This is an open invitation to discuss John McCain's policies. I think his are often ignored and subsumed into a discussion of Obama's "lack of policies" (which is essentially people expecting to have a bill already drafted for everything he wants to do).
I know McCain has some good ones, and Obama has some good ones, but I have seen little information that they are significantly more thorough than Obama's.
So this is your chance to show me. I am asking you to so since they are apparently so clear cut.
Policies I already know McCain stands by:
Cutting pork-barrel spending and corruption.
Not setting a strict timetable for an Iraq withdrawal
Increased nuclear energy usage and more offshore drilling (Obama has recently budged on both these issues, FYI)
Maintaining Bush's tax cuts
So please tell me what more of his policies are and why they are so much more clear than Obama's policies.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
