5. I'd like to see all the children

and wives

7. Excellent question!

[Divine Discontent]

11. it is! I copied the text from a friend's email that works with foster kids, and she brought it to

my attention and wondered why they would block her from the PEOPLE cover, but, as someone said - ROVE knows damn well that the people that bought into the BS that McCain had a black baby would go, "OHHH! there's that black baby!", no doubt.

8. Maybe because that child was savaged in the political arena and they are protecting her?

Leave those children alone.

Is that so hard? Just leave the kids out of it.

ETA: Your "not pretty enough" comment speaks VOLUMES about you.

9. maybe you don't know what you're talking about? think of that

yet the fact doesn't stop you from making an uncalled for comment claiming that I think she's ugly, when I think she's cute as a button, but we're talking about the REPIG party that assailed Hillary as an ugly fat pig, and Chelsea as being the baby of Hillary and Janet Reno. So you can kiss it, for accusing me of implying she's not cute. I stop and sit with a 500 pound homeless woman each day, do you? (see how easy it is to insult you without knowing what you do in life? you're a piece of work)

[Beausoir]

10. Fair enough. Just leave the kids alone.

[New Dawn]

12. ROFL, the GOP does not care about protecting children. This is a case of racism.

It is really that simple. But I'm not surprised that a Clintonite "doesn't get it" though.

[Beausoir]

15. So, you are calling me a racist? Yes?

:rofl:

13. I was disturbed by the omission of McCain's adopted...

daughter from the People photo, especially with the entire Palin family in the photo.

It reflects very, very poorly on the McCains, regardless of how they try to explain it.

[Divine Discontent]

14. I am sorry I missed it, a friend had to tell me about it, and I posted this info, for her eom

[AkFemDem]

16. I don't buy it! If anything she'd be a diversity ASSET to his campaign

I imagine she just isn't into that and they are respecting her wishes.

There are many things to hate about McCain's policies but I have never gotten the feeling he pimps his kids out as political tools- frankly he could be getting LOTS more leverage out of his son's service in Iraq for example if he wanted.

I just think the daughter is a non-issue, she's not in photo ops because she doesn't like to be.

17. that may be, there's certainly wiggle room, but...

the Maverick allowed himself to be bullied into choosing a person he never met seriously before last week, when he wanted Lieberman. So, I don't think he goes against anything they tell the old fool. Remember, he caved in to the AFA and Focus on the NutFamily and Dr. Dobson today by allowing the GOP plank to be the harshest ever against Gay people, Women's rights, and stem cell research... he's easily bullied.
