Countdown - McCain's Abramoff Connections and an Opening Act

[Sonofspam64]

Bob Riley is made of Teflon, just like his lookalike Ronald Reagen was. Old Bob Riley spent the last two years of his governorship shutting down every non-indian casino in Alabama. The Indians have a monopoly now and about 4,500 citizens were left stunned and unemployed during this recession by their Teflon Governor.

Shame on McCain for keeping Riley out of the report.

rachel is so hot

[stevesky369]

shit glad to see this stuff is getting coverage. check out my video... more about mccain and his past with abramoff

[GoldieAZ49]

Because of John McCain, people like Jack Abramoff went to jail.

If Barack Obama wants to have a discussion about truly questionable associations, let's start with his relationship with the unrepentant terrorist William Ayers a leader of the Weather Underground, a terrorist group responsible for countless bombings against targets including the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon

Then we can talk about his mentor for 20 years, Jeremiah Wright, and his anti American preaching.

[EdugeBDroN]

U cant compare a young kid that was upset at un unjustified War and a abject excuse of a human being abramoff is a monster same kind of Delay and Cheney  they all would ahve made fine Nazis

[saully1966]

Yeah, I'm guessing if any of it were true we would have heard about it already. Get real, man! All I asked is how Nader made a living. I'll ask you the same question: how does John McCain make a living? Oh, wait I'll help you out, crash a bunch of fighter jets for the Navy and end up in a prison camp. Get out, cheat on your wife with a young rich girl, dump your wife because she has been disfigured by a car accident, work for your new father-inlaw, and then get into politics. Get real!

[nader85021]

you make it sound easy. i guess busting a shoulder, knocking out most of ure teeth, and being crippled for 5 years and eating sh*t, escaped ure mind and also refusing to leaving 2 years into it. Mccain's life isnt devoted in politics but military service. He didnt do any of this for political gains, just like his father and his grandfather, or his POW collegues,orson swindle,james stockdale and others.Bc of his disfigurement he could move high up in ranks in the navy so he chose politics to...

[nader85021]

...serve the ppl. I am not giving reasons on why he should be elected, but the differences between their experiences. obama is intelligent and has been through many difficulties, but the path he took are the same as most politicians we have seen, and he isnt anything special. McCain is one of the few who has served a long time in the military and has been heavily decorated. Criteria such as courage, integrity and strength has been taken out of politics, and we have mccain who has shown it as pow

[nader85021]

and if u havent heard of rezko than u havent been paying attention. Look up why obama bought a huge chunk of land illegally for rezko and pleaded bad judgement. And coincidently he got millions from rezko for his election for illinois state senate. He also threw out many of the petitions of his opponents illegally but no action was taken. I am not pointing just to obama but many are practicing this and my point obama is a typical politician and there is nothing new about him like he claims

[politicalfarce]

John McCain's campaign is run and funded by lobbyists.

[nader85021]

and so is obama

[saully1966]

How does Nader make a living?

[nader85021]

this isnt a defense of ralph nader but john mccain. If anyone tries to connect mccain, who was one of the few republican senator who really put the lobbyists like abramoff in jail and tying with him is ludicrous. A lot of senators got donations from him, that doesnt mean mccain was on board with him, if u really want a story of corruption, i would suggest look at "chicago politics" and "rezko" and type in obama you can find a lot that is worse than abramoff.

[internationallawman]

Oh, I forgot to say this:

McCain is a lying, corrupt, mentally ill, sleaze ball. He dumped his wife to marry someone younger and ultrarich. He was bought off by Charles Keating in the Savings and Loan catastrophe, he was involved with Abramoff, he and his campaign are run by lobbyists.

He is a phony. The only reason he got the nomination is that the other Republican candidates were either lunatics or were pretending to be lunatics to appeal the Republican base, which consists of lunatics.

[internationallawman]

No, no, no. *You* are a wingnut. *We* are moonbats.

If you're going to plaster the internet with idiotic wingnut tripe, at least try and get the lingo right.

[kevjo66]

Olbermann has become a cartoon character for the extreme left. Nobody but the wingnuts of the democratic party takes this guy seriously.

[truthlovver]

olbermann criticizes cunningham for, among the rest, calling obama a "hack." yet olbermann is a hack for obama. this adds hypocrisy to the list of flaws in olbermann's coverage. actually, truth is, the hypocrisy olbermann has been plain to see regardless of this episode.

[dryorkmd]

Long Live Willie Cunningham!!!

[souljaEXVOTO]

those kids behind that crazy guy in Cincinnati made me laugh because they were like, WTF? like in that No You Can't video. In their hearts they love Obama but their parents made them stand here & hold these McCain signs and listen to this loser introduce him. poor kids.

[tgrigsby7]

McCain is Bush-Lite. He's not clean, he's not above corruption, he's not against screwing the public. He's only interested in appearances, and he proved that with Abramoff, with Keating, and frankly, with his support of Bush's treasonous acts in the highest office.
