Date: August 14th, 2018 8:01 PM Author: Brilliant crotch rehab remember when that mr. potatohead-looking agitator john lewis made some catty bitchy remarks about mccain's campaign being "racist" against obama, and mccain reacted like a genuflecting apologetic cuck? apparently lewis and mccain had supposedly been "friends," and mccain even had his kids visit lewis to learn about "civil rights history," and instead of calling out lewis for betrayal, mccain just cried about it. what a pathetic "man."
anyway, that was one of many clownish episodes from that whole campaign. |

Date: August 14th, 2018 8:23 PM Author: Brilliant crotch rehab i don't think she was as dumb as her reputation, but she was very parochial and didn't have a very wide view of things beyond her little fiefdom. she kept getting tripped up by things she didn't know anything about. not that she couldn't have learned, but at that point, she simply didn't know.
also, another hilarious moment - john mccain at the GOP convention awkwardly meeting levi johnson, the sperm donor for her unmarried dotter's baby. |
|
Date: August 14th, 2018 8:30 PM Author: beady-eyed blue depressive Then and in all instances since then it's been abundantly clear she's dumb as fuck, and McCain is scum for bringing her to national prominence and being willing to have her a cancerous old MAF heartbeat away from the POTUSy.
McCain is a horrible dishonorable person who only cares about himself |
|
Date: August 14th, 2018 9:31 PM Author: cordovan tank He's actually expressed a lot of regret (I think it was in one of his books) over his decision to choose palin as his VP instead of Lieberman - and other books by campaign staff detailing the campaign talked about how there was a pretty heated split between his top staff over whether to choose Palin or not. One faction thought she was basically dumb and inexperienced, and that they did not have enough time to properly vet her at all. The other faction saw that Obama was so heavily favored basically being Elvis as a politician in 2008 combined with a just-crashed economy from a republican administration - that they basically had to just throw a hail mary and Palin was their best shot at firing up the base.
I think saying McCain is a horrible an dishonorable person that only cares about himself may be a bit harsh (I mean he chose to stay in a Hanoi prison camp rather than receiving special treatment - and was seriously tortured after that decision - I mean that may be insane but that's hardly dishonorable)
He has expressed remorse - but personally I agree that was fucked up to choose Palin to be a 71 year old heartbeat's away from being the President.
Thinking about this I'm starting to remember just how great and entertaining the 2008 election was - we forget b/c obviously 2016 overshadows it - but holy fuck the 2008 Democratic primary was great. |

Date: August 14th, 2018 8:51 PM Author: erotic cruise ship electric furnace you'd think so but the one that always blows my mind is Obama mocking Romney in the debate like "the 80s wants its foreign policy back" or whatever when Mitt said Russia is our #1 geopolitical enemy.

Date: August 14th, 2018 9:45 PM Author: cordovan tank It was basically a running joke to them for weeks after he said it.
"The 1980's called and asked for their foreign policy back" *eruption of quinoa farts and smug laughter from liberals everywhere*
The 1980's didn't call and ask for their foreign policy back, the 2k-teens called from the future and said here's what your foreign policy will be.
Obama gave the politician's answer and berated Romney for giving the literal policy answer. "What's the biggest geo-political threat facing America" - Obama's answer was geared towards politics and headlines. Romney gave the answer as thinking of what could be an existential threat to America - not what could damage me politically over the next term. |
