McCain Ad Touts Ticket
The McCain campaign is out with a new ad, titled, “Original Mavericks,” featuring the GOP candidate and his running mate, Sarah Palin. In the ad, the two are portrayed as crusading reformers, with an announcer intoning: “The original mavericks. He fights pork barrel spending. She stopped the bridge to nowhere. He took on the drug industry. She took on big oil. He battled Republicans and reformed Washington. She battled Republicans and reformed Alaska. They'll make history. They'll change Washington. McCain. Palin. Real change.” Watch it:
UPDATE: A response from Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton:
“Despite being discredited over and over again by numerous news organizations, the McCain campaign continues to repeat the lie that Sarah Palin stopped the Bridge to Nowhere. John McCain has voted with George Bush 90% of the time and he and Sarah Palin will continue Bush's economic policies, his health care policy, his education policy, his energy policy, and his foreign policy. McCain and Palin will say or do anything to make people believe that they will change something besides the person sitting in the Oval Office. That's the kind of politics people are tired of, and it's anything but change."

The secrets of tennis legend 
"The Bridge to Nowhere" became an earmark for over 200 million dollars which was accepted and spent by Palin. Are all earmarks BAD or just the one''s titled, "The Bridge to Nowhere".
Wrong again. The economy was just fine two years ago. Then the do-nothing Democrat Congress got it, refused to do their jobs, and handed us this mess. And its no accident. They are perfectly willing to sit and let their inaction hurt people so that they can misdirect the blame in a Presidential election year.
These are the *** you want to put in trust of your future ... you need to learn how this stuff works and smarten up, my friend. Going thru life as an ignorant and gullible tool is not really what you have in mind, I''m sure! LOL
Ease up, the nightmare of the last few months IS disappearing. Its looking more and more like the incompetent Obama with his lies and scams isn''t going to get away with it.
We''ll have a man with REAL experience in the White House. So relax, you''re going to be OK.
List of WARS (where more than 5,000 people died) and who got us into them.
Civil War- Democrats
WW I- Democrats - Wilson
WW II- Democrats - Roosevelt
Korea- Democrats- Truman
Viet Nam- Democrats- Kennedy, LBJ
hmmm%u2026
why doesn%u2019t someone do a story about the %u201Cpaid%u201D peace protesters%u2026.they are lobbyists in a sense too aren%u2019t they!!!!! (one of them admitted they were paid extra if they got arrested.
The media libs are in a flat out frenzy over this%u2026.it is just plain DE-lightful%u2026as Doug Heffernan would say.
media=dumpster diving sewer rats, scurrying to dig up anything they can from day one of the veep announcement to try and dirty her reputation. These people do not have a DECENT bone in their body or DECENT thought in their head. It is fun to watch THEM IN SUCH A FREZY - THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY TOTAL SURPRISE ON THIS.
Pirahna is a compliment- SEWER RATS IS MORE ACCURATE
And doing same thing now.
McWar and Pit Bull are energizing Idiots.
Ticket for idiots.
Is country ready/
That one, which we ALL put first, except those idiots.
Why would anyone think you should point out an obvious lie when a candidate puts it in an ad?
Sarah Palin who could possibly be our next Vice Presient and/or President has a long time affiliation with the AIP , group which wants to separate from the United States, whose motto is Alaska First%u2014Alaska Always.%u201D Sarah Palin%u2019s husband also has a long-time mebership with this group, the Alaskan Independence Party. Officially, the AIP is a political party which advocates, in part, becoming a separate nation or commonwealth state%u2026 The party has appeared on the ballot in Alaska in all state elections since 1970. At other times, party members have also proposed that the state explore the possibility of joining Canada.
Here is a Link to Sarah Palin addressing the Alaska Independence Party in 2007 wherein she tells them %u201CYour party plays an important role in our state%u2019s politics ... keep up the good work, and God bless you.%u201D
