We do but some people don't like posting stuff there cause no one will look, and thus the objective of getting a rise out of someone won't happen.

It's all a ploy. McCain doesnt care.

if this one gets postponed, first this one, the the republicans try to weasle their way out of more.

You can't just put your campaign on hold because your ratings are dropping.

Straight up political BS. Probably the worst decision in this campaign to date. This is gonna hurt him badly and if he doesn't show for the debates he's definitely a moron.

John McCain postpones his campaign to help out a country in crisis. :blah:
Are you fucking kidding me? :rofl::rofl:

Who falls for this shit? :ugh:

it is better to be a part of the actual vote for or against something (you know...actually taking a stand) as opposed to just noting you were there or in essence pleading the fifth.

We need a decision maker not someone who sits on the sidelines and plays armchair quarterback as to how the other guy is doing it wrong but when they have the chance they sit back and do nothing.
