"Man In The Arena"

Two-minute John McCain Web ad seeks to link him to two historical greats: Winston Churchill and Teddy Roosevelt. Modesty, be gone.

Churchill and Teddy never spoke at Liberty University.

Churchill was all for using poison gas against Arabs and other "recalcitrant tribes." Where does McBush stand on that?

Gosh, ol' John McSame is pro-torture. I guess since he got tortured, he wants everyone to get the same.

Was Teddy pro-torture?

He's old enough to have met both of those guys in person.

Strategically, McCain is trying to show that he has more gravitas than either Clinton or Obama.

This is a very smart move -- it echoes his talking points about experience and his foreign policy skills. I wish the Democrats would stop wasting their resources fighting each other and start sharpening their knives for McCain.

LOL , gasp, oh please stop, you're killing me.

This toady, this ancient little turd, this radical rightwing sockpuppet? Delusions of grandeur. Maybe he's taking his wife's drugs or something.

King Ludwig the Insane maybe. This backwater psychotic isn't fit for the office he holds much less president. A below average intellect with a penchant of being manipulated by the horde of lobbyists surrounding him.

Teddy Roosevelt??? How does McCain compare to Teddy? Roosevelt was one of the strongest environmentalist of all time?. McCain did NOT voting on the 15 most importatnt environmental bills of 2007. Not a peep on these from McBush..

Yes, we, Americans, fought the British--not just once, but--twice. We fought them on the beaches, and the landing zones, we fought them in the fields and in the streets, we fought them in the hills. And they surrendered--the first time.

Totalizer - you're just a girlee man. McCain rocks,
and his video is true....while obama and clinton whine about discrimination! McCain has an IQ of 133, and he's gonna win america while these two liberal politically correct whiners cry again. Great video. McCain has every right to make those comparisons - Silver Star, Purple Heart, tortured, refused release, - DFC (Distinguished Flying Cross). A true American hero - and you are idiots to call him "McBush" because he has been hated and suffered greatly from the crap that lil dubya and cheney, and all you chickenhawks sent his way. Go McCain go!
