- AtHomeBoy2000, on 07/22/2008, -28/+86Phil Gramm was right, there are a lot of whinny Americans, they just happen to be mostly living in the McCain campaign.
- Cuchanu, on 07/22/2008, -11/+62 It's like if he repeats "the surge is successful" enough we will forget it was a ***** war in the first place. He's back to his old Jedi Mind Tricks.
- GorfTron, on 07/23/2008, -10/+49McCain will be just fine. He has a lifetime supply of walnuts stored in his jowls.
- quiggibub, on 07/23/2008, -9/+44Obama has a chance if young people actually get out and VOTE. I think Ron Paul showed that if you just sit on your ass, whacking off to every mention of a candidates name, that candidate won't stand a chance.
- inactive, on 07/22/2008, -10/+33"Since Obama departed overseas--on a trip McCain baited him to take"....
be careful of what you wish for! - Kingmishima, on 07/23/2008, -5/+27Does it even matter at this point? Pretty sure Obama is already president and is just waiting for Bush to move all of his super-villain junk out of the white house.
- bincoder, on 07/22/2008, -16/+37Fortunately, 'the world' can't vote in a US election unless 'the world' moves to and becomes a citizen of the US.
So much for what 'the world' wants. - inactive, on 07/22/2008, -13/+33ROFL, I hear McCain is going to pick Bobby Jindal
A crazy old man and an even crazier Republican psychopath running for President - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -16/+36Here is a summary of the article for those who do not want to waste time reading it:
John McCain is campaigning for President of the United States against Barack Obama. The author is perturbed by this. - Conwaysb0718, on 07/23/2008, -9/+29Honestly, I cant get behind either candidate because I dont follow either of their political ideologies, but if you put a gun to my head and told me i had to pick one or the other, i'd probably go with Obama. One reason is hey, if they are gonna tax/borrow trillions of dollars from the public/china for their various reasons, i'd rather it was spent on social programs at home rather than on some global trrrrist manhunt protecting me from some bogeyman. Another reason is that i dont think obama is as deep into favors as mccain is, and in this case, I think a lack of experience means not having to pay back a lifetime of political favors.
But, when it comes down to it I most likely wont be voting for either and will be "wasting my vote" on a write in. - inactive, on 07/22/2008, -14/+30And by "the world" we mean "the press."
- EarlOfLade, on 07/23/2008, -8/+23And today, McCain was met by 1 -ONE- journalist at the airport. The rest of the press corpse is overseas with the next president.
- VPurpmalkV, on 07/23/2008, -5/+19And how often were plains flying into buildings since before 9/11?
- Gerz1219, on 07/23/2008, -4/+18Homer: "There's not a single bear in sight--the 'Bear Patrol' is working like a charm".
Lisa: "That's specious reasoning,"
Homer: "Thanks, honey,"
Lisa: "According to your logic, this rock keeps tigers away".
Homer: "Hmmm. How does it work?"
Lisa: "It doesn't."
Homer: "How so?"
Lisa: "It's just a rock, but I don't see a tiger, anywhere."
Homer: "Lisa, I want to buy your rock." - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -2/+15Chuck Baldwin's official slogan: "God, Family, and the Republic."
Theocrat? No thanks.
And have you seen the "constitution" party's homepage? They might as well rename themselves the christitution party and get it over with. - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -4/+16LOL @ "press corpse."
- NelsonR, on 07/23/2008, -7/+18McCain, the media and every other crackpot say, "The surge is working".
Tell that to the hundreds of American families who lost a loved one.
Tell that to the thousands of Iraqi dead and displaced.
Tell that to our bankrupt nation and the billions squandered daily.
What have we gained? Why did America attack a sovereign nation, OIL?
America will go down in history as a bully and rightfully so while, again our news personal cry out, "We are winning this war". Unbelievable.
