McCain Deserves to be President? |
|
I get the feeling that he thinks he is entitled to be president.
Does being a POW qualify? What is is that makes him think he is entitled?

1. I think this is where the "irresponsible pilot" rant comes in... |
|
McCain the reckless gambler who had 3, arguably 4, incidents attributed to poor decision-making. The choice of Palin and his recent erratic ramblings appear to be just more of the same...by no means deserving of being president.

2. He certainly acts like he is entitled to the position |
|
I get the sense that it is an ego thing for him - he really, really wants to be president, but he doesn't seem like he actually wants to govern.

3. That's why he chose Palin. |
|
She isn't his preferred VP, but he was told that she would help him win. Then he put County Last, McCain First...

8. Quote by Gen. Wesley Clark said earlier this year: |
|
"I don't think getting in a fighter plane and being shot down is a qualification to become president."

Oh wait, it's playing the race card. Or was it ageist? I know there is some reason you're not allowed to say it, or anything else negative about the McCain ticket.

11. ding, ding, ding! We have a winner. |
|
I think that's exactly what he thinks. It's his "turn." He "deserves" this. He just plain old wants to be called president.

12. He is the epidemy of greed...PURE GREED! And gluttony! |
|
He has milked his POW status for every molecule he could get out of it. The economy didn't go bust because of bad plans, it went bust because of greed. As George Soros said on Bill Moyers show, no system will work if the people on top, don't care about the people on the bottom. ANY system would work if the top DID care about the bottom.
So many Viet Nam veterans came back and got spat at, were ridiculed...not honored, many lived homeless on the street or waste away in the VA hospitals. But, there's John McCain, expecting every day of his life, 24/7 to be receiving honor, respect and ass kissing. He got it all...and left nothing for anyone else. That piece of shit couldn't even stand up for a fellow Viet Nam vet, John Kerry, when his party was swiftboating him.
