McCain’s staff and Bush’s staff talk ‘everyday.’

At a lunch hosted today by the Christian Science Monitor, former uber-lobbyist Charlie Black, who is a senior adviser to Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), said that McCain’s staff talks to the President Bush’s staff “everyday.” Black also said that before McCain offered harsh words last week about Bush’s response to Hurricane Katrina, the campaign gave the White House a “head’s up.”

    But, I thought McSame was trying to DISTNACE himself from the legacy of Chimpy.

    I guess it was another “Straight talking” lie.


  2. robbez_92107 says:

    DISTNACE s/b DISTANCE – sorry


  3. dasm says:

    As if we needed any more proof that those 2 are in bed together.


  4. Namtillaku says:

    Not to mention that Rove is actually working for the McCain campaign.


  5. Witch1 says:

    Just another day, 5 thread’s dedicated to the insane mccane..


  6. Doc Rock says:

    McBush is in Dubya’s pocket on Karl Rove’s chain.

    – - Whadda maverick!!

    Everyday, it’s gettin’ closer, goin’ faster than a rollercoaster, Everyday, it’s a gettin’ faster, Everyone says go ahead and ask Bush and McCain if they’re in love or “just good friends” …

    With an apology to Buddy Holly, who in his most depressed thoughts, could never have imagined the Bush fascist corporate nightmare that we have been living through in the first years of the 21st century…

    Yeah, and after trashing him in the 2000 campaign. Politics makes for strange bedfellows, eh?

    I recall that after Rudy dropped out of the race he endorsed McCain as the most qualified candidate to lead the country. Guess that makes Rudy less qualified. Lucky us.

    And our local U.S. Rep., David Davis, at a campaign appearance with Huckabee told him that he’d officially endorse him only if he became the nominee.


  11. Keith H. says:

    Their staff talks daily and then when everyone’s watching, McAncient and his daddy embrace.
    He’s a real chip off the ‘ol block . . head.


  12. KayInMaine says:

    Well, that explains all the lying, deceiving, and manipulating of facts by John McCain. He’s been talking with George!



  13. questioneverything says:

    Grover is a criminal. He’s never mentioned in the MSM. McSame is thinking he has fooled everybody. Not me, not all of you. But way too many uninformed voters.


  14. Shayne says:

    Not to worry, by tomorrow the “flip-flop express” will tell us these two camps never communicate.


  15. ArtZ says:

    “before McCain offered harsh words last week about Bush’s response to Hurricane Katrina, the campaign gave the White House a “head’s up.”

    As if Bush’s people didn’t know they screwed up the response to Hurricane Katrina.

    whatta maverick!

    – - Hey, what’s with the echo in here?


  17. stjack says:

    does this mean he ran the “we won’t have to send soldiers to the middle east to die if we figure out an energy independence policy” by the white house beforehand?


  18. USpace says:

    This is all very interesting, that Republicans would speak to each other often. But what about Boris Johnson?

    Bloody good news! Praise the Lord! Thank God! There is hope for Londonistan. What will Red Ken do next?

    They talk with each other….any toe tapping? What do they have to talk about really…except taking care of the Corporate Elite they work for.


  20. jb says:

    Can you just imagine the brilliant conversations between W and McSenile? There’s got to be comedy mixed in with the tradgedy.


  21. jb says:

    W and Grampa are like the Guinness guys on TV with their goofy ideas….BRILLIANT! The world would be better off if they both just retired to the Pub.


  22. Marie says:

    A McCain presidency would be different from Bush.
    NOT!


  23. pete says:

    I’m finally seeing the difference between the Chimperror and McPander Bear. The Chimp will stick to the same, often nonsensical, point regardless of real world events. McPander Bear, on the other hand, can barely make it through a complete sentence without contradicting himself.

    Save us Jebus!


  24. sacopenapa says:

    So that means the WAR CRIMINAL Rove still talks to Bush’s staff everyday.

    Where is the War Criminal Rice??? since the news about the secret meeting on the US’s TORTURE program in the WH came out she disapperared… Where is she? She has to unswer a lot of questions reagarding her misleading statements to Congress and the American people!!!! Ricemustgo.com !!!


  25. And Yet... says:

    McCain is flying on autopilot. BushCo autopilot. Might make an effective DNC ad.


  26. OleHippieChick says:

    JAYZ! What kind of a source is THAT? “Everyday” for “every day,” “head’s up” for “heads up.” Abusing apostrophes and the now-common misuse of “everyday” for “every day” has turned into an everyday thing.
    Civilization in decline…


  27. Freedom Rebel says:

    The reason the McCain staff is giving the Bush staff the “heads-up” is because everyone is beating up on George. Laura finds it demoralizing. She’s having a tough time with the truth. My suggestion, they just medicate her heavily.


  28. McWars says:

    McCain’s staff and Bush’s staff talk ‘everyday.’

    We need to get to the bottom of this. There is no place in our government for taxpayer-funded phone sex.


  29. ArtZ says:

    So John McCain is a maverick.

    Y’all know what we call maverick’s here in New Orleans?

    …Losers.


  30. ArtZ says:

    The extra apostrophe is for OleHippieChick.


  31. Cal Malenky says:

    My prediction:
    If McCain is way behind in October, expect Bush to pull some stunt, like bombing Iran, to help Johnnie.


  32. DallasNE says:

    So a vote for McCain in November is a vote for a 3rd Bush term. That is what this means to me. McCain sure as hell isn’t distancing himself from Bush, that’s for sure.


  33. OleHippieChick says:

    Unrecalcitrant Mcbu$hCain lickers everywhere continue pushing their arrogant delusions. Sick. There can never be an end to it or their world crashes in. Sick.

    ArtZ Says:

    The extra apostrophe is for OleHippieChick.

    THhhbbbbppppttbtbt, brat!


  34. MCMetal says:

    McCain’s staff and Bush’s staff talk ‘everyday.’

    I guess those with little to no ideas want to try and appear that they’re also into ‘brainstorming’ ; even though it resembles more of a drizzle than a storm………..


  35. Evil Spaniard says:

    They aren’t the SAME staff?
