No wonder why John McCain popped his lips off yesterday by assuming that "we are all Georgians".

I repeat John McCain is not qualified to be President.

America needs Obama who has no money ties to lobbyiests and PAC money.

His stupid remarks that all Americans stand behind Georgia with him was absurd. Georgia started this mess at the behest of Condi and McCain.

Ahh Johnnyboy McSame...you just can''t keep your fingers out of other people''s wallets. They used to call these things bribes before George Bush got in office, now they call them part of doing normal business with Republicans. How shameful! I wonder if he does anything based on principle..remember that word? Oh probably not that was back in the good ole'' days...oh wait...maybe he does remember...oh never mind...that''s right during the good ole'' days he was part of the Keating five that took bribes...I mean money from unsolicited sources. :-)

John McCain should not have turned his campaign over to those in service to foreign countries or foreign banks.

Either way, I guess we can hope for more war and bloodshed no matter who gets elected. Just choose stupid or corrupt.

The US invaded Iraq to control their oil, including the 100 billion barrel reserve that was discovered not long before the invasion.

Russia invaded Georgia to control the Baku / Caspian oilfields and the pipelines that flow from them.

So what''s the difference, other than the fact that Georgia is as close to Russia as Mexico is to the US, while Iraq is on the other side of the world from the US.

Two superpower hogs grabbing what they can.

So McCain can spare us the hypocritical sentiments about freedom and how they speak for us all.
