John McCain is an Honorable Man

He embraces those he once denounced as “agents of intolerance” as the new leaders of his base –
But John McCain is an “Honorable Man.”

Smear merchants whom he called monsters for their whisper campaign labeling his wife drug addict and his adopted daughter the result of his miscegenous affairs, he has now hired to run his own campaign --

But John McCain is an “Honorable Man.”

The Senator who has called for action on Global Warming, Government accountability and the end to corrupting “ear-mark” pork projects has now picked as his running-mate a Governor who denies Global Warming, known for abuse of power and is the nation's pork-project Queen.

But John McCain is an “Honorable Man.”

He uses an effort to protect young children from sexual predators to accuse his opponent of a “sex-ed at 5 yrs” education plan.

He’d rather embroil his lady running mate is phony charges about sexism and her being a pig than answer question about the absurdity of calling his economic program a plan for “change.”

In his lust for power he has abandoned any of his avowed concerns environmental protection, ethics in government, the torture of prisoners, or social justice and launched a campaign now widely described as a “dirty,” “reckless,” and a “blizzard of lies.”

It’s time to stop the pretence, and for all our progressive leaders and talkers to call-out John McCain the Con-Man that he is.

2. I agree. Obama will lose unless he stops referring to McCain as once having "honor"
They should be calling him a "liar" and a "dishonorable liar" and also "a liar."

12. Obama should say that the patriot that served in Vietnam is dead now. This John McCain is a shallow,
angry and miserable liar. A liar, yes, John McCain is a liar.

8. He used to be a semi-honorable man. This guy has a long history
Edited on Fri Sep-12-08 05:34 PM by ChimpersMcSmirkers
of getting into bed with the wrong people. Keating5, the lobbyist running his campaign, and an assorted cast of characters including a special appearance by the the play-boy, thief dude in Europe.

10. Obama needs to stop campaigning for McCain
He should never say anything nice about McCain when McCain is beating him up. It looks weak and pathetic.

Obama should tell the truth. McCain is nothing more than a puppet of Bush's handlers.

11. Kerry began it by CONTRASTING the old Senator with the power-hungry CANDIDATE. Time to push this
to the disheartening conclusion it has reached.

13. I've had the same thought for some time
Edited on Sat Sep-13-08 12:19 PM by andym
But you need to start off with how honorably he served as a POW and then go into the attack.
Also, you should mention how he is lying about himself and change. Voted with Bush 90% of the time.

That's how Marc Antony did it. First real praise followed by the contradictions.

14. but was he honorable in Vietnam?
I heard he made propaganda films for the enemy?

Why aren't we attacking his military record like they did to Kerry. And turning his perceived "strengthes" into "weaknesses" like repubs have done to us since the beginning of time?

16. Doesn't matter if he was
people think he was, so you have to start off with the commonly held belief and then destroy it.

15. Yes.
Whatever "honor" he may have once had, the McCain of 2008 is a pathological liar who will do or say ANYTHING to win the election.
