Not happy about it but sons HS Politics class is going to McCains rally tomorrow and he needs to....

[yourout]

bring a question in case he is asked.

Any ideas?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. Why are so many of your close advisors lobbyists?

What are your plans for Social Security?

How much will your tax on health benefits cost the average family?

[RayOfHope]

2. are you sure your son isn't a bit feverish? Coming down with a bad cold, perhaps? LOL n/t

[MrModerate]

3. Pick the biggest gaffe from tonight and ask the precipitating question . . .

Alternatively, "Given her record before and after your selection of her, what made you think that Sarah Palin was prepared to be Vice President?"

[AndyTiedye]

4. "After Being One of the Keating 5", Why Did You Support Deregulation Again 10 Years Later?

"What good is all that experience if you never learn anything from it?"

[yourout]

5. kicking for a few more ideas.

[MaryBear]

6. How about this?

Mr. McCain, you are a true hero, with your POW time and all.

With all respect, Sir, how does that in any way prepare you to be President?

[renate]

10. that would be AWESOME coming from a kid!

The innocence of babes.... :rofl:

[firedupdem]

7. My son is black so I wouldn't let him go......but if he did, he could ask

WHY DO YOU HATE BLACK PEOPLE?

[mb7588a]

9. Beat me to it! nt

[mb7588a]

8. Why do you treat black people like shit? nt.

[bkcc]

11. "What bills will you bring to the floor when you're a senator next year?"

That should go over like a fart in church.
:)

[FatDave]

17. That's my favorite right there! (nt)

[Egnever]

12. You should be thrilled

why in the world would you be unhappy about it? Unless they passed up an opportunity to go to an obama rally.

politics are incredibly interesting.

As a question why not ask. I heard you say in the debate that bad mortgages are the root of our current financial troubles. Could you explain how those mortgages came about and did the low fed interest rates have anything to do with creating the bubble?

[No Elephants]

13. Um, why is your son's class going to a McCain rally in the first place? The question--

Why wouldn't you look at Obama in the first debate or shake the hand he extended to you last night?

[WinkyDink]

25. And local Republicans are TICKED that they couldn't get tickets!

[RoadRage]

14. What are the top 3 policies that you completely disagree with George Bush on?

[smoochpooch]

15. Does your son have an Obama shirt he could wear?

Even a button or a t-shirt with an Obama bumper sticker stuck to the front?

[JBoy]

16. I'm thinking of dumping my girlfriend for a younger, prettier one. That's OK, right?

[jrockford]

20. and richer one

[Born_A_Truman]

18. Senator McCain, how is taxing employer heath care benefits not a mandate?

Will it be voluntary?

[calmblueocean]

19. "Why won't you make your Vice President give a press conference? Every other VP has."

That's the one I'd most like to hear.

[johnaries]

21. Ask him why he keeps saying the surge worked, when it was

actually the Sunni Awakening.

[dbmk]

29. And tons of cash in bribes to keep things quiet

Money worked FAR better than troops.

[kath]

22. Why have you classified thousands of pages of POW-MIA documents, to the severe distress of POW-MIA

families? Was it to cover up the fact that you sang like a bird to the North Vietnamese?
And Is it true that you actually shoved a woman in a wheelchair (a POW or MMMM

[jmowreader]

23. Have him ask something about Charles Keating

Or better, about the crash of the S&L McCain's son was a director of.

[WinkyDink]

24. In Bethlehem? Tell him to look for me outside; I'll be holding the "EPIC FAIL" sign.

[AllentownJake]

26. You attack your opponents character but constantly whine when your is questioned

why?

[eridani]

27. How come soldiers serving abroad are 6 times more likely--

--to donate to Obama than to you? Why do disabled vets give you a 20% rating as opposed to Obama's 80%?

[kath]

30. Along related lines -- why do Vietnam Vets hate you so much?

see http://www.vietnamveteransagainstmccain.com/

[thoughtcrime1984]

28. "Why are you so angry?"

[renie408]

31. The question should be why his Politics class is 'supporting' McCain.

I wouldn't let my son go. Period. This is wrong and you should fight against it.

[DrZeeLit]

38. Is this class going to attend an Obama (or even Biden) Rally? Then, maybe OK. But...

I don't see how the school can support this biased activity.
During an election students are not being "educated." They are being endoctrinated.
Teachers need to use acute discretion.
Does the Administration of the school and/or school district know about this trip.
I'd be surprised.
Reallllllly surprised if they do.

[JohnMcCant2008]

32. Let him get "sick" and take him out for a father/son day instead........

[seemunkee]

33. How much will the failure of your son's bank cause the American Taxpayers?

[Onlooker]

34. Did you ever earn a salary from anyone other than the American taxpayer?

From what I have read, McCain has only worked for the military or the Congress, and has never held a job in the private sector, unlike Obama.

[Born_A_Truman]

37. He worked for Cindy's daddy before he ran for Congress

[Nipper1959]

35. Why do we

have to get off of your lawn?

[Irishonly]

36. Have him ask about the future of federal aid and loans for college

Will Gramps cut and gut the program more? Will it be part of the spending freeze?

[PresidentObama]

39. Why did you cheat on your first wife and leave her? Why won't you release your medical records?

Why are you lying about Obama's tax plan and say he's going to raise taxes?

[Bluenorthwest]

40. Senator,

you have said that Sarah Palin knows more about energy than anyone in the country. If she knows more than anyone, she should be speaking about nothing else in this time of energy crisis.So why won't she share her vast knowlege by answering questions from the American people on this very important subject?

[vanderBeth]

41. Why are you getting so desperate that you need HS students to fill your audience?

[Ganja Ninja]

42. "Got any tips on marrying a rich heiress?"

Or "Do you know any Navy pilots that have crashed more planes than you?"
Or "Why do you hate America?"
