McCain: I routinely turn to Palin for foreign policy advice.
McCain: I routinely turn to Palin for foreign policy advice.
In an interview this morning with NPR, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said that he has often turned to Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) for foreign policy advice:
NPR: Given what you’ve said Senator, is there an occasion where you could imagine turning to Governor Palin for advice in a foreign policy crisis.
MCCAIN: I’ve turned to her advice many times in the past, I can’t imagine turning to Senator Obama or Senator Biden because they’ve been wrong. They were wrong about Iraq, wrong about Russia –
NPR: But would you turn to Governor Palin?
MCCAIN: I certainly wouldn’t turn to them, and I’ve already turned to Governor Palin particularly on energy issues and I’ve appreciated her background and knowledge on that and many other issues.
According to the McCain campaign, Palin’s foreign policy experience that the senator is relying upon includes: 1) the fact that Alaska is near Russia, and 2) she allegedly “knows more about energy than probably anyone else in the United States of America.” In the NPR interview, McCain talked about Palin’s proximity to Russia, stating that it was important because “they have had certain relationships.” (They haven’t.)

No wonder his campaign is in disaster mode.
October 1st, 2008 at 11:53 amJeez I can’t wait to rush out and vote for this out of touch old man and his LIC for ice president If he is turning to here good luck chuck
October 1st, 2008 at 11:53 am” I’ve turned to her advice many times in the past,…”
Well, you’ve known her for about 6 weeks, so I can see how you’ve turn to her many time in the past for advise..
October 1st, 2008 at 11:53 amHe can’t turn to Obama who was right about Iraq, right about the economy, etc. but he turns to “I can see Russia” Palin for her vast fund of knowledge.
If Palin (predictably) does poorly in the VP debate, McCain has just provided a goldmine of a TV commercial for Obama – not to mention SNL.
October 1st, 2008 at 11:54 amCan I add, can’t-name-a-SCOTUS-decision (and what-does-a-VP-do) Palin as the fund of knowledge ?
October 1st, 2008 at 11:56 amI haven’t laughed so hard since Eric Cantor waved the parchment and ink that caused Republicans to vote against America’s interest.
October 1st, 2008 at 11:57 am“If you don’t answer the question old man we’re going to have to gag you.”
October 1st, 2008 at 11:58 am“What question?”
“Gag him”
Yes, I can envision it:
“I’ve turned to her many times in the past, when a foreign body fell off my fork and landed in my lap.”
“Sarah, would you please remove it. And pay no attention to the open zipper. I’m a 72 year old man and forgetful.”
October 1st, 2008 at 11:59 amMcCain: I routinely turn to Palin for foreign policy advice.

