John McCain is McBush and a Third Bush Term.
John McCain is a liar, devious and no maverick.
John McCain voted 90% with Bush.
John McCain is known in Washington to have a “volcanic” temper.
John McCain is for Wall Street/Lobbyists.
John McCain is out-of-touch, he said, our economy is strong. OMG

Sarah Palin? Inexperienced, doesn’t know the “Bush Doctrine”, doesn’t know what John McCain has done in his 26 years.

Sarah Palin is against all women’s rights.
Sarah Palin has No Foreign Affair Experience.

No McCain, No Palin…America deserves better.

Americans, let’s unite and elect Barack Obama for President.

Let’s change Washington and put Obama/Biden to shake things up and make our Government work for the “people”.

Pass on the good news…vote for Barack Obama.

A large segment of the American Hispanic community has historically shared conservative Republican values, even though today many of them vote Democrat. The Democratice party is about keeping the pwer in washington and local states. The democratic party teaches you how be dependent on Government. The is the way they keep there jobs…by promising you things you can do yourself. The more we count on government to solve our problems, the more we give up our own rights as the people. Remember my fellow latino’s…Government works for us. We are a country with a Government, not a Government with a country! Latino’s are hard working and proud. Lets not become a dependent race. Vote with your family Values!

The REAL McCain - Oi!
Under the guise of “campaign finance reform,” the McCain-Feingold act by Congress repealed large parts of the First Amendment, “Congress shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech.” A political party and its candidates should be free to talk about whatever they want!
McCain has undermined the Second Amendment by voting for gunlocks and gun-show background checks.
McCain opposed President Bush’s tax cuts in both 2001 and 2003.
McCain led the infamous “Gang of 14” that fought for an immigration-reform bill containing the much-maligned “amnesty” shortcut to citizenship.
McCain favors Congressional action to reduce global warming.
McCain once called Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell “agents of intolerance.”
McCain grew up Episcopalian, went to an Episcopalian high school andhas been listed as an Episcopalian in 15 years of authoritative directories such as the Almanac of American Politics and Congressional Quarterly’s Politics in America 2008. As recently as June 2007, he told a reporter from McClatchy News Service that he was an Episcopalian. Then, Campainging the heavily Baptist state in September 2007, McCain told a reporter “By the way, I’m not Episcopalian. I’m Baptist.” No baptism in the Baptist church but he’s a Baptist overnight anyway.
So much for his supposed number one strength - honesty!
McCain was one of the congressmen called the “Keating Five” who were investigated on ethics charges for going out of their way to help convicted racketeer Charles Keating. Keating was convicted of racketeering and fraud in both state and federal court after his Lincoln Savings & Loan collapsed, costing the taxpayers $3.4 billion. His original convictions were overturned on technicalities such as jurors hearing about his prior conviction and Judge Lance screwing up jury instructions, so he now faces new trials in both courts. McCain intervened on behalf of Charles Keating. Was it because Keating had given McCain more than $112,000 in contributions? Was it because Keating had giving McCain at least 9 trips on private airplanes and put him up in his luxurious retreat in the Bahamas? Was it because McCain’s wife and father-in-law had $350,000 invested in a Keating shopping center?
McCain sent birthday regards, and regrets for not attending the party, to the head of the New York Bonano crime family Joseph “Joe Bananas” who had retired to Arizona.
Ross Perot told Newsweek that at one point he took care of McCain’s family, including paying her hospital bills after his first wife was in a serious car accident. Carol was a beautiful slim model before McCain left for Vietnam. When he came home he found that the accident had left her 4 inches shorter and many pounds heavier. Perot said, “After he came home, he walked with a limp, she [Carol] walked with a limp. So he threw her over for a poster girl [Cindy] with big money from Arizona.” None of John’s three children attended the wedding. But Carol said, “the breakup of our marriage was not caused by my accident … I attribute it more to John turning forty and wanting to be twenty-five again.”
McCain partially defused a media feeding frenzy by acknowledging that his adultery broke up his first marriage. His second wife was a model 18 years younger than he. Her wealth as the daughter of a Budweiser beer distributor funded the launch of John’s political career. Her addictions to prescription narcotics and theft of hard drugs from a medical charity were embarrassments that may be part of why she stays out of the spotlight and why she didn’t want him to run for president.
“McCain was adamant about shutting down anything to do with recovering POWs” asserted Ross Perot to the media as he announced his support for Romney. “Other POWs won’t even sit at the same table with him,” Perot said.
Unless you’re willing to forsake your ideologies for the sake of winning, don’t vote for McCain just because he may have more supporters than Clinton. You may as well vote for Clinton. The fact that McCain’s political views are so much like Clinton’s is the reason Clinton-haters from the left are attracted to him. The media is giving him a pass now because they know that if McCain is nominated they can have a heyday skewering him on the skeletons in his closet!

