Yes he was tortured, (something his sole mate Bush is all about), but the fact that he then made 35 propaganda films in cooperation with the NVA totally refutes the arguments like:

"If the North Vietnamese could not break him... yada yada yada"

Well guess what, they did break him.

It also shows how worthless torture is a means of gathering intelligence. Anyone would say anything to make the torture stop! The secret about torture is EVERYONE BREAKS eventually and will tell his/her tormentors anything they want to hear.

Most people don't know that he cooperated with the enemy. While it should not be held against him, it sure as hell should not be withheld from the American people especially when they are being lied to and told "he did not break"!

If he has a higher character he did not show it in Vietnam.

most of the rightwing fundamentalist freaks (read, republicans) wanted Palin on the top of the ticket and McSame as the VP candidate.

Only problem is by completely selling out to the "extra chromosome" repuglican base they have alienated everyone else. The fact is the repug base is a small minority of the population.... Thank God!

But they sure loved them when they were digging dirt on Edwards.

I think they need to have their hypocrisy algorithm tuned down a bit.

..the beat goes on.

Obviously they knew all about this because of the thorough vetting they did on her before offering her the VP spot behind a cancerous septigenarian.

To do otherwise would be the height of irresponsibility.

Right trollbots?

sure as hell are relevant and important because of whom she claims to be and why the repuglicans say you should vote for her.

-The story about her unwed, underage pregnant daughter is relevant because president Palin would force "abstinence only" education on our children. It has been shown not to work, the right wing disputes that. Her daughter's predicament is extremely relevant because it proves what a bunch a baloney Palin's plans for sex education are and why no one should vote for her.

-The story about her extramarital affairs are relevant because she claims to be of the highest moral fiber, evidently much higher and holier than any democrat. If she promotes herself as one thing in public but practices a different way a life that is relevant and news worthy.

If the repuglicans base their campaign on their claims that they occupy a higher moral plane than their opponents and not issues then they make their moral conduct an issue, not their opponents.

Hypocrisy is news.

And finally, stop playing that "stop picking on Brittney" bullcrap. She's a self described "pitbull with lipstick", she hopes to win by spreading lies and attacking the integrity of her opponents.

She can take it, and if you take her at her word, she wants it.

stop picking on our pitbull! How dare you look into her past and find the truth.

Go pit bull, spread lies, divide the country, we love you.

you trollbots are and endless source of entertainment.

you forgot the one about her daughter wearing the "drill here, drill now" tee-shirt.

That's just going too far.

... more to come.

On the "Trollbot meter" which measures the damage done to repug wing-nuts when they are unable to answer simple, relevant and unscreened questions by counting the concentration and bizarreness of the trollbot's posts, I'd say the McSame interview on the big bad View scored about a 8 out of 10.

(a 10/10 would be five minutes of uncomfortable silence and shaking followed by the wing-nut melting into a puddle of viscous black fluid on the floor.)

Thank you trollbots for providing this valuable service.

P.S.:(Elephantboy! where are you? Are your fellow Elephantboys mad at you for losing the election for them? Come out of hiding... your safe here, Bush is the only one reading your emails that knows where you live.)

The McSame campaign wants to lock her in a closet.

The View needs to lay down the gauntlet and dare the "pit-bull with lipstick", who is ready to smack down Puten like a poodle, to come onto their show for a cup of coffee and a few straight questions.

If Palin remains locked in the closet then they should start a countdown for how many days Palin has avoided the so-called light weights on the View.... just like faux.

heyas too much of an elitist.

(Sorry, watching too late night cartoons. And in a creepy way reality seems to be following my favorite cartoons, the more ridiculous they attempt to be the more reality mimics them.)

... is running for the apron stings of his right wing sugar mommy the WSUrinal because that big, bad Democrat gave him a small taste of his own medicine.

Do you think he popped some pills over this... he has a bad back you know.

Too funny

"something into the letter body"

There, Happy now?

Wedge issues will lose their potency when people's fear and anger toward those who are different fades.

The last time I checked bigotry and superstition are alive and well.

Do not underestimate how effective these wedge issues are and will always be for those willing to stoop low enough to win at any cost.

We need to be diligent and hit back hard against these tactics. Never take wedge politics lightly.

McCain is backing out of the first (perhaps all) of the debates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Utterly unbelievable! They are so sure Obama will wipe the floor with him they are just refusing to have the debate at all.

Is this the final straw for the McCain campaign??????

Talk about a big FU to the American voter.

I've been very careful about writing McCain off after his many gaffs and episodes of bad judgment and odd behavior... but now I'm going to have to officially place McCain on the campaign implosion watch.

...fixing popcorn now.
