Let's Go Negative on McCain

[Livingston]

Since the media isn't doing it, I'd like to see what all we can come up with between now and Nov. 4th.
Keep it to only one point per post so everyone can take a turn. Also, you have to supply supporting documentation. No fiction please.

I'll start. McCain gratuated at 894th out of 899 (5th from bottom) in his class at the Naval Academy. Barely passing. A "D" student. Bush 43 was a "C". Isn't it about time we brought our "A" game onto the playing field?

Supporting evidence from his own mouth.

You know, all that crap they gave you about your screwups being on "your permanent record" and it turns out it doesn't matter.

D Student? You can be President, IF you are a Republican.

Blowing up frogs? No Problem! (whoops, wrong Republican)

How about: McCain, who used to have excellent positions on many issues (environmental and river issues especially) but gave them all up to pander to the worst elements of the Right Wing.

He was RIGHT about tax cuts.
He was right about porkbarrel spending.

And now he is flat out wrong.

McSame cracks me up. He has tried very hard to portray Obama as an "elitist," yet he's a multimillionaire himself...AND he doesn't even know how many houses he owns!! No shit, he said in response to the question posed by a reporter: "I think — I'll have my staff get to you. It's condominiums where — I'll have them get to you."

Apparently someone should tell him he has SEVEN HOUSES. So much for relating to "Bubba" and his variable rate mortgage....

All of McCain's seven houses smell like old people. My reference is poor, but there's no doubt that if you step foot in any one of those houses, the odor would knock you over.

Lost 5 aircraft (4 in peace time). One flying to a football game, another by flying into powerlines. Sounds like one was definitely not his fault, perhaps even four to be fair.

Does every Vet get 1.4 medals per hour? Or is this just reserved for Admiral's kids?

Same link as above, scroll to the bottom.

As much as I dislike McCain, I see another "Swiftboating" episode as bad for America. It's easy enough to go after his record and his cluelessness.

Wow, you're kidding, right? Your high school analogy is pretty silly. McCain is obviously not very smart (bottom of his class), and is obviously a pretty greedy guy. Seven houses, and he doesn't even know how many he has? C'mon!

I used to respect McCain back when he was the "maverick" he still foolishly claims to be. When the Repubs controlled both houses of Congress and the White House, McCain would make token gestures of "maverickness," only to back down when the party bosses said, "Johnny, yer gonna lose that committee chairmanship if you don't kiss Shrub's skanky ass." And he would immediately toe the party line.

McCain is a dumbass with anger-management issues. Oh, and he's too old and spaced out to be the president of the United States.

Finally, did you catch the video of him jabbering at the Sturgis rally? There he was on stage with his prissy, gazillionaire wife acting like he could relate for half a second to a bunch of drunk bikers. It was classic failed pandering. He looked as stupid as Dukakis riding around in a tank.
