Answer 3

Some points on McCain speech which I find confusing

- McCain stated that he would promise not to throw away tax payer money on inefficient programs. Yet he supported "No Child Left Behind" which has been a money eating program and inefficient

- McCain specifically said in his speech that he will fight against lobbyist. Does this mean  he's  going to fight the same lobbyists that really helped finance his campaign? Contradictory you think?

- McCain stated that the republicans have a proven record against lying and telling the truth to the American people and that he would continue this trend... did he forget about Bush and the Republicans lying on justifying the Iraq war, might I add the same war McCain supported! and of course we all know the outcome.. Hussein never had weapons of mass destruction which Bush, McCain and the Republicans believed he had , but instead it had million of reserves in oil.

- McCain stated he wanted to change Washington, if change is what he after how come he hasn't proven it , instead the last 8 years he has agreed 90% of the time with Bush.

- McCain "we lost there trust" "go back to old Republican fundamentals  which Lincoln , Roosevelt and Reagan built" does he know the old Republican party promoted a humble foreign policy.  If supporting useless wars and policing  the world is a humble foreign policy then surely pigs can fly cant they?

Some interesting points regarding McCain and his economic plan

- McCain stated he will fix the economy in to a striving one, but yet his position on Iraq remains the same as it is now. I can not see how he can support the Iraq war and still provide economic stimulus packages without expanding the deficit. Bottom line is the war in Iraq is hurting the United States ability to improve its economy. The Iraq war is the main reason why we are in a trillion dollar deficit and are counting on foreign nations like China and Saudi Arabia in buying our debt. Surely he should know this shouldn't he?

His position on Iraq

- McCain also stated investment in alternate fuels, but interestingly he never mentioned Global Warming, does this mean he didn't want to offend his VP Sarah Palin who does NOT believe Global Warming is man made.

- McCain and Obama's position on nuclear power are basically the same.

- "Russia rejected Democratic ideals" . Of Course, how can you expect to have effective diplomacy when Bush in the past 8 years has undermind them

- McCain quoted in his speech he would "turn a blind eye on aggression"  , does he really mean .... was the Iraq war not blind aggression? surely millions of innocent women and children counts doesn't it?

- "preventing wars"  I can't see this happening with McCain, McCain stated in his speech that he will take a aggressive position on Iran and Syria. Im sorry but aggression with these two nations will not produce rainbows and flowers

- "has record and scars to prove it, Senator Obama does not"  Does someone really need scars to be president. One of the best Presidents in history of the United States (B

Now for the ignorant Republicans he did NOT state how he was going to fund these programs. But if any rebuttal please do so because frankly I can not find one, if you are ignorant just give me the thumbs down lol

Answer 4

Answer 5

He threw them under the bus.

He kicked them all in their rears.

He knocked their current leader simply to win.  There are still 31% of Republicans who still love "W".

According to the political pundits, he borrowed quotes from 3 former DEMOCRAT presidents.

Who did he think he was fooling?

Surely not me.
