I must say: I am admiring and respecting Barack Obama more and more for hitting back against the Republicans’ lies. Oddly enough, John “did you know I was beaten by the Vietnamese” McCain is saying - via Chief Traitor to his nation and party - Joe Lieberman, that he won’t touch Reverend Wright. Bull-f’n-shit. Considering that McCain’s cronies, including Sarah Palin, have uttered worst things… I think that is just setting up the table for the Wright attacks which will come soon as the polls suggest Obama’s lead is growing.
If this happens, heck, even if this does not happen, I think the time is nigh to emphasize John McCain’s poor judgment and poor taste. The media is talking about things like his selection of Sarah Palin as his VP choice… but why stop there? Let’s get deeper: John McCain’s personal and professional closet if filled with skeletons.
Poor Judgment
Why is John McCain’s mug one of the five pictures amongst the Keating Five? From Wikipedia:
The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s. The five senators, Alan Cranston, Dennis DeConcini, John Glenn, John McCain (R-AZ), and Donald W. Riegle, were accused of improperly aiding Charles H. Keating, Jr., chairman of the failed Lincoln Savings and Loan Association, which was the target of an investigation by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB).
The result of the collapse of Lincoln Savings and Loan was that 21,000 mostly elderly investors lost their life savings. After a lengthy investigation, the Senate Ethics Committee determined in 1991 that Alan Cranston, Dennis DeConcini, and Donald Riegle had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB in its investigation of Lincoln Savings. Senators John Glenn and John McCain were cleared of having acted improperly but were criticized for having exercised “poor judgment”.
Let me boldface that: “poor judgment”.
What else are examples of poor judgment? Well, how about singing “bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran”.
How about “poor taste”?
John McCain left his first wife to marry upwards: a younger, richer and hotter heiress of a booze fortune. Read more here.
The facts speak for themselves, McCain is the epitome of “what you see is NOT what you get” and a non-stop manifestation of poor judgment and worst taste.
I don’t for one second suggest that the Obama camp should unleash these messages, but folks like you and me who are sick of the nonsense spewing out of Palin’s trashy mouth sure can.

WatchMojo NewsletterSarah “trainwreck” Palin “quoted” Madeleine Albright in saying: “There’s a place in Hell reserved for women who don’t support other women”.
Problem? Well, for one, it’s downright ignorant. Imagine if Obama says the same about Blacks. But even more reason why it shows Palin does not deserve to breathe, let alone talk or be on a major ticket, is that it misquotes Albright. Here is the actual quote:
“There’s a place in Hell reserved for women who don’t help other women.”
