Hannity and Colmes 09:00pm
Interview - part3
TRANSCRIPT:
HANNITY: Let me ask about the negativity, in terms of the media. There's a recent study that came out: 57 percent of print and broadcast were negative against you. When it comes to Senator Obama —
C. MCCAIN: Only 57 percent? I thought it was more than that.
HANNITY: But, Senator Obama had more positive obviously, than was negative. I saw Senator Obama on "The View." I saw Michelle Obama on "The View." And then I saw you guys on "The View."
J. MCCAIN: You play the hand you're dealt. Fact is, you rely on a good sense of the American people. As we pound into this last week. Americans are starting to focus. That's why it's swinging our way, Sean
[]
J. MCCAIN: Elisabeth Hasselbeck, you know, who was with Sarah —
[]
HANNITY: We're great friends.
J. MCCAIN: She's a lonely person.
HANNITY: I'd be negligent if I wouldn't talk about Senator Biden's comments. That Senator Obama would be tested in the first six months. That there will be, mark my words, an international crisis. Now, there's been a lot of issues involving national security. I don't know if you heard this but, French President Sarkozy, today, used the term talking about Senator Obama's plan on Iran, basically naive and utterly immature, was the phrase he used. That's meeting with rogue dictators, Iran is a tiny country not a serious threat. Putting all that together, should America be concerned about his ability to be commander-in-chief?
J. MCCAIN: I think they should be concerned and I think they'll make a decision. But the point is that he has been wrong and he was wrong about the surge. He still won't admit that he's wrong. And he's wrong about — when he said that Iran is a tiny threat. He was wrong when he said that Georgia should exercise restraint.
The point is that Senator Obama has no experience and no background to make the judgments. And I wish that every American could hear the tape of what — the way that Senator Biden said that, he said, mark my words —
HANNITY: I have played that —
J. MCCAIN: — there will be an international crisis. Sean, because he's untested and he will have to be tested. The one thing about these people that we are up against — I've been tested and they know it.
HANNITY: Does that telegraph to the world — I mean, during the debates the issues that he voted to cut off funding for the troops during the war. That he —
J. MCCAIN: After pledging that he wouldn't.
HANNITY: He accused the troops of air-raiding villages and killing civilians. He said he'd pull out — I'll end this war in 2009. He's since adjusted that. What does that mean? Does that mean we'd lose the war?
J. MCCAIN: Well, when Harry Reid announced that he agreed with him, and there is no doubt that if we had done what Senator Obama wanted to do, we would have come home — our troops would have come home, there would have been more sectarian violence, an Al Qaeda beachhead, greater Iranian influence in the region and we probably would have had to gone back with further sacrifice. But, I think the other point here is that Senator Obama just — I mean — when I hear him say some of these things, for example, about Colombia — the reason why he was against the free trade agreement with our best friend in the whole hemisphere is because that labor leaders are being killed? That's an old saw that the union leaders drug out years ago. There has been dramatic improvement in Colombia. Colombia is helping us fight — the president of Colombia rescued three Americans who were being held captive by the FARC that are working with the people he would sit down with, Hugo Chavez.
HANNITY: Senator Obama seems to be preparing his victory speech. We've got all the ACORN controversy
J. MCCAIN: I guarantee you one thing — we'll be up late on election night and I guarantee you that rallies like these that are going on in the next seven days, we're going to win this election.
HANNITY: Are you worried about the ACORN controversy, voter fraud?
J. MCCAIN: Sure I am. Sure I'm worried about these controversies and I'm particularly worried in Ohio.
[]
HANNITY: The surge strategy was proven right.
C. MCCAIN: It worked. The surge worked.
HANNITY: I just disagreed with you on McCain-Feingold.
[]
HANNITY: And McCain-Kennedy.
[]
HANNITY: Senator, good to see you. Best of luck next week,
J. MCCAIN: Thank you.

The filth you spew was heard by the American people and was outrightly rejected for the extreme right wing propaganda it is.
