There Seems To Be A Pattern...

I didn't watch McCain's speech because after watching Palin I knew it would only upset me. But I was able to catch the highlights from CNN. Apparently he seems to be stuck in the past. Have you noticed that the only good thing that he and his peers can say about him was that he is a war veteran/POW from Vietnam. Now, I give him much respect for fighting for our country and for being a POW, but just because you were in the army doesn't mean that you will be a better commander in chief. It doesn't make McCain more qualified. That war was over 40 years ago and the last time I checked, being in the army wasn't a requirement for being president of the United States. I think that he may have some post war tramatic syndrome that causes him to stay in the past. (no jokes)

In a way, it kind of worrries me. He said and I quote "I would rather lose an election, than lose a war." That statement says to me that he is for the war on Iraq and will continue it until we "win." Last time I checked, the majority of the American people do not agree with the war in Iraq and wanted to bring troops home. I think it's funny...I was just watching Palin give a speech in Michigan and that's all she could talk about. They need to address more of the issues that are effecting the economy.
