1. Even a mercy fuck needs to be deserving of mercy.

3. True dat
After Bush as appointed pResident in 2000 I swore I'd never even consider voting for a republican. I plan on keeping my word...

4. I don't
But if I were McCain I'd fire everyone associated with my campaign. A friggin' German fudge shop in Ohio??? How lame can he get?

5. I don't.
What an enormous ego he must have to believe he's a contender this year. When he loses, he will never blame himself.

7. You have defined the mindset of most repukes.
Nothing is ever their fault, even in the face of indisputable proof that it is.

6. So do I, in a way
He should have been facing Gore in 2000, not LackWit. The GOP shit all over him to put the favored son up instead. And now that the favored son has fucked up the country and their party's prospects, the GOP graciously lets McCain make a fool of himself and his political career.

And McCain fought for the priviledge of being a laughingstock.

9. Very good take on the situation
He's the sacrificial lamb. The GOP knows it's chances are slim to none, so they've put McCain out there to get his ass beat. He'll be too old to run again in four years. They're just trying to regroup and they've hung McCain out to dry.

12. Why does she feel sorry for him?!
He never was qualified to be a president, even back in 2000. His temper, his ignorance, his self-assured pompous rich boy attitude would f us up even more than *!

Does she feel sorry for him because he was a POW? I do too...but I don't think he deserves to hold public office, let alone the highest in the land.

13. Because he's a befuddled old man that no one likes. The GOP
has hung him out to dry.

14. That's probably very true
but he's such a nasty person, I have trouble pitying him for what he's brought on himself. I think I better work on a kinder attitude, I guess.