This is just sickening, what a crock of sh!t, there is no way this one foot in the grave cancer ridden phuck has asked Brainless Barbi about foreign policy.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:00 pmAnother old turd, Fred Thompson is out today in Townhall, praising Palin’s ‘political courage’.
Would that be akin to the lamb’s courage as it baaaaas it’s way to the slaughterhouse?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:00 pmWell, obviously, Sarah owns one of those Magic Eightballs.
Yeah, that’s it.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:01 pmLike I’ve said before, you just can’t make this shit up! Go McCain! Just keep talking. And Lungman, I don’t think its even been 6 weeks!
October 1st, 2008 at 12:01 pmOMFG! Grampy needs his meds adjusted again!
Just what advice did he seek from Palin? The Georgia/Russia sitation was her forte because, ya know, Russia is just a small maritime border’s stone’s throw away from a sorta shared airspace with the great state of Alaska over which she is the leader of, also?
Or Palin’s stance on Pakistan? Did Palin advise McStain to avoid all future talks with Spain until they were sure Spain wasn’t in Latin America? Or did Palin let McStain in on the little known fact that Hugo Chavez is a Middle Eastern leader?
It would be so funny if it wasn’t so scary…
PEACE
October 1st, 2008 at 12:01 pmCan Ms Palin differentiate SCOTUS from the man sack she has for a husband?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:01 pmIt will be interesting to see, after Obama wins, how long Palin remains in the tabloid headlines – maybe 4 to 6 months of stories about the daughter and the shotgun wedding ending in divorce with accusations of spousal abuse, etc.. Anybody have any more ideas for Enquirer headlines featuring the Palin family in the post-election future?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:02 pmmccain + palin are incredible at not answering questions. and when journalists ask follow-ups, they become hostile, and then proceed to blame the Media as a whole.
that’s a serious problem. it’s almost a mental or psychological problem. all americans should be very concerned about giving power to people with mental or psychological problems.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:02 pmExample # 1:
McCain: “What’s with this Egg McMuffin?! They say it’s got bacon on it but all I see is this shitty piece of salty ham!”
Palin: “Oh Johnny don’t you know that that’s Canadian Bacon?”
McCain: “”Canadian Bacon”? How do those f#ckin’ Kanooks get off calling this rubbery shit bacon? What the hell do they call a Big Mac?”
Palin: “Is this going to be on the test?”
October 1st, 2008 at 12:03 pmSo that’s why McIIIrd won’t talk to the president of Spain?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:03 pmPalin can’t see Spain from her front porch?
MCcain is scarier than Bush in 2000 and 2004 combined.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:04 pmNow see this is why some senior’s are tagged with a dementia label….Personely I think mcnut;s played marble’s as a kid and lost them all way back then..
It’s a whole lot crazy to make a statement about consulting a new fast friend with long ago implication’s but then he has little short term memory….Maybe he is bypolar…LOL…Blessings

OK, this explains a lot.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:11 pmI suppose it would be too much to ask for NPR to even be as professional as Katie Couric and ask, “can you name a specific instance, Senator, when you asked Governor Palin for her foreign policy advice”?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:11 pm” I’ve turned to her advice many times in the past,…”

October 1st, 2008 at 12:11 pmHe has completely lost it. Obama and Biden are just “wrong”, no reasons.
No wonder Obama is ahead now in Ohio, Penn and Florida.

October 1st, 2008 at 12:14 pmMcDoofus is counting on those hard-core 25%ers that will vote for him even if he dances naked (ewwwwwww) in the street. Then he’s also counting on the idiots that will vote for him because his skin is lighter than Obama’s. And he’s counting on the votes from the ‘Palin’s a babe’ crowd. So with all those American cretins out there eligible to vote he could get close enough to have the electronic voting results skewed in his favor by the neocon hackers waiting to do their dirty work.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:15 pmThough I know many are gleeful about the upcoming VP debate, I’m going to be watching with baited breath (when I’m not howling with laughter) because Biden is going to have to fight the overwhelming urge to say “Are you effing kidding me?” every time Palin is done ‘answering’ a question.

October 1st, 2008 at 12:22 pmNotice to all Americans
Pack a bag with all your personal and important papers, get your passport ready and quick cash just in case you have to leave quickly. If McCain/Palin steal the election like Bush/Cheney did it’s all over. Sarah aka Chrissy Snow will led the USA to her down fall. McCain will not remember who and why it happen. If any American believes a Leader can know Foreign Policy by living next to a country it’s all over for us. Russia will truly be able to walk in with one shot being fired. This election will show if Americans have learned any lessons of the pass 8 years.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:22 pmSometimes I wonder if Jesus would recognize some of the things that people are saying in his name to justify the unjustifiable?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:23 pmThis certainly would explain the incoherence of McCain’s foreign policy. I thought he was just a senile old coot with an anger management issue. Turns out he takes foreign policy advice only from people who didn’t have a passport until last year.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:23 pmRaptureReady says: WTF?!
October 1st, 2008 at 12:24 pmNot that I agree that your imaginary pixie in the sky is following and affecting US politics but just in case you didn’t know it, Senator Obama is a Christian.

