Bush Backs McCainPosted on Mar 5, 2008
Republicans are starting to line up behind their nominee, including the president, who officially gave his blessing at the White House on Wednesday, along with an offer to help John McCain campaign. That couldn’t make Democrats happier, who long to depict McCain as what Howard Dean called “another out-of-touch Bush Republican.”

Since when is an airforce pilot entitled to be called “Commander in Chief” of the armed forces??? Bush, McCain…... no longer serving their country but usurping their roles…...

The Repug’s know that they have little chance this time and recycling a loser from the last election is sufficient to keep them in the running.
But they can still win if the Democrast hand the election to them on a plate, uhh! So far, they are already virtually doing that by fighting each other…...

The Democratic nominee will have plenty of A/V clips to use against McCain. His embracing GWB, “Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran,” [sung to the tune of the Beach Boys’ Barbara Ann] and “That would be fine with me [if we’re in Iraq for a hundred years],” have to be used effectively to show that he does not have the temperament to act as Commander in Chief of a country that is tired of this unnecessary and costly folly in Iraq.

So-called Pres. Bush, the author of the illegal, immoral war, should go back under his rock! Why would anyone want him on their side? Especially McCain! The past 8 years, have been a disgrace, for this country. We’ve had enough of this moron!

Talk about having an albatross around your neck! Why would anyone seek such an endorsement?

“The fact is, the American people want change, not another out-of-touch Bush Republican”...
It should read “out-of-touch, out-of-mind Bu$h Republican”.

McCain can add this endorsement to his endorsement from Hagee, and the Democrats won’t have to spend any money on the general election campaign.

In the pic, they look like two walking coat-hangers carrying those boring suits….... but in front of the White House Bush looked like he was welcoming Ronald Reagan back, uhh. “Hey grand-dad…”
