Watch this s.o.b. He just MIGHT bolt the party for his "good friend" John Kerry.

Too bad the Viet Cong didn't break his neck instead of his arms.

lol! Isn't that the truth! From what I've learned from FR there isn't a town across America that hasn't been touched by the wacky liberals. I figured it's just better to stay here and fight it out! Who knows, maybe someday we might take CA back!

McCain said he wouldn't term Kerry "weak on defense"...

Thank you for the clarification.

The Washington Post ran with a NewsMaxish headline that McCain was "backing" Kerry's defense record, when in fact, a he said he wouldn't term Kerry "weak on defense". Not slamming his record isn't the same as endorsing it.

And the liberal media are supposed to be masters of nuance. ;^)

"We have differences of opinion, but I'm not going to criticize John Kerry,"

It seems McCain will jump at the chance to criticize people in his own party including the President, but won't criticize a Dem, especially the one Dem who is trying to unseat the President. Once again I call on the people of Arizona to get this man out of public office. McCain is a liar if he thinks Kerry isn't weak on defense.

McCain said: "I don't think that. I think that John Kerry is a good and decent man. . . . I think he has different points of view..."

Good ole John McCain ("R"-AZ).

OK. Let's re-write the ad, shall we? Instead of...

John Kerry Is Weak On Defense!!

...let's make it...

John Kerry Is A Good And Decent Man
Who Merely Has A Different Point Of View!!

Yeah. That's the ticket. That'll do it. That's sharpen the lines and win the Election!

Now, now, let's be fair to John...he has the same pre-disposition to marrying wealth as Kerry does...he is only sticking up for one of his own...


Interesting, because McCain was NOT doing that when he was sitting in "Hanoi Hilon?!?
