"Defeatism will not buy peace in our time. It will only lead to more bloodshed and to more American casualties in the future," said the Arizona senator in his first campaign appearance since a major staff shake-up earlier in the week.

6. You're TOAST, Honey! Give it up already!
Bush fixed your clock in 2000! You can't back him, his lies, his war, his surge, his mismanaging the war and win. Even Repuglicans are not that stupid.

:thumbsdown:
