McCain has experience. He was held as a POW, so he has military experience and Obama wants to pull out the troops from Iraq which you can't do right away because first you have to pull out all of the equipment first.........

The above is the sentiments of a co-worker....no. I don't work at an insane asylum...I work at a Post Office.....

12. Here, I copied it for you
Edited on Mon Jul-14-08 04:47 PM by VeraAgnes
since you asked.

"John McCain was in prison... JUST LIKE HITLER!"

We don't want Mccain near the Oval Office let alone pResident..yet we can not go here, insulting POW's ..to equate a POW to Hitler is a gross injustice and disrespect to all POW's....especially to compare one of our POW's to Hitler....

What is next?.....Make fun of amputees' or Traumatic Brain Injuries?

15. Are you making fun of me now?
All I am asking for is respect to our POW's. I guess if you need someone to abuse, let it be me and not a POW.

Go on, smack me around.....I give you permission in effort to protect our POW's....I know they had their turn.

I'm just saying that you've completely missed my point.

20. McCain has eaten pickles. So has Hitler. OMG! How DARE I insult
Edited on Mon Jul-14-08 10:46 PM by uppityperson
pickle eaters by comparing them to Hitler!

I know lots of people who have been in the military, and even some who were POWs, and even some who were in jail for refusing to go to Viet Nam. Don't want them for president either.

Oh good lord, just read your linked thread and am laughing. "Obama is POPULAR and INSPIRATIONAL! Just like HITLER!" Freepers are just,
something. Obama=Hitler? W.T.F?

I'm spending little time here the last bit, time for a summer, omg Iran? break. Being picky about what I read and which forums I partake in. Thanks for the link.

4. So, she voted for Clinton and all of his experience over Bush the first?
I'll bet. :-)

I love how these lifetime Democratic voters are voting against themselves for the most unbelievable reasons.

6. There is no logic to these morons....
Most people have no political education.

And if you point out the inconsistencies in their logic its almost as if you insulted their mother or something.

People don't want their stupidity exposed.
