Why would McCain want to announce the VEEP on his b-day

And remind everyone once again of his advancing age AND of this "let them eat cake" shot during Katrina?



Jeez, how clueless can you get! I wonder what genius in the McCain camp thought of that stunt.

I want it to kick HARD - horrific scenes from Katrina, one after the other, then party pics with Bush. Fuck him.

I hope the campaign takes note-

:kick:

Maybe one of our talented DUers can fix something up on the youtubes internets tubes?

if I COULD I would do the commercial myself

Obama's team should use that pic in an ad. Split screen - McCain and Shrub eating birthday cake vs. people dying in the Superdome.

They could do a "where were you that day" ad.

Where were you? If you were like most Americans you were glued to your TV sets praying for our beloved New Orleans, contacting relatives to make sure they were ok... or even evacuating your home to escape the rising flood waters...

Where was President Bush and John McCain? Eating birthday cake!!!

They were NOT talking to Louisiana officials about how to handle the disaster. They were not diverting our already overstretched National Guard to New Orleans to assist with rescues and maintain the peace. They were not working with FEMA to coordinate aid.

Maybe top it off with Kayne: "Bush doesn't care about black people!" - Ok, maybe that's too far...



But this has to be an ad.

YEAH! AN AD!!!

By announcing on his 72nd birthday he hopes everyone will be talking about his VP choice instead of his advancing age.

Oh wait, Republicans = easily distractible.

point! I'm so frustrated with this. No one is reminding the American people that McSame was celebrating his birthday on the same day of the Katrina disaster. And yet McSame now says that he would have acted after Katrina?!??!?! FUCKING LIAR!! But I at least expected the left to raise this issue. They aren't doing so!! :puke::puke::puke:

could be re=playing the tragedy.

there would be talk about that anyway, but he hopes that the V.P. pick will mean they'd spend LESS time on it. I don't agree with that sentiment but maybe that's what's going on in his mind

Like the men holding it, it definately needs some Viagra.

In addition to the "embrace" picture, we need to publicize the "Katrina cake" picture to show just how fucking out of touch and like Bush McCain is.

Gustav is headed for the Gulf. Current projections (which are subject to change at a moment's notice) has NoLa right dead center.

Given that absolutely nothing has changed along the Gulf Coast in the last three years and not one bit of preparedness has been improved, what are the chances of a repeat -- if not worse disaster? Gustav is already Cat I and has the whole, bathwater-warm Gulf to feed off of. Just sayin'.

I'm really sorry to hear that -- hopefully it will just be a big enough storm to knock McCain & his Veep shill on their asses and spare NOLA any more grief.

say we better spin some prayer wheels, get ready for some refugees and worry about McKook later.

...of lighting that many candles.

And he's not very smart.

:dunce:
