I am not sure what is more troubling - Palin dodging this question, or doing it sitting right next to John McCain. Anyone else think they see the realization that his campaign is hurtling over the bridge to nowhere flash over his face? Perhaps I am imagining things. This is…
Al Jazeera (yes, Al Jazeera) has taken the time to interview some of the Ohio voters who are driven by bigotry and ignorance. No doubt there are many others. Now it's time for the mainstream corporate media to do the same, to shame these people into silence. Sunshine is a…
Sam Donaldson recently argued that the problem with 72-year old John McCain (referring to McCain's confusion and his erratic unfocused ways) is due to his "age." I vehemently disagree with Donaldson (who, at 74, is two years older than McCain). Blaming mental incoherence on "age" is a form of bigotry.…
Why should we ask John McCain harsh questions? Because we need to even the playing field. You see, if Barack Obama had McCain’s background, ignorance and bad character, the election would have been over months ago. The news media is holding back, though. Those media barbecues appear to be paying off.
So it’s time to even the playing field. Since the media keeps asking these sorts of disparaging and insulting questions to Barack Obama, it’s time to ask these same sorts of questions to John McCain. I admit that a few of these are outrageously unfair, just like many of the questions repeatedly posed to Obama.
Most of these questions are fair, though, and the news media has refused to dig deep and really get the answers Americans need. If you have additional questions that the media needs to ask John McCain, please submit them in the comments. I’d like to make this post a place where reporters are free to visit for ideas. As you can see, I’ve attached explanatory links to most of the proposed questions.
Unlike Barack Obama, McCain has a lot of explaining to do about what kind of person he has shown himself to be and portrayed himself to be. Let’s get started:
Generally Puzzling
Isn’t it true that you personally now oppose several bills that you yourself co-sponsored?
Why is your smile so creepy and fake?
Do you really believe that the President of the U.S. virtually functions as a dictator?
General Character Deficits…
