| Why would we want an old man in office that says he will continue what Bush started?
Why would we want him in office when we know he's to old and could die?
(I personally beleive the GOP wants it this way so his VP will be prez who ever they choose for him) Here in AZ his own party doesn't even like him good old Sherrif Joe don't even support this guy and most of you think Joe's the shit. I swear if their was republican that was worthy of of my vote(Colon Powell)I'd vote for them in a heart beat
but it seems that most here would rather die than vote Democrate.

| Rather die than vote democrate? Well "yes" today that is a good way as any to put it!! Most all my life democrats & repubicans were against real sociallisem and Fascism. Now both paries are raceing toward both as fast as they can, Dems realy started with willson but repubicans got in high gear after Regen. So now you know why Ron Paul looks soooooo good to me. This year you will be voteing demicrate wether Oboma, McCain, or Hillary and voteing aganst our old Republic. and for the new world order.

| 'cause he's simply the best qualified Establishment Party (Dem or Rep)candidate running and the best money can buy. Out of the 3 left, he did serve his country in a way others can even imagine-as a p.o.w.

| McCain for me as well. Reading your post correctly it says C. Powell was a POW. Not so. Forget Powell and all the media nonsense and liberal garbage.
Last time I checked age is relative. How old was JFK?

| So much misinformation is taken as truth by those who weren't actually IN Vietnam, while McCain was a POW. I was, and knew John McCain was a favorite son of Admiral McCain, his father, Commander of the entire Armed Forces in Europe. John McCain NEVER set foot in a combat zone is South Vietnam, and never commanded any troops either! He is NO war HERO!!
Do some homework! He has PTSD, cancer, and his temper has been labeled as "Insane McCain" in Congress! I don't want this guy with his finger on "the button"!!
Top Cop Says McCain Was Never Tortured
Former Vietnam vet with top secret clearance - Republican frontrunner is "a lying skunk"
Article by: Paul Joseph Watson
Thursday, February 7th, 2008
A former Vietnam veteran with top secret clearance says he has personally spoken to numerous POW's who dispute John McCain's claim that he refused to provide information after he was captured and tortured in Hanoi, saying that in fact McCain's code-name was "Songbird" because of his willingness to tell all to avoid torture.
Jack McLamb served nine years in secret operations in Cambodia and other nations before going on to become one of the most highly decorated police officer's in Phoenix history, winning police officer of the year twice before taking a role as a hostage negotiator for the FBI.
"I know a lot of Vietnam veterans and a few POW's and all the POW's that I've talked to over the years say that John McCain is a lying skunk," McLamb told the Alex Jones Show.
"He never was tortured - they were there in the camp with him and then when he came in....he immediately started spilling his guts about everything because he didn't want to get tortured," said McLamb, contradicting the official story that McCain only offered his name, rank, serial number, and date of birth.
"The Vietnamese Communists called him the Songbird, that's his code name, Songbird McCain, because he just came into the camp singing and telling them everything they wanted to know," said McLamb.
McLamb said the POW's told him that McCain had sustained two broken arms and a leg injury from not pulling his arms in when he bailed out of his A-4 Skyhawk that was shot down over the Truc Bach Lake in Hanoi.
The POW's said that McCain made 32 propaganda videos for the communist North Vietnamese in which he denounced America for what they were doing in Vietnam.
"They have these sealed now, our government has these sealed, we can't get to it, they have it classified," said McLamb, adding that in truth "the POW's hate John McCain."
It is commonly accepted that McCain was treated better than other POW's and afforded medical care immediately after the North Vietnamese discovered that his father was a top admiral.
Several Vietnam veterans groups do solely exist to expose McCain's abandonment of veteran's interests as well as his lies about being tortured, including Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain and U.S. Veteran Dispatch.
Doubts over McCain's alleged war hero status and his support to curtail efforts to look for missing POW's contributed to torpedoing his presidential campaign in 2000 and those same questions will undoubtedly surface again should the Senator win the Republican nomination
******************************
Here is another site to check on this man's reputation with Veterans,
http://www.veteransforcommonsense.org/articleid/9559
This is a Congressional record of his voting on Veterans issues, and by his votes, he is NOT the Veterans friend, and has the worst rating by the DAV (Disabled American Veterans) of any Senator. Go to the Military Veterans site in "Groups" if you want to get some more information that isn't just "opinion" without fact to back it up!
McCain has voted against every Veterans Bill before Congress since 91, and he hates the POW's families that are trying to find out what happened to their sons and fathers.
He was a member of the Keating Five, in the Savings & Loan scandal, and through his dad's influence, the only one who wasn't indicted! Go to: www.usvetdsp.com and EDUCATE yourselves, instead of listening to talk show hosts who do drugs like Limbaugh!
His wife waited for him to be released from captivity, and had a car accident, and she was disfigured and kept this from him in her letters to him. (Yes, he got mail) When he got back, he got a cushy job away from her, and committed adultery with the woman he is married to now, the Anhauser Bush Heiresss, worth over a hundred million dollars. He divorced his wife, and maried Cindy Hensley within two months. Very honorable man, right!
He lobbied against the release of classified documents proving that there were still men alive in North Vietnam, and got them sealed against the wishes of the wives and children of the men who were still missing. Today, there are over 1,200 POW/MIA's unaccounted for, and John McCain hugged the men who tortured them right in front of Congress at the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA issues, when McCain wanted to normalize trade with Communist Vietnam, and lift the trade embargo. This embargo was the last tool that the family's had to force the North to release the documents on those missing in action, or taken to the Soviet Union, China, or Cuba.
McCain didn't want the truth of his own personal interrogation and record of his 30 video tapes becoming public, so he screwed the other 1,200 POW/MIA's to keep the records sealed, and to give Communist Vietnam free trade with the US. Shortly after he accomplished this, his new wife, Cindy Hensley had her dad James, opened up a huge Anhauser Bush Brewery in Vietnam! Now, no one wil know the truth of what he did and said while a POW, and they Communists have their man in a position to do them all the favors they need!
Get the truth, do some homework, and learn who this man REALLY is!

| It's interesting that most of us who plan to vote for McCain are not zealous backers; we just feel he is far and away the best of the lot.

| Word around here is that Tom Ridge is the leading VP candidate for McCain. What I want to know is who are the other two going to pick? Kennedy was in his early 40's. McCain would have won as an independent at one time but he remained true to his party and gave us Bush instead. Colin Powell will never run for office because he is a family man of honor and does not desire that his wife be butchered by the media. I do believe he would be the ideal candidate but it won't happen. It's Hillary by default unless McCain picks a really strong running mate.
