McCain in MoveOn ad

MoveOn has a new ad that ties John McCain to the Bush administration’s “victory is just around the corner” approach to selling the Iraq war. Will that tired line still work five years later? We’ll find out in November.

Watch it:

John McCain is , was , and always will be a fraud , a liar , and a disgrace both as military member and as a politician . It is difficult to identify a parallel between the “POW McCain” and the McCain of today who is one of the strongest cheerleaders for the Iraq debacle and the Criminal Bush Gang who took us there .
  We need to know every detail of his exprience as a POW , not just the fiction we have been fed repeatedly until most of us believe without question . I would think that if Mr. McCain really went through so much Hell in Hanoi , he would not be the subhuman he is today .

And so….. how many more times are we, who were against this war (ahem, occupation) from the start, have to say we told you so you ass holes. 

And at what cost?  Jesus, you gawd damn idiots, bring our men and women home and lets pay the poor Iraqis cash for the damage this country has done to theirs.  And the Afghanis too.

And then lets try our leaders for war crimes.  How many more memos are going to be leaked before the stupid public comes to the realization that our leaders, including Rice and I’m sorry to say, Powell were gawd damn liars.

War on the installment plan.

Bu$h Inc.‘s marketing plan couldn’t work without a willing Congress. Change “we the people” to “we the peed on” and you have the new American democracy.

GWBush                 as dumb as door knobs
John Mccain                   a f…ing Nazi
Adam Pitman                   Bush’s bitch
Hannity             a traitor to the nation
Limbaugh               psychopathic egomaniac

Mix and match ( you can’t get it wrong, almost)
