QUESTION: Are you proud of the work and the work and the leadership of the commander in chief in this war?
MCCAIN: Yes I am. I think the President has led with great clarity and I think he's done a great job leading the country, don't you all? [MSNBC, Hardball College Tour, 4/23/03]
MCCAIN: The President and I agree on most issues. There was a recent study that showed I voted with the President over 90 percent of the time, higher than a lot of my even Republican colleagues. [Fox News Channel, 5/22/03]
MCCAIN: The fact is that I have agreed with President Bush far more than I have disagreed, and on the transcendent issues, the most important issues of our day, I have been totally in agreement and support of President Bush. [Meet the Press, 6/19/05]

I wish I could actually find the "The president and I agree on most issues. There was recently a study that showed that I voted with the president over 90 percent of the time," thing without just the snippet... You know, in context. *sigh*
As far as I know there were three major disagreements between Bush and McCain: Immigration Tax cuts for the rich Global warming McCain has practically reversed his opinion on these issues. Therefor he now agrees with Bush 100%.
"A Measure of Media Bias", a December 2004 study conducted by Tim Groseclose of the University of California, Los Angeles and Jeff Milyo of the University of Missouri, stated that: " One surprise is the Wall Street Journal, which we find as the most liberal of all 20 news outlets [studied].
btw, Tater686 - there are liberal as well as conservative media bias to be sure, but that doesn't make either way wrong or less patriotic. It's just different perspectives & solutions of issues we face. Take a look at the articles and let's discuss the issues. If you feel the conservatives are offering better solutions this time around, I'd love to hear your reasoning on that. The WSJ article in particular points out why Reaganonmics worked initially & why it doesn't anymore.
HAHAHA can we see the rest of these interviews? What question do you think he was responding to when he made those statements?
The interviewers were questioning his loyalty to the party in 2005 when he voted 78% along party lines. 78% may still sound high, unless you have a clue how the system works. Over 50% of the issues that are voted upon have a unanimous or close to unanimous vote. McCain sided with Bush LESS than many democrats that year.
unfortunatley, McCain has changed his stance on many issues in order to appeal to stauch conservatives... he was against off shore drilling now he's for it, as just one example. I use to like McCain, but he's not the same guy who is running now and I definitely do not like Palin who is too extremist in her views and only a heart beat of a 72 year old - 4-5 times cancer patient. And I don't want another 4 years of the last 8.
