Ok, now I'm mad at McCain

Posted on by pctech

I was just listening to Foxnews. They had a short blurp from McCain talking about the vote yesterday to bailout the financial crisis. He said, and I quote, "Yesterday the world looked to Washington for leadership, and Congress let them down."



TOPICS:

KEYWORDS:

Call me ignorant, call me naive, but didn't Congress do exactly what McCain accused them of not doing? The GOP DID provide leadership in helping to strike down this bloated piece of legislation and thereby send a signal that Washington WON'T bail out the crooks that perpetrating this crime upon us? I'm getting tired of, what appears to be, McCain continuing to shoot himself in the foot in what could be the most important election to date. What do you all think? Am I getting upset for a reason or am I just not looking at this mess correctly? I really need some help with this issue.

McCain is the worst part of his campaign.

Rush said he would destroy the party. Rush was right. THAT is disgusting. What does he want us to do? March right over the cliff with him?



To: pctech

The last time he used that “Unpopular but necessary legislation” line was during the amnesty debate. Maybe he’s learning disabled.

gone. There are no words to adequately express my profound disappointment with McCain right now. No I agree with you completely. All the renewed enthusiasm I had for this election after the Palin announcement is. There are no words to adequately express my profound disappointment with McCain right now. I guess this country deserves to suffer through 4 years of Obama.



To: pctech

Blah, blah, blah. More whiney vanity posts. You will be impressed by McCain by the time the election is held.



To: pctech

He could have positioned himself well by stating that the DEM leadership let down the country. Instead, this appears to also be a shot at the GOP leadership.



To: screaminsunshine

The Party has lost its way under Bush. McCain will finish it unless Palin can somehow save it. I’m not optimistic.

Put him on mute and vote for him anyway- if he gets elected at least we can listen to Sarah for the next 4 years. Or just imagine an Obama family Christmas at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.... and watching Michelle Obama’s head explode from having to be nice to all those evil white rich people...

Not sure we want a congress with a nine percent approval rating passing anything. McCain is a republican, congress in run by democrats, he cannot be seen supporting them today. Let sanfranan stew as opposed to the msm saying McCain was supporting a dem congress solution to solve a problem.



To: djsherin

Damn if he isn’t hard to defend! Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk.

I am so disgusted with this man. He never took the initiative during the debate to really challenge Obama, and now he's making statements like this. It's really frustrating to see and hear him do this to the GOP. I'm honestly looking at the real possibility that Obama wins the election and in two years the Rats suffer another GOP take over in the House and Senate. This scenario is jus so sickening but I'm to see that it could happen.



To: screaminsunshine

Over the cliff with all flags flying.

Impressed with McCain?

Bush has already destroyed the party.



To: pctech

LOL look to Washington for LEADERSHIP? He was obviously joking...well I hope so...



To: cripplecreek

Yep. We are stuck with him I guess. He knows we will never vote for a crat.



To: pgkdan

But it's not too late to fix it. The House GOP is providing conservative leadership and we should continue to support them. Write, call, fax and email the McCain campaign and let them know how you feel. Don't just cross your arms and pout!



To: pgkdan

True. And we can’t get a third party without giving up to the crats.
