McNasty's Straight Talk Runs into A Big Curve





Seems the "straight talk express" has a problem staying on the road for "my friend", John McCain. Wait a damn minute! He's not my friend and where does he get off saying that all the time.
Also seems Johnny likes us to believe he knows the life of the "real Joe the Plumber" not the one making 1/4 mill a year. John McCain has lived a life of privilige since birth and has a long history of self centered behavior. His POW act gets old as he fails to either be present to vote for veterans' benefits or votes against increasing them. The non-political Iraq Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) rated him with a "D" grade on his support of veterans. They gave Obama a "B" grade. And he isn't a war hero!
In 1999 McCain made statements about abortion that indicated he didn't want to reverse Roe vs Wade because it would mean a lot of unnecessary and unsafe operations for women. Once confronted by those statements he tried to parse his statements into a different context. Sort of like his remarks about the economy being fundamentally sound. When a few days later AIG and others faced collapse he decided he was talking about the American worker being fundamentally sound. Guess again, John. We're losing our jobs or being forced into poor paying jobs that don't support our families. How sound is that?
The McCain train has asked who Obama is but we should ask who John is today. Is he the nasty bastard that almost attacked a wheelchair bound mother wanting his support for a MIA report from North Vietnam? John McCain repetitively nixed release of such a report leaving MIA families fuming.
Is John the loving husband of Cindy or the cold SOB who ditched his first wife who was disfigured in a car accident while John was a POW? McCain chased the rich second wife all over the country while still married. His behavior was so vile even Ronnie Reagan and Nancy didn't want anything to do with him.
Tonight, McNasty had the audacity to portray himself as a "victim" of smear tactics by civil rights icon, John Lewis. Lewis stated McCain and Palin were allowing the same type of political enviornment to happen as George Wallace did back in his segregationist days. Well we have to remember John did oppose the MLK holiday and has repeatedly attempted to overthrow affirmative action. And if he doesn't understand what John Lewis was talking about he should view the videos of those beloved supporters of his entering the arenas for rallies. They accuse Obama of being an Arab, a terrorist and other garbage. One has a stuffed monkey with an Obama sticker as a hat and says to the video team..."this is "little Osama". Don't believe it's any coincidence these frothing racists are all white, some wearing those military hats ol' John talked about and all headed to a McCain/Palin rally.
At least Obama didn't completely throw Lewis under his bus but he continues to fail the test of calling racism what it is for fear of alienating white voters. When the hell will the subject of racism be addressed, again? The next time a city is burning or a riot takes place?
The winner of the debate on Wed the 15th had to be the rich plumber who will have his 15 min of fame. Someday, we'll probably discover old Joe was planted by Karl Rove to attempt embarassing Obama. Nah, Karl wouldn't do that...would he??
