Brutal and stunning anti-McCain video, put together in February by a Ron Paul supporter: http://www.jedreport.com/2008/06/brutal.html Discussion starting at 6:20 Reporter: “Why did you say that?” McCain: “I’m sure for all the wrong reasons.” Reporter: “And those wrong reasons would be?” McCain: “For ambition.” Reporter “For ambition?” McCain: “Sure.” In other words, for the sake of […]
It was a shameful thing to ask men to suffer and die, to persevere through god-awful afflictions and heartache, to endure the dehumanizing experiences that are unavoidable in combat, for a cause that the country wouldn’t support over time and that our leaders so wrongly believed could be achieved at a smaller cost than our […]

It is difficult to understand why any Clinton supporters would declare that they will vote for McCain in the general election. Yes, I know they are spiteful and out for revenge, but still, can any one who claims to have even the slightest feminist tendencies seriously believe that McCain would be a better second choice […]

McCain has been losing campaign staff left and right since he decided he needed to get rid of all (current) lobbyists from his staff, but I’m not sure that the new replacements are any better.

The following photo from a previous trip to Iraq shows McCain walking around a market, wearing a bullet-proof vest, accompanied by 100 American soldiers, three Blackhawk helicopters, and two Apache gunships: But where are the photos from his most recent trip last week?

This week, McCain claimed that troop levels in Iraq had been “drawn down to pre-surge levels”. He also claimed that Mosul was “quiet”. Unfortunately, neither of these is true. Before the surge, there were 128,569 troops in Iraq, and there are currently around 155,000, and news reports are calling Mosul the “last urban bastion of […]
