Let’s call Nash McCabe. I don’t see a single lapel pin between them, do you?

Why isn’t John McCain patriotic? Does he hate America?
But it’s OK when Republicans and the media [asking about flag lapel pins] don’t wear flag lapel pins. Because we all know they’re patriotic. It’s just not OK when Democrats don’t wear them. Then that’s news!
No more “In Memoriams”, crooksandliars! Please don’t put them up anymore. They were the only good things this hack with the unspellable last name ever did. But the only thing in memoriam now is his credibility.
Anyone else notice that Steph looks like he hasn’t had much sleep in the past few days?
Well, welll, welll George “Sneakey” Stephanopoulos, you are up to your old games, aren’t you, chap! I could barely stomach that pathetic love fest with John McCain this morning. I am just thankful that Charlie Gibson wasn’t around to give a big slobbery kiss to John McCain to thank him for promising not to raise his precious taxes. I tell you if that 3 way ganging up on Obama in the debate backfires and Barak wins the Pennsylvania primary, I will be happy as a clam! I will be as happy as a hippo in a hammock! George Stephanopoulos, in the words of the ebullient Rev. Al Sharpton, “YOUUU SHOOOULDD BE FIREDDDDDD!” Also, dear friends, I would like to recommend a couple of good political articles. Here is a good article on potentially the most masterful political mind on the web today…a young man named Chistopher Humphrey:

and here is an excellent article for both fans of politics and music as Elton John and Cat Stevens speak on some important social and political issues:

George Stephenopolis, Pumpkinhead, Tweety, Shit Fumes, should all be “brought to justice” for war crimes along with the Government
Oh, the Stephy/McCain love fest was this morning? I missed it, darn. [snark]
So did Stephy ask McSame any of the tough questions? Just asking.
Tweety can be okay sometimes. Sometimes he surprises me. George Stupidpoopsalotsis (”Do you think Adolf Hitler loved America as much as you do, Senator Osama… er Obama?”) and Charlie Gibblits (”don’t all answer at once… errr… I have no idea how to conduct a debate… Zzzz… McCain took my pills….Zzzz”) have no redeeming qualities.
To be fair, Nash McCabe already ruled out voting for John McCain. It said so in the same news report that initially stated she had trouble supporting Obama. The problem is that she was an obvious Hillary shill, not that she was a Republican.

