  • McCain has taken nearly $1.2 million in campaign contributions from the telephone utility and telecom service industries, more than any other Senator.

  • Who the fuck does this asshole think he's fooling? For any candidate for President to drool such complete full on lies like this and get away with it is beyond astounding. Is there any better example to show the ignorant wingnuts that the myth of the "liberal media" is as dead as Reagan? McCain is a pathetic jackass and he will say anything to become the GOP nominee.

  • Why is John McCain lying about Obama?

    John McCain says Obama wants to raise taxes on the middle class. In fact, Obama supports tax cuts of $1,000 for middle class Americans.

    That's right: Obama is in favor of immediate tax relief of $1,000 for middle class Americans.

    John McCain is a liar.

    As a Christian, I won't be voting for McCain. I don't vote for liars.

    Not even liars who can afford to show off $520 Ferragamo shoes while comparing their opponents to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears!

  • Fuck him, he received over 1.2 million dollars from special interest groups, and no one's going to call him out on that?!...

  • EXPOSE THIS PRICK!

  • lying is fun-damental!

  • "Special interests" is a term of art, which means everyone other than those who give money to John McCain.

    So it's true!

  • You could hear laughter coming from the audience when McCain in a most deluded way says that he doesn't take money from special interests groups...I would've laughed out loud too...What a joke of a man!

  • "According to the Center for Responsive Politics, McCain has taken nearly $1.2 million in campaign contributions from the telephone utility and telecom service industries, more than any other Senator. McCain sides with the telecom companies on retroactive immunity (for unconstitutional wiretapping of USA citizens)." - jonesreport dot com