I wonder when the news media will pick up on the fact that Henry Waxman’s SON is lobbying Capitol Hill?

Henry Waxman is the Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

Then again the news media might not pick up on that at all.

Michael,

This was a story reported by NBC, not ABC. In addition the point of the report was that Clinton had the opportunity, but as usual the asshole did not make a decision based on what was morally correct, rather he made a decision based purely on politics. Read the above quote where it states “Clinton was weakened by scandal, and there was no POLITICAL CONSESNSUS FOR BOLD ACTION”.

The reason I left some stuff out Michael is because it was a rather long story. I wanted the reader to get the point of the story without having to paste an entire story.

Whoa Calcon don’t pull a muscle with all of these gyrations you are doing here about Osama and Cliton.

How could Pakistan or Sudan have offered Osama up on a silver platter when he was in Afghanistan.

Way to cherry pick that article take out all of the stuff that contradicts your point.

Three paragraphs up from the paragraph you included about anonomous sources is this paragraph.

“In reality, getting bin Laden would have been extraordinarily difficult. He was a moving target deep inside Afghanistan. Most military operations would have been high-risk. What’s more, Clinton was weakened by scandal, and there was no political consensus for bold action, especially with an election weeks away”

That of course was the bogus Lewinsky scandal that Republicans were obsessed with as I pointed out.

Oh yeah ABC is really liberal the network that carries Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity’s radio shows are really liberal.

I mistakingly said it was released today. I was confused simply because of the date. I apologize, but the fact remains, that there is clear evidence that Bill Clinton missed an enormous opportunity to strike at Bin Laden and he did not for what appears toe political purposes.

[quote comment=”141726″]Lets clear up some myths Calcon is spreading thanks to the right wing hit job ABC put out that disney had to admit was fiction after the people who were there all said they were exagerations and pure lies.

Let’s be clear. ABC and Disney are about as liberal an organization you will find anywhere. This news was just released today:

By Lisa Myers
Senior investigative correspondent
NBC News
Updated: 4:40 p.m. PT March 17, 2004
As the 9/11 commission investigates what Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush might have done to prevent the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, one piece of evidence the commission will examine is a videotape secretly recorded by a CIA plane high above Afghanistan. The tape shows a man believed to Osama bin Laden walking at a known al-Qaida camp.

The question for the 9/11 commission: If the CIA was able to get that close to bin Laden before 9/11, why wasn’t he captured or killed? The videotape has remained secret until now.

In 1998, President Clinton announced, “We will use all the means at our disposal to bring those responsible to justice, no matter what or how long it takes.”

NBC News has obtained, exclusively, extraordinary secret video, shot by the U.S. government. It illustrates an enormous opportunity the Clinton administration had to kill or capture bin Laden. Critics call it a missed opportunity. The tape proves the Clinton administration was aggressively tracking al-Qaida a year before 9/11. But that also raises one enormous question: If the U.S. government had bin Laden and the camps in its sights in real time, why was no action taken against them?

NBC News contacted the three top Clinton national security officials. None would do an on-camera interview.

One Clinton Cabinet official said, looking back, the military should have been more involved, “We did a lot, but we did not see the gathering storm that was out there.”

Well boys and girls, I think that just about sums it up!!
