John McCain didn't love America

[footballroolz2]

What a dumb fucking cunt, seriously goddamn media, i hate our country, its full of stuck up im better than you people... NOBAMA-what has this bitch done for you lately? i dont wanna hear your shit...

[CloeBuckingham]

Basically, McCain is saying he was in love with America nearly his entire adult life.

Michelle Obama wasn't proud of America in her adult life until her husband started to win in the presidential campaign.

It's totally different.

[mherb62]

I love this country, and I've NEVER left it. You wrong wingers will fall over dizzy from all the spinning you do. It's BS he had to leave it to appreciate it. He hates America!

[TheGreatGizzo]

that fucking nerd hosting and most people, will never understand what McCain is saying. I'm not voting for him, but I respect him.

"I didn't REALLY love America until I was deprived of her company."

This makes perfect sense to me and is,in my opinion a very wise thing to say.

[starone091705]

"I was not in love with America until I was deprived of her company" 1:10

pundits could spin that into a negative essily, even if it wasn't intended that way.

[Kevbo1776]

indeed, unfortunately that is how our media is today. thank you for opening our eyes to how subjective our media is.

[EasyEs]

God it is amazingly clear that what he meant. Anyone who travels to shit holes in the world comes back looking at a country with new eyes and a new appreciation. it is like saying you didn't know what love is until you met that one person. You may have thought you where in love before but this puts it in a new perspective.

His words can be scrutinized just like Michelle's were. In fact, more so since he's a politician and should be good with words. You can't have it both ways. Michelle's comments were incredibly clear as well when heard in context, and she's not even running. It was cowardly to bash her.

[edwenie]

Okay Starone, but here's the difference (even now that the election is over):

-Michelle Obama said for the first time she was "proud of her country". Basically she said she was proud of her country because of the support it was giving her husband.

-John McCain said that he didn't love his country until he realized how many more freedoms it gives as compared to other countries. It's not so bad to finally love your country after fighting for it as it is to love it after it supports your spouse

[miroku105]

holy crap these people are just trying to screw over mccain

and all of you are fallowing for it

he is saying that he never really understood what america has to offer and what america gives to him until it was taken away

in fact none of you will be able to understand completley until it is ripped away from you

Mccain, having gone through that experience knows how valuable our freedom in america is and he wants to protect and ensure such a great thing for everyone else

[miroku105]

i meant to say that u were falling for it and following what ever you hear on tv =P

[JUNIOR4YOU]

Mcflpfloper!Want to president of a country you did not love??Very strange!!

[ronaldf2006]

I really didn't love America until I was deprived of her company. Wow, I've always love America. I didn't have to leave America to start loving it. What's wrong with John McCain?

[LordXmen2k]

It took the VC for John McCain to love this country, what a disgrace.

[Countme2]

In fairness, this should not be taken in a wrong context the same way that Michelle Obama's remark is being twisted around. The mere fact the McCain risked his life meant that he loved what America stands for. Of course, that does not make him a better president. Thank you.

[anseleye]

The point is (willfinal & others who don't quite get it) is that you Rep fools continue to attack Michelle Obama for saying she is now "proud of her country". Even Mrs. McCain has said this means she isn't patriotic. Well, here is MR. PATRIOTIC himself, claiming that he didn't always love America. Get a clue people.

[willfinal]

wellllll i never said that and i completely understand that. i don't favor either of them, just saying it's a stupid accusation.

[willfinal]

why does it matter when he started loving america? ever hear of the saying you dont know what you got till its gone?

now im sure all of u obama lovers interpret that as "i was a nazi and i hated freedom". he never said he HATED america

and sure, joining the military doesnt display pride in ones country whatsoever right? at least he had the guts to tell the truth.

[LordXmen2k]

McCain is an adulterer who abandon his wife and children for 20+ years younger rodeo queen Cindy whos worth hundreds of millions of dollars in beer money.

John McHypocrit should kiss the ground he walks on, only in America a "fool and a fraud" like him would be so lucky

[hnsez]

Nothing in America had earned the Adult John McCain's love in the 31 years before he was shot down? Nothing? Not winning WW 2? Not freeing millions of Jews from the Nazi's? Not the fact that we feed and defend the world? Not even when McCain graduated from the United States Naval Academy?  Not even McCain's grandfather and father who were Admirals in the United States Navy taught him to love America? Nothing? I certainly don't want this blind pessimist as commander in chief of the USA.

[Kevbo1776]

what he is trying to say is that he took it for granted, just like we all do. We will never truly understand how great this nation is until we experience life without it.
