- You can also find McCain%u2019s bosom buddy Samuel (aka Joe The Plumber) attacking Social Security in his youtube rants.
Yes, aside from campaigning for McCain, %u201CJoe%u201D would love to see Social Security gone - on youtube %u201CJoe%u201D calls Social Security %u201Ca joke%u201D!
Also, keep an eye out for Samuel''s (Joe''s) new hit country record!
Huh?
That''s right, Samuel (alias Joe) Wurzelbacher, the Ohio pipe-and-toilet man, just signed with a Nashville PR & management firm to handle interview requests and media appearances for him, and create %u201Cnew career opportunities%u201D, including a shift out of the plumbing business into stage and studio performances.
After helping Palin to head the right-wing Republican Party, the least McCain could do would be to help "Joe" become an entertainment star, right? - Reply to this comment
- Another reason to vote for Obama/Biden and not for McCain/Palin?
How about Medicare still being around four years from now?
How%u2019s that?
Regarding Medicare / Medicaid, McCain has conveniently been hiding his true plans from seniors. But the pro-Republican Wall Street Journal of Oct. 6, 2008 shined some light on McCain%u2019s radical plans for Medicare / Medicaid.
In an interview with WSJ reporters on October 6th*, McCain economic advisor Doug Holtz-Eakin openly stated they intend to pay for their health insurance tax credits through $1.3 trillion in cuts in Medicare and Medicaid over 10 years.
That would mean reductions in benefits for Medicare and Medicaid of nearly 30% each year for 10 years, starting in January.

You might ask: Why did McCain wait until October 6th to spring this surprise on retirees with fixed incomes?
And why is this plan only to be found in the Wall Street Journal?
Why is McCain not talking to us about his plan in the debates, or in his campaign speeches?
But the answer to these questions is obvious: to prevent seniors, and people getting close to retirement, from learning the truth about his plan before the election next week!
These massive Medicare & Medicaid cuts, will effectively destroy these programs!
In other words, seniors on fixed incomes can literally say goodbye to their healthcare benefits under McCain/Palin.
But McCain never liked Medicare anyway! - Reply to this comment

- Sarah''s doin'' "trickle down" economics, by spendin'' lavishly on herself:
$4,716.49 on hair & makeup just through September,
$22,800. on makeup and hair Oct. 1-15,
$5,102.71 at Bloomingdale%u2019s New York,
$9,447.71 at Macy%u2019s in Minneapolis,
$49,425.74 at Saks Fifth Avenue in St. Louis and New York
$75,062.63 in a whoppin'' spending spree at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis (doggone it, she''s goin'' upscale on us real fast!).
Then there''s the $21,012. for her three daughters'' 64 one-way and 12 round-trip commercial flights since taking office as Gov. in Dec. 2006 (that bill was thankfully paid by the state of Alaska, admirably provin'' Palin''s credentials as an equal-opportunity biller!).
Republicans used to belittle former Sen. John Edwards'' $400 haircut - compared to Palin that was chump change! - Reply to this comment
- CouricObama, your pathetic fearmongering will scare only cowards. That''s why America will vote overwhelmingly for Obama.
Who will you vote for?
p.s. Don''t forget Obama''s TEN years as a lawmaker in Illinois, or his experience teaching Constitutional law.
Although, Palin does hunt wolves from helicopters... so I guess that means she''s qualified, to you.
Fool!
Try not to be a sore loser, ok? - Reply to this comment
- In every election cycle, I am disgusted by the insane hatred for Americans and America expressed by the Party of Arrogant Greed, which is accompanied by the absurd claim that this hatred is ''patriotic'' or ''pro-American'' and those who don''t agree are unpatriotic and anti-American traitors. Any conceivable outright lie is continuously employed in their deranged and irrelevant attacks, no matter how often or how effectively the lie is refuted.
This election, the repugnant insanity has become an issue which can no longer be ignored by the rest of us...the ACTUAL silent majority.
It''s long past time that the lunatics of the right-wing cabal are sent back to the insane asylums from which they escaped during the Reagan years. - Reply to this comment
- As a British spectator of the American Presidential Elections, I am staggered by the political unreliability and dubiousness of Obama''s friends and allies. Joe McCarthy must be turning in his grave! But seriously, though, it should concern the leaders of N.A.T.O that in this Democrat they might have, on the 5th. November, a real Trojan Horse.
Why is it that you Americans cannot see through Obama''s superficiality and weasel words? And why tar McCain and Palin with Bush''s broad brush of incompetence? However, you did choose to reject King George III................ - Reply to this comment
- jen001980,if Obama wins will you be moving to Alaska with all the other "REAL AMERICANS" to secede from the U.S., and continue the fight against commies from High Priestess Palin''s Holy Alaskan Theocratic Empire? We can only hope so.

- I''ve been watching the polls since July...every week or so they tighten a few points, then spread again in obamas favor (other than the period right after the RNC convention). We haven''t really seen a definiative shift with all/most the polls indicating that McCain is gaining, so I believe that we''re seeing this seesaw action again. It would take a lot to shift the entire voting public 7-10 points in a couple of days. My advice is to not worry about these last few polls - just get out and vote on Tuesday.

- WAKE UP!! The Republicans already have your money!
Republicans DOUBLED the national debt in 8 years and mortgaged our children''s future. They''ve given billions to banks and oil companies -- nothing for social security, health care or veterans. Republican policies gutted your college/retirement IRA and now your job''s at risk. McCain PROMISES more of the same.
Say "NO" to four more years of Republican corruption and deceit. Say "NO" to the Palin presidency you%u2019ll get when ol'' McCain goes off to a military hospital with peeling paint. Send Ms Palin off to teach the 20% of kids who drop out of Texas schools %u2013 if she%u2019s qualified -- something actually useful.
Say "YES" to the team that will talk to everyone -- white black hispanic jew old young repub or democrat-- and just maybe help out the other 95% of us in this crisis Republicans created. - Reply to this comment

Daddy: ''Who was John McCain?''
Oh, Yeah! He WAS once a presidential candidate in 2008, but the goofball lost the election due to his own erratic campaign fumbling. He picked an obsure woman for his VP, who made quite a fool of John McCain, and made his election campaign into a cartoon show. SHE WAS LAUGHED RIGHT OUT OF HISTORY.
McCain lost by the biggest landslide ever in America. - Reply to this comment
