John McCain most admires David Petraeus? What a fucking BS answer

[Quixote1818]

So, I just watched video's of this Rick Warren thing and thought Obama's answers were awesome then McCain came on and said he most admires David Petraeus and I almost threw up! Anyone who is buying that line of shit is already going to vote for McCain and is an idiot. That was all I could stand to watch because I could tell McCain was going to say whatever Bush would have said. What a joke McCain is!

1. good grief....how offensive. I'm so glad that I didn't watch.

2. Petraeus, and the founder of eBay.

Jeebus.:eyes:

3. He was REAL tight ...

at the beginning ...

REAL tight, and he knew going in that he was going to go with the red meat hard and often ...

But, once the crowd boosted him up, he did get into a zone ...

10. Yeah, I almost went into hysterics when...

he mentioned eBay's Meg Whitman. Trying to pander to the PC/Internet literate proving that he's catching up.

4. I think it's a positive indicator that McNuts is totally concentrated on

nothing but the US Military Power! That's sure what I thought when I heard that response! I guess the founder of Ebay thing was just throwing a make believe bone to the peons of our country!

I forced myself to listen to the whole hour of his nonsense, and with almost every answer he either referenced his imprisonment in 'Nam or some kind of forceful attack on something! I hope I'm not alone in that observation!!!!

6. I reminded of a prisoner of war that says anything to please his captures

After he has been tortured.. The man is McNuts.... he is the queen of hearts for the Republicans
I find his canned responses disturbing after dealing with abused children professionally..

13. certainly seems that way

[Whisp]

5. he still haz teh jealous that Petraeus wuz in such

close quarterz with Obama on that furriner trip.

7. well here is my question

If McCain is simply going to call Petraeus and follow everything this brilliant man is going to suggest then why doesn't he step aside and let Petraeus get the nomination?

Why do we need a middle man?

8. DING DING DING...We have a Winnah!!!!

Exactly.

9. It was a brilliant answer

The families all across "fly over country" sitting down with their TV dinners and muscle T's ate it up.

[gblady]

11. the question actually was....

"who are the three wisest people you know that you would rely on heavily in your administration"...

a bit of a different connotation than who are people you admire...

so I could understand why he would think of the military General...

and why I thought his answer about the Ebay guy was extremely weird.

And Warren let him off the hook after mentioning only two.

That was the first indication of deferential treatment.

12. I guess his wife is air head

[Chloroplast]

14. I almost choked on my drink when he said that.

Petraeus as one of the best generals in history???? No wonder McCain was at the bottom of his class if he thinks someone like Petraeus is impressive; I guess Wellington, Napoleon, Washington and MacArthur were chopped liver. What a pandering ass.
