It doesn't matter how many times he flip flops, he's Teflon John.

Maybe the implanted alien is a youngster. If so, in a few more months, he will need to call Sigourney Weaver.

I think he is talking about the alternative bill that he and others proposed, not the bill that passed.

Is this the same GI BIll - (WEBB) - that McCain explicity said he did not support because it was "too generous"? I'm confused. I mean, it was all over the news that he didn't support it.

That would be correct. McCain opposed Webb's G.I. bill.

Good for McCain, he came up with a word I thought was way out in left field, well it is sort of, the word "incentivizing".

Actually it is a word, incentivize means "to give incentives to"... sounded like a made up word though didnt it? Mc"Needs a "Cain looked so old in this video

SO That is why he did not bother to vote!!!! He now can say he backed the bill even though he did not and since he failed to vote he can claim it and people will believe him? Where is MSM and a voice for the truth when we need it?

What has O taken credit for that he had nothing to do with?

Be specific.

Don't you know?

Being a Troll means never having to be specific (or accurate).

there are no 'specifics'. the idea is to just keep throwing that BS at Obama til it sticks. just like they did with "you know he's a muslim don't you?"

I never fail to be impressed by how articulate McCain's supporters are!

You might want to get your "bozone" layer checked.

Bozone (n) The substance surrounding stupid people that stops
bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows
little sign of breaking down in the near future.

i read what you wrote word by word and it makes absolutely no sense.

i mean, the words are english, but the sentences are nonsense.

do you follow?

sorrow about being so condescending, but i am really assuming the worst here...

O.k. where is the loop of this on the MSM you won't see it. Geez, I hate this old geezer.

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 07:02 PM on 06/27/2008

No, the MSM won't cover this. They give McCain a pass because he was a POW (Cohen at WaPo wrote a piece), or because he's been kind to his "base" (the MSM press corps), they explain it way, by saying, "Well, what he meant to say was..." It's all pretty sickening how many times this guy has done this kind of stuff, and no one from the MSM has called him on it.

He was getting schooled on "Ellen" the day the vote was taken. He has no business taking credit for his shameful performance on Veteran's support.

Aw c'mon, give the poor old guy a break. That's what senility does to you. He's not being dishonest; he just can't remember what he said yesterday.......but don't worry, he'll never misplace those nuclear codes or forget that the Soviet Union no longer exists when he's president.

Just ONCE, I'd LOVE to see and hear the MSM FINALLY call this woman/America-h@ting b00b out on at least ONE of his lies! I'm sorry, "misspeaks"...OK, OK, OK, HYPOCRICY!
