Any one else voting on the fact that McCain can't lift his own arm over his head ?

Question

I know it seems odd, but I don't trust a guy who can't lift his arm over his own head. How is he suppose to raise the American people out of this rut we are in ?

Answer 1

I will agree that being a POW does not give you credit as a presidential candidate.  I say this because it seems that this is the main argument for McCain (war hero).  I know several "war heroes" that would agree.  How many times did you hear the story during the RNC?  Is that all he has?  He would be a good motivational speaker, with a great story, but not a presidential candidate.

Answer 2

He is a nice man and a hero.

But no thanks .

He wants to change who? Himself? Because he has been part of the white house for 26 yrs and voted for Bush's policies over 90%  of the times.

He want to work across party line but chose extreme right wing Sarah Palin?

Can't this republicans just give America a break from recession etc?

Answer 3

Your question just goes to show that there should be an intelligence test before you can vote.

Edit:  So Todd emails me privately and makes fun of my hair color. LOL  Is that the funniest thing you have ever heard?  

HA HA

They never can talk about issues.

...still laughing.

Answer 4

I lol'd especially cause you sound really serious

Answer 5

What rut is America in? The rut of killing scores of innocent human lives before birth?

An unborn human fetus is:

Human and

Life and

Innocent and

Unique in DNA

and to intentionally kill it with premeditation is by technical definition first degree murder!

In other words, our federal government funds companies who kill fire hire! (planned parenthood gets hundreds of millions of dollars every year from the federal government. Planned Parenthood is the largest single abortion provider.)

McCain and Palin ought to get us out of that rut a lot better then Hillery or Obama or Biden ever would.

I find your comment most odd (what're you high on?) that a man is somehow mentally handicapped just because his shoulder got hurt - especially when it happened on the line of duty while serving his country. I would say that as a result he knows what freedom is and what it costs. In case you didn't know, he was a fighter pilot, and he got shot down. When he ejected from his plane, both his arms and one of his legs were broken. He is a man who knows what freedom is and what it costs and is the best equipped  to keep America free.

And for your information, there are lots of people who can raise both arms over their head and  still can't think worth bananas and who have no idea what our freedom cost or what it will take to keep it.  

Answer 6

What happened to McCain is horrible and if we joke about it, then it's like joking about all the Veterans that come back from Iraq without legs and arms. That's not funny. Also I hold Bush responsible for every injured Vet. I'm not a McCain supporter either.

God bless the troops

Answer 7

I'm voting for Obama.

But I hope that you lose the use of your arms.  Calling you scum would be an insult to the tiny vegetation which cleans our ponds on a daily basis.

Answer 8

Do you make fun of people in wheel chairs too? He can't lift his arm due to injuries he received as a POW. Republicans might over emphasize that point, but that doesn't make it okay for you to make fun of his disability. It's a disgusting cheap shot, and not at all representative of the Democratic party.  

Answer 9

Yeah, you try being a POW having your arms broken and your shoulder ripped out of your socket.  

Answer 10

Todd, you're an ignorant f****. Two things possibly going on here. One, you're joking and are a complete a** wipe.  Two, you truly are THAT stupid and think the fact that he can't raise his hands over his heads because his arms were broken in Vietnam has some relevance in this election and in his leadership.  You're a moron.

Answer 11

Wow, love how compassionate you are to our P.O.W.'s?  NoT!!

My gawd...the poor man where you like him or not suffered for you and our country.  Like to see you tortured and if you would be able to endure such torture for your country the land we love??

If not anything, can you imagine how sad it is for a man who served and almost died for his country to not be able to salute the flag he loves?

Shame ...shame on you!!!!

Is this what America has come to?  People like you who poke fun at a man who pretty much almost died for the country he loved.  Whether you like him or not, you should at least respect him but sure this will fall on deaf and yes very mean ears!

Answer 12

His arms got that way because he was a war hero.

Protecting your right for the freedom to say mean hateful things like that.

Answer 13

Thank God that a president's job doesn't require carrying people physically.

A good leader needs to have wisdom character and most of all deep experience.  John McCain's experience being a POW equipped him to make sound judgement especially in tough times like this.

What does Obama have???...NOTHING!

So please, don't waste your vote.  Our country needs a true leader like John McCain.

Answer 14

He had both arms and a leg broken as he ejected from his plane in Vietnam. The Vietcong did not set the bones properly and then he was tortured for 5 years. He is lucky to have survived at all. Do you really think he's going to physically lift us up, or do you take everything to the literal extreme to make a inane point?

Answer 15

he cant raise them buz he got hurt in Nam., its kinda sad really, he broke both his arms :(

Answer 16

Your gratitude for his sacrifice on your behalf is truly touching.  

Answer 17

No.  That's the least of our problems.

He's a fascist.  That's what counts.

Answer 18

It doesn't affect my vote, let's just hope he doesn't have to do the wave at the Washington Nationals game or throw out the first pitch.

Answer 19

You are joking about his torture injuries.

Answer 20

Wow, thats really deep, you people show such depth..

Answer 21

He cannot lift his arms over his head because of the brutal and merciless beatings and torture he went through in Vietnam!!  How can you be so cold as to judge a man's ability and experience by something he has NO control over - and all that he went through in Nam for his country???  Did you know that he put his life on the line, just like ALL vets have,  just so you can have the freedom to spew out your hate??- you disgust me!!

McCain/Palin '08!!

Edit:  Mary_Alice:  Bashing Bush for ALL the injured veterans??  Are you serious??   That would mean that Bush would have had to been in the WH during WW1  and WW2, along with the Korean war, the Vietnam war, The Gulf War, etc. - and Bush is responsible for ALLLLLL those Veterans' injuries??  REALLY???  WOW!!  You're SOOOO smart - NOT!!  Bush wasn't even born yet when most of those vets were injured - nice try!!

Answer 22

Hi, troll.  Yeah, bashing McCain for an injury he sustained as a POW.  Like any Dem would do that; of course it would only make Dems look bad.

How many versions of this do you have?  That's at least two.

Answer 23

Now Todd, you can't be that uninformed.

Everyone who is involved with this election knows McCain can't lift his arms because the VC broke his arms in the POW camp and they didn't heal properly. Why would you say such a mean thing?

Answer 24

My Friend, why does he have alligator arms?

Answer 25

we don't need to resort to republican nastyness