You mean like when jesus talks to Dubya? How has that worked out for all of us, D?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:27 pmYou Democrats need to stop overly critcizing her. She is UNABLE TO learn about our government, but knowledge about government is not a requirement in her case because she is saved , which means that Jesus gives her instructions via prophetic word or the bible.
HOLY SHIT, ANOTHER BUSH
Gov. Palin has the best understudy, who is Jesus.
LET’S JUST HOPE JEEZUS DOESN’T GET CALLED ON TO FILL IN WHEN PALIN FALLS FLAT ON HER FACE IN THE FIRST SCENE OF THE FIRST ACT.
Jesus was a carpenter who was criticized by many and considered as an intellectual by numerous people. Look at what he has done. He healed the sick the and raised the dead. He created miracles.
So says the book written hundreds of years after his appearance…
How can you fault Gov. Palin when she has a flawless God like Jesus leading her,
Um, with a rational appraisal of her appaling lack of knowledge about all things governental?
unlike Hussein who worships idols (Muslim).
Complete and utter bullshit.
Your party will be suprised during the debate tomorrow.
Yes, if we haven’t wet ourselves laughing.
Jesus will reveal himself by allowing Gov. Palin to unequivocally defeat Biden.
Just like president elect Huckster?

Jesus, as a Palestinian not born in the United States, is not Constitutionally eligible to be third in line for the Presidency.
Also, the Bible is not, has never been, and never will be the basis of our system of government. It says so quite clearly in the Constitution.

Are you saying a Christian is really a Muslim? That means you are one, too. BOOOOO!!!!!!
October 1st, 2008 at 12:33 pmCNN sent a reporter to Diomede, the Alaskan village that is in sight of Russian-administered Big Diomede Island in the Bering Strait. Turns out, Sarah Palin has never visited there, not has any Alaska governor.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:34 pmIsn’t there something in the Bible about “Bearing false witness”…?
I thought there was. I could be wrong.

October 1st, 2008 at 12:35 pmPalin’s foreign negotiations limited to Canada
By MARTHA MENDOZA, AP National Writer
Wed Oct 1, 3:17 AM ET
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who touts her state’s proximity to Russia as part of her foreign policy experience, has not met with Russian leaders or delegations, negotiated any Russian issues or visited the country, according to an Associated Press review of records from the governor’s office.
This is pure gold, read the article, specially the declarations of the russian representatives…
October 1st, 2008 at 12:37 pmI think it’s time to flag Daryll/RuptureReady out of his new name, for that antichrist reference and his muslim reference.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:38 pmHe is definitely over the line with his lies.
No, Daryll, it makes YOU wonder, because your head not really screwed on tight.
By teh way, what sort of “preconditions” would you demand? Tighty-righties always use that phrase “without preconditions” as if it were a legal disclaimer that a drug company has to include. What does it mean, exactly?

October 1st, 2008 at 12:42 pmDaryll, if you can refrain from staying in character, I have a serious question for you.
The major reason you’re voting for McCain/Palin is because of the abortion issue, is it not?
I know the answer is yes.
Now, I would really like to know why you (and others like you) feel so inclined to follow the anti-abortion leaders when, in essence, abortions never get banned.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:42 pmDon’t you feel betrayed that your hero, Bush, pimped your vote twice, and yet abortions are still easily available here in the US.
Just curious.
And if you have to stay in character to reply, then just never the fck mind!
A hippie surfer dude FROM SoCal… sheesh, and I thought I had had enough coffee already…
October 1st, 2008 at 12:43 pmIf his picking her as his running mate didn’t disqualify him enough already, turning to her for advice certainly should.

