Key Rattlers taunt McCain over his POW years.

I should never be shocked by the bad manners on the left but this stunt just might haunt them more than Wellstone's funeral. There is a key rattling stunt/taunt growing in popularity amongst the Democrats. Some may try to play it off as mocking him for having so many houses but the truth is that the jingling keys are to imitate the prison guards at the Hanoi Hilton. Whatever they're thinking they better stop it soon because even apolitical types will side with McCain out of sympathy if for no other reason. I learned the true meaning of this key rattle thing by lurking at DU. With over 200 responses to the thread it appears 50/50 in support/disapproval of the key rattling stunt. It's something that needs to be seen to be believed.

I heard a libtard on TV last night or this morning saying that she thinks McCain is exploiting his POW status.

Because, of course, a Democrap candidate would NEVER dream of exploiting his "service" in Viet Nam now, would he?

It appears the KOS blogger wasn’t suggesting it for a prison guard effect, just “7 houses”. Someone is taking this idea and twisting it to the prison guard effect.

That's how they WANT it to look.

The reality is that pastordan knows about the prison guard effect and is using the "7 houses" as a cover.

They know what they're doing.

I’ll give most of them credit for realizing what would happen if they tried to pull that cr@p. They’re F****D enough having to deal with PResident McCain for the next cycle, if they do this, the downticket backlash would give the GOPhers a SUPERmajority with Veto PRoof power to outlaw LIBRATS on the first day of congress and declare open season on them (metaphorically speaking of course.)

Oh man, why do they have to hide it? They’ve been screaming that obama is too soft on Sen. McCain. They want obama to be a bad ass yet they wont?

That “7 houses” ridicule is so lame. Look at their gods, Gore and Kerry. Especially Kerry, I’m sure his multiple home-owning is only possible because of his wife. Gore has his new 100’ houseboat to cruise around too! That global warming/climate change pays well.

Sounds like something that the crowd might be able to take care of at the rallies. Be a shame if someone tripped and got those keys lodged somewhere uncomfortable.

I hope they do this. McCain can come out with an add with the DOORS singing “The End” with a lot of bloodshed there and stoned hippies here.

If they do that anywhere, McCain should stop whatever he is talking about and tell the crowd that they should welcome thise from the daily Kos and Democratic underground, two left wing politcal forums and that them shaking their keyes are them making light of his 5 years at the Hanoi Hilton. Once that is brought to light FoxNews will surely cover it and it will stop.

I notice that DUmmie never said anything about it being wrong because trying to taunt a man by bringing up traumatic memories is wrong. He said it would be a political problem for them to be compared to North Vietnamese prison guards but not a word about not wanting to actually be like NVA prison guards.

There's the voice of the highest moral clarity on the left for you. Basically Ted Bundy. Smile and don't get caught.

My internet connection was down most of the evening. I got what was there, but it appears it is already scrubbed in parts. Something about whether or not McCain likes to ride with his head sticking out of the limo window has no comments other than their weird title thing.

Most of my younger liberal friends hate McCain just like they hate Bush. Not “disagree with,” not “dislike.” HATE. They hate anything Republican or even faintly conservative. They are classic smug big-city liberals who automatically know that they’re superior to us dolts in red-state flyover country. And part of that is that while some of them respect what McCain went through, to a person, they all think that he’s just running on being a “war hero”...they think that he’s got nothing else but the fact that he was a POW for five and a half years.

Basically they think he’s using his “war hero” status the same way that Obama is using his race—a topic that May Not Be Discussed, and as a bludgeon against anyone who dares disagree with him. It’s crazy and it’s BS, but that’s how they see things over on the loony left.

Looks to me like he's already got a set to go with his whistling S's speech impediment and his thin skin...

Thank you. After I said I didn’t know how to do a screen capture, I got a few PMs telling me how. Freepers are so cool. I will work on that later tonight. I felt bad pinging you to all the threads to capture. :)
