For Equal Coverage Sake:
On Thursday, John McCain accepted the presidential nomination of the Republican Party. “Change is coming,” he promised the roaring Republican National Convention and prime-time television audience. (Really? Hopefully not yours...)
Cindy McCain explained why her husband should be president: “It’s going to take someone of unusual strength and character — someone exactly like my husband — to lead us through the reefs and currents that lie ahead. I know John. You can trust his hand at the wheel.”...(Jesus Take The Wheel!!)

I sat there through that speech being open minded, trying to understand what his policies were and what he stood. What I got out of his speech was no policies, a whole bio of his prisoner of war life and his so called change. When he kept talking about change, I back tracked to when this man said the whole change idea was a gimmick for democrats to win, yet he uses the same “gimmick word” On top of that I felt it was funny how he tried to criticize Bush and compliment him at the same time. That confused me dearly. Here are some keys things that really boggled me:
“People who get layed off from a corporation, its time they get up an find a job that will keep them”- well I’m sure from what I’ve seen, people that have worked at these corporations for years had no idea or warning they were gonna get layed off. Should people now go to jobs and ask the potential of them being layed off if the economy drops?
“If people can’t get a job in their field of study, we will make sure they go back an attend a community college to learn a trade.” -If I have done my years of school for a promising career that went downhill because of America’s outsourcing issues, you mean to tell me that I have to go and do more years of college to learn another trade I can care less for? Besides who is gonna foot that bill?
Off shore drilling is ridiculous. For one thing how much more are we gonna dig in this earth when there are other ways of energy proven to be efficient. Also they are not even shore if there is oil there. Lastly this will just be another oil company that will have the choice on raising gas prices, more taxes on citizens, while McCain and Palin become billionaires like Bush and Cheyney off of oil. They win this thing I’m off to Dubai where the country is rich and don’t believe in taxes on top of that.
John McCain’s speech was so lame. And his wife is one crazy looking heifer. I am afraid to look into her eyes, I feel like if I do, I’ll turn to stone…sort of like Medusa, you know?
I am tired of hearing about John McCain being a POW. Folks are afraid to let it be known that John McCain’s POW story is very stale at this point out of fear for being deemed unpatriotic. Well, I am here to tell you that being a POW does not qualify you to be president of the United States and I dare anyone to challenge my patriotism. I served in not one but two branches of the United States Armed Forces, both Navy and Army. I have had my fair share of combats, from Kosovo, in during Bill Clinton’s tenure, to the early parts of the Iraqi Freedom. If service is the yardstick used to measure patriotism, then I am more patriotic than most, including John McCain.
He still had no specific plan outlined. I really wasn’t that impressed, for me half the speech was P.O.W. and war talk. I’m tired of hearing that. And is it me or was he was using Obamas “Yes We Can” and “Change” slogans? And then a chick out there in the audience holding a ‘Drill Baby Drill’ sign? All I could do was shake my head. Everybody thought it was such a great speech but he didnt’ say anything! Man, I can’t wait for the debates.
And I’m glad Barack went on the O’Reily show! Even Bill had to give Obama his due!
BOOOOOOO! His speech sucked! And he hijacked so many of Obama’s themes it was disgusting. He said change more times than I could count. I hope no one believes the lies that come out of the Republicans mouths. Thank you McCain for fighting for this country and finishing fifth from the bottom of your class in the military but what have you done for me lately. You talk about change, yet you’ve been in Washington for God knows how many decades voting against the very reforms that this country so desperately needs. I dont believe you want change. You want to get into office in order to continue Bush’s failed policies. This country cannot afford John McCain as president.
On a side note, did anyone peep how dismissive and belittling the Repubs were toward community organizers? That disgusted me that they would take jabs at the people who are selflessly fighting to better the places they live. They are not out here pretending to care in order to win a vote like McCain.
McCain speech last nite was sleeper. He still doesn’t understand that this country need change not the same not onces did he ever say what he’s gonna do to help the economy & boost jobs that have been at a down fall. Other republicans are saying his message is online come on he had a 2 days between Palin & his self & didn’t.
I agree McCain's speech was a sleeper>>>
1. He tried to distance himself from Bush, which is crazy because he was Bush's VP for 8 years (where he voted 90 percent of the time with Bush) and he's been in the senate for more than 20 years. He didn't do anything then and he won't now.
2. He's a war hero...wonderful, thanks, but that doesn't make him the correct choice for President.
3. Where are his policies? How does he plan to bring about change? Not much detail here..but he spent the time talking about himself and not the country. What happen to Country First?
4. He claims Obama plans to raise taxes and take away jobs. From what it sounds like he plans to give breaks to the "rich folks" and not the lower class. The Top-down method don't work because it never trickles down to the middle class. Obama is all about stimulating the economy by giving the middle class more of their paychecks.
This man makes me sick and so do all those folks who support him. His wife loves like a wreck...her designer clothes isn't helping much.
Obama has to win...he has to. People need to get out and vote because it's clear McCain isn't concerned about the middle-class and indigent folks. He doesn't even have a plan as to how he'll change what's been going on in Congress.
Stay informed folks!!!!