The Sunni's and Shia's will go to war against one another eventually while for now most are em placed within their own religious sphere. Our leaders are dolts and our media is a shrill for unsound reasoning. - Suneet67, on 07/22/2008, -3/+13The constitution party is futile... vote for Change or McSame
- Logicexe, on 07/23/2008, -6/+15You know what's really funny about this whole surge thing? It was always supposed to be a temporary increase in troop levels to help stabilize the region. If McCain really believed that the surge worked and did mostly what it was supposed to do he would be in favor of returning the troop level back down to pre-surge levels. The fact that he doesn't want to decrease troop levels either means he doesn't really think the surge worked, or the surge was never a "surge" to begin with but was deliberate lie to get more troops into the region while claiming it was only temporary.
- charm803, on 07/23/2008, -1/+10There is a difference between Latinos and illegal immigrants.
Illegals can't vote. Latinos can. - mrfreeziexp, on 07/23/2008, -5/+14If he chooses anyone that even looks remotely like a middle-easterner, he will lose a big chunk of his support: the racist vote. I'm being serious.
- woodrow8292, on 07/23/2008, -3/+11Just remember "Dewey defeats Truman!" Seems like the media has elected Obama already. I guess we will find out what people really think when they walk in and pull the lever in Nov.
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -4/+12and of course you yourself would never make rash assumptions about groups of people...
- rlh1, on 07/23/2008, -3/+10"" Since Obama departed overseas--on a trip McCain baited him to take-- ""
That McCain must be pretty crafty to trick him into taking that trip..... - WasabiBomb, on 07/23/2008, -5/+12I think you're a little unclear on the meaning of the word "bias", Muyoso.
The press isn't covering Obama more because they want him to be elected- they're covering him more because more people are interested in him. - sodade, on 07/23/2008, -8/+15No doubt - "boo hoo, I am so skeered of terrists, I'm willing to flush our rights down the toilet."
***** pussies. - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -6/+13Well actually, no major attacks like the biggest one in history, but there are now attacks on our soldiers every day b/c of this stupid war. Don't forget, they're Americans too.
- withears, on 07/23/2008, -4/+11McCainus has NOTHING. He's tied his chances for the presidency to George W. Bush and now he's paying the price.
There is only 1 thing left - fear. That's the only thing that McCainus and the rest of the republicans can run on.
Expect the terror level to be set to Volcanic right before the elections. - throop77, on 07/23/2008, -3/+10"The State Department decided to stop publishing an annual report on international terrorism after the government's top terrorism center concluded that there were more terrorist attacks in 2004 than in any year since 1985, the first year the publication covered."
- sjmulder, on 07/23/2008, -2/+9I'm hearing a lot of positive sounds about him around me, here in the Netherlands. And some negative stuff of course, but there's certainly more positive talk.
- ryan69969, on 07/23/2008, -6/+13Well since the Republicans have done such a fine job keeping the American people terrorized on their own, why should Al-Qaida even bother attacking us? Their 9/11 work is still paying fear dividends.
- zeusthemoose, on 07/23/2008, -8/+14Right, because every year before 911 we had terrorist attacks on our soil!
If you actually look at the facts (and not the ***** that you claim to be facts), it was the bush administration who ignored al-qaeda all along. Clinton warned him specifically that there was intelligence that suggested that Osama was up to something, and he ignored it. Bush said Iraq was the real threat (which in fact was no threat whatsoever). Clinton had a chance to take Osama out, but if you actually remember history (and not that ***** revisionist crap that you call history) the Republican's were up in arms (i.e. being isolationists) towards any attack on either Iraq or Afghanistan (if you remember, he did launch cruise missiles at the terrorist training camps in Afghanistan and the republicans crapped a ***** storm over this claiming it was wasteful government spending, oh the irony!). You guys are nothing but a bunch of smoke and mirrors. You cling onto your lies so that ignorant people will vote for the party of the rich which keeps on getting richer. You need to open your eyes and see reality for what it is. - geekee, on 07/23/2008, -2/+8Pointing out Obama's policies are idiotic is hardly getting desperate. He keeps presenting this false dilemma that to save Afghanistan you need to abandon Iraq. If he gets his way, in twenty years the US will need to reinvade Iraq to fix it like they're fixing Afghanistan now because of bad policy in the 80's. Obama hasn't learned from history. The best we can hope for if he gets elected is that Iraq will be stable enough to survive despite his bad policies.
