    John McCain, the new Ronald Reagan?

    Pretty Good Timetable

    I don’t mean in a good way either.  I feel bad for anyone with Alzheimer’s but John McCain has worse memory issues than Ronald Reagan.  That’s really not fair, even to Ronald Reagan, his memory problems didn’t start until late in his presidency.  More likely McCain is a pathological liar.  Maybe he’s just a bit deranged.

    So you were probably thinking the other day, after all the chastising McCain has directed toward Obama for pushing a timetable for withdrawing from Iraq he wouldn’t go on CNN and supported a timetable himself.  He did, clever fellow. One day McCain said he thought sixteen months was a “pretty good timetable”, the next say he claimed never to have said the word “timetable.”  Funny.

    But wait there’s more.  McCain is too weak to keep his policy straight what with the chronic changes and denials in his statement.  His shoot from the hip demeanor that the media seems to love so much must certainly lead to some interesting backtracking in the McCain camp.  Why isn’t the media calling him out on this?  Who knows.  The media has always liked McCain for some reason and seem willing to give him a pass for just about any foible.

    The Real McCain 2

    Make no mistake McCain will be worst than the currently assumed worst president.  How anyone could believe this guy is beyond me.  If he’s such an obvious liar then even the staunchest Republican’s should question him.  If he suffering from memory impairment do we really need someone sitting in the Oval office who is going to forget what the big red button is for?  No thanks.

    This is a guy whose memory is so sharp that he has missed more than half of the roll-call votes since January 2007.  At this point it is more than any other senator including Senator Tim Johnson who spent most of 2007 recuperating from a brain hemorrhage.  He even forgot to vote on money for Iraq and Afghanistan and the new GI Bill which he opposes.  If he can’t be bothered to do his current job how can he be expected to act as president should he manage to win somehow?
