3. She should have followed that up with why he doesn't remember what kind of car he drives.
Also, I notice McCain didn't mention that old man Hensley make his money by selling alcohol and that he didn't pass anything on to his eldest daughter.

10. So, maybe Jim Hensley knows how it is to have it tough -- McCain has no clue.
His family and upbringing were privileged. Or "blessed" as he is apparently going to use ad nauseum.

11. I'm blessed - living the American dream.
I saw a hot dame, realized she was rich, dumped my first family and married into money. I'm blessed. Did I mention her money's the result of a high school dropout's fortitude - gained on missions beating the shit out of Nazis???

12. This man is a worthless POS who is completely without honor.
Is there not one deficiency this man has that cannot be explained away by being a POW?

Let's see....

Cheated on wife - Check.
Can't remember how many homes I own - Check.
Won't support MLK Holiday - Check.

Am I missing any? I'm sure that there are more to come.


I believe the VA should immediately undertake research to validate if these sorts of anti-social behaviors can be tied to military service?

They got the Anhauser-Busch monopoly, reportedly thanks to mob ties.

16. nice change up Mcfuckwad
First you say: Obama is an elitist and out of touch
with average americans.

Then you get "caught" by your own stupidity to have 7-10 houses
and you have the gaul to run the Obama is a celebrity and
doesn't have to worry about doing a budget at the kitchen table ad..

The media questions you about the fact that you
are rich and the Obama ads (Couric didn't mention his ads)...
and you make yourself & Cindy's father out to be just plain
humble war hero victims.

WTF!!???

17. So, his expanation is that he's a kept man? That's the opportunity this great nation gave him?
Is he going to get away with mixing up his POW schtick with another man's rags to riches story and calling it his own? Miss Katie didn't even bat an eyelash over that piece of work, did she?

23. Katie is a dull tool. Note to CBS: Next time ak the war hero is it
more than seven homes? Katie if you dolts in the media would do a simple check you would see that the old man owns 11+ homes--not seven as originally reported.

24. I thought the American Dream
was to work hard and get rewarded justly for your labors to have a better life for you and your children. When did it become leave your wife and three children, whore around with a millionair heiress, then dump your old life for the new and improved version?


WTF is wrong with this guy?

25. she should have asked him about those that have had the
tables turned on them, those that have worked all their lives, those that have scraped buy to put food on their tables, not some asshole that has been in a navy family with of all things an admiral at the table. Or married to one of the largest beer distributors in the United States that will always have food and drink on their table.

Fuck him the arrogant son of a bitch, I'm beginning to hate him as much as *

33. 1 place to call home and 2 for vacations + a private plane to
transport him there; all gained by his wits, using the War Hero Act, disability(welfare) and political perks. I don't begrudge anyone having bucks if they come by it honestly, but dumping a wife and snagging a filthy rich young woman (who now indicates she has lived her life as a single mother) doesn't quite sit well.
And he's trying to indicate he pulled himself up by his hard working bootstraps and understands the struggles of the average American. The man is just not as honest a person as he pretends to be. Bad enough that he is using the corrupt Bush crazies and policies to further his grasp for personal glory; and unashamedly using the 'war hero' political crutch. He is the prime example of a user.

I'm surprised he doesn't use that experience in his campaign more!

He sure spent a lot of time not answering the question, but now everyone knows he is "blessed".

37. McCain was a POW?
Edited on Sun Aug-24-08 06:38 PM by jberryhill
Golly, who knew?

Where in Germany was he captured?

I saw that show... with Bob Crane as Hogan, although I liked Richard Dawson's character a lot.

I don't remember the episode where Sgt. Schultz made a cross in the dirt, though.

What the hell does spending years without a kitchen table or a chair, have to do with how many kitchen tables he owns now? What is he trying to make up for lost time? Can someone remind McCain that his captors didn't torture him. They used "enhanced interrogation techniques" on him.

30. Hensley was a slime ball who left his wife and family
for Cindy's mother. Hensley left his OTHER DAUGHTER only $10,000 out of his millions and left his GRANDCHILDREN NOTHING. Is "American dream" McSame is speaking of in Hensley? He is "proud" of Hensley? Guess so, the cock did the same thing leaving his wife and children for Cindy... These people are a farce and are sickening in their lies. No folks, these men did not have a little fling thing, they literally "dumped" their wives for "younger" models. Why doesn't ANYONE MENTION the ironic similarities between Hensley and McSame? Also, Cindy is NOT AN ONLY CHILD of Hensley as she keeps repeating! Outright LIES.

34. "POW" Next question?
The answer to your next question will also be "POW", but please, I'm here to take all your questions. It's the Straight Talk Express, you know.

POW. What? You didn't ask another question.

Well in case you do, the answer is "POW".

What's you plan for the economy? "I spend a few years in the Hanoi Hilton where there was no economy, so I have the greatest appreciation for a good economy."

What about the environment? "You wouldn't be asking me about the environment if you had spend a couple of nights in a bamboo cage."

What about torture? "Uhhh, my staff will get back with you on that one."

35. Let the real John McCain step forward . . ..
He never answered the question . . . why did Katie not press for an answer? He might have stumbled a bit but this would allow for all to witness his mental incapability. Was she protecting him like she did when she edited his taped speech which had a huge blunder? The media needs to let the real John McCain, the mentally fading McCain be shown in all honesty. It definitely could dictate who the people cast their vote for.

36. This is where I question Obam's strategy on debates
McCain asked for 10 of them. It should be obvious that there is nobody n the media (other than Politico I guess) who will ask any difficult questions of McCain and insist on a straight answer. The two debates may be the only opportunity to make this happen. I think it may have been wise to agree for 4 or 5 of these occasions, and a free form format where the candidates could directly question one another.
