And John tried to have the whistle-blower put in jail. Niiiiice.

By your same standards Barak Obama is a drug addict too subby or haven't you read his books. He didn't steal his from his charities, but he's still an addict if you are grouping them that way. Judging by the linked article his confessing them in his books is a ploy to get political sympathy for his career too.

Wow, dug back to 1999 for that article, and it gets a green light. Nothing like old news, eh, Admins?

First, this is an article dated Oct. 18, 1999. This has been known for awhile now.

Second, John McCain's wife's actions have nothing to do with his capabilities to be President. Don't do that. Leave it alone. If you want to criticize his actions about the whistleblower or issued press releases- fine; but don't bring his family into it. It's irrelevant and stupid. She had a problem. That's not our business.

Third, go Obama.

The Wright controversy was dug up from 2003, seemed to get plenty of greenlights.

She's got a problem. She dealt with it. Leave her alone.

This is how you diffuse a potential problem. You admit it, honestly, and move on.

Tell me I'm wrong.

/not wrong

This article was from 1999, but I understand. I don't even like McCain and I think this is pretty weak, but it's probably been like an hour since someone got to green light a McCain-bashing headline.

1999?

 
Gunny Highway 2008-06-15 12:25:05 PM  
Good thing she isnt running for president. And is the author criticizing McCain for getting the story out to the public immediately? I think that is a good thing. Why would he let the media take a mistake made by his wife hurt his career?

I know alot of people with problems with pain killers and this story sounds about right. I hope making such a stupid mistake helped her kick the habit because that shiat can ruin you.

 
CtrlAltDelete [TotalFark] 2008-06-15 12:27:31 PM  
Ron Paul Revere: That's the part of the story that's completely, totally relevant, and a very good indicator of what to expect from McCain.

Perhaps; but the way the headline (and the article) is worded, folks aren't going to focus on that point- they're going to talk about his wife and her past drug problem. This doesn't help anyone. Not Obama supporters, not McCain, not anybody. It's just going to hurt somebody that already admitted a mistake and moved on.

 
SockMonkeyHolocaust 2008-06-15 12:31:31 PM  
Yeah, well... Obama sounds like "Osama" and that other part of his name: Hussein? Yeah, do you know who else was named Hussein? A little Islamo-fascist dictator named "Saddam Hussein" who sought to destroy the United States and our freedom loving ways. Think about it.

 
robsul82 [TotalFark] 2008-06-15 12:32:51 PM  
Hey, it's a great trump card to have if and when the GOP attacks Michelle...which they will. Besides, NOT "everyone already knows this story." Cindy's negatives would be a shiatload higher if "everyone already knew" she was a pillpopper, let alone Cindy and John's charming How We Met story.

 
thamike 2008-06-15 12:33:20 PM  
I wonder if that was the first time she was proud to be an American.

I recommend not bashing Cindy because of her addictions. Remember Betty Ford?

I'm not voting for McCain and Republican overall because of the issues and the Republican Party's dismal record in running the country the last 7.5 years.

/GOP sucks.

I was paid pretty decent money to make an attack ad like that except it was informing people that Obama supported a church that espoused black nationalism.

Come on, man. We're better than this. Nobody should even give a sh*t how she's polling. She's not running for anything. If people are going to vote for a person or not vote for a person because of how they feel about the person's spouse (including Hillary Clinton), then that person is illogical; unreachable; only persuaded by stupid sh*t that doesn't really mean anything in the end.

They are the political equivalent to the live audience at a Jerry Springer show.

The Dems and the GOP should focus on educating them; not manipulating them into swinging their necks back and forth and spewing 'oh no you di'int!' at the other guy.

 
Stoj [TotalFark] 2008-06-15 12:40:39 PM  
Obama's wife referred to "crackers" back in 1988 in a conversation with her friends. They were debating what went best with cheese.

Haha man, let me just warn the GOP now. I am firing up the GIMP now and I will not stop photoshopping words onto pictures of Cindy McCaine until their chances for election are obliterated in November.

Poor thing. You'd do Percocet too if you had to fark John McCain on a regular basis.

CtrlAltDelete [TotalFark] 2008-06-15 12:47:06 PM  
To put it another way, this isn't a Trump Card if they attack Michelle for one simple reason:

If a Republican says "Michelle Obama blah blah EVIL because blah blah blah I read it on the internets!"

The correct answer is NOT "Well, Cindy McCain was a druggy. She even admitted it. Look, here's a tape of the press conference."

The correct response is "For what office is Michelle running?"

Either we debate this sh*t intelligently or we don't.

We can't have it both ways.

Everyone.

I'm not alone in this though. Its part of being an artist. You look at everything and think about how you would draw it. Now you understand why artists are so weird.

On the plus side you do see beauty where other people don't. A really large woman naked is a wonderful thing to an artist.
