Mentioning John McCain and war hero in the same sentence is an oxymoron. Since I was shot down twice in Vietnam, I did at one time respect McCain until I started checking with those who spent time with him in North Vietnam. His nickname was "Songbird". McCain didn't volunteer to be a POW and he didn't begin to comply with Article III of the United States Code of Conduct after being captured. What he did do was sing like a songbird and whine day and night about being abandoned. This old guy is not bitter at the North Vietnamese, he's mad as hell at Americans for leaving him in the POW camp for five years while they listened to psychedelic music, wore flowers in their hair, and partied. McCain, like his mentor Bush, will sell our country to the highest bidder, and that bidder will be the United Arab Emirates.



I'm a registered Republican. I ran for a seat in the US Senate in 1992. I've been campaigning against the George H.W. Bush gang since 1976, and I know what I'm talking about. Neither Messrs. Gore nor Kerry would listen. They said that George W. Bush was a nice guy while knowing all the time he was a habitual lying, bowlegged moron. I told Mr. Kerry three days before the election that he was going to lose because he had not gone for the jugular. He not only let Bush push him around, he brushed off the Swift Boat puppets as if their painting him a coward wouldn't matter to voters…the same voters Bush and Cheney had been reading Chicken Little to day and night since 1999.

Democrats had better remember what these demons from hell did to Max Cleland and tried to do to John Murtha. I believe it’s time they harvested this crop of thorns they have so mercilessly sown. I don't know what you are going to do, but I'm going to feed this bunch who have disgraced our country and devalued our dollar some of their own medicine; and I'm not going to use a spoon, I'm going to use a shovel.

God and country means nothing to these warmongering sociopaths in the Republican Party. They would sponsor Robert Mugabe if they thought he could win the Oval Office. Their reason has nothing to do with building a country that can legitimately claim "we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal". Equality is not on their to-do list. I've witnessed first hand the George H.W. Bush list that he compiled in 1976 after being appointed the Director of the CIA. It was a short list, but one that has not only turned this country, but the world every which way but loose.

1. Control of the US media.

2. Control of the US Supreme Court and federal judges.

3. Give US Treasury ATM cards to family and corporate sponsors.

Democrats have two choices. One: You can go on the offense and paint McCain as a dangerous hotheaded old fool who's eaten up with PTSD and will push the world into WWIII. Two: You can play fair as Gore and Kerry tried to do and this bunch of ungodly self-serving leeches will wipe their feet on Mr. Barack Obama and his family, destroying possibly our country's last chance to come out of this death spiral.