October 1st, 2008 at 12:45 pmOkay, as much fun as it is to yank Daryll’s chain, I’d like to relate this initial comment of our friend to the topic of the thread, which is: McCain says he has sought his running mate’s foreign policy advice “many times in the past”.
Daryll seems to suggest that Sarah Palin doesn’t have much foreign policy expertise, but that it doesn’t matter.
So… how does Daryll feel about his presidential candidate seeking the counsel of someone who has no expertise in a particular field?
October 1st, 2008 at 12:45 pmSorry, forgot to turn off the italics for my post.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:45 pmDRxJ,
Don’t hold your breath getting a straight answer out of D. He has many demons, abortion being one as is homophobia. He was quite disappointed when Larry Craig didn’t make it to the RNC. He wanted to discuss Larry’s stance on many issues. Ruined D’s whole week.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:46 pmAnnie, put it on his tab.
Personally, I learned long ago to power down my Crap-O-Meter when Daryll shows up. It’s just not built to withstand that kind of strain.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:46 pmralph,
As long as she is “saved”, it doesn’t matter to the religious right if she has experience.
Dear gawd, I am so glad that I’m a Christian with a brain!!!
And dear Parodyll, should you not vote for Obama, especially since you believe he is the anti-christ? I mean, you can’t be Rapture Ready if Armageddon isn’t approaching.
There goes Parodyll’s head, exploding again.

Well, my gf heard that demand for Palin look-alikes has skyrocketed… for the porn industry. Some are getting 12-13 mil. just for looking like her.
Maybe she will finally find her true calling.
“Palin does Washington”
(sorry, really sorry)
October 1st, 2008 at 12:57 pmThe very CONCEPT of seeking Palin’s advice on foreign affairs is enough to scare the crap out of me….
October 1st, 2008 at 12:58 pm“She seeks advice from Jesus”
No she doesn’t.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:59 pmI can see Canada from across the Detroit River does that make me a foreign policy expert? No,she is as qualified as I am on these issues and Mcwars says he confides in her is what we will get if McPalin wins in November, boy will we be in trouble.We will never get out of Iraq or Afgahnistan and we will end up in Iran and russia before long.These two would make Bush and Cheney look like cupcakes…….
October 1st, 2008 at 12:59 pmMCCAIN: I’ve turned to her for advice many times in the past…
A competent journalist would have followed up on such a brazen lie by asking – “Senator McCain – can you provide one example where you sought out Gov. Palin’s advice on a United States Foreign policy issue? .. What was that issue and what was Gov. Palin’s advice and to what extent did it influence your final decision on that specific policy issue?”
Just saying . . .
October 1st, 2008 at 12:59 pmIt is as simple as this:
McCain-Palin are LIARS, HYPOCRITES and FRAUDS.
October 1st, 2008 at 12:59 pmjimmy jones got his advice from jesus too.
There are so many religious whacko’s out there that claim to get their advice from jesus that they fight among themselves over who is right……how can that be?

