Headline on MSNBC (Politics) -

McCain tries to define Obama as out of touch
Campaign takes a page from ’04 race, attacks Dem on perceived strength

I would really enjoy bitch-slapping that slug, John McCain. I really, really would.

[mnaz]

Isn't that kind of like a Model-T calling a 2008 Honda hybrid technically inferior?

[mtmynd]

that's about it, mnaz.

I swear, this country and it's political tastes have absolutely baffled me the past 8 years. And it wasn't because nobody warned the general populace, quite the contrary. And now McCain... what a fucking Republican prize he is! Have you noticed how often that other piece of waste, Lieberman, hangs around McCain? What a pitiful pair they make. That seems to be the best the Republicans can do and yet - they are giving the Dems a run for their money. Un-fucking-believable! And the Repubs haven't even really begun to fight.

I wish someone would answer why anyone would favor a party that lies and deceives, a party that supports corporations not people, and why people would choose a party that loves warring and hates anything social... why would anyone vote somebody like that into office and think for a minute, those same people will turn around and lie and deceive the same public that voted them in?

My head spins in disbelief... America has to be the un-wisest, the most apathetic and foolish people on earth today. Our future truly is headed for a major collapse before we'll ever recognize what an incredibly blind path we've been on. Wasn't it Pogo that said: "I've seen the enemy and it is Us" ?

Well, if we the people vote for McCain, then we the people are out of touch. That's how I see it in the most basic terms.

But what should seem a fairly clear-cut need for accelerated human evolution by probably more than half the world's population at this point is undercut by so many factors still in play.. fear, fear, and more fear, good old-fashioned greed, fatalist and violent religious superstitions and political dissonance, and just the general ongoing unsettled turmoil in the wake of the Twentieth Century-- like no other century in human history... unparalleled population and technology explosions and physical drain on the planet.. all of that and more.

We got to get rid of the mindset from the past and get into the mindset of the future instead!!!!

Are you registered to vote Cecil?

It would probably be more helpful just to vote for Obama.

[Nazz]

though ya gotta admit,
bitch-slapping McCain could have a cathartic sort of effect,
especially for McCain..

[mtmynd]

truck,, of course i am. and i will vote for B.O..

it's just that I would be comforted by bitch-slapping McCain. Something about his smirk that immediately reminds me of Dubya... not to mention McCain's pro-Bush voting record...

[stilltrucking]

Well I have it on good authority (Clay January) that McCain will be a victory for the american people.

McCain has been bitched slapped plenty it did not seem to help.

[Nazz]

Who the hell is Clay January?

And isn't McCain getting really old?

Well, his Gop Shtick is, at least..

Shalom and salud, fer crissake.

I'm a bad speller.

Not really.

[stilltrucking]

Cecil's thread
he is a bad old man
I don't want to hijcak(sick) his thread.

But you asked
Who is Clay January

A good question?

I think he is a young republican.





love peace and taco grease.

[mtmynd]

at this point in politics it is anyone's guess who will become the next president. if there is anyone out 'there' that knows beyond a shadow of doubt who that person will be I believe they should let America know so we can take a shortcut past all the non-sense and bullshit being tossed about against each of the candidates.

[stilltrucking]

Interesting sidebar or segway about this election Cecil. Half the money spent on adveritsing is spent on Google. You can "buy" words, McCain maybe be a luddite but he got plenty of media savy people.

Nobody knows, and who ever wins life will go on. very close so far something like 47% Obama to 45% McCain. Which is kind of suprising they say. I mean the political pundits seemed puzzled why it is so close considering the discontent with Republicans. You would think Obama would have a bigger lead they say.

I am hoping that the debates with McCain will help him like they made JFK with Nixon.

yeah ten four on the bullshit, but it still seems lopsided to me. I mean more of it coming Obama's way than McCain's.

But I don't get around much on the net, not for politics anyway. Just going by what I read in my daily newspaper everyday.

I think a McCain win would be a third term for this administration. All he has to do is pick Lieberman for VP and it would be perfect.

[stilltrucking]

Most Americans still don’t know, as Marshall writes, that on the campaign trail “McCain frequently forgets key elements of policies, gets countries’ names wrong, forgets things he’s said only hours or days before and is frequently just confused.” Most Americans still don’t know it is precisely for this reason that the McCain campaign has now shut down the press’s previously unfettered access to the candidate on the Straight Talk Express.

The Candidate We Still Don't Know

[hester_prynne]

Obama will win.
McCain can in no way win, especially with his stance on abortion, I mean how could women let this pass as legislature? I find it hard to believe that we are still as patriarchaic as that.
I watched the evangelical questioning show the other night, where that guru who wrote the puppet driven life ( I think that was the name of his book), was asking each candidate questions in a roomful of evangelicals and it struck me as very telling. McCain is a warboy, still into war as the answer, I mean their answers regarding how to deal with "evil" were very telling. McCain said to "kill it", Obama said to "confront it". Who couldn't agree with Obama on this issue? It was like watching a spoiled kid and an evolved adult answering the same questions.
I believe that we have had to learn alot in the past 8 years and my sense is that people will vote for Obama, out of self preservation if nothing else, and they even may lie about it.
Perhaps I am too naive?
I hope not. Giving the evangelicals so much political power as we have has nearly killed us all.
I'm concerned the most about the media, they will be the ones who will get McCain elected in a betrayal to the people of this country they might not even be conscious of. I don't think they know how much they can sway people with their coverage and I think they have been really irresponsible in that they seem hell bent on covering the inquirer type hysteria, rather than telling us what we really need to know.
Be savvy, be smart, don't believe every thing you read, do the research, and your only choice then really is to vote for Obama and get the Bush-driven circus out of our lives.
