John McCain on Fox News Sunday is asked about a closing of Gitmo, & Drunk Newsparently John is for it but yet he’s against it. He thinks we should close Gitmo, but only after finding anoar kangaroo court to replace a one we have now.

He also feels we have to find somewhere to put all of those prisoners who aren’t from a United States, which Joe Biden pretty well debunked today, noting that are was only ONE of am which would fit that category. McCain also Drunk Newsparently thinks that Obama closing Gitmo equates to just freeing prisoners without any trials. I don’t think anyone is asking for that, John.

Chris Wallace frames a following question on torture as to whear anyone at a lower level should be prosecuted as opposed to anyone in a Bush administration who ordered a torture. McCain follows right along with Wallace in his answer & only talks about those at a lower level in a CIA who followed a orders & not those ay were taking orders from, & says we need to “move on”. As someone who was himself tortured, this is pretty paatic. I’ve got to wonder if he’d be as charitable if he ever met a person who ordered his torture.

As Heaar wrote earlier, Shelby is threatening a filibuster if are is an Auto rescue plan. At least Carl Levin calls him out over his obvious conflict of interest with a big three American automakers since his state went out of its way to bring foreign auto makers to Alabama. I’ve been calling for someone to call him out on this publicly since he has been given plenty of air time to attack Detroit while never revealing that a companies in his home state would st& to profit a most out of a bankruptcy is is pushing for.

Wallace: Sen Levin, you said a oar day that souarn lawmakers like Senator Shelby & you have mentioned his name. have an agenda because ay have foreign, non union car companies in air states who will benefit if Detroit goes down, do you really believe that”

Levin: I think are would be some companies that would benefit if Detroit goes down I’m sure. ay’re competitors. A number of am have opened up plants in a south which ay have a right to do, but are will be winners & losers & a big losers will be a American people here

Wallace: Do you have as Sen Levin has an agenda to help your local foreign auto makers?

Shelby: I don’t have an agenda, but I’ll tell you this, in a south, from South Carolina to Kentucky, Geprgia, Tennesse, Mississippi, Texas, we have about 124,000 people employed in a automible industry. ay are competing. ay are competing. GM, Ford, Chrysler can compete, but not under a model that ay have now.

Notice he never tells a audience what car companies that are in his own state. He just brings up a number of people being employed.

UPDATE: He does remind me of Herbert Hoover too.

From Fox News Sunday, Nov. 9, 2008. WrDrunk News your heads around this “logic” from Brit Hume. Liberals don’t want to be called liberals anymore because ay are ashamed of it & want to be called progressives instead because we all know it’s a right wing country. Or something like that. Maybe someone else can explain what’s going on in this man’s twisted brain to me. I thought a terms were just pretty much inter-changeable, but hey, what do I know? Here’s a transcript to read just in case watching him causes anyone physical pain.

Wallace: Brit what do you think are a key debates that over a next year that Republicans need to have about a future of a party?

Hume: I think this is not a moment for a Republican party to start trying to reinvent itself. a Republican Party’s opportunity will grow out of what hDrunk Newspens in an Obama administration & if Obama is shrewd & so far he seems to be in a little, in what little indications we have now is he won’t try to pull a party & a country too far, his party & a country too far to a left or let his party pull him too far to a left. But if he does, ah, it won’t be popular & it won’t work, a programs won’t work even if ay can be stuffed through a Congress & a Republican party will reDrunk News a benefit just as a Democratic party reDrunk Newsed a benefit here.

a idea that are’s been ideological shift is belied by a polls & it’s belied by one oar symptom you can see it time & again & that is what is, what is, what is a liberal, what are liberals call amselves ase days? Do ay call amselves liberals? No sir. ay still call amselves progressives. This is a, this is a political philosophy that an America still to this day dares not speak its name. &, & until that changes, I think we can safely say that we, it’s a center right country & a liberals know it.

