McCain wants to help Americans save their homes / Obama's "friend" would just as soon blown one up
Desperate McCain campaign pushes Obama link to 1970s radical

BY RICHARD SISK in Strongsville, Ohio and DAVID SALTONSTALL in Indianapolis
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU

Wednesday, October 8th 2008, 9:44 PM

John McCain's campaign careened wildly between the high and low roads Wednesday - a whiplash ride that suggested a growing desperation to start catching up to Barack Obama.


(snip)

Instead of the customary message of the day, there were two - in jarring juxtaposition:

- McCain wants to help Americans save their homes.

- Obama's ex-Weather Underground "friend" would just as soon have blown one up.

That came from a startling statement put out by the McCain campaign from John Murtagh, a Yonkers city councilman and GOP state Senate candidate.

1. I suggest editing your thread title for clarity
unless you are willing to live with hysterical accusations of trollhood etc.

2. Thanks to McCain '08, I have learned that sitting on this same service board someone else does
makes you a lifelong friend and admirer of all their actions.

3. Yes, we've heard this crap over and over again
It's vile and it is disturbing to hear repeated over and over again.

4. Outrageous. Uncalled for. Lying sack of shit.
I've been trying not to cuss, but it's getting very difficult. I haven't been this angry since Bush bombed Iraq. I'm sick of these outrageous comments from these sleezy, lying scumbags. I wish they'd read that book they're always thumping other people over the head with. Especially, the part about "that shalt not bear false witness..."
