McCain: Bald Faced Liar On GI Bill (video)
Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 03:38 PM by Hope And Change
McCain Takes Credit For GI Bill He Opposed

"I'm happy to tell you that we probably agreed to an increase in educational benefits for our veterans that not only gives them that gives them an increase in their educational benefits, but if they stay in for a certain amount of time than they can transfer those educational benefits to their spouses and or children. That's a very important aspect I think of incentivizing people of staying in the military."

6. Suggestion: this needs more attantion, maybe a subject line change?
I tend to be a little more "in your face," than others, but:

"McCain: bald faced liar on GI Bill (video)" would be better--this needs to get out all over the place.

If you don't want to, mind if I start a new thread? I won't without your okay.

Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 04:01 PM by blondeatlast
senator who didn't show up was Edward Kennedy; who has a very valid excuse.

That means Obama and Clinton were there and on record; McSame chickened out AGAIN (as he frequently does on votes that could hurt him with independents).

20. K&R - MSM Is Giving McCain A Free Pass
I am not hearing squat on this. John McCain attacks this bill at every opportunity, lacks the marbles to show up for the vote, then runs out and claims credit for how "we" passed this GI Bill. This alone should doom his Presidency, because it just paints him as a weak assed calculating opportunist.

23. You'd think this would damn him, but I'll give him this--he had the smarts to do it on a Friday.
God forbid any journalist should break a sweat before a weekend. :mad:
