Could you imagine a Democrat making this claim, instead of a Republican presidential contender? Now comes presidential candidate and “enhanced interrogation” supporter Rick Santorum arguing on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show that McCain simply “doesn’t understand how enhanced interrogation works.” Yes, he’s talking about the same John McCain who, in his five and a half years […]
A lot of wingnuts are dismissing Christopher Buckley for leaving the National Review. They seem to forget that the National Review wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for his father, who founded the magazine. Buckley shares a sentiment that I hear from countless Republicans, especially the Reagan class of Republicans: While I regret this development, […]
The wingnuts are in a frenzy over Obama’s ad mocking McCain’s lack of technical intellect. They are all coming to his defense saying he can’t use a keyboard because of injuries he received as a POW. That is an interesting argument, but if he can’t use a full sized computer keyboard, then how can he […]
So a commenter on Michelle Malkin’s blog decides to make what appears to be so some sort of “funny” (far from it). “Blackie Onassis”? Remember – this is Malkin’s blog, a blog where you must be a registered user to comment, and registration is pretty much by invite only. That means that Malkin has invited […]
USA Today: Obama holds a 47%-43% edge over McCain among registered voters and a 48%-45% edge among likUSA Todayely voters. Both leads are within the margin of error of +/—4 percentage points. To this, Bob Cesca points out: The previous numbers showed McCain 49, Obama 45. Why can’t McBush close the deal? So why is […]
While John McCain goes out and touts his POW experience as an excuse to not remember how many homes he owns, Brandon Friedman of VetVoice reminds of us thousands of veterans who don’t have a single home, except maybe a cardboard box.
That’s the excuse the McCain campaign is using now for the housing gaffe: Eric Kleefeld notices that McCain aides referred back to McCain’s time as a prisoner of war in Vietnam in defending him from the mockery over his houses. This is a guy who lived in one house for five and a half years […]
Is this the truth? No. But if John McCain thinks he can go out and say the same thing about people he don’t agree with when it comes to Iraq, then we have the right to wage our own baseless attacks against him. Of course if our side does start those attacks, McCain’s campaign would […]
John Edwards has admitted to the rumors of his affair, and already the right is in a frenzy. So, can anyone refresh my memory? When was it John McCain started dating Cindy? When was it that they applied for their marriage license? Oh yeah – while McCain was married to the woman who waited for […]
Great – I say the General should release them. Then we can see if John McCain would be willing to do the same with his. Let the records speak for themselves. No more of this “I was a POW so I am the greatest American alive” crap that John McCain tries to peddle.
