This is why people hate politics
How can McCain and his campaign be so mean and hateful to Obama. Running a very negative campaign against him.
And then when he's together with him, he acts like he loves and respects him so much.

Look at these pics. They are disgusting









Obama is a classy guy. Because I would of pushed McCain's ass down that hill

1. Because I would of pushed McCain's ass down that hill
And as soon as McCain healed he would be President. So what did you accomplish?

16. McCain is so white...
...that if you ran a needle over him "Back In The U.S.S.R.," "Dear Prudence," "Glass Onion" and more would begin playing.

4. You know...I used to hate politics.
2004 was my first year voting for president and I'm 38 years old. I never voted because it all seemed like a predetermined popularity contest.

Pictures like this do not phase me. These guys are members of a very small club. I don't believe any of the senators "hate" each other. They understand that presidential elections are a special kind of kabuki for we the voters.

11. I have to agree with you. When McCain made that awful joke
about Chelsea Clinton, if I was Hillary I would NEVER say he was a friend of mine. A lot of these people are just plain weird, on both sides.

19. Very astute observation.
And BTW, I voted in 1992, and have sat it out ever since then for much the same reasons.

But this is a big one, and I can't "sit it out".

5. I know this is shallow, but...
For all that money (and I know it's Cindy's, but...) why does McBush's suit look so cheap and not fit him right?

I mean honestly, Cin' – if you want to be First Bitch, you need to dress yo' man so he's fly!

And even if we know they're there, NO ONE is looking at the Feragamo loafers.

10. PLEASE DO NOT COMPARE MCSHAME TO YODA

I consider it a religious slur.

12. Our eldery, senile, and less capable people deserve our love and compassion.
Sure, they may go off on wild incoherent rants, or have a worldview that doesn't quite match reality, but we still have to take care of them, and help and guide them, because that's the right thing to do.

:evilgrin:

13. People commented that on the walk back, Cindy got put in between them as a buffer.
Methinks McCain couldn't take the whole acting like things were cool and he probably didn't like how much shorter he appeared next to Obama. Plus, the difference in how Presidential they are is way too apparent when they're next to each other.

15. He can't look him in the eye
but I guess that is a long way to look up to for mcsame.

I noticed the same thing at the forum tonight. mcsame couldn't look Barack in the eye and ran off the stage. I know he is embarrassed and ashame in what he is doing, but it isn't his campaign its rove and he must do as he is told to win.

Pathetic, Old Man!

20. Let's be fair: McCain is a skin cancer survivor; we can't expect him to look like his leathery wife.
By the way, why IS Cindy there?

21. Oh but he didn't ......
It was clear all day that John wanted nothing to do with him. Did you catch the hug-diss at the forum tonight? Barack TRIED to hug him and John locked his arms and broke away.

Come on John! Everyone loves an Obama hug!!!!

22. Yeah, I'm thinking a little hip-check over those orange-and-white barriers ...
... would have been well-deserved.
