02/27/2008, -2/+7The more we "Cowboy Up" and uproot dictators (Saddam), and elected officials (see 1951 Prime Minister Mohammed Mosaddeq, Iran) and support dictators we like (Musharav) with or without the people's majority consent in the Middle East we will continue to create more threats for ourselves.
Not all American citizens would not sit on there hands if another country came in and uprooted our leadership and bombed our infrastructure. Even if if was the "ASS HATS" we have in office now, we would unite like it was 9/11 and kick the ***** out whoever invaded. It would not be pretty. - inactive, on 02/27/2008, -9/+14What I think is that if we don't get the hell out of their countries and stop murdering their civilians they will be completely justified if they turn more and more radically against us. I REALLY think that the government of Pakistan is Pakistani business and not ours. So whether you and the right wing freaks think the government of Pakistan is good or bad doesn't REALLY matter.
REALLY! - stretch611, on 02/27/2008, -1/+6Personally, I think the straight talk express broke an axle when McCain backed down from his beef with Bush over torture. Even it it could hobble along at that point, the straight talk was repossessed by the Bank when McCain started to cozy up to the ultra conservative religious nut jobs.
- Coven, on 02/27/2008, -0/+5Ok...so then we do them in one at a time in 3 minute intervals with a garden hose and a butter knife. Use your imagination on that one.
- inactive, on 02/27/2008, -3/+8That's the most absurd statement I've ever heard. Nobody believes the government about anything anymore. If they truly wanted to deceive us, they would've just come right out and said, "Yeah, we were behind 9/11. Our bad," because not a single damn person would believe them.
