Preposterous!

[ProSense]

Conflating keys and purple band-aid is absolutely ludicrous. It's like you're doing the GOP's work.

The organizers of the keys have no intention of attacking McCain's alleged PTSD.

The purple band-aid was a deliberate and despicable event.

To those of you harping on the potential for the GOP to spin this, you are the ones who made McCain's alleged PTSD the issue.

1. It's a reminder of having 10 houses.

Anyone who says otherwise is a willing dupe, at best.

2. Anyone who says otherwise is a willing dupe

3. I'll say otherwise

It's also a reminder that in another interview a few months back, he couldn't remember what kind of car he drives.

4. .

Repeat: preposterous!

5. How many threads have you started about this?

[ProSense]

6. Go count them and let me know.

Got a comment relevant to the OP?

[redqueen]

7. The OP says nothing new... so... no.

Just... wondering why you needed to start another one, that's all.

[ProSense]

8. Yes it does.

Preposterous!

Do you disagree?

[ProSense]

9. In fact, I think the discussion

has made it pretty clear that houses are the issue, and everyone has done a great job illustrating how the GOP will potentially try to spin this.

It's not going to work.

10. Still pushing this

video if anyone is interested in exposing the real McCain.

11. This has nothing to do with the intentions of the people doing it

And everything to do with how it will be spun. I guarantee you dollars to donuts it will be Democrats are making fun of McCains PTSD. Why do the democrats and Obama hate the troops so much? And yes, I am aware that the republicans got away with similar shit in '04. There is just a double standard, deal with it. The people warning against this aren't the ones making an issue out of it, we're trying to talk you guys off the edge, because this has the potential to take all of with you.

12. "Why do the democrats and Obama hate the troops so much?" Shouldn't the question be

Why do the troops hate McCain so much?

After all, they gave Obama six times as much as McCain.

There is reality, deal with that.

[SurfingAtWork]

13. I don't disagree that there is reality and MSM "Reality"

The reality is that Obama has more actual troop support. Unfortunatley however that isn't reported. If this haribrained idea ends up happening and gets covered, talk to me after they have interviewed the 5th or 6th injured veteran from Iraq, talking about how hurt and angry they were that the democrats were making fun of PTSD.

[ProSense]

14. "Unfortunatley however that isn't reported."

And yet it happened. The Republicans have done a great job of conditioning Democrats to fear their spin.

15. I so agree with you...

...and as I said on another post:

Purple bandaids -- denigrating the honorable service of a decorated veteran, and by extension, denigrating the honorable service of all decorated veterans.

Plastic keys -- making fun of a wealthy (kept) man who can't remember how many houses he owns, and by extension, making fun of all wealthy men who can't remember how many houses they own.

Hmmm, now which one of those was dirty and low-down? You have to ask?

16. The only place anybody is going to be wiggling their keys

is in front of their computer in their underpants.
