Scarborough & Russert find it despicable McCain is being swift boated
on his patriotism & service in SC. Understand where Scarborough was when Kerry was being swift boated on his patriotism and service but where was Russert who is supposed to be unbiased in these matters. All I remember was his glee in reporting it and making it the news story it was but he certainly did not condemn it as he is with McCain.

Was showing the video clip of McCain with our buddy Lieberman on his left and Lindsey Graham behind him. Reminded me of the geriatric ward or a nursing home the way they looked.

3. There is something VERY wrong with McCain
He looks really ill. OR like some sort of skin bag that is being artificially animated

4. That's what you get when you use Cheney's "doctors".
Who'd a thought the Republicans would be the ones to perfect zombie dust.

5. Well the rethugs don't like McCain because for one they think the media....
is pushing him giving him favorable press because they know he's the easiest to beat in a general election.so they will destroy McCain they rather have Flip flop Romney or Fred Dead Thompson as there nominee. they don't like Huckabee either.

9. It is as I stated in my post but my point is where the hell was Russert when
this was being done to Kerry and he anyway did not seem to find it despicable but only a newsworthy story.

10. You're right.
There's no argument there. Our veterans are to be revered, protected, and helped. They do everything for us including dealing with years of trauma after they get out. People that denigrate vets for their service like Kerry and McCain are the lowest forms of shit.

11. Absolutely, you got that right. I am not advocating for these asses to be
allowed to do this to McCain. I respect him very much and god knows he went through hell being a POW. Somehow, these people should be brought up in some way for this kind of crap.

8. Russert asked Kerry about Cambodia in early '05. Just despicable.
These guys have no shame. Of course, McCain's base is in the media, so the double standard is no surprise.