____________________________________________________
Congratulations, Daryll — this was probably your best effort yet, and well worth waiting for. Let me address your points one by one:
“You Democrats need to stop overly critcizing her.”
– Overly? I thought we had been showing remarkable restraint. She’s been looking like a fool pretty much on her own, without our help.
“She is quickly learning about our government…”
– And we recommend that anyone wishing to learn about our government run for the second highest office in the land. Nothing like on-the-job training…
“…but knowledge about government is not a requirement in her case because she is saved…”
– So all the talk from Obama’s critics about experience has been moot? All he has to be is saved? Since he’s a Christian, I believe then he has met all the qualifications for higher office, according to you.
“…which means that Jesus gives her instructions via prophetic word or the bible.”
– Uh, this would be the same method of communication where you received word about “president-elect” Huckabee?
“Gov. Palin has the best understudy, who is Jesus.”
– Jesus is Palin’s understudy? This means that if McCain is elected and if Palin cannot perform her duties that Jesus becomes Vice President? How is He going to get around that “natural-born citizen” requirement?
“Jesus was a carpenter who was criticized by many and considered as an intellectual by numerous people.”
– No argument here, although I doubt it was his carpentry that the Pharisees had issue with.
“Look at what he has done.”
– Uh, those of us who consider Jesus divine prefer to capitalize all pronouns pertaining to Him. I would think you would, too.
“He healed the sick the and raised the dead. He created miracles.”
– No argument here on this, either. But what’s your point? Are you suggesting this should be a required qualification for higher office?
“How can you fault Gov. Palin when she has a flawless God like Jesus leading her…”
– The same way we criticize anybody who perverts the Word of God to their own ends. God is an excellent leader, but that doesn’t mean people are great followers.
“…unlike Hussein who worships idols (Muslim).”
– Two incorrect points on your part here. First, Obama (and his name is Barack Obama — if you’re going to call him Hussein, you should call McCain “Sidney” and Palin “Louise”) is not Muslim, he is Christian. Second, Muslims worship the God of Abraham, same as Christians do. They do not worship idols.
“Your party will be suprised during the debate tomorrow.”
– Not half as surprised as yours will be.
“Jesus will reveal himself by allowing Gov. Palin to unequivocally defeat Biden.”
– Again, if you wish to show reverence to Jesus, you should say “Himself”, not “himself”. But if Jesus DOES reveal Himself, it should perk up the ratings somewhat.
“God said that we can do all things through him, which strengthens us.”
– No argument here, either (except that “him” should be capitalized). Except that even God doesn’t intend that we should all go jump off cliffs or stand in front of oncoming trains in His name and count on survival. Thou shalt not tempt God — have you heard?
“We our more than conquerors through Jesus.”
– I think you mean “we are”, not “we our”. And when we truly need to be conquerors, this is true. But what’s your point?
“God is watching over Gov. Palin. She cannot and will not fail.”
– Then God needs to pay more attention. If He is truly guiding Palin on this holy quest, I doubt He would have allowed her to give such a disastrous performance in her interviews with Katie Couric.
But hey — thanks for the laughs! It’s good to see you’re performing back up to par!
October 1st, 2008 at 1:01 pmMcCain doesnt care what Palin has to say. He only picked her to win the election
October 1st, 2008 at 1:01 pmIf he does God help us all!
October 1st, 2008 at 1:01 pmShe is considered an expert because Jesus is the most intelligent all being God. She seeks advice from Jesus, not man or books.
But all you know about jesus came in a book!?!?!

Okay, as much fun as it is to yank Daryll’s chain, I’d like to relate this initial comment of our friend to the topic of the thread, which is: McCain says he has sought his running mate’s foreign policy advice “many times in the past”.
Daryll seems to suggest that Sarah Palin doesn’t have much foreign policy expertise, but that it doesn’t matter.
So… how does Daryll feel about his presidential candidate seeking the counsel of someone who has no expertise in a particular field?
__________________________________________________________
I would think Daryll would suggest McCain shouldn’t ask Palin for advice, he should ask Jesus directly. Wouldn’t that be more efficient?
Or is Daryll suggesting that Palin has a direct line to the Jesusphone and McCain does not?
October 1st, 2008 at 1:07 pmDaryll, 12:56 pm:
She seeks advice from Jesus, not man or books.
Daryll, 34 minutes earlier:
she is saved , which means that Jesus gives her instructions via prophetic word or the bible.
Um… Isn’t the Bible “a book”?

When Palin was hard-pressed to come up with the names of any material she reads when Katie asked her about it, why in the world didn’t she mention the Bible, if this is her sole written source of guidance?
October 1st, 2008 at 1:12 pmLeftside Annie and all, I have some spare frammels for your Crap-O-Meters, just in case you left them on during Darlyy’s blatherant.
I have some Crapplugs as well, so you can leave it on, without damaging it tomorrow night. Let me know.

No art. Jesus is real and, daily, he leads Gov. Palin. The only way this team can lose the campaign if satanist, like Democrats, begin voting for fake hope and change instead of Godly people.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
People like you arent Godly. Just stupid. That is not the same thing. YOUR ignorance doesnt define reality. Not for the American people and not for God. You are a disgusting little weasel who thinks you can speak for God. The hubris of that is breathtaking. Lets break it down for someone of even YOUR astonishing stupidity level. YOU are a moron. YOU dont know the mind of God. YOU dont know ANYTHING some Limborg screechmonkey didnt tell you to know. YOU are stupid. The people with actual brains can figure this stuff out for themselves. YOU are too ignorant to add anything to the discussion here. YOU however are NOT the arbiter of what is religous or Godly you are just stupid
October 1st, 2008 at 1:20 pmEven though he sometimes sidetracks the threads, Daryll does bring a lot of laughs to a sometimes dull day.

