John McCain Says Economy is "Fundamentally" Strong & "Most" Americans Don't Pay Taxes!

Can Someone Tell Me What Country John is Running for President In? Can I Get an Amen?

God help this country and the people who are in charge or want to be in charge.

Interview after interview with John McCain and Sarah Palin plays again and again on the TV. We are bombarded with politics and politicians 24/7. America is trying to decipher whether there is a choice this year or if we are playing Russian Roulette once again.

John McCain has sat on TV last week and this week and talked and talked. In analyzing his comments, I have decided that he is just a blithering, freaking idiot. I cannot make a sound argument to support anything he is saying. He is "As lost as a goose in a snowstorm" as my grandmother used to say.

He sat there in one interview and when asked about his opinion of the state of our economy, he says, " The economy of our country is "fundamentally" strong. This statement which came across to anyone listening was asinine. He realized he has made an error and started backpeddling the very next morning. His next wild statement was that he was referring to the American worker in his previous statement. He was swimming hard and said that the American workers were the "fundamentals" of this country and that "they" were strong. He tried so hard to switch his statement around to show his patriotic spirit in AMERICA! LOL!

The problem with that theory and his attempt to "snowball" the public is that yes, the American Workers are a hardworking, loyal bunch of folks, but John, if they don't have jobs to go to(because your cronies and your leadership in the Senate have let them go overseas), if they don't have homes to live in or healthcare for themselves and their children, How will they continue to be "fundamentally" strong?

Backpeddling is not going to solve this countries problems.

His other major misstatement was his interview on American Morning. When asked about his continued lying on Obama and his tax plan, McCain just jumped off the deep end of stupidity. The reporter told him that Obama's plan would cut taxes on 95% of the country. McCain's answer was, "Most Americans don't pay taxes"!

I again had to look twice at the television to be sure I was still listening to the same station.

John McCain is a liar and an out of touch old man. His campaign will lie as in the statement about the Blackberry that was made. John McCain didn't have anything to do with that technology except maybe some business that made him money. I want to see him expertly use a Blackberry!

He has used his influence and dishonesty to try and stop the investigation of Sarah Palin in "Troopergate". He has purposely kept her away from interviews or places and people that might bring her lack of knowledge and blatant ridiculous attitude to light. Why? Because he knows she is just a token for the female vote. She isn't suppose to DO anything but stand up there and act like a man, but flaunt the woman thing. She is going to be running our country?

If we employ a so called 9-11 type commission to "investigate" why the economy is so screwed up, WHEN will it get fixed? Neveruary! After McCain and Palin lock themselves behind the doors of the White House, America will once again experience George Bush. It will be "tough cookies" stupid people of America. You are on your own suckers!

Our economy nor the housing industry has not been in this bad of shape in many, many, many years. Alan Greenspan, the ex Fed Chairman, said yesterday, he has never seen the economy so bad.

The Government just bailed out AIG Insurance and let Lehman fall by the wayside. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are now under control of the Government. Merrill Lynch was taken over by Bank of America. Over 600,000 jobs have been lost in this country this year...

Is John McCain aware of how many more people will lose everything if we have to wait for some clown show commission to do anything? No he is not aware.
He doesn't give a damn about any of the issues. John McCain is ambitious and wants a legacy America. He wants that legacy regardless of whether it is bad or good. He isn't going to live a hell of a long time anyway, so if he can JUST get this title under his belt, he will die telling himself that he did a good job.

Sort of like what George Bush is going to do. In the last couple of months, anything Barack Obama said should be done with the Iraq situation and several other items on the list, George has hurried up and come up with his own plan eerily similar to what Obama has said. The LAST 6 months of his Presidency folks...Come On!....Just enough so he can claim he did SOMETHING....

John McCain is a selfish human being. So is Sarah Palin. Neither of them have one Clue on how to fix the REAL ISSUES facing our country. She can talk tough reform and blah, blah, blah. What does that mean? Does it mean new jobs, health care, fixed social security or what? Or does it mean she will assert her Manster act and stir up Washington with commissions and investigations and money, money, money spent on total crap?

John is saying, REFORM, REFORM, REFORM! Yet, his entire career, he has spent De-Regulating business and the massive blunders they have made. That translates to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are spending mine and yours tax dollars to reformulate their company, with its overpaid executives and they don't have to account for anything. They don't have to report anything. That is John McCain's Lifelong belief. Yet, you and I are technically the financiers of this undertaking.

Did you get a request form from the government asking if you were willing to participate in this BLIND VENTURE? I didn't!

Now AIG Insurance is being bailed out for $85 Billion! I didn't get that letter either. If MY money is going to be used to bail them out, I want to see financials and salary and employee information! Don't YOU? It is partially YOUR company! Shouldn't America be involved and aware of what the books say?

When you say "Enough is Enough", the big question is, Do you continue to take a royal screwing without the Vaseline? Sorry! I am not really into getting screwed anymore. If John McCain had been honest. First honest enough not to even run, then honest enough if he had to run, to treat the American people like they had good sense, I might have supported him. He has from the beginning of his nomination, when everyone else dropped out, told lie after lie after lie. He will even sit and defend a lie, EVERYBODY in the Room knows is a lie. He will change the subject, lie and spout nonsense to get out of answering about the issues.

He can tell us he is a PROUD AMERICAN HERO till he is Blue in the face. He is a liar......A selfish, self-serving liar. Sad American if you really look at it. If he were really an American Hero, he would have the heart of a man like Ronald Reagan. A man that was TRULY an American. A made who actually CARED about the people of this country. John McCain is just on a quest for glory before he is gone from this earth. Your problems and my problems are not his main focus. We are just stepping stones for that whole campaign.

Sarah Palin was mocking Michelle Obama on her pride in America. She said "SHE" was proud of America. I guess when you are one of the Abusers, you would feel that way. Cindy McCain said the same thing. She is another one of the "Out of touch".

As a lifetime Republican, I stood in line for two hours, twice to vote for Ronald Reagan. I stood in line to vote for George Bush, Sr. I also stood in line to vote for George W Bush. I believed that with his cocky, Texas "reformer" attitude, that he would walk into Washington and shake it up. He did that alright.

He shook it so hard with stupidity, cockiness, craziness and more that Washington may not recover, nor the country. We may have let Government run the game so long that it may not be fixable anytime soon. Especially if John McCain gets in. He wants to look into it first for awhile. Damn! I don't have a degree in business, but I can see the problems here.

This isn't a situation that we can sit around another 4 years and hope for better America. This is "You better get off of your lazy butts and pay attention"!
We don't have time for commissions to analyze this. Maybe you can call your mortgage company or landlord and say, " Hey, can you wait on my payment until after John McCain's commission can figure out why I can't pay you?"

I would like to ask John McCain, "What country are you living in"? "Are you sure you are still living in America"? "If "Most" Americans don't PAY TAXES, how do you get your salary from the Senate"?

The probability that John McCain and Sarah Palin would do the RIGHT thing and just say they are clueless is unlikely. They are in "fever" mode now. They can see the finish line and if they have to knock down the American People and leave tread marks on their backs to win, they will.

I am not sure about yours, but my forefathers shed blood to make this country FREE from tyranny and abuse. I won't support John McCain and Sarah Palin. No matter what comes out of their mouths, now it just sounds like Charlie Brown! WAH! WAH! WAH!

    Sadly, no one who has made up their mind ever gets it changed - good arguments are wasted on them and debates are useless. I suspect that Republicanism just may turn out to be akin to a Developmental Disability. Inbreeding spawned and incurable. Nice write up!