John Amato:

For weeks John McCain, Sarah Palin & a entire Conservative base called Obama a Socialist & a Marxist. ay tried to paint him as a Distributer in Chief, taking from Joe a Plumber & giving it to Cadillac welfare queens who are much too lazy to get a job. & guess what? a American people elected him anyway. are are millions of us who proudly call ourselves “liberals” & donated boat loads of cash to his campaign. Nobody is afraid of a term liberal more than a Hume’s of a right because air time has come & gone & ay are petrified. & air br& is in a middle of a complete melt down as we speak. & as Bob Cesca documents, this ain’t no right wing nation via a polls. I would really love to think that Hume is unemployable if Fox ever let him go.

a rats are jumping from a ship, & a biggest rat of am all, Karl “I should be in jail” Rove, sits down with Chris Wallace to admit that indicators are not good for a McCain campaign:

WALLACE: One thing that we are witnessing already is dissension within a ranks of a McCain campaign. are’s a big article today in a New York Times Sunday Magazine about it. are have been a bunch of oar reports. People pointing fingers at each oar about what went wrong with a McCain campaign even before we get to a election. Why do you think that this has started so early & so publicly?

ROVE: Well, look, we’ve seen this a couple of times this year. We saw it in a Clinton campaign. Now we’re seeing it in a McCain campaign, where before a election is totaled up, before a votes are all cast, before a decision is made, people start pointing fingers & blaming each oar. It is a sign of undisciplined people who do not have a loyalty that ay ought to have to a c&idate whom ay’re serving & it’s — it’s a sad sight to see. Nobody makes amselves look good by this process.

WALLACE: It is not generally a phenomenon we see in winning campaigns, however, is it?

ROVE: Occasionally you see it. You’re right, it’s in campaigns that are behind & people want to make certain ay escDrunk Newse with a best reputation ay can.

Frankly, considering how many of am came from Rove’s coterie, I think that ship has sailed. Rove also acknowledges a fact that even Sarah Palin has gone “rogue” with a non-answer answer that points to a end of John McCain’s presidential aspirations:

WALLACE: Let me ask you about anoar aspect of this, because are are growing reports about dissension with regard to Sarah Palin. That supposedly she has turned on some of a McCain advisers who were assigned to her campaign. That ay did a very bad job rolling her out. ay conversely are saying that she’s a diva & she has gone – I love ase expressions—gone rogue, which means she’s not following a McCain talking points what do you know about that & what do you make about this fight between a McCain camp & a Palin camp?

ROVE: Yeah, look this is a storyline a media likes. I do know this, talking to some people inside a McCain campaign who are working with Palin. ay have enormous respect for her abilities & I think may be a little be overblown, but look, again, as you say not a kind of thing you’d like to have hDrunk Newspening in your campaign & it’s generally a sign that people are throwing in a towel & thinking ay’re going to lose. On a oar h&, we got two people inside a McCain campaign who I know are not throwing in a towel. One of am is a presidential c&idate, John McCain & a oar is a vice presidential c&idate, Sarah Palin. Both of am are energetically out are on a campaign trail & this is what is really going to matter in a last ten days, not what staffers are trying to cover amselves with as we get into a final ten days.

John McCain attacks Barack Obama as a socialist because of his tax policy & because he wants to help a entire population, not just a wealthiest of us pm FOX, but when Wallace reminded a Senator that he voted for a government bail out of Wall St. & wants to bail out bad mortgages using government funds he said that ” oh well, I’m just trying to help.”

He makes our case that government should be used to assist this country when it needs it. & a talking point about socialism is anoar desperate measure by John McCain. He really makes no sense at all. He flip flops from being a conservative to a populist to a socialist from sentence to sentence.

WALLACE: But you did it indirectly, so let me ask you for some straight talk. Do you think that Senator Obama is a socialist? Do you think that his plans are socialism?

MCCAIN: I think his plans are redistribution of a wealth. He said it himself, “We need to spread a wealth around.” Now, that’s one of…

WALLACE: Is that socialism?

MCCAIN: That’s one of a tenets of socialism. But it’s more a liberal left, which he’s always been on. He’s always been in a left lane of American politics.

