McCain Exploits MN Bridge collapse victims to make a cheap political point…

As if we needed any other kind of proof that John McCain is a asshole.

There’s this:

Quote:

ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Republican John McCain said Wednesday that the bridge collapse in Minnesota that killed 13 people last year would not have happened if Congress had not wasted so much money on pork-barrel spending

Federal investigators cite undersize steel plates as the "critical factor" in the collapse of the bridge. Heavy loads of construction materials on the bridge also contributed to the disaster that injured 145 people on Aug. 1, according to preliminary findings by the National Transportation Safety Board.

"The bridge in Minneapolis didn’t collapse because there wasn’t enough money," McCain told reporters while campaigning in Pennsylvania. "The bridge in Minneapolis collapsed because so much money was spent on wasteful, unnecessary pork-barrel projects."

(Snip!)

On the same day, McCain was confronted with an earmark he did consider worthy. During a forum at Lehigh Valley Hospital, he met a woman with ovarian cancer who was treated in a clinical trial funded with $80 million in congressional earmarks.

The hospital was showing off an electronic medical records system that is virtually paper-free.

McCain insisted he was not trying to have it both ways and said that deserving projects can get money through regular channels.

"It’s the process I object to," he said. "I’m sure that I can give you a list of projects the Mafia funds, and they would probably be good projects. But I can’t give you a justification for the Mafia. I can’t give you a justification for the corruption that’s been bred which has sent members of Congress to the federal prison," he said.

"Look, if we reform the process, then the money will take care of itself. It’s a corrupt process," he said.

Yeah, sure you’re not Johnny. You’ve just proven to me and most of America, that you’re a feckless idiot. Good luck in November, jackass.

I’ll just say it. Good.

You cannot understand a damn thing that idiot marble mouth says any damn way.

Let her take a good English course, and then go on a book tour.

I’m sure her book makes some very valid points about the G.O.P., But I cannot stand her at all.

She knowingly married a damned Gay blade and then used it to her advantage.

She’s an elitist bitch, a liberal asshole snob. I’d rather never write another article, than be forced to write for that feckless bitch.

Go back to Greece and stay there…

Republican Space Rangers????

Seen over at HotAir.com….

This video exploits every Neo-Conservative Nuance.

It goes from side splitting hilarious to just down right sad.

If it is not clear, that this is not a good time to be a conservative or worse yet, a Republican, it should be very clear. after viewing this.

I’m sure Keith Olbermann would just love this.

Wright Speaks….

Yes, He did speak.

Yes, I did listen to the WHOLE thing.

Yes, he did have some valid points.

Yes, there are people who do not like what he said, which is no surprise to me.

The only people who will just reject outright everything that he says, are racist bigots, who are haters. To that I say, they can, frankly, go to hell. They know who they are. 

The reaction seems to be mixed, so far. Which is no surprise.

As someone who grew up in Southwest Detroit and grew up around Whites, Mexicans, and yes, Black people…. I can see where Wright is coming from.

Do I think his comments, that were made right after September 11, 2001, were okay???  No. I think that they were misguided, hateful and just plain wrong.

But the one’s made last night, were justified, and made a good deal of sense. At least to me, this is because I came from a multi-cultural background. Most people that will listen to this and take critical stance, are the pasty white people, who have never hung around anyone other than their own kind, and quite frankly, belong on the forums over at Stormfront.org.

That is all….

Update: I also listened to the second speech. I will make this absolutely clear. This man is a believer in "Black Liberation Theology", which is a derivative of "Liberation Theology". This doctrine is, in fact, a Marxist Theology. So, as far as I am concerned, Rev. Jeremiah Wright is nothing more, than a black communist. If Barack Obama agrees with ANY aspect of what this man says, Religious or Political, he is, in fact, a Marxist, and I will NOT be voting for him, should he secure the nomination of the Democrat Party. I do not want to be responsible for the election of a closet communist in our White House.

Update 2: Here’s the Video:

Our Soldiers are coming back to horrible conditions at Ft. Bragg….

Go look.

I just wonder, how are the Neo-Conservative, Bush-Apologists, going to respond to this?

It should be quite interesting.

I wonder where WorldNetDaily’s outrage will be on this?

Better yet, What will Michelle "I married a rich Jew, to be somebody" Malkin’s response will be?

Should be interesting…. Spin and deny, what the Republicans are good at.

The Neo-Cons turn on McCain….

Like a Rabid Dog…

Money Quote:

Telling the truth about a candidate for the President of the United States and his connections to extremist men and women is the highest form of truth, and if McCain can’t understand that perhaps he should quit running now, we don’t want him and neither does America. 

Yes, Excellent idea! The last thing we need is another "Big Government" Conservative. Not that Obama or Hillary are any better, but at least they’re not on the Geritol……Yet
