Ross Perot Slams McCain

Newsweek:

The phone rang and it was Ross Perot, who hasn't given an interview in years. Perot, who won 19 percent of the vote in the 1992 presidential election, making him one of the strongest third-party candidates in American history, got straight to the point.

"Remember what you wrote about John McCain in the March 13, 2000, NEWSWEEK?"

"Sure," I lied.

"When McCain called Perot 'nuttier than a fruitcake'?"

Watch John McCain closely. He's white-knuckling through the primaries, fighting the urge to turn into a big, green, raging Hulk. I sense that just below the surface McCain is an angry, volatile monster.

Yeah, I voted for Perot, he's been proven right on Nafta and lots of other things. He was the only one making any sense and addressing real issues during that election cycle. Both parties were pulling stupid, false issues in front of the American people talking to them like idiots saying Look, look don't mind about the real things, just look at what I want you to see. Jerks.

I voted for Perot to get their attention, as did a lot of other people. Ron Paul is the same kind of spoiler for both corrupt parties. Ron Paul may be in the GOP, but he's not "in the GOP".....

I voted for Ross in '92 and have never been ashamed of that. He was viable and would have protected our economy.

[MajorKong]

Perot may be a bit strange, but boy was he right about that "giant sucking sound".

[Ides]

Ross Perot's alive? I was just wondering about him the other day. Is it scary that Ross Perot was my favorite choice in the '92 elections even though I was only 9 years old?

(Hey, can he write us a check to get rid of this deficit?)

Ross Perot - Fine one to talk about being 'COMPROMISED'...
After Perot's 'quirky' exit and subsequent return to the 1992 Presidential race - because he said Republican 'Hit Men' had threatened to KILL HIM & HIS FAMILY?
A threat which Perot literally 'invited' by dangerously raising questions of Slick Willie's 1969 stay at the KGB's top Prostitute Training Ground - the Soviet-Era Intourist Hotel in Moscow!
So, as the so-called 'Drive-by' News media neglects to discern of this either in 1992, or now... is more of Ross Perot being the one who was 'compromised' and 'enslaved' into doing Clinton Inc's plan to SUCK VOTES AWAY FROM G.H.W. Bush (#41), and insure a Clinton victory in 1992.
By Perot falsely blaming GOP 'Hit Men', rather than Clinton Inc's 'Commie thugs' who would be more concerned with Perot mentioning Clinton's KGB Anti-Vietnam War training in Moscow in 1969, some say the Clintons diverted faithful Clinton-loving news media from asking if Perot were so frightened of GOP 'Hit Men' by dropping out of the 92 race, why was he suddenly ready to identify these Hit Men?
Clinton Inc's thugs must have been laughing hard as Perot shifted the blame away from them?
Besides, GOP 'Hit Men' plays so much better in liberal minds, who so readily gobble up whatever their feeble minds hear on ABC, CBS, CNN & NBC, or read in AP stories!
But for now, Ross Perot's aspersions on John McCain, who some Veterans groups say might be a possible 'Manchurian Candidate' after 'Hanoi Hilton' mind-control sessions, is literally like the Kettle calling the Pot - BLACK!!!
Just Google Clinton & KGB Intourist Hotel and see what you get on Bill Clinton's 1969 Intourist Hotel 'visit'.

Ross Perot is a sissy. He has no business talking about someone of McCain's stature. I am proud to live in a country where someone like McCain can rise to the top by demonstrating common decent values.

Alter quotes Perot saying the senator hushed up evidence that live POWs were left behind in Vietnam: "There's evidence, evidence, evidence," Perot claims. "McCain was adamant about shutting down anything to do with recovering POWs."

McCain denies it, but ask any member of MACV-SOG, the group that the TV show the A-Team was based on. They'll tell you this is the truth. And it comports with what the Vietnamese military guy told Perot decades ago.

Ask yourself why McCain didn't tout his POW experience in the 2000 race. He was afraid too many would come forward.

[ALMAL]

McCain sure has a lot of venom,and use it everywhere all the time.

[texastornado]

Shoulda listened to you Ross. The great sucking sound was American jobs. You were right,Nafta should never have been passed. Thanks to the Clintons.

Ross the boss is fruiter than a nut cake & as full of shit as an xmas turkey. Those are hi good points. Anybody who runs for POTUS & a glutton for punishment; W is a perfect example of that. That is the only thing W is good at. Texans are good at wretched excess & programmed to be wretched failures. Perot, LBJ & W are examples now that Howard Hughes is dead.

Ross Perot and Dennis Kucinich cared about the American manufacturing jobs and labor. The day has come to proclaim victory for their points of view. Unfortunately, the DLC and the neocons are selling your kids future to the Chinese for easy money for the business and investor class. Ultimately, the United States will bury itself with debt. The enemy was within. It was short-sighted greed.

Edwards is the closest thing to the Real Deal.

McCain jumps on the bandwagon every time. His trophy wife has had some face work at the cosmetic surgeon but, if she has money, that's what McCain needed.

One of my friends was a POW in North Korea. His quote is, "It's all about the money!" Even family values, "It's all about the money." Any political issue, it's all the same.

[FeloniouslyAnnoying]

Thats fine, they are both idiots.
I like that he as, the would be leader of the third world reads and believes the lies in email forwards he receives from his bigoted republican friends. Its amazing how stupid politicians are; and yet he's a billion. Huh, must be who you know. Here's a useful clue Ross: http://www.snopes.com

Shouldn't that be frutier than a fruitcake?
