I've heard a lot of people think that way about his slip up -- how it is indeed a prelude, and how it's directed at us more so than we think. You could be absolutely right.

After all, didn't it sell us a fake and phony war in Iraq? I’m glad SOMEONE agrees with me about the media, and how it could spin anything. After all, didn’t it sell us a fake and phony war in Iraq?

The man has so many homes he can't rightly recall an exact number. He may have gone through traumatic things, but that's the past. Is he capable of leading our country? I don't think he is. I think the slip is a prelude to our own society becoming prisoners right in front of our eyes, yet not knowing it was going to happen. We're progressing closer and closer to socialism and everyone is clueless. While I admire his servitude to our country, I have no sympathy for him.

I don't see him as "bad" and Obama as "good", because that's just media oversimplification. The media can take anything and spin it anyway they like, just to brainwash society into fulfilling an agenda, whether political or otherwise. You can't really trust what they say or the perceptions they try to instill upon us. Take it with a grain of salt when they say "McCain is ________", "Obama is __________". With my mini-rant out of the way, part of me does feel a bit sorry for his slip-up, but maybe he gets into a particular state of mind in order to rally with the crowds. Maybe that's the approach he uses to motivate himself. Just another viewpoint to think about :) I don’t agree with his politics, but I respect and admire the fact that he was a prisoner of war and had the strength and courage to keep on fighting.

I will assume it was out of sympathy for him, since everything I said is true (and I can prove it.) I know it's your blog and you can allow or not allow whatever you want, but, when have you ever tried to stop someone's opinion from being heard, or when have you been selective about letting people speak? Strange. Why did you not allow my last comment on this topic? I will assume it was out of sympathy for him, since everything I said is true (and I can prove it.)

He's very fluff-and-stuff. And very unconnected with all of us. I just don't hate him for it now. I agree with you. He’s very fluff-and-stuff. And very unconnected with all of us.
