McCain 05/15/2008 Speech - Illegal Immigration Solved

Interesting that Cindy McCain has refused to release her tax returns. An editorial in The Washington Times (May 14, 2008), "Cindy McCain's 'privacy' charade" sums it up well. Next to this editorial is a cartoon by Garner:
Reporter: Mrs. McCain, don't you owe it to the public to divulge your income?"
Cindy: Let 'em drink beer!

[1rudeboy]

Yeah, I don't see it as being very likely that the poster just missed the part where McCain states he's speaking of the future. And if you think about it, it doesn't even make sense that McCain would claim that our "southern border is now secure." If it is, then what was the purpose of McCain/Kennedy?

So it was either a trolling attempt (and a bad one at that), or a serious mental malfunction.

Reporter: Mrs. McCain, don't you owe it to the public to divulge your income?”

Comment:

If she filed separately from John then I see no need to view her private documents.

Let them drink beer would make a good tag line if I drank beer more than once a month.

Yes. I admit it. I fall upon my sword. I guess I just have a hair trigger when it comes to McCain and the immigration issue.I had walked into the room just as he talking about the excerpt above and I went apoplexic. I did not realize he was stating that was his vision. A thousand pardons.

I don’t want to keep drilling this in the ground but you keep hanging more rope out there for yourself. You had to go out on the net and search the text of his speach out. You had to scan down to the portion you remembered. You had to cut and paste it into a thread.

You weren’t careless, you were dishonest. That’s what you should be apologizing for.

[The Toll]

I was not fooled at all by the post. I already know McCain’s talking point, slight of hand nonsence, word for word. The man has been saying the same line the entire time.
He wants to pass amnesty the very minute the border governors give him the political cover to do so.

[Dante3]

There are many reasons she should file unless, of course, has something to hide. The editorial spells them out, such has her directly benefiting form husband's tax policies.

Freepers, including me, wanted Kerry's wife to release her tax returns and eventually she did some of them. I do not recall anyone arguing that she should not.

[jennyjenny]

And wasted no time in doing so based on the posting time.

[OKIEDOC]

I'm still waiting for John I Served In Vietnam Kerry to release his records,but alas my beard is growing gray from all the waiting.

[Dante3]

Exactly. No wonder some people are reminded of the Manchurian Candidate whenever his name is mentioned.

[ktime]

>>>You weren’t careless, you were dishonest. That’s what you should be apologizing for.

No need for personal attacks.

I admitted I screwed up. I did a quick search for part about immigration and had not read the entire speech.

I would be careful about who you call ‘dishonest’ publicly. I am sure you have made mistakes in your live as well.

[longtermmemmory]

Border state governors have certified and the American people recognize that after tremendous improvements to border security infrastructure and increases in the border patrol, and vigorous prosecution of companies that employ illegal aliens, our southern border is now secure.


McCain thinks voters are fools. McCain thinks he can fool everyone because he is McCain (see "do you know who I am?") Height of arrogance.

[Haddit]

I’m with you ktime, I glance thru an article to get to the meat of the story. To me the meat of the story is illegal immigration and I didn’t notice that this was a fantasy of McCain.

I hear they're looking for volunteers down at the DNC.

Casting stones again, are we? 

[GulfBreeze]

It wasn’t personal.

[Dante3]

Kerry must have something to hide. Why else refuse to release them?

[GulfBreeze]

Maybe a little. I can get as heated up as anyone. Not that I need a lecture from you on casting stones.

[JoJo Gunn]

Not that I need a lecture from you on casting stones.

Well, I couldn't call pointing out one of the loudest and disingenuous McCain operatives on the Freep "casting stones".

How about hypocrisy detection?

*snort* 

[GulfBreeze]

I see your grasp of English is still tenuous at best. Good luck with that. ;-D
