I'm not sure what you are referencing, but it wouldn't surprise me if I had disagreements with him on that as well.

That's another one.

You aren't going to find me complimenting McCain. Very often anyway.

Well, only insanity if you don't count Korea, Japan, Germany or any of the other places we've established the military outposts of our world-wide empire.

I'm no McCain fan ... but I hate people's statements being misrepresented. OF COURSE we will have a permanent military presence in Iraq. That's going to happen whether McCain wins or not.

But, yeah, he's still a dunce on timelines, defense, countries, tribes, and the internet.

At least McCain does not claim to have invented the internet. Just Sayin'

Why?

You expected anyone to defend him for the other stuff?

scaeagles · 08-06-2008, 11:09 AM

No, Scrooge....not at all. But perhaps an acknowledgement that, yes, Leo isn't just saying he dislikes McCain (as the OP seems to suggest), but he has real policy and personality disagreements and dislikes might be in order. I'm not just saying that I don't like McCain.

Scrooge McSam · 08-06-2008, 11:27 AM

IC... Sorry, that wasn't something I thought needed to be said.

You illustrated that quite adequately in your first post.

You're not just saying that you don't like Obama either. You have a daily reason stemming from whatever current campaign events there are.

This is your thread to do the same with McCain. He has a campaign, too.

OK...I am happy to comment when I see stuff in the news. I don't see anything in the news about McCain....well, that is an exaggeration, but not nearly as much as there is about Obama. That, and there was an Obama thread.

I was contemplating, though, and I would like to add that McCain is an elitist as well. He once said, in support of illegal immigration, that American citizens wouldn't pick lettuce for $50/hour. That was elitist and stupid and showed how absolutely out of touch he is the income of the average American. Hell, I'd pick lettuce for $50/hour, and I'm sure just about everyone here would, too.
