McCain and his campaign seem to do more flip-flops than all the acrobats in every circus! It looks like the "Straight Talk Express" is out of gas and up on blocks with the hood propped open!

[lisakaz2]

Does this mean he actually READ the bill? I know he never voted for it.

[Diplomacy]

Looks like more of the 'same' from McCain, the "McFlipFlop King of the Road" on the "Double-Talk Express".

Not more than 10 days ago this guy was "DISSING" this Bill.

"This Election is about TRUST", your own words, "McFlip-Flop". The question is can you be "TRUSTED", Senator McCain?

The wheels are off the bus! It's the "Double-Talk Express".

Talk about someone who can't be trusted.
Why isn't this in the MSM? This is horrible. This guy is so crooked!

[pupbayer]

It's a political ad! McCain does it. Obama does it. Be outraged. It's not right and it's not truthful. However, they've both done it and I'll bet it won't be the last time for either of them.

John McCain got his chance at a town hall yesterday in front of the Hispanic delegation, they couldn't wait for him to be gone. Obama came in and they went wild, they mobbed him and his answer were crisp and informative.

Why do people think that because Obama went easy on Hillary that he can't debate, Obama is a great writer. McCain is lucky that Obama doesn't have the time to debate flag pins with him, he should think about what happened yesterday.

At least Gore actually did all the things he said, even though the MSM and the Repugnicants blew it all out of proportion.

Next McCain will take credit for the jet propulsion, the computer, antibiotics...

Mission GI Bill Accomplished. Thanks Johnny Boy

[Plowboy]

So he now takes credit for something he opposed? So what! That only shows that he is a good observer and has learned the only thing his master, Bush, did well: LIE.
But he is not yet quite as good as Bush, since he mesed up and explained his opposition. People could remember ....... well, if this were not a brain dead country, it might.
Get back to your TV, folks, and don't worry about it.
He's a Republican after all.

Did I read that someone said Obama voted nah on The New G.I. Bill well he needed to check his facts. Here I'll give you a link so next time you can get your fact straight.

I don't know if you are referring to a post I made or not. If so, you have the wrong bill. I said he did not vote on the National Defense Authorization Act (Public Law 110-181). This is the bill he refers to in his tv ad. He did NOT vote on it.

McCain also claimed authorship of the Gettysburg Address, said his foreign policy experience was honed during his smooth handling of the Cuban Missle Crisis, and claimed he could fart the Battle Hymn of the Republic.

I think mccain has lost his mind. He flips his mouth open and out comes another flop.

Go away mccain - no trip to the WH for you.

[Daly]

Cain is lying and no one in the audience has a clue? No one questioned him on it? No vets there?

This is why he likes these venues not challenged and when they ask questions it is ov no real value like the trollop question.

[oldwiseone]

They must think we are as smart as they are

[oldwiseone]

After watching the replublicans and especially McCain, I am now convinced that they believe we are as dumb as they are.
