McCain: "This is not the time to point fingers"

[grantcart]

McCain takes a noble tact saying,

This is not the time to point fingers . . .

Use this instead

Ben Smith captured the pschitzophrenic presidential candidate in full form going for the old "I am bipartisan but Democrats are communists" pathos that has been missing from the campaign since the last time he spoke.

McCain: 'Not the time for blame'?

"Now is not the time to fix the blame. It's time to fix the problem," McCain says, not long after his campaign blamed Obama and Pelosi for killing the bill.

Then he blames Obama and the Democrats: "Sen. Obama and his allies in Congress infused unnecessary partisanship into the process."

1. LOL - nice try McWhackjob

[frickaline]

2. THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO POINT FINGERS! (....at me)

hahaha run, run McCain!

[TheBigotBasher]

16. This is not the time for fingers

it is time for a hangman (and normally I am against capital punsihment).

[Bucky]

3. Pot. Kettle. Black.

You can't deny the man has big balls, tho.

[jmondine]

20. Nah. I equate "balls" with bravery. Gall is not bravery,,,

No matter how much Bush and Cheney would like you to believe it is.

[BrklynLiberal]

4. Funny how the repukes only say that when all the fingers would be pointing to them....

[GalleryGod]

5. Well he could stick his up his own ARSE.

Can't wait to see Pole Dance Palin try out her Sarcasm Kitty Act in Veep Debate.:rofl:

[immoderate]

6. MCain talks out of both jowls at the same time.

--IMM

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

7. Because Paulson isn't partisan at all...

:rofl:

[ProSense]

8. Now is not the time

for taxpayers to fund this charade McCain calls a campaign.

Suspend it for good.

[Phx_Dem]

9. Erratic and insane John McCain finally speaks.

Hope he enoyed his swanky dinner Lieberman on Saturday night.

[BlueIdaho]

10. Is this the time to remind him about that old saying...

When you point a finger at someone - four are pointing back at you.

Just wondering

[tblue]

11. Then what should we point?

[grantcart]

12. No

Palin thought he meant this



and McCain was really thinking about this

[tblue]

17. Bwaaaaaaahahaha!

[EC]

13. Anytime someone says that

they know they are to blame...

[jenmito]

14. Bush used to say the same thing as did his spokespeople. It means THEY'RE the ones to blame.

:rofl:

[npk]

15. Tell McCain to stop blaming Obama, fcking bastard

More to the point he knows the fingers would be pointed at his party. His party has fucked up the country and the economy and he knows it.

[and-justice-for-all]

18. And obviously not the time for Repigs to...

take responsibility for their actions, but attempt to pin their fuck ups on to others as usual.

Repigs, never take the blame for their actions because in their narrow scope of the world, it is never their fault.

Obama and Congress did the right thing by not giving unsecured funds to Paulson, fuck McInsane and he damn cronies.

[glitch]

19. CLASSIC FAIL! woohoo, he IS a stereotype.

Poor maverick-wannabe.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

21. He forgot to mention that he's a POW - what's this world coming to?

[RNdaSilva]

22. I have a weird sense of humor...

burst out laughing when I heard him say that. Just prior to that he had been pointing fingers at Obama for the failure of the bailout.

Oh the hypocrisy of it all.


                                                            Now that's finger pointing I can agree with.

[LonelyLRLiberal]

23. You mean like the Repugs did by blaming Pelosi for pissing them off?

(their excuse for not supporting their own President's bailout request)

[Curious_Quebec2]

24. You are right Johnny boy!

It's not time to point fingers, it's time for you to take the blame!

[Vanje]

25. THATS funny! nt

[ecstatic]

26. It was odd. Very next sentence after blaming Obama and the dems

was that now is not the time to assign blame or something. :wtf: What an idiot! Guess he doesn't proof read his speeches ahead of time.

[TankLV]

27. Only the GULITY say such nonsense. This IS the time to place BLAME!

And it falls squarly only on the REPUKES!

Besides - if not NOW, - WHEN?

BTW - we're STILL waiting for the second part of the "investigation" into the LIES that started the Iraq War - when are we gonna see THAT?!?!