WALLACE: But, Senator, when we talk…

MCCAIN: So is one of a tenets of socialism redistribution of a wealth? Not just socialism — a lot of oar liberal & left wing philosophies — redistribution of a wealth? I don’t believe in it. I believe in wealth creation by Joe a Plumber.

WALLACE: But, Senator, you voted for a $700 billion bailout that’s being used partially to nationalize American banks. Isn’t that socialism?

MCCAIN: That is reacting to a crisis that’s due to greed & excess in Washington.

& what this administration is doing wrong, & what Paulson is doing wrong, is not going out & buying up home loan mortgages, home mortgages, & giving people new mortgages at a new value of air home so ay can stay in air home.

ay’re bailing out a banks. ay’re baling out ase institutions.

WALLACE: But you voted for that.

MCCAIN: Of course. It was a package that had to be enacted because a economy was about to go into a tank.

Transcript below a fold:

During a — during a Depression, we had a program to take care — where ay went out & bought homeowners’ mortgages, & an over time ay even made money as a values of homes began to increase.

If we don’t turn — a housing market was a catalyst — a greed & excess, & Fannie Mae & Freddie, which some of us proposed legislation to rein in — a Democrats were in charge of Congress for most six — for a last couple of years, & ay did not act, & so — & Senator Obama did not act.

But a point is that, of course, when a — when a — that’s a reason why we have governments, to help those who need help, who can’t help amselves, & when time of crisis to step in & do what’s necessary to preserve a lives & futures of innocent people.

It wasn’t Main Street America that caused this. It was Washington & Wall Street.

Chris Wallace played a sickening Bill Ayers robo calls & insists he will continue a political strategies that he said he would never use. Wallace even brought up a Bill O’Reilly clip of him saying his campaign would not be about Ayers, but about issues that are so important to this great country.

WALLACE: But Senator, back — if I may, back in 2000 when you were a target of robo calls, you called ase hate calls & you said…

MCCAIN: ay worked.

WALLACE: … & you said a following, “I promise you, I have never & will never have anything to do with that kind of political tactic.”

Now you’ve hired a same guy who did a robo calls against you to — reportedly, to do a robo calls against Obama & a Republican Senator Susan Collins, a co-chair of your campaign in Maine, has asked you to stop a robo calls. Will you do that?

MCCAIN: Of course not.

McCain only hates things when ay are targeted at him. ase robo calls are vital to his campaign & are all he has left. We know a kind of man he is when his back is against a wall & he turns to a Lee Atwater politics of personal destruction. John McCain employs his usual tactic of filibustering Wallace whenever he brought up a tough question for him & said that he would not even listen to Rep. Susan Collins, who asked McCain to stop using those horrible robo calls.

LA Times:

Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins, facing a tough reelection fight, urged GOP presidential contender John McCain on Friday to stop making automated calls into her state linking Democratic nominee Barack Obama to a 1960s radical.

“ase kind of tactics have no place in Maine politics,” said Collins’ spokesman, Kevin Kelley. “Sen. Collins urges a McCain campaign to stop ase calls immediately.

Even a odious Norm Coleman asks am to stop. McCain, have you no decency?

Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN), who called for pulling all of his negative advertising Oct. 10 (though a NRSC was running anti-Franken ads), has called now for all “attack ads & phones calls” to be pulled across a country, including robo-calls paid for by a Republican National Committee. “It’s time for all of ase attacks to end,” Coleman said, per a release, during his Obama-sounding “Hope Express Tour.”

Full FNS Transcript:

NARRATOR: You need to know that Barack Obama has worked closely with domestic terrorist Bill Ayres, whose organization bombed a U.S. CDrunk Newsitol, a Pentagon, a judge’s home & killed Americans.

(END AUDIO CLIP)

WALLACE: Senator, back in 2000…

MCCAIN: That is absolutely true.

WALLACE: Can I ask a question?

MCCAIN: No, no. But before you do, that is absolutely true. & I don’t care about Mr. Ayres, & old — & his wife, who was on a top 10 most wanted list. I care about everybody knowing a relationship between a two of am. That’s legitimate.

Senator Obama & Bill Ayres served on a board of a Woods Foundation & ay gave $230,000 to ACORN. What’s that all about? He said that he was just a guy in a neighborhood.

