McCain: I am the Same Guy

The View, ABC 09/12/08

Joy: Well, you used to be more like that John, mind me calling you John. You used to be more of the maverick, and then you sort of turned.

McCain: In what way?

Joy: Well you became much more lockstep, I think, with your party with George Bush's policies. I don't see the old John McCain who use to really buck the system as much. Because I understand why, you want to get elected.

[laughter]

Joy: It's not the same man we love

McCain: You know, I've been through this liteney before when I say what specific area have I quote changed, Nobody can name it. I am the same person that I always was. I would be glad to have Whoopie do it. But the point is that I am the same person and I have the same principles and I have the same issues rather it be spending, rather it be spending, rather it be climate change, rather it be the conduct of the war in Iraq. Rather it be torture of prisoners. No matter what it is, and I'm fighting excess and wasteful spending I am the same guy, same guy

Wow -- thanks Joy for putting it to him! I can't wait until the debates! Go Obama/Biden!

[BagelsForever]

He's RIGHT! McCain IS the same man...as George Bush!

[Conservative77]

McCain and Obama are pretty much the same. Yeah, sounds alarming, go do your homework.

[allrequiredfields]

...and I love how whiny you all are. All you do is grasp desperately at anything you can possibly twist, because you've been hypnotized by the rhetoric of a handsome man with a deep voice. Sad. I'm utterly baffled at how dick-sucky america is over Obama; when has any politician ever done that well by us? I refuse to worship ANY politician.

We are doomed - not at the hands of Obama, but our own desperate insecurities, herding us together.

[allrequiredfields]

"whether" not "rather".

Well, one example where he changed is by his stance on Roe vs. Wade.

John Mccain is a hypocrite.He's using the same

dirty tactics that George W. Bush used on him

during the 2000 presidential election.His campain handlers are some of the same people that G.W. Bush used to run his corrupt and dirty campaign.He also is getting his advise from none other than Karl Rove.The master mind of dirty politics and deception.Wake America if John Mccain is elected,we will all pay a horrific price.John Mccain is the same as George W. Bush.The worst President in history.

Ross Perot Sr. of Dallas notes that the national debt of nearly $9.6 trillion increasing by over one billion dollars every day website = perotchart com. We are leaving our children and grandchildren with a burden they cannot possibly manage That is Bushs sad legacyRepublicans once-logical claim to being the party of small government has been eroded by Bushs presidency. While the Bush tax cuts continue to restrict government revenues, spending has soared for entitlement programs

LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES- MCCAIN=BUSH- He's not running for President to make this country a better place, he's running for President just for himself- he doesn't care about poor people, Katrina, Latinos, Blacks or Whites- He only wants the title on his Resume- 8 years of Bush, we can't let this old fart run our beautiful country- please get out and vote- do it for the new generations of americans, the deserve a brighter future!

[warrencurrier]

You are right that he is cog.

but to say that you wish a person dead is not right!!

furthermore such comments gives chances to other side to say people who support Obama are cruel.

Personally, I do not dislike Mr. McCain as a person. I'm pretty sure he is a good person. (whatever that really means)

I do not want HIM to run our country, as a president has the power to do.

I feel that Dr. Ron Paul is the best choice.

And given that he may not win, i shall HOPE for BHO.

And VOTE, Dr. Paul!!
