unsung I stopped by on March 7 2024. First time in many years, had to update payment info. Hope all is well. Politicians suck. Bye. Posts: 9,487Julien wrote:McCain sucks and every one who votes for him should change his mind.
I really don't think he's a good thing for the USA. Your country needs something new, needs change. This guy doens't even shake Obama's hand. Shaking hand is, for me, the least he could do. I mean, even when you don't like someone, you say hello and you don't refuse to shake his hand. I guess McCain is too racist to shake a black's hand.
Geez, this 'change' cliche has gotten all the way to the other side of the world.0 -

McCain refused to shake the hand of "That One" because he's a bitter little prick who is jealous and defeated. He knows he will never be President and It fills him with rage.
McCain is an absolute disgrace to American Politics. He's run a shameful campaign which is thankfully on it's last legs.
He's a running joke with no solution.
He should just go back to Arizona and live out the remainder of his foul bitter life alongside his pill popping beer heiress of a wife and stop wasting America's time.0 -

I know, I'm just saying both Obama and McCain looked to have gotten distracted and just never finished through on the handshake. There were a lot of people around and they were both kinda preoccupied. I don't even think McCain intentionally didn't shake his hand.
When I said they've shaken hands many times before, I just mean why would he suddenly refuse now? Just cause he's quickly falling behind in the polls? He's not stupid enough to do that.
But yeah, I'm certainly not arguing that McCain is a jackass and would make a shit president0 -
He was the one who tapped Obama on his shoulder to say hello (AGAIN). You all need to calm down. McCain's not racist. They also shook hands and were in the moderator's way after the debate.
Please.... grow up.0 -

Not saying he was racist with the handshake and *this one* business just plain RUDE! No manners at all.

I also found the use of the word "other" in the fourth paragraph of this article to be interesting. Coincidental, maybe. But definitely interesting.
Oh yeah, this was written in 2000.0 -

I think it's in Obama's fans best interest to not act as though a comment like "this one", in which McCain was comparing voting records, is worthy of even a "racist" agrument. If they keep this up, people are going to get turned off because they know that McCain is not and was not being racist.
THis type of garbage takes people's attention away from the issues. And given the economy, Obama wants to keep attention on issues. This type of slander only helps McCain.0 -

hive five, down low, side to side, double up, oh yeah!
probably not, but maybe Obama can get McCain to give it to a Todd Quinlin "air five""Music, for me, was fucking heroin." eV (nothing Ed has said is more true for me personally than this quote)

i didnt see him not shake his hand. in fact when tom B. was saying you are in my way and i cant see my script, they were hugging and talking.
at the end, it was Obama that took his hand away from McCains to shake the hand of Cindy. then Mccain took his hand away. thats what i saw.

McCain was using those old Republican tactics of fear mongering and questioning patriotism in last nights debate.
Obama would give his proposed solutions to the financial crisis and McCain would say stuff like, "Americans are the greates work force out there, we can do this we are Americans" not really offering solutions.
According to McCain anyone who opposes/questions the war in Iraq is unpatriotic or naive, or just doesn't get it.
I wish the voting public would see that beyond his attempt at getting folks all rilled up about being 'American' is the promise of no hope.0 -

Or a "terrorist fist bump"...
That would be amazing.All the rusted signs, we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiny ones instead...

McCain needs to be playing BINGO instead of trying to run the country.
True story.So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
