Unfit for the White House

The day before Bush address at the White House plugging for a bailout, McCain was asked on what is his stand on the memo of Treasury Secretary about the economy. McCain's bland answer was, he has not read the three page memo which has been discussed in Washington circles for over a week. This prompted a wiseacre that the Straight Talk Express has no reading room. Fact is, McCain has no interest on  economy matters.    After Bush's suggestion for an economic bailout, Obama suggested to McCain that a joint statement be drawn to spur  bipartisan support of the Bush initiative. A bulb suddenly lit in  McCain's head and saw a grand opportunity to act presidential. He issued a statement on his own (never mind Obama) calling for a bipartisan support of Bush bailout, thus effectively pirating Obama's idea. He  pushed  his grandstanding to the hilt - McCain announced suspending his campaign so he could rally "bipartisan support" (his hackneyed phrase on the campaign trail) and also announced that he will not attend the scheduled debate "unless a deal is reached " in Washington. The succeeding events showed McCain stumbling at every step and eventually eating crow, but for now this writer would like to point out  the consensus at the capitol that it is the president's job together with congress to bail out the economy. In other words, McCain is trying to usurp the duties of the president after his intellectual dishonesty of pirating the idea of Obama.  McCain's rightful place is a rocking chair in front of his ranch at Sedona - definitely not the White House.

Will They Ever Learn??

Republican noise makers declared McCain winner of the debate even before it started. It means McCain need not  show up for the debate because it is already won. Talk about being scared. In the course of the debate familiar cliches were tossed  around in abundance: 1. I have plenty of experience and ready to be president. 2. He is naive and does not understand Iraq. 3.  He is naive and doest not understand Russia. 4. He is naive and does not  understand the surge. 5. He is naive and does not understand foreign policy by  talking to adversaries without preconditions.  These are pronouncements, worn out and passe were it not re-hashed  by the nominee of GOP. These were the same pronouncements of someone who is now in the dustbin of history. The electorate is not that stupid.  Will they ever learn?

Moral Fibber??

On Larry King Live hour at CNN, Susan Molinari, a republican hatchetwoman revealed that the republicans cannot attack Obama because there is no record to attack. That explains why the McCain brigade  fabricate lies to paint Obama on. Obama is  impregnable on his moral fiber, so the McCain  camp have to invent their  moral fibber. What kind of president will that make of McCain?

Pinocchio for President?

Senator John McCain has nothing to say to the electorate, so he cooks up a broth of lies and calls it medicine for the ills of the american people. There's no telling how intelligent is the american electorate - a pinocchio may yet become president.

Capricious McCain

 

   Soldier McCain flaunts his military service, in addition to love of country, as making him fit to guard the ramparts of liberty when he occupies the White House. Recent revelations of candidate McCain point otherwise. Granting his claim as expert on security, he is well qualified as security guard of the bank of america  - were he younger.

 

   Candidate McCain is at least a decade  away from senility but he is quick to fake senior moments when cornered with leading questions: he can not exactly remember how many houses he owns.  In the face of mass foreclosures and people all over the country at the brink of losing their homes, McCain's multiple homes is in stark contrast and sticks out like a sore thumb in an ailing economy. In a vain effort to mollify  ruffled feathers, McCain surrogates pictured McCain laid up as a POW in a house with bare floors purportedly to evoke sympathy.

 

   When Russian troops invaded Georgia, McCain was quick on the draw shooting from the hip. He blustered that Russia ought to be expelled from G8 nations and in unabashed demagoguery  McCain declared that all Americans are Georgians!

 

   And now comes the snake oil! McCain picks Sara Palin as running mate. This is very obvious pandering to Hillary Clinton women voters. These histrionics makes McCain very well qualified to be president of Barnum Bailley Circus.
