By Andrew Belonsky July 18, 2008 at 6:07pm · 11 comments


As Barack Obama plans a massive trip abroad and touts his foreign policy philosophy, John McCain has released his first attack ad, which attempts to cast doubt on Obama’s commitment to international causes.

    McBush is desperate.

    Am I the only one that finds the ZOOMNONTH spam comments annoying?

    If McCain has lost his mind for saying the surge is working then so has Obama since he is now ‘refining’ his position on the surge to be less critical of the surge due to its apparent successes.

    Just because we hate Bush doesn’t mean we have to pretend to dislike everything he supported.

    No. 3 Key: No you’re not. I find them annoying and just plain spam which I guess QUEERTY has no problem with being posted over and over again on the site. I made a comment about it the other day and another poster replied they’d rather read the spam comments than the comments of some of the stupid people who post here. So I just glance at the articles here and then it’s off to Towleroad and other sites.

    McCain’s foreign policy will be a continuance of Bush’s foreign policy. We’ll continue to impose our views on most of the world and use force whenever necessary. If you’re happy with Bush, you’ll be very pleased with McCain.

    Republican Foreign Policy: Make war first. Ask questions later, with torture. Refuse to talk with anyone who doesn’t agree. Don’t even try to make peace.

    Democratic Foreign Policy: Try to make peace. Make war only if necessary. Talk and listen to anyone, especially if they don’t agree.

    Making peace is hard work. It take discipline and time and investment. And, it might even result in reduced profits for the weapons mongers. But in the long run, it is the only way to survive.

    It boggles the mind that Mad Ave types are paid zillions of dollars to come up with a slogan like “Country First,” easily the worst political slogan I have EVER heard in my life.

    should have added: it sounds like a mortgage company. not the best association for the politician most closely assoicated with the savings and loan scandal of the ’80s.

    There’s something creepy and odd about McCain’s ads. Even is “Approve this message” tag sounds weird.

    Who’da thunk that McCain would use the phrase “support the troops”? I thought that was dead circa 2006.

    pfffffft!

    Maliki GAVE Obama such a GIFT agreeing with his 16 mionth withdrawl, McSame’s paltry ad will do NOTHING.
