    Ms Kerry was out there making stupid comments - much like Michelle Obama has done

    Ms Kerry made herself an issue


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

    That doesn't excuse it.

    Nor does it mean that the liberals won't use the same tactics.

    When someone injects themself into the spotlight, they become fair game. Mrs Kerry did judt that much like Michelle did

    John Kerry made his military record, his wealth, and lifestyle an issue - and lost on all three issues

    I'll take your refusal to answer as an affirmative. And since you seem to have answered affirmatively, you have no room to bitch except for possibly your complaint about his "confusion" which may be a legitimate concern although I can see how an investor might not know how many homes he owns at any given time.

    Well, it is obvious you are a hypocrit.

    And how many times have you gone back to "Bush this" or "Bush that" since this campaign began hypocrit?

    Here.

    I got your hypocrite.

    He is someone who purports to campaign as a man of the people, but who resides in a whole series of wealthy million dollar chateaus and mansions," said Bush campaign spokesman Terry Holt in the summer of 2004. "It's just one more contradiction and example of him being out of the mainstream with America."

    Obama attack on McCain's homes has GOP precedent
    Republicans seem to have forgotten their apoplectic reaction to Kerry's houses. I'm doing you a favor by not beating you with it.

At least McCain flew aircraft, even though they were Navy pieces of shit, he still actually did something worthwhile.
    No matter where I've traveled or how great the trip was, it's always wonderful to return to my country, The United States of America......... me

    I get so tired of trying to explain this to people.

    It is not elitist to have a lot of money. It is not elitism to earn money and enjoy it.

    Elitism is when you claim you know what should be done with the money of OTHERS while maintaining your own money for your own use.

    Elitism is thinking you do not have to answer to a higher power (whatever that may be..the people, the law, God) because you are of a "special" ilk, and not subject to the rules of ordinary men.

    McCain having $$ and houses and not being his own realtor or accountant does not make him an elitist. It places him in an elite class, financially, but that doesn't make him an elitist...unless he believes in things like the redistribution of wealth, or modest lifestyles for politicians, or uber-environmentalism....for other people.

    is the point of this to claim that mcain is not a man of the people....

    tell you what name a president that or even a candidate that is in touch with the reality of not being able to buy their kids something or being able to go on vactions....

    name one.....

    they are all out of touch......
