Not quite... the guy who put on the show couldn't tell McCain the third question because McCain wasn't even there. Whether he "cheated" or not he violated the rules of the forum, and violated his word. Just the kind of guy that we need as president. Actually McCain talked about bear DNA...

Nothing wrong with conservatives (not that there are that many of us anymore) my reference was to Republicans which could not be further from conservative. But as for your statement, if that's true then Gore was president. Don't think so.

Here's what a five year Justice Department probe found regarding dead people voting: In 5-Year Effort, Scant Evidence of Voter Fraud http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/12/washington/12fraud.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1219176574-7ZsGX53N5WcWpDnRxjWWwg&oref=slogin BUT after this emails...

This is my favorite thread. Xenophobic Republicans attacking a decision of the majority because they're outraged that a plant has gotten rid of a holiday instituted by labor unions and socialists that was achieved via a general strike. My irony meter just exploded.

The terms being that one candidate would be sequestered. We'll never know whether McCain heard the questions in advance because he violated the terms of the forum. As for it being impossible for McCain to have heard the questions, I'd like to introduce you to this new invention called "radio."

Nope. $10 billion a month could reduce that 25% to 20% to 15%, and has the added bonus of not killing our guys and other people.

My favorite McCain policy is the one where he will pay the debt down with the money we save by not being in Iraq (ie. debt). In that vein, I've decided to pay my credit card with my credit card.

Uhhh... no. The Rep's want government involved even in our sex lives, and oppose state's rights (for example California's attempts at emissions regulations). "Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger wants California to implement its own vehicle emission standards to fight global warming. At first glance...

Yes McCain was certainly direct -- Remember the bear DNA study McCain complained about at the faith forum? It turns out that he voted for it. http://www.factcheck.org/outrageous_exaggerations.html

McCain: "By the way in case you hadn't noticed it, the French, 80 percent, we love to imitate the French but 80 percent of their electricity is generated by nuclear power. If they can do it and reprocess we can do it my friends. And by the way if you hadn't noticed we know have a pro-American...

Actually three days ago the FEC just affirmed McCain's right to withdraw from the public financing system, just as long as he gets FEC approval. The Reagan appointed FEC appears to have little concern that he borrowed against public money in apparent violation of the McCain-Feingold financing...

The non-denial denial clinches it for me, but whether he knew the questions or not, McCain violated the forum rules.

I like the fact that Obama is taking less public money. Additionally he had said that he would opt-in to public financing only if McCain did the same -- and McCain has opted out. Now, would you like to excuse McCain's violation of the Saddleback political forum rules with another dodge...

No defense necessary -- McCain violated the agreed upon terms of the forum by not being in the "cone of silence."

And the standard non-denial denial: When asked if McCain overheard anything, Charlie Black, a McCain adviser who was with him at the time, told CNN: "We were in motorcade until 5:30 p.m. ET; then a holding room in another building with no TV." http://tinyurl.com/5d8mjj

Well it's certainly up there -- he never should have taken the Republicans -- any Republicans -- at their word.

Mr. Warren started by asking Mr. McCain, “Now, my first question: Was the cone of silence comfortable that you were in just now?” Mr. McCain deadpanned, “I was trying to hear through the wall.” Interviewed Sunday on CNN, Mr. Warren seemed surprised to learn that Mr...

ORLANDO, Fla. — Senator John McCain was not in a “cone of silence” on Saturday night while his rival, Senator Barack Obama, was being interviewed at the Saddleback Church in California. Members of the McCain campaign staff, who flew here Sunday from California, said Mr...

Do some research on the phrase "southern strategy" and let us know what you find.

If Republicans didn't have strawmen to comfort them, they'd have nothing at all.
