Just saw a new RNC ad saying that you would not trust an inexperienced
person to operate a plane or to act as a doctor (paraphrasing)... What is McCain's experience as president? He has no experience in making actual decisions related to national issues. Why don't the dems ask that question?

1. I agree
What experience does McCain have anyway??

He has no leadership experience. He just assumes that he deserves the Presidency.

15. Yeah, the RNC picked an interesting comparison for somebody who has crashed 3 planes
I'm still baffled by the McCain experience argument. McCain has been in DC longer and he's older, but I don't see how either of these qualify him more to be president than Obama. His judgment has been shown to be piss poor, to say the least.

5. I agree. I never trust an inexperienced unlicensed plumber
especially when he turns out to be a delusional shill.

7. And if he should die in office
Palin would be a better choice than Obama and Biden? He can't play the experience card with Palin as his VP choice.

10. Bush had five years of executive experience as governor of Texas ...
Cheney was White House Chief of Staff (Ford), Secretary of Defense (Bush41) and served six terms in congress.

WTF did all that "experience" do for us?! :grr: :eyes:

11. His "expierience" is that he was in prison for 5 yrs.
What would the GOP be doing if Obama had the same expierience?

14. Yet they were happy to support...
..."Ahnold" in "Kahlifornia".

He had never held any political office in his life and the R's proudly ran him and got him elected to administer the sixth largest economy in the world.

These guys blow in the wind. If Obama was the R's candidate they would be talking about how "changey" and "new and different" he was.

It's all crap.
