Sphere: Related ContentThat McCain never chose Mitt Romney, a seasoned politician/businessman, raises a big red-flag.
Consider this: Joe Biden other than Hillary Clinton was perhaps most sharply critical of Obama during the long and arduous Democratic primary.
Biden said of Obama:
“We find it a little disingenuous that Sen. Obama is hailing this as a new bold initiative when he has neglected to join his colleagues in the Senate when the opportunities have been there to redirect our forces into Afghanistan” Biden campaign manager Luis Navarro said at the time. “It’s good to see Sen. Obama has finally arrived at the right position, but this can hardly be considered bold leadership.”
Biden’s contradiction caused the Republican National Committee to issue this statement: “Thank you, Sen. Biden, for proving the point that Barack Obama has no credibility on Afghanistan.”
In January, Sen. Joseph Biden (D-DE) said Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) is “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.” Biden’s “insensitive remarks” were roundly criticized, and he apologized.
The Chicago Tribune explained:
Note to Biden. Well-spoken black people hate it when white people call them “articulate.” It’s the modern-day version of what white people used to say back in the day when they thought that by saying “He’s a credit to his race” they were saying something that a black person would welcome hearing.
Those dated words, like Biden’s comments, were patronizing at the very least. And they also appeared to carry some pretty negative assumptions about the majority of the race.
In an interview with Fox News’ Neil Cavuto, Bush stupidly echoed Biden’s remarks when asked about Obama. “He’s an attractive guy. He’s articulate. I’ve been impressed with him when I’ve seen him in person,” Bush said.
…but guess what, this did not prevent Obama from choosing him as his partner. Obama has “correctly judged” that he needs Biden’s expertise to run America — an indicator that he will surround himself with the best minds to run the country, unlike Bush who looks as dumb as his decisions — engineered by “daddy’s designated chaperone,” the heartless “darth vader” Dick Cheney.
In the spirit of Abraham Lincoln, Obama has demonstrated that he will never stop trying to reach out to his political enemies. By selecting Biden, he has shown how he will govern — Even when faced with bitter opposition from members of his own party he will always try to reach a compromise, and he will seek consensus in governing.
Biden will not be a “yes-man” to Obama, instead he will be a forceful and “loyal” advocate for the Obama administration, unlike the temperamental, “erratic egotist” McCain, who cannot stand a younger more polished, taller man (Romney) as his vice-presidential choice. Romney, by far, would have been the better choice for McCain — to help him work the American economy, which McCain has said he knows very little about.
Even the “Barracuda” who looks more like McCain’s daughter, will not be able to twist McSAME’s made-up mind when it is dead-set….in the same mode as the STUPID Lying BUSH.
Right-wing SNAKE Pat Buchanan sums it up eloquently:
McCain is a rigid old-school gambler, and that’s why he chose a “harmless and easily controlled” 44 year old far-right conservative, who supported Pat Buchanan over George W. Bush in 2000.

Palin’s right-wing extremist ideology summed up:
• She thinks global warming is a hoax.
• She backs the teaching of creationism (Intelligent Design) in public schools — in opposition to Darwin’s theory of evolution, which is accepted universally by the scientific community.
• Palin opposes abortion even in the case of rape and incest. — Unless it is her own daughter(Typical Republican Hypocrisy). Like McCain she wants to overturn Roe V. Wade. She is also a member of the radical anti-choice organization Feminists for Life.
• She opposes Gay Marriage, Domestic Partnerships and all benefits attached — Unless her own daughter/son is gay(Another typical Republican Hypocrisy)
• Palin is pro-guns and is a life-time member of the “gun-running” NRA(National Rifle Association)
• She wants ALL IMMIGRANTS kicked out of the Unites States. (McCain has been a bumbling yo-yo on immigration lately — he has one foot in the “Latino Vote Pot,” and the other in the far-right Nativist ‘Snake-Pit’)
• Palin is Pro-Death Penalty — Read: DNA Testing and the Death Penalty
The fear is that McCain unlike Obama may not lead with CONSENSUS, and will not tolerate criticism just like George Bush. He will lead with a tight-knit JUNTA just like George Bush, the latest in a long list of “RIGHT-WING AMERICAN DICTATORS.”
Like Bush, McCain seemingly follows his GUT and not his HEAD, therefore his decision making process is likely to be as flawed, straight-jacketed and as dangerous as Bush’s.
Using the words of Robert Kennedy, “past error is no excuse for its own perpetuation,” Obama correctly said that McCain has refused “to learn from the failures of the Bush years.”
America beware — A McCain presidency would definitely be a third term for Bush.

1. 6 things the Palin pick says about McCain — He’s desperate. Let’s stop pretending this race is as close as national polling suggests. The truth is McCain is essentially tied or trailing in every swing state that matters — and too close for comfort in several states like Indiana and Montana the GOP usually wins pretty easily in presidential races. On top of that, voters seem very inclined to elect Democrats in general this election — and very sick of the Bush years. McCain could easily lose in an electoral landslide. That is the private view of Democrats and Republicans alike.
2. McCain’s ‘Hail Sarah’ Pass — His choice for veep is all but set up for failure in the fall.

Sphere: Related ContentThe typical guest on a late-night comedy show is a jaded celebrity who oozes irony or an average person who makes the news for some wacky reason.
Sen. John McCain, 71, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee is from a generation that eschews irony. McCain is like a fish out of water trying to exchange quips with Jay Leno or Conan O’Brien.
In high school sometimes the jocks would let a nerd eat lunch with them, not out of pity or compassion, but so that they could poke fun at him while they gobbled their fish sticks and fries. McCain reminds me of the hapless geek sitting with the jocks when I see his pitiful performances on the late-night comedy circuit.
McCain can’t discuss pop culture with Jay or David — that leaves only one subject to gab about: McCain’s age.
Here’s an example from McCain’s latest appearance with Conan O’Brien:
“John McCain and talk show host Conan O’Brien joke around about the Republican presidential candidate’s age and running mate pick.
O’Brien opened his show by saying, ‘Normally on Fridays we would tape our show at 4:30, but to accommodate Senator John McCain we agreed to tape the show at 5:30. Senator McCain wasn’t available at 4:30 because that’s when he eats dinner,’ according to a transcripta released by NBC. ‘Late Night with Conan O’Brien’ airs from 12:35 a.m. to 1:35am on NBC.
The 71-year-old McCain quipped, ‘Well, I had dinner and a nap.’” .. Quotation from Boston.Com/Foon Rhee
McCain is like that nerd who is so eager to please the jocks that he allows himself to be the butt of the jokes.
Unless a Republican scientist can resurrect Mike Douglas or Merv Griffin, McCain should avoid late-night comedy shows like the plague.
