Oh no! *gasp*

Not the dreaded disrespectful behavior.

Seriously though, after some of the vile shit I've seen you write about people, that's just L-O-L

What do Deson and McCain the grumpy old man have in common?

Rape Jokes

In an appearance before the National League of Cities and Towns in Washington D.C., McCain supposedly asked the crowd if they had heard "the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die?" The punch line: "When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, "Where is that marvelous ape?"

Pretense and the inability to say/realize a joke is just a joke.

Lol. Screw the GOP and John McCain. And this time McCain and his camp can't complain since they opened Pandora's box on this one with the celebrity adds.

First impression I get, with the Charleston type music is a dirty crooked mobster. I'm glad they are going to openly go after McCain's lobbyist world. He's got lobbyist calling him non stop, running his campaign, tugging at his coat tails, he doesn't know which way to look.

McCain reminds me of those old school politicians that sits back in smoky back rooms with cigars and whiskey, making dodgy, corrupt deals that obliterate small town economies.

There a reason why not many long term Senators run for office. They are in one way or another, tied to lobbyists that don't have U.S. interests in mind, only the mighty $$$. For them to run and claim they have the every day citizen in mind when they campaign and make frame their position on issues is a flat out lie. They rely heavily, as John McCain has, on lobbyists to organize and shape their campaign and policy there after.

If anyone would like to familiarize themselves with McCain's lobbying universe before they blindly follow this guy into the abyss, I'll give you a hand with a couple links. The first link from TMP lists those in his inner circle, the second list contains those plus fundraisers. Enjoy.

McCain Has Had At Least 133 Lobbyists Running His Campaign & Raising Money For Him

That's a pretty diverse list of companies there, almost as if you were to say, "Capitalism endorses John McCain". But then again it's all irrelevant because he's competing against a blank slate who wants to be whatever you want him to be.

Krontak · 08-11-2008, 10:52 AM

I'll take my chance with a slate blank of lobbyists and special interests any day of the week.

Deson · 08-11-2008, 10:54 AM

So basically, if you are a politician with a real record and history,you shouldn't run for office because neophytes and their acolytes will nitpick on every aspect of your record for an attack point while being immune themselves because they never did anything of note.

Kinda funny posting that while ignoring the fact that virtually the only difference between McCain and Obama's relationships to lobbyists is payroll.Obama gets money from bundlers and the Unions have been a pretty damned effective lobby for him. If "Capitalism endorses John McCain" then "Socialism and the Democratic status quo" endorse Obama with no less fervor.

That's like choosing a raid leader who never played EQ2.

And imagine, the Keating Five scandal hasn't even became an issue. Sure, McCain was never found guilty of any crime, but he was found to display poor judgment.

And holy crap Deson, are you on here 24/7. I log on occasionally to throw you all a bone and you usually respond within' 5 minutes. Jiminy. heh.

No body's nitpicking. McCain's world is controlled by lobbyists. Sure, if you want to call them capitalists that's fine. But, I can assure you, their primary motive is $$$, which apparently you don't give a crap about, even if it means loosing manufacturing and low to middle income jobs. Because hey, if big business is in the green, then the rest of America is right? Right? Sometimes but not always.