Nah!
Ratface @ 10:
and I was hoping to be surprised… [snark]
Covering TV again?
“They started it!” - C&L
“And that’s supposed to make it OK?” - anyone with half a brain
These traitorous freaks in the media MUST be called on thier lies and partisanship.
Get fired up!!
Alright. I’ll shut up.
Once again I would like to thank all the people who watched this shit, so I didn’t have to. Thank You Again…
my gawd, which of these 2 hates America more!?!
Without their fawning and trivial distractions, pundits would have nothing to talk about but the pressing issues of the day. Eeeeeeewwwwwwwww!
They hate America and all it stands for.
.. but we already knew that ..
.. sigh ..
Ah, the flag as a tool for subjugating the weak-minded….
Very Nazi. Very republican.
Nixon loved flag pins.
George is NOT a Real American.
Sean Hannity’s going to be mighty mad at his Lapdog Puppy for not wearing his lapel pin.
Leslie [Bitter Elitist Hussein] @ 2:
not all Dems, it seems to follow only one candidate
McSame and many of his party members do not wear pins on a regular basis. this all stinks of rove to me. make a big issue out of tissue and slober on it often enough to make it stick. if anyone had the time and inclination to actually count and or record all the weapos of mass distration we have been given since 2000, the number would probably astound us.
Stephie gives prostitutes a bad reputation.
WOW, John McCain looked so uncomfortable every time he opened his mouth.
Our only chance to beat him (with the media love fest going on and on and on about him) will be during the debates in the fall. He looks and sounds as if he is lying.
Americans still care about lying? Right?
Why was McCain all giggly this morning? Not very Presidential.
If Obama shows up to an interview dressed like an Uncle Sam recruiting poster, would the media call him patriotic or a pimp? Enquiring minds want to know
Bit NOLA @ 20:
That’s the way I see it too. Good point.
Here’s what I noticed during “This Week with Curious George” during his round table discussion. I noticed that HE was being defensive and circled the wagons. He had all of his usual regulars pat his little head and tell him that he didn’t do anything wrong. Cokie never seems so animated defending his little George “Charcter Matters!” she kept saying. I was even surprised that Donaldson didn’t understand the revoltion many of us had at the ‘gotcha’ questions at the start of the debate on Wed.
So have the MsM media gotten the message? I think they did, actually, loud and clear. I just think that it fell on deaf ears. I think the MsM think they know what’s good for us and think that we should be focusing on News-tainment topics rather than real substance.
Quick! to the idiot mobile!
we must inform the losers!
You know who loved flag pins? Mike Logan on Law and Order. He was a democrat, too. And he had a habit of punching out politicians…
Go ahead…google McCain in images mode. You won’t find one single picture of him with a flag pin unless one has been added since the debate.
They are anti-goofey goobers
You know, if the “tough questions” weren’t asked, then I guess the issue of “electability” doesn’t apply to McCain. What that means in the minds of ABC, I don’t know. But the corporate media have found their champion….Old John. Keep that in mind.
crazylikeafox @ 25:
You would think but I’m afraid they only care about “their enemies” lying not “their candidates” lies.
And when did Stephanopoulos’ head get so much bigger than his body, I never noticed before today.
BTW I love the ad about McCain and his trillion for polluters. Saw it on tv only once but it made an impact.
Did Georgie ask McCain about the flag pin? It is the issue voters want to know about. (snark)
soullite @ 9:
That’s a good point. I’ve always felt (and I think the “debate” the other night proved this)that the “Obama’s an elitist who isn’t patriotic and hangs out with terrorists” bullshit was being generated by Hillary’s campaign. She and her people have, thus far, run one of the sleaziest, dirtiest campaigns I’ve ever seen. Nixon would be proud.
Stephanopolis has been exposed for the political hack that he is. To take directions from Sean Hannity, to talk to Sean Hannity, is unforgivable.
It is hilarious to me seeing george stephanopoulos try and be a journalist and a serious journalist to boot!
Being a white christian means never having to show your patriotism.
MCcain. “Pin?, Oh I must have left it on my other $10,000 suit.” Fucking Elitist.
Hey McCain! Hey Stephanopoulos! Where the fuck are your flag pins, guys??? Oh, I get it! It’s only important that the black guy proves his “patriotism”
Jeffrey Stewart @ 39:
There’s 1,000 times more Bill Clinton jizz in his belly than Monica’s.
Bob Sheafer had a good closing on his show today with a take on the flag pin. Patriotism is not about a piece of jewlery on your lapel, but what’s behind it, in your heart. As far as boy George goes, he’s proven he’s willing to be play the role of Robin to any Batman that comes along. He exemplifies the meaning of sycophant.
JSM @ 26:
Meds…
steve @ 23:
Bingo. Which means that every time that this issue is brought up, whether it be by a right-wing attacker or by a left-wing hypocrisy-pointer-outer, it ends up hurting Obama among the pinheads who have already bought the core story.
Got that, C&L? Silly little gotchas do not work when the core issue has already been used to tar one side. Anyone with half a brain is ignoring both the original non-issue and any subsequent findings of petty hypocrisy on the same. The only people who give one sh*t about these things are the pinheads and it’s too late to change their minds, and rubbing their noses in it will actually make it worse.
“Stop hurting America.” - J.Stewart
how DARE they….fucking traitors….
No one wore a lapel pin at the Philadelphia debate.
PLEASE make the health care issue about McCain’s lifelong coverage by the American taxpayer and his cancer that would make him insurable through any private policy to any Republican you speak with.
Say it over and over and over.
Remember, that’s how the propaganda sinks in.

Sorry, UNINSURABLE
diamondmc @ 45:
Actually this man is actually an idiot
odanny @ 27:
If Obama said that the sky is blue, they’d say it shows his “elitist insensitivity” - “There were clouds over many parts of America today, including states the Democrats need to win in November. He completely ignored millions of Americans.”
(quoting from In Major Blunder, Obama Says Sky Is Blue )
No flag pin? But 9/11 is only a few months away. Clearly McCain is spitting on the memory of those who died.
No lapel pin ! They hate America ! Just shows you ( if one has a brain ) what a sham this lapel pin ” issue ” is . Karl Rove Republicans and Karl Rove Clintonites , one and the same .#40 Filthy Harry sums it up nicely .
Follow the money…
McCain Bundlers not disclosed by McCain…. and disclosed …full list…
