McCain: "...world is safer now
than it was on September 11." I've been wondering how Republicans can continually make that claim, but it's clear to me now. The world wasn't at all safe on September 11. Now I get it.

1. Edwards had the perfect response to that today: viz:
Bush and Cheney "are the last two people we need a lecture from about how to keep the American people safe."

(subtext: Anyone remember 9/11?)

8. Excellent. He seems to be setting up for the debate
Edited on Wed Sep-22-04 08:58 PM by BeyondGeography
I pray that Edwards sticks the 9/11 Commission findings in Cheney's face during the debate. Put that smug bastard on the defensive and keep him there.

It's about time we held these charlatans accountable.

21. That was perfect John
Edited on Wed Sep-22-04 10:27 PM by MODemocrat
After all, September 11, happened on Bush/Cheney's watch, and even though they had prior knowledge of it happening, they hid out and let
it happen. So, what are they going to do different to make us safe if they're put in office again? :bounce: :bounce:

4. Republican talking points verbatim. Pull the string
and he mouths the daily propoganda swill. They're like a bunch of talking Chuckie dolls.

13. Exactly. Both Powell and McCain are whores. Say "yes"...
...to the most powerful.

And we call them heros? I think not.

11. McCain is a jack-boot repuke storm trooper who places his...
...loyalty to the republican machine above the American people and what is best for America. Words are great, but actions tell the story. Excuse me while I hurle in the corner....:puke:

12. When he seeks the nomination in 2008...
I say we sandbag his ass hard. Lets make him look as liberal as possible and make him unelectable to the repubs. That is what he deserves for backing the Devil.

23. Oh fishnfla, why would you ask that question?
McCain makes a statement; he doesn't intend to accept any responsibility for it. None of those goofballs can give one good reason why we're safer now, because we're not, we're worse off than we've ever been. The neo nazis really scare me more than anything else. :evilfrown: McCain :puke: :crazy:

He treated this as a football game, he and Tweety both. How much of a win spread? My Goodness, how out of touch are these people?

What if he had been a shoe bombing, box cutter terrorist? Would they have landed in Maine??? Oh, Martha's going to jail. I feel soooo safe now from those terrorist homemakers.

24. Maybe he *DID* come off his spool in that tiger cage...
in the Hanoi Hilton...

So Mrs. McCain comes to bed one night and there's John, balancing peanuts and cashews on the end of his boner.

"John! what are you DOING???"

"Can't you see, Woman? I'm FUCKING NUTS!"
