Just seen John McCain on my TV trying to convince me people want to come here and kill me
Don't the hundreds of thousands of innocent people McCain wanted to go kill in Iraq have friends and family who are very pissed off about us sending our army and mercenaries over to their country and blowing them up to smithereens?

I would not be surprised at all if some of those people would like to come over here and kill me for what these people have done to them. And if we kill more of them as McCain suggests we do there will be even more distraught friends and family members of the deceased people we slaughter who want to come and kill me?

So why does McCain want to kill more of these innocent Iraqi people to make more people want to come here and kill me?

Does McCain have anything that resembles a withdrawal to stop making more people who want to kill me? Whats the plan here? Anyone know?

3. Enclosure
I was reading a little refresher on that period of British history while McCain was speaking, and it occurred to me that the Middle East and Africa may be among the last places in the world where there is still common land usage.

We gotta make the world safe for 3rd world factory owners.

4. Years ago, a Vietnam vet told me
that he turned against that war when he suddenly realized that there was a group of people trying to kill him, and it was his own government.

5. Plan?
We're locked in a death struggle. Let go, and we're at the mercy of the terrorists. No way out of it. Kill or be killed, and by golly we have the biggest bang-bangs and Gawd on our side, so we're sure to win a brawl with a billion or so Muslims all over the world.

Gee, it sounds kind of stupid, but there's no denying that it's a plan.

6. McCain is playing to his base
His base are the folks who vote for whoever does the best job of scaring the bejeezus out of them. Typically, the Repubs do a better job of fear-mongering than the Dems. And there's lots to fear out there besides terra, terra, terra. There's brown people who want to cross the border and take away your job, or your place in line, and there's people who want to take away your hard-earned money, and it's your money, not the government's money. So, if you want Daddy to protect you, then yeah, vote for McCain.

7. Sorry, John McCain. I feel perfectly safe.
I had no part in illegally invading a country. There is no blood on my hands. No one is mad at me.
I am not a Republican nor am I am a senator who shirked my constitutional duty to reign in a rogue president who has been the scourge of the world. I understand why he might feel paranoid, but I do not.

9. I don't care how many candidates are running in the Dem or repub primaries
we still only have 2 choices

we can vote for fear and terror, or we can vote for hope and change
