This is such a pathetic, pathetic campaign. I feel like I'm stuck in some constant SNL skit.

6. Suck Toad and some guy Viqueira said that "McCain was involved"
and it looks like the talking points of MSM imply that McShame was running around in Capitol Hill with David Bonior and Mitch McConnell asking to "get this thing passed". I cannot tolerate Suck Toad anymore, it revolts me to hear his spin. But so far no deal just a "framework"

15. Isn't David Bonior at home in Michigan?
He's no longer in the House.

10. As soon as he said that
I went looking for this "breaking news". Nothing.

Ok on MSNBC now they say John McCain is taking credit for the framework of the deal.

And did you know he already won the debate?

8. If McCain has anything to do
with it, it will be a raw deal.

Roosevelt that was the true progressive.

..if John McCain had not shown up.

21. I saw that last night too, thought this was a repeat
but he said it again?

Last night I thought...well he was crazy. News about the meeting was already coming out, he had added nothing, in the midst of turmoil he didn't reach out but Obama did.

He has been so bad...so blatant...so useless, such a glory hog.

The media can make him look like a hero if they chose though because people want a strong hero in times of uncertyainty.

I am listening to CNN say how he has always put country first.

17. He is such a smarmy, self-congratulatory, sleazy POS!!!!!
He did nothing but harm.
And he wants to get credit for helping the process?

Please.

18. MSM Giving Him Leeway Though... Saying That IF An Agreement Is Reached
sometime between NOW and Sunday, then he would benefit by being seen as doing the "people's" work. Not the exact words, my interpretation, but the meaning is still the same!!!

So, once again... McLoonery is ON BOARD with MSM!! Disgusting!

19. WHY??? HE is not on that GOD DAMN COMMITTEE So WHY are they involving him?
Edited on Fri Sep-26-08 11:24 AM by texas1928
You don't see Obama asking to be put on the committee. Did they make McShit4brains a committee member?
