Do you remember the politician that made the comment; "Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran."? Well I have always been discusted with that ignorance, but I guess at the time it hapened, I didnt know who John McCain was. He is a boor. He is worse than a boor, but for the sake of relating him to the article, he is a boor. The characteristics are there. He is clumsy in his words and also very ignorant. He thinks war is a joke and the lives of people who are not US citizens don't matter. It is scary that he could have been our president, he the man who chose Palin to be his vice president after only meeting her once. He also made the statement:
"Maybe that's a way of killing them." --responding to a report that $158 million in cigarettes have been shipped to Iran during Bush's presidency despite restrictions on U.S. exports to that country, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, July 8, 2008
And...
"Make it a hundred...That would be fine with me." -to a questioner who asked if he supported President Bush's vision for keeping U.S. troops in Iraq for 50 years.
And......
"It's not social issues I care about."
And............
"Did you hear the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die? When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, 'Where is that marvelous ape?'" --a joke McCain reportedly told during his first Senate race in 1986.
AND...................................
"No one has supported President Bush on Iraq more than I have."
That says it all! Right there! Why was there even an election?! Who wants that man in office?! He is obviously ethnocentric which is not doing the job a president should do by strengthening foreign relations. He once threatened Korea with extinction if they didnt allow inspection for nuclear missiles. This guy is just war crazy. Instead of trying to be diplomatic, a trait I thought was required of our leader, he just wants to blow shit up!
There are countless examples, and thats the worst truth of all. Thank you America for voting for Obama. The McCain campaign is most definitely a boor, a boor and so much more.
You have many strong points, I do not want you to think that I am a supporter of McCain. However I understand why he is war crazy. He was a POW during the Vietnam war and I think that kind of influenced his support for or against war. I do not agree with him or support him by any means.
ReplyDeleteI think that what he went through and his experiences may have hurt him and his ideals. Also maybe this information sheds some light on why he is such a crazy person.
It is interesting to see how many "put the foot in the mouth" moments Mccain has had in his lifetime. Like that ape joke... seriously? I don't even get it, let alone think it is funny. Thank god Obama won; it would have (i think) even worse than Bush if Mccain had made it to presidency.. and Sarah Palin.. well I don't even want to get into how much of a boor she is!