Are you really claiming Palin is the only Christian in the race? You are astonishingly stupid. Do you realize you have never made a post that any rational person would see as coherent. Have never once made a cogent argument? Do you understand how stupid and worthless your posts are? Do you realize how Un-Christian your judgements and well abject stupidity appear? You are not acting like a good Christian. You are acting like an ignorant hivemind shill without the slightest clue what you are talking about. Your stupidity is pitiful.
October 1st, 2008 at 1:23 pmStop trying to use “logic”. Things that “make sense” are clearly of Satanic origin!
I was raised Southern Baptist and know this train of “thought” all too well. They think it’s a “trick” when it’s simply common sense seeping in. The thing is, God gave us a brain and are therefore allowed to use it from time to time.
October 1st, 2008 at 1:24 pmIT IS NOT WISE TO READ ABOUT PALIN/MCCAIN WHILST DRINKING ANY CARBONATED BEVERAGE – OR ANY BEVERAGE AT ALL, FOR THAT MATTER!!!

RaptureReady:
You Democrats need to stop overly critcizing her.
Democrats like Pat Buchanan, Carly Fiorina and Chuck Hagel??
She is quickly learning about our government….
About 34 years after she was supposed to learn about it in school.
…but knowledge about government is not a requirement in her case because she is saved, which means that Jesus gives her instructions via prophetic word or the bible.
Would that be Prophecies 2:14? “And lo, Sarah will give birth to a child whose span will be as Methuselah’s, minus about 930 years, and being from Al-Aska she will name him Trig, but she will suckle him not for she will be busy and instead give him to her 7- year old daughter Piper,for practice, for Piper will assuredly be knocked up as soon as she is able.”
Gov. Palin has the best understudy, who is Jesus. Jesus was a carpenter
Jesus was a carpenter’s son. Joseph was the carpenter. But of course you wouldn’t know that because you don’t actually read the bible, you just imagine what it really says.
Hey wait a sec… did you just call Jesus Palin’s understudy? REALLY?!
..,who was criticized by many and considered as an intellectual by numerous people.
Just like the Republicans criticized Kerry and Gore and now criticize Obama. There’s a log in your eye and you are throwing stones
Look at what he has done. He healed the sick the and raised the dead.
And since then there’s been about 3 billion people he hasn’t healed or raised from the dead. Maybe he still bears a grudge for being nailed to stick and left to rot.
He created miracles.
Like driving a herd of pigs off a cliff and thereby ruining the livelihood of a bunch of pig farmers?
How can you fault Gov. Palin when she has a flawless God like Jesus leading her, unlike Hussein who worships idols (Muslim).
First of all Obama is a Christian (and a better one than you clearly), second ‘Muslim’ isn’t an idol, third it’s you who is worshiping an idol by praying in front of a cross. There is no symbol or idol in the Muslim religion for Allah or indeed his prophet Mohammed that is prayed-to.
Your party will be suprised during the debate tomorrow.
Surprised? Indeed everyone coming to my VP debate party will be surprised by my fabulous vol-au-vents and cheese straws!
Jesus will reveal himself by allowing Gov. Palin to unequivocally defeat Biden.
That’s not exactly a reveal by most people’s standards but lo I shall let that pass. So by what method will Plain defeat Biden? Smiting with an ass’s jawbone? A slingshot rock to the forehead? Killing Joe’s firstborn, seizing his lands and possessions and taking his wife as a slave? I can hardly wait!
God said that we can do all things through him, which strengthens us.
Like watching television or taking a crap?.
We our more than conquerors through Jesus. God is watching over Gov. Palin. She cannot and will not fail.
But what if she does fail to win the debate?
Not to worry, if Palin loses the debate despite your affirmation and you thus find your adamant faith tested the answer to your quandary is in the Bible (maybe now you’ll actually read it):
Get ready to sacrifice your own son and offer up a barbecue to God (but no corn on the cob, potato salad or shrimp—God hates veggies (as Cain discovered, much to his chagrin) and shellfish.

