		<description>I want to believe that Obama can pull it off , but honestly I just dont see it happening. 

America just will not vote for a Black man whose middle name is Hussein. 

At this point Insane in Brain McCain could bite a babys head off on live TV and drink its blood and still be declared the winner come Nov.

		<description>My 2-cents (but what do I know?)

-OK, guy 1 (McCain) accepts the support of somebody (guy 2) that he doesn&#039;t agree with.

- The people of guy 2 think like him, hopefully.

- So, guy 1 wants to receive the votes of people that DON&#039;T think like him (guy 1 himself stated that much!) only to get elected!

My question: Isn&#039;t democracy a system based on representation? I mean, guy 1 gets elected with votes of people that he doesn&#039;t have any commitment with, right? So, once he is elected there is no accountability! He only responds to himself. See the danger?

How did we let it get so out-of-control?</description>

		<description>Blueflash,

&lt;em&gt;He fervently believes the Rapture is immanent in the Middle East and apparently that it will take John-Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran-McCain to further it along.&lt;/em&gt;

Excellent point.  This is also one of the reasons America blindly supports Israel despite the fact that most Israelis support a two-state solution.

&lt;em&gt;Naturally, our horse’s @ss of a media obsesses over the fundamentally powerless Rev. Wright...&lt;/em&gt;

Reminicent of the right&#039;s obsession with the equally powerless college professors, teachers or whomever the scapegoat de jour happens to be.  All while our worse than useless media laps it up unquestioningly.

		<description>Isn&#039;t it odd that McCain could put the entire thing to rest by saying the truth ?

Look, I&#039;m a politician and am running so that I can get elected.  I like getting votes as does any other politician.

This naturally leads to your asking me about my opinion on the Catholic Church, civil unions of homosexuals...

My opinion is, straight talk:
a)............
b).............
c)..........</description>

		<description>Obama is now giving a speech in Oregon. He once again included gay people in his list of Americans who seek the same things for themselves and the country. You won&#039;t hear McCain or Clinton include that group. OBAMA 08!</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;StratRat Says:

John McCain will be trounced in the November elections. He may be smiling and strutting now, but once Obama has the dem side locked up - it will be brutal for McCain.&lt;/em&gt;

I was pleased and surprised to see a significant article in the morning paper about McCain and the land swap that made a ton of money for one of his supporters--and didn&#039;t bury the article in the back pages.</description>

		<description>John McCain will be trounced in the November elections. He may be smiling and strutting now, but once Obama has the dem side locked up - it will be brutal for McCain. His lies, his lobbyist connections, his tight assed wife, his association with religious bigots, his flip flops, etc...Obamas campaign will take each issue and wrap it around McCain&#039;s neck. McCain would do well to just drop out now. Save us (and his family) all the trouble.</description>

		<description>McCain is starting to remind me of Charles Durning&#039;s character in &quot;The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas&quot; -- remember this?

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don&#039;t- 
I&#039;ve come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step, 
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

McCain will do whatever tapdancing is necessary to avoid committing himself to either supporting or repudiating Hagee&#039;s comments about gays.  Even when he is asked about it, he always answers by repudiating Hagee&#039;s anti-Catholic comments only.

It&#039;s just called &quot;Doin&#039; the McCain&quot;.</description>

		<description>handout Says
May 9th, 2008 at 11:57 am
Hamas Endorses Obama.So does that mean Obama believes everything they believe??
____________________________________________

I realize this troll has already been banned, but his point is one that is frequently brought up by the wingnuts (which pretty much shows how pathetic their arguments have become).

The fundamental difference between Hamas&#039; &quot;endorsement&quot; of Obama and Hagee&#039;s endorsement of McCain is that McCain actively sought Hagee&#039;s endorsement and enthusiastically accepts it.  The same can&#039;t be said for Obama and Hamas.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Why would McCain have to explain what &quot;Some crazy pastor&quot; said?  It&#039;s not like McCain sought his endorsement or anything.  Oh, he did ask for and receive Paster Hagee&#039;s endorsement.  Well, he didn&#039;t mean to ask for his endorsement, or he didn&#039;t mean to accept it.  I mean the media is blowing this thing out of proportion.  Seriously:  The media is in bed with McCain on this guy and the Rev. Pasley.  Apparently there is a double standard in the media.  It goes:  Attack Obama over his pastor&#039;s stupid statements, but protect John McCain at all cost.  I don&#039;t personally think the media should have blown Rev Wright comments up, after all Obama didn&#039;t say any of it.  If Catholic politicians  were held accountable for the Priest Sex abuse and cover up by Bishops, there wouldn&#039;t be any Catholic politians left.  Why the triple standard?&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

&lt;b&gt;1. Do you agree with Pastor John Hagee that war with Iran is the fulfillment of biblical prophecy?&lt;/b&gt;
In February, you shared a stage with Pastor John Hagee and said you were &quot;very proud&quot; to have his endorsement.

Do you join Pastor Hagee in believing the United States must attack Iran to fulfill the biblical prophecy of Armageddon in Israel in which 144,000 Jews will be converted to Christianity and the rest killed? Is that why you joked about &quot;bomb bomb Iran?&quot; If not, why will you not renounce the support of Hagee and Parsley?&lt;/i&gt;</description>

Teen Questions McCain at Townhall Meeting.

Yesterday at Oakland University, Rochester, Michigan. a 14 year old girl with a message on her t-shirt standing behind McCain on the podium. When others see her shirt, the woman next to Halley tries to block her out of sight with her own body and then a sign.  McCain then calls on the teen for a question. The McCain supporter then sits down looking dejected.  Hilarious. 

A MUST SEE.

Go to www.myfoxdetroit.com and enter search site for John McCain Oakland University.

Kudos to 14 year old Halley.</description>

<p>Yesterday at Oakland University, Rochester, Michigan. a 14 year old girl with a message on her t-shirt standing behind McCain on the podium. When others see her shirt, the woman next to Halley tries to block her out of sight with her own body and then a sign.  McCain then calls on the teen for a question. The McCain supporter then sits down looking dejected.  Hilarious. </p>
<p>A MUST SEE.</p>
<p>Go to <a href="http://www.myfoxdetroit.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.myfoxdetroit.com</a> and enter search site for John McCain Oakland University.</p>
<p>Kudos to 14 year old Halley.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=4952926', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>Paul W - Hagee&#039;s worse than just a bigot. He fervently believes the Rapture is immanent in the Middle East and apparently that it will take John-Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran-McCain to further it along. Naturally, our horse&#039;s @ss of a media obsesses over the fundamentally powerless Rev. Wright while ignoring McCain&#039;s association with a dangerous whackjob who can&#039;t wait for World War 111. The fact that there are black preachers and congregants who don&#039;t worship at the altar of blind, see no evil patriotism is just a tad less scary than the fact that millions of whites agree with Hagee and that McCain feels the need to make them his allies.</description>

		<description>McCain&#039;s response makes perfect sense. He needs Catholics to vote for him but he knows the gays won&#039;t. So why bother repudiating remarks about gays, no matter how insane they may be?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;handout Says:

I’ve never been in Pastor Hagee’s church

Obama went to rev Jeremiah Wright’s church for 20 years!!!!

Hamas Endorses Obama.So does that mean Obama believes everything they believe??
May 9th, 2008 at 11:57 am&lt;/em&gt;

This is no longer your country, troll. You no longer chart the path, as progressivism is rightly taking over. President Obama, once he&#039;s sworn in, will make that official.

Take your shitty trivialities elsewhere, white trash.</description>
