Go figure.


Go figure what? McCain isn’t anti-American like the Democrat candidates, and America isn’t anti-american.

Nothing more to figure out.

Yet -- and here comes the mystery -- polls also show that more Americans trust presumptive Republican nominee John McCain than either Democratic presidential candidate when it comes to handling the war in Iraq.

Well duh! Maybe it's also because many Americans know that foreign policy is more than just trying to win a grudge about who is wrong and who is right in Iraq.

Reminds me of ‘72. Most people then agreed with MCGovern about ending the war. But, damned if they were going to turn the country over to an anti-american left wing acid,amnesty etc nitwit balding hippie.

The polls are misleading not only is McCain the lesser of three evils the passion against the Iraq war is not there except within the far left of the Democrat party. Obama has a huge problem and that is because he is confusing the passion of his core supporters for the ability of him to win.

Democrats consistently do this. They assume that the negative proves the positive which is almost never the case. Just because I don’t want a polluted world doesn’t mean I want a tyrannical tax happy environmental dictator wasting resources trying to stop global warming while letting the most venerable of the world’s people starve to death. Just because I believe in civil rights doesn’t mean I want to remake the society in the motif of public gay sex extravaganzas while my kids are indoctrinated in the acceptance of the most vile behaviors. Just because I believe in charity does not mean I want to turn over even greater control of my finances to a government that has proven beyond a doubt incapable of managing the money it already has even if it could do a better job at helping people which it is fairly clear it can not.

If the alternative to war is electing a traitorous socialist party then give me war every time. Even a hundred years of war would not be too much!

I don't support McCain and don't plan to vote for him. But most Americans know Obama is simply a black Jimmy Carter with a nice smile who's ignorant about the world being a dangerous place. The larger point to be made is the Presidency isn't simply a glorified governorship. A governor can make a mistake and a state can recover. America can't recover from a mistake by a President that could cost it her existence. We barely survived Pearl Harbor. We won't survive a nuclear Pearl Harbor and that's exactly why Americans don't want to put someone who doesn't know the difference between an ally and an enemy in charge of our country during wartime.

The liberals are depressed that they could not sway the people with the lying main stream media reports about Iraq. Even the people who are against the war know that it would be a stupid to surrender as the democrats want to do.

Americans can’t stomach surrender and everybody knows that’s exactly what the Dems are trying to do (they just call it “redeployment”).
