Why aren't McCain's gaffes getting much coverage?

    Really? Was McCain a member of Gramm's church? Did Gramm baptize his children?

    It says that both candidates get caught saying stupid things.

    Is Wright a financial pirate who has caused billions of dollars in damage to the U.S. financial system?

    Why do you even bother? I've never seen someone's arguments get so easily eviscerated as yours.

    There's that, I suppose.

    Mizzou's new catchphrase: Not as dumb as Hondo.

    And I'm the one who is usually accused of starting the name calling...

    Poster: You're dumb.

    Mizzou: Fuck you, you fucking cocksucker.


    Perhaps that's why you get in trouble. Just a thought.

    It's truly amazing how close-minded people who claim to be liberals are.

    I'm not saying I haven't done it in the past, but I'm not here.

    I presented an opposing viewpoint, and called no one names.

    Yeah, I guess it's better to be a white, suburbanite Republican who claims to listen to rap music. I'd be open-minded then, right?

    Actually, never mind. I don't want to do that. That would make me the biggest poseur in America.

    OK. So, both candidates say dumb things. Which candidate had a major news station alter a candidates answer to a question so that the candidate would not appear stupid?

    You pull this shit all the time.

    If my guy's tie/misdeed < your guy's tie/misdeed, that means we can completely ignore mine.

    Laura Bush's vehicular homicide? IGNORE, because it's not as egregious as Ted Kennedy's.

    Rev. Hagee's outrageous statements? IGNORE, because he wasn't as "close" to McCain as Wright was to Obama . . . although McCain sought Hagee's endorsement for more than a year.
