So I was watching the State of the Union last night.... - BIRD33 - 10-09-2008

During his 1992 campaign, at the end of a long day, McCain's wife, Cindy, mussed his receding hair and needled him playfully that he was "getting a little thin up there." McCain reportedly blew his top, cutting his wife down with the kind of language that had gotten him hauled into court as a high schooler: "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt." Even though the incident was witnessed by three reporters, the McCain campaign denies it took place.

We are getting lucky he's not in the lead.

Cindy McCain's face reminds me of Dr. Evil's hair-less cat.

You know this country is kind of strange. Obama being half white and half black and he marries a you know what and everyone is cool with it. Never heard one thing about him being in a mixed marriage or anything like that. But if he had fallen for some anglo chick and married her, I bet there would be all kind of talk going on about it.

The Statement: At a Tuesday, October 7, campaign stop in Indianapolis, Indiana, Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama compared his tax proposal to that of his opponent, Republican Sen. John McCain. "You've heard a lot about taxes in this campaign. Well, here's the truth — John McCain and I are both offering tax cuts," Obama said. "The difference is, he wants to give the average Fortune 500 CEO a $700,000 tax cut … ."

Get the facts!


The Facts: The Obama campaign bases the $700,000 claim on a Fortune 500 survey that showed the average CEO of those companies earned a salary of $12.8 million in 2007. What the statement considers a tax cut would be renewing President Bush's current cuts, which are scheduled to expire by January 2011. McCain has said he would push to renew those cuts, while Obama wants to let the cuts run out for the wealthiest Americans and offer new ones to people who make less money.

"The $700,000 in reduced taxes for CEOs comes from McCain's extending of the lower tax rates that those CEOs benefit from that were in place under the Bush tax cuts," The Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan, Washington-based tax-research group founded in 1937, wrote in an analysis of Obama's statement.

So, in effect, what Obama calls a tax cut would be keeping taxes for those wealthy CEOs the same as they are now — instead of letting them revert to what they were before Bush's cuts.

Verdict: True, but incomplete.

Seriously, I don't think any of them state this kind of stuff on the "up and up". Every time I hear any of them (McCain and Palin included) spout off some voting record, tax outcome, etc. I assume that it is skewed in some way to make it sound worse than it is.

I was watching this video which was shot about an hour away from me and I was struck by how openly racist the crowd is.Everything is "he's a muslim" like thats equal to being a terrorist.In my mind his campaign supporters are the most openly racist I've ever seen in a presidential campaign.I wasnt around for when Strom Thrumond ran for president but I'm guessing Mccains supporters come in second to that campaign.That is a scary crowd.

I didn't say wrong, I just said we would have heard a lot of talk about it. If Obama had been married to some caucasan blonde arm candy type of wife. Like Cindy McCain is.