October 1st, 2008 at 1:51 pmWHY-O-WHY hasn’t ANY Media come straight out and called him a fool and her a moron? This is mind boggling…
Are the public that stupid?
AND why on earth shouldn’t Biden just come in tonmorrow – wipe up the floor with this bozo and leave? Ten minues – tops. Folks make this debate sound like a local PTA pillow fight contest….

*shaking head*
October 1st, 2008 at 2:04 pmCindy McCain better get a grip on her philandering husband. Obviously he has the hots for Sarah and has let the heat of his d*ck melt his brain. Maybe Cindy should just let lobbyist girl-toy Vickie Iseman back in the country for Johnny to play with because at least she can give him slightly more informed advices than Baby-Maker Palin can.

October 1st, 2008 at 4:20 pmJohn McCain has turned himself into the biggest liar in the political world. And to think that he would subject this country to his constant wavering on issues and war mongering along with a vice presidential candidate who is completely clueless about the history of this country, the Supreme Court, and other countries(and seemingly happy about it)but still believes she has a right to be second in command of this country…..McCain and Palin are the scariest set of idiots to ever try for the highest offices in the land. Please vote for Obama and Biden.
October 1st, 2008 at 5:32 pmPeace.
LIE
October 1st, 2008 at 5:37 pmSo where does this pathological need to tell untruths come from? I seriously doubt he could tell you the day of the week without lying. I never took advanced psych classes, but my fifty cents says it comes from being the Admiral’s screwup of a kid. To be wrong was to be punished/ignored/rebuked, whatever. So his answers are ALways what he thinks is right [what Daddy wants to hear] without a thought of what actually might be true.
October 1st, 2008 at 6:01 pmMcCain routinely asks Sarah Palin for foreign policy advice? Now there’s a scary thought. Have you noticed how McCain takes every opportunity to hug his Sarah and how uncomfortable she looks when he does? I think he’s thinking with something other than the head on his shoulders. How tempting it must be to have this pretty young thing smiling and hanging on his every word. How nice to be a mentor to a “fine young mind”. Gag!
October 1st, 2008 at 6:05 pmGod help us, if McCain is elected.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<,
You have got to be the most ignorant piece of mold on the brain retard on the entire planet. Why would YOU vote against one of Gods chidren, that is OBAMA, you must just be stupid beyond all belief. You calling Barak Obama by his middle name just outs you as a brainwashed hivemind moron without any capacity for independent thought. You tune into whichever bloviator does your thinking for you and regurgitate their sewage on this site because you KNOW you are too ignorant to actually contribute. You are, sad, pathetic and unbelievably ignorant. The Anti Christ???? How stupid can you POSSIBLY BE? Got any evidence Obama is a socialist? My your stupidity is incredible. Of COURSE you have no such evidence you are just WWAAAAAYYYYYY stupid.
October 1st, 2008 at 8:55 pmMCCAIN: I’ve turned to her advice many times in the past.
Wow, I guess “the past” to him means just the last few weeks. I mean, he didn’t even meet her until late August.
Doofus.
October 1st, 2008 at 9:30 pmReally John? You say you turn to Palin for advice on foreign policy and certainly not Joe Biden!?
Watch this clip. Palin is asked about Hamas and their victory in their democratic elections. And Palin just has no clue what either Hamas or Gaza is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5Y1oYThKts
As always she starts bullshitting away spouting meaningless nonsense about the importance of democracy seemingly supporting Hamas(!). But she says “those people who seek democracy” not the Palestinians. Ergo Palin doesnt know
who the hell shes talking about
And then proving beyond a shadow of a doubt she doesnt know what hte hell shes talking about she changes subject to the evil Ahmadinejad and his threats of Israel. Yes Ahmadinejad is the evil one. Not Hamas, responsible for the killings of hundreds of innocent Israeli civilians. But if Palin had any idea she wouldnt have come this close to saying she supports
Hamas.
Great VP choice John! And you say you turn to Palin for advice on foreign policy and certainly not Joe Biden!?