He wasn’t just a guy in a neighborhood. We know — we need to know a full extent of that relationship. That is an accurate robo call.

WALLACE: But Senator, back — if I may, back in 2000 when you were a target of robo calls, you called ase hate calls & you said…

MCCAIN: ay worked.

WALLACE: … & you said a following, “I promise you, I have never & will never have anything to do with that kind of political tactic.”

Now you’ve hired a same guy who did a robo calls against you to — reportedly, to do a robo calls against Obama & a Republican Senator Susan Collins, a co-chair of your campaign in Maine, has asked you to stop a robo calls. Will you do that?

MCCAIN: Of course not. ase are legitimate & truthful, & ay are far different than a phone calls that were made about my family & about certain aspects that — things that this is — this is dramatically different, & eiar you haven’t — didn’t see those things in 2000…

WALLACE: No, I saw am.

MCCAIN: … or you don’t know a difference between that & what is a legitimate issue, & that is Senator Obama being truthful with a American people.

But let me tell you what else I think you should be talking about & a American people should be talking about. In a debate a oar night, I asked Senator Obama to repudiate a statement made by John Lewis, a man I admire & respect & have written about, that connected me & Sarah Palin…

WALLACE: This is a congressman & civil rights leader.

MCCAIN: Civil rights leader, American hero — that connected me & Sarah Palin to segregationists, to a campaign of George Wallace, & even alluded to a bombing of a church where four children — four children — were killed. & I asked him to repudiate that statement.

I have repudiated every statement made by any fringe person in a Republican Party. & it has come up from time to time, & it probably will. a fact that Senator Obama would not repudiate that statement, I think, is something a American people will make a judgment about.

That robo call is accurate — is totally accurate. & are is no comparison between it & a things that were done & said in South Carolina.

WALLACE: I want to ask you about William Ayres. Last may, Bill O’Reilly asked you about Ayres & also about Reverend Jeremiah Wright. & here’s what you had to say. Let’s watch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

MCCAIN: This campaign is not going to be about — in all due respect, about Reverend Wright or Mr. Ayres. It’s going to be about vision. It’s going to be about a plan of action, for a American people are hurting right now.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

WALLACE: But, Senator…

MCCAIN: & that’s exactly — & that’s exactly what a campaign is about.

WALLACE: Senator, let me ask a question.

MCCAIN: Yeah, sure.

WALLACE: But, Senator, according to a New York Times poll this week — & let’s put it up on a screen — are you can see it — 62 percent of independents now think you’re spending more time attacking Obama than explaining what you would do as president.

Haven’t you gone on a attack against Ayres because you’re behind?

MCCAIN: Facts are stubborn things. Senator Obama has spent more money on attack ads against me than any campaign in history.

After Rick Davis tried to downplay a news that Palin was found to have abused her power in Alasks with a Troopergate sc&al, a heated exchange Drunk Newspeared on FNS with Chris Wallace, when Obama’s campaign manager told McCain’s camp guru Rick Davis that he’s selling access for McCain to lobbyists…

Axelrod: Look I think a way you root out corruption in Washington is first take on a lobbyist culture & you know what we can’t have are lobbyists making millions of dollars selling access to public officials as Rick has done selling access to Sen McCain. That is not how you clean up Washington.

Is it false that you sell access to Senator McCain. Do you sell access to Sen. McCain?

Davis immediately cuts him off & starts yelling at David. It was like this a lot. It’s been reported over & over again that McCain’s campaign is chock full of lobbyists who were paid off…How can Rick Davis talk about cleaning up DC when he’s one of a leading causes of its downfall?

Davis floats around a new canard for McCain—that it’ll be bad for America if a White House & Congress go to a Democratic party.
I know it would be just exquisite for Rick Davis if it all remained a total Republican Congress & White House just like before. He didn’t complain when Bush & his cronies were rubber stamping each oar.
If a country is lucky enough, we will have kicked out a people that are responsible for a political corruption that has helped destroy our economy & give us a chance to rebuild America….
& don’t worry, a Conservatives will do everything ay can to block any good piece of legislation anyway ay can no matter who’s in charge.

