Hey Cindy McCain - so did your husband, your son's own father

edited October 2008 in A Moving Train
John McCain, your husband, the father to your son, the war veteran, the maverick, the man who wants to be the next President of the United States also VOTED AGAINST troop funding because the Bill had a time-table FOR withdrawal.

Here's a cold chill thought - How many soldiers have to be sacrificed before McCain remembers Iraq is not Vietnam?

So Cindy, why don't you do what you do best, stay in the background and think about your next outfit.

    You forgot to tell her that she needs more Botox too.

    I don't think anyone but the Republican base actually buys the war funding issue.

    They're preaching to the choir on this issue.

    I think Cindy McCain and Michelle Obama should debate... that would be one of the most entertaining events in TV history.
    All the rusted signs, we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiny ones instead...

    actually, it would be a huge mismatch. michelle obama is an intelligent, accomplished woman. cindy mccain is the paris hilton of the political set.

    If a war veteran who has been through plenty fighting overseas votes against the bill, I feel pretty confident that I can trust his judgement.

    the irony in funny...cindy seems to have no clue...they both voted against funding....therefore, mccain has no grounds to attack Obama for his vote...

    I would think cindy would support her son coming home....I guess not...

    I spoke about this in the other Cindy thread.

    The other point that somoene should remind Cindy of, the troops wouldn't need additional funding if we didn't go to war in the first place.

    That fact her husband voted for this war that was sold to the American public under false pretenses, and that had Obama been in Congress, he would have voted against it (he was against it from the start) ... that should send a cold chill up your spine Mrs. McCain #2.

    I think those days are long behind us.

    24 news stations need to fill the air with something all day long ... so, they are going to dig into the lives of the first ladies (and first dudes) ... I mean, you never know when they might run for president themselves, right?

    That's it! Because a war vet, who is willing to tell a NEW generation of soldiers to stay there and die until there is victory or a white flag of surrender - in a WAR ON TERRORISM - because he never tasted victory and now, by power of a vote, is making these soldiers do what he thinks Nixon and Kissinger should have done. Win at any cost.

    That's not leadership, that's called living in the past, unfortunately, lives are on the line, including his sons. So, Cindy either needs to get it together or stay in the background.

    No - I think he's looking out for the soldiers' and Iraqi citizens' best interests. You don't think he would fund the soldiers if the bill was a good bill?

    well, McCain does mention "Victory" a lot ... so much so that the McCain campaign's stump speeches are VERY harsh on Barack Obama for not using the word "victory" ... then they couple Obama's failure to use the word victory with his nay vote on the funding bill with no timeline to question his patriotism.

    But McCain feels the need to claim "Victory", he's said it, over and over ... yet, the leader of our forces, General Petraeus has said flat out, he never would use the term "victory" in Iraq ...

    "This is not the sort of struggle where you take a hill, plant the flag and go home to a victory parade... it's not war with a simple slogan"

    The GI Bill was a good bill, so you tell me.

    So correct me if I have mis-perceived this. You are defending McCain for his vote (Obviously) and still backing Cindy for her shot at Obama (of this I am not sure).

    Let me guess. While trusting McCain's judgement, you feel that Obama assessed the troops as majority white and voted against it because he's a racist.