- Cuchanu, on 07/22/2008, -10/+16I don't know about that. McCain's one hope for winning this election is that white people who would normally vote democrat don't this year because Obama is "scary". If they put Jindal (Indian, but to a ignorant racist he might as well be black) on the ticket with McCain who could die at any time it might not sit well with the poor racists.
- atdigg, on 07/22/2008, -16/+22what to expect from an angry old man....
- DiscussObamaCOM, on 07/23/2008, -14/+20Unfortunately, the rest of the world is still picking intelligent leaders to lead their country. The U.S. is struggling to choose between a senile moron who graduated 5th from the bottom of his class or someone who graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard University but his middle name is Hussein! Screw intelligence and judgement, I want someone with a normal middle name!
- ryan69969, on 07/23/2008, -10/+16McCain is trying to appeal to both the Neocon-loving Jesus-campers who are gay for Bush while also trying to convince the other 65% of voters that he is somehow new and different and will fix all the problems that Bush got us into. It's a daunting challenge, so he is repeatedly appealing to people's fear--which is what ultimately worked for Bush in '00 and '04. The thing is, while the President is Commander-in-Chief of the military (McCain has yet to convince us that he is even qualified for that), the President's main, day-to-day job is running the federal bureaucracy. And he hasn't shown any willingness or desire to approach that part of the job with any seriousness. If the American voters can't be paralyzed by their fear of terrorists, McCain has really nothing to sell himself with.
- aussiejan, on 07/23/2008, -1/+7Obama (do learn his name - he is going to be your next president) was born in Honolulu. Last I heard that was still part of the United States. Or did Hawaii secede when I wasn't looking?
BTW, McCain was born in Panama. - timewarp424, on 07/23/2008, -5/+11And Obama's one hope for winning this election is that black people will vote for him just because he's black. The opposite sounds just racist as your statement, doesn't it? (Even though it's true that a good majority of African American's are voting for Obama... is that racist? Maybe)
- DiscussObamaCOM, on 07/23/2008, -7/+13Jesus Christ you're ignorant.
- pgoetz, on 07/23/2008, -3/+9What about that Pakistan - Iraq border McCain keeps talking about? Ain't we done need to be payin some attention to that?!
- Louis11, on 07/23/2008, -3/+9Just like every other previous election? Face it, a majority of young people don't vote.
- hcl40u, on 07/23/2008, -3/+9Now why would the press still embrace a dead tyrant?
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -3/+9Sorry you're getting dugg down, you are absolutely right. People who use the "Hussein" tactic are complete morons who feed on the ignorance of others. John McCain has the same name as John Wilkes Booth, so... He must want to take out Lincoln! What a dick! Sounds ridiculous right? I know.
- WasabiBomb, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7hittnrun+Digg = racist moron.
got it. - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7The so-called "surge" isn't the reason why violence is down in Iraq. The Sunnis whom we been fighting are on our payroll now.
I mean, even the Talibans will ceasefire if start paying them again. - bigstinky, on 07/23/2008, -0/+526thUSMC:
If you were in the military, I respect what you have done for our country. Aside from that, your arguments are weak and hate filled. You represent everything that is wrong with the American right. It is your mindset that sickens me and also lends me hope that we are in for a change. Obama is not perfect, but he's a hell of a lot better for this country than another 4 years of big money ***** extremism. This country is headed down the wrong path, it has been for 8 long years...And it's people with your narrow minded views that are keeping this great country from being what it should be. - charm803, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7"But, when it comes down to it I most likely wont be voting for either and will be "wasting my vote" on a write in."
It's not wasting your vote if you vote with your principles.
You get a digg.
;) - charm803, on 07/23/2008, -3/+8No he is not. He went with intent to speak to leaders not to negotiate.
You need to read things other than just the internets. - ouzome, on 07/23/2008, -2/+6Obama is actually the next adlai stevenson, oh wait the diggers are too young and naive to even know who that is!
