Matt Taibbi

Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi discusses the sad sight that is John McCain’s last campaign to be President, his failed PR stunt in the Baghdad market, his pandering to John Hagee and the Christianists, his waffling, flip-flopping, lying and scaremongering.

    good riddance. Often called Israel’s favorite senator, McCain can always be depended upon to support Istaeli wars.

    what is amazing to me about the america/israel relationship is how a tiny little terrorist nation has, through its hordes within her borders, been able to force america and its politicians to their knees. maybe one day america can wake up from this nightmare and change our foreign policy to reflect what is in our interest in the middle east.

    then again maybe not…economic armageddon might be the price of freedom.

    “He should have a few things to say once he is done”

    Herein lies the real issue, does it not? By compromizing with the Bush administration time and time again, rather than talking truthfully, McCain has damaged not only his chances but his honor.
