The Real (Rich)John McCain

"The REAL McCain is a multimillionaire who owns ten luxurious homes. The REAL McCain backs President Bush's tax cuts for big corporations. The REAL McCain empathizes only with the interests of our nation's wealthy minority, not its money-strapped majority. But far too many are buying into McCain's deceit because the corporate press won't present the whole picture, so we created this video to educate the public about the REAL McCain."

Remember this. McCain didn't work for this wealth. He married into it after an extramarital relationship with his current wife Cindy Hensley, the rich beer heiress. His first wife was seriously injured in an automobile accident while he was a POW. She refused to allow this information to be sent to him, for she feared what it might do to his morale. When he returned to find her on crutches and overweight, he began to cheat on her, eventually finding Cindy Hensley to cavort with. He married her two months after his divorce. After all she was wealthy with good political connections, so why not go for it? So far it has worked well for him.

Yet Another McCain "MIs-speak"

Do I have to say more? The first serious international crisis since the Cold War? What is it with this man? Is he taking the voters, to paraphase P.T. Barnum, as suckers born every minute, or is he trying to imitate his hero and the current Republican Deity, Ronald Reagan? Then again, is it something much more serious?

If he is, indeed, suffering from old age, brought on more quickly by the tortuous years spent in a North Vietnamese prison, I shudder to think what his days as a president might be like. If, heaven help us, he were to win and then have someone like Rev. Mike "let's change the Constitution to be more like the Bible" Huckabee as vice president, I can't imagine the consequences.

Bush's War Strikes Home

Russia has invaded Georgia. The Bush regime has condemned Russia for using missiles and strategic bombers against that country and for blocking attempts at mediation. Sound familiar? Of course it does. Bush invaded a country a few years back, used strategic bombers and missiles, and blocked attempts to avert his invasion.

It is a bit difficult to take the high road in this crisis, because the United States is now guilty of the same conduct. Bush is quoted as having told Russian President, Putin,

" "The violence is endangering regional peace, civilian lives have been lost and others are endangered. We have urged an immediate halt to the violence and a stand-down by all troops. We call for an end to the Russian bombings," a grim Bush told reporters. He did not take any questions."

Of course Bush didn't take any questions. A reporter might have asked if this sounded familiar to him. Thousands of civilian lives have been lost as a result of Bush's unprovoked invasion of Iraq, and the Middle East is in turmoil. The Russians are probably laughing at his feeble attempt to be "grim." Basically, the U.S. in this situation is like a eunuch in a harem.

The Russian invasion of Georgia is just the first incident in which we find ourselves unable to take the high road. There will be others. The world will thumb its nose at us and move on. We cannot be outraged, when our prisoners are mistreated. We cannot condemn others because this misguided, unprincipled, and outlaw Bush Regime has eaten from the same trough as all of the rogue nations of the past and present. It will take years to purge our world image of this poor excuse for a president and world leader.
