AMNESTY-JOHN is the poster old-man for MANDATORY age limits for ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS. Just think how embarrassing it will be for Americans when AMNESTY-JOHN wets himself -or worse- in meetings with leaders of other countries. It would be just as bad as having a total moron representing America, and EVERYBODY knows how humiliating that has been.

One important thing to note - AMNESTY-JOHN''s multimillionaire, beer-distributor wife refuses to provide even a penny to his campaign. Smart, very smart. Perhaps she doesn''t like his positions either!

If AMNESTY-JOHN gets the nomination we can change the name of the Republican Party to the "Democratic-Lite Party". Our two party system will then consist of Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber!

CBS News: ''At the time, the 71-year-old senator''s effort was more than $500,000 in the red, and the bank''s line of credit was a pivotal lifeline that allowed him to make a strong showing in New Hampshire and eventually vault into the front-runner''s position.''

-Had McCain not won in NH, his campaign would have been banckrupted, a similar situation with what America is undergoing now with Walking-Liar Bush. This is the type of candidacy the Repukons are sorting for America, a bankrupted one.

Whats with this guy? He sticks his neck out over and over again when no one believes in him and pulls it off? Wow. Thats impressive. I didn''t think he could stop the Flip Flopping Romney but he has. I really like his new attack on the flip flopper. Romney was for an Iraqi Time table before he was against it. The flip flopper can say what ever he wants but I''ve seen the interview and its obvious that he was trying to have his cake and eat it too. The flip flopper wanted Secret timetables to withdraw without victory. He was very adamit about it.

What is Irrelevant Rudy doing in that picture? Unless, he is ruminating over his prospect of a VP. Dream on kids. Run for the hill. Democrat flood is coming.

It has been learned that "Bagdad" John McCain needed a special life insurance policy to get a line of credit from a bank to continue his campaign.

This is the same "Bagdad" John who called a young listener in his audience "a little creep" recently, for questioning if he were too old to be running for the title of Great Emperor. Strangely, he never did call Chuck Norris a "little creep" when Norris raised the same point and it is doubtful that he called any one of the bank officials that, when he took out his line of credit!

Of course, now that he has the support of the Governer Terminator of California, he will leave any scores to settle in the hands of Mr. Arnold, leaving "Bagdad" John to concentrate of his fellow opponents, "Mormom Mittens" Romney, "Huckles" Hucklebee, and "Underdog" Ron Paul.

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!!

John''s running mate will be running the country by the end of a year. Please, John if you win, pick a good one. We don''t need another Cheney running the country.

It''s so nice to see a true gambler running for President. Especially knowing he''ll be trounced in the general election.

Buh bye neocons!

McCain was once a great man, but now his senility is becoming more apparent everyday as is his desire to become president at all costs, even to the extent of kissing the backside of the man who blatantly lied about him in the 2000 race, George W. Bush. Someone needs to take him back to Sun City, change his diapers give him his afternoon fruit cup and put him down for his nap, before he embarrasses himself any more.

"He had to take out a special life insurance policy in case he did not survive the campaign."

A "special" policy?
Well, aren''t we special? (or too damm OLD).
Do this country a favor McOld and let someone else do the job.
You aren''t doing ANYBODY ANY favors by being the oldest living creature to attempt to be president.
Get into a nice retirement home and tell your stories.
Take some time to see how you''ve destroyed the fabric of America.

A vote for McCain or Huckabee is a vote for Hilary or Obama.

Republicans would rather sacrifice the next 4 years to the Democrats than have someone from their own party to blame when the economy fails. Romney is the only candidate qualified and proven to be able to fix our economy.
