So if you question the economy you're insulting American workers?

[11 Bravo]

That's Grandpa McSame's feeble attempt to scramble away from his incredibly ignorant comments of Monday. When he said the "fundamentals of our economy are strong", he meant that American working men and women are strong, and anyone who says otherwise hates the work force. Just like pointing out that Iraq was a mistake means you hate the troops. Could these jackasses be any more predictable?

1. That was a stupid come back.

Just totally unbelievable.

2. I guess the hurting workers are self-haters.

4. Beyond pathetic. nt.

5. That's right. If you question our economy, it's an insult to all American workers!

Ignore the fact that the Republicans have been busy sending our jobs overseas for the past 8 years.

No insult in that, is there?

F*ck these people!

It's all a diversion...they have nothing to show for the last 8 years...just job loss, deficit, runaway spending, lies, corruption, torture, spying, outing of CIA agents...so they have to divert attention from their record to a bunch of crap that no one really cares about.

17. You forgot to add "Thermonuclear Financial Market Meltdown"

:nuke:

6. And as if the "ingenuity" of "American workers" can bring back jobs to America.

Yeah, McCain just luuurrrves the "American worker". Not unions, though, or the minimum wage, or the currently-untaxed employer-provided health-care.
Just the "worker".

7. This particularly jarring flip-flop happened between Jacksonville

and Orlando yesterday morning.. The tone of the two campaign stops could NOT have been more different... You should try to watch them back to back if you can find them...

8. I'm getting dizzy from McCain's spin

When someone says "the fundamentals are strong", they of course are referring to things like consumer confidence, the budget deficit, inflation, unemployment, etc.

But somehow McCain spins "fundamentals" to mean "the American worker". So now if you say the fundamentals are weak, you are against the American worker.... Kind of like when we were told if you are against the war in Iraq, you are against the soldiers. :eyes:

10. So McCain blames this whole mess on the American worker ???

If we were Republicans, that's how the talking points would be twisted.

Instead we can speak truth and point out that McCain clearly has no grasp of the fundamentals of this situation.

[H2O Man]

11. Yes.

Luckily for the working class, Senator John McMarx (R-Az) is using his GumBoat X-Press to speak for the liitle people.

[barack the house]

12. Even if that were true it's still ignoring those fundamentals are hurting under their polcy.

[ITsec]

13. Just like if you question our Government's actions... you "hate America" (n/t)

[11 Bravo]

16. Bingo! (Damn, how could I have forgotten the original wingnut talking point?)

[Peacetrain]

14. Was that not the saddest flip flop you have ever seen! NT

[Hope And Change]

15. Someone should ask McCain why he voted to let companies get tax breaks...

that ships jobs overseas.

[BadgerKid]

19. It reads like a controlling behavior and/or uncomfortableness. n/t

20. RE: So if you question the economy you're insulting American workers?

Does this mean American workers were to blame for the Great Depression.

[Virginia Dare]

21. Somebody had a great post with all of his comments today..

about government regulation vs. deregulation, it's a feaking mess, he's all over the place. I guess he figures if he throws enough comments out there it'll get so garbled he can deny anything that makes him look bad and take credit for anything good....:shrug:

The scary thing is that this country is so full of idiots and racists that he's still actually polling even with obama, even with this train wreck of a campaign.