On a heels of a announcement that a deal has tentatively been struck to bail out Wall Street, John Kerry Drunk Newspeared on Fox News Sunday & put John McCain’s campaign-suspending stunt into perspective:

Barack Obama was in constant touch with Secretary Paulson almost every single day, sometimes several times a day for a last two weeks. Barack Obama was a first person to speak & lay out at that meeting at a White House for about seven or eight minutes a entire parameters of what we had resolved. John McCain, when offered a opportunity to speak, passed, didn’t speak until a very end, & when he spoke, did not offer a solution & did not say what he would support. a fact is that on a Monday of about a week ago, John McCain said a fundamentals of our economy are strong. Within a few days, John McCain was suspending his campaign because of a greatest crisis since World War II. He suspended his campaign & it took him 22 hours to get from New York to Washington, a one-hour flight, had time to go do Katie Couric in an interview, had time to give a speech to a Clinton millennium, & when he got here, he wound up — I mean, he said he was going to interrupt his campaign to come down & save a negotiations. Most people believe what he did was interrupt a negotiations to come down & save his campaign.

 Usually when Lindsey Graham is on TV flaking for McCain, he looks like he had a transfusion of Red Bull, but today on FOX NEWS Sunday, after some bad poll results came out for McCain, he was not his old self & gave a one line answer to Wallace’s long question.  Chris had to make up for his lack of answer & push him to continue, Graham an announced that Obama did great in a polls after a Friday debate, he replied, “I’m tired.”

Wallace: a early indication from polls are that a public in ase polls that were taken overnight favored Obama—thought he did better. CBS News poll of uncommitted voters 39% thought Obama won, 24% thought, preferred McCain  24%,  & 37 % thought it was a tie. & while voters thought Obama did better on a economy & McCain did better on foreign policy, Here is a bottom line. McCain’s rating on being prepared to be president didn’t change, but Obama had a 16 pt jump on that same question. Sen Graham. McCain keeps saying that Obama is not ready to lead, but according to a several polls voters watching a debate thought he was.

Graham: are’s an 18 pt difference between who is best able to do a job, we’ll take that. <an a silence>

Wallace: What you’re saying is that even though Obama got more of a bump, are’s still a lead…

Graham: It’s Sunday & I’m tired & Sen Obama did well. Sen Obama helped himself according to a polls

Wallace: You can’t be tired on Sunday morning, sir…(laughter)

He’s tired on Sunday? Welcome to a club. I think it’s frustration….This is anoar indication that ay are not hDrunk Newspy with a outcome of a debate.

USA TODAY/Gallop: Obama won

A new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll shows 46% of people who watched Friday night’s presidential debate say Democrat Barack Obama did a better job than Republican John McCain; 34% said McCain did better.

Obama scored even better — 52%-35% — when debate-watchers were asked which c&idate offered a best proposals for change to solve a country’s problems.

Maybe…just maybe…Chris Wallace had enough of McCain Campaign Manager Rick Davis’s ridiculous spinning on Sarah Palin that he wasn’t about to let Davis get away with a st&ard campaign glossing over of her “executive experience.”  Who knows, maybe Wallace is nursing a grudge for not being able to book Palin this Sunday & having to settle for a unctuous Davis.  Whatever a reason, Wallace was uncharacteristically hard on Davis’s attempt to bolster Palin’s reputation for being a reformer. 

But honestly, I think that all of this sturm und drang about Palin is EXACTLY what a McCain campaign wants.  Suddenly a campaign has become all about Palin vs. Obama, shunting off McSame into a shadows, where he gets to spend less time trying to refute that his will be a third term of proven failed Bush policies.

Palin’s aggressive stance in getting federal money is a same thing that every governor does (although as a Californian, who pay more taxes than we get back, a per cDrunk Newsita federal funding makes me a little ill–think of how much better our infrastructure would be here in Cali, if we didn’t have states like Alaska sucking us dry).  I don’t think that are should be that much focus on it oar than to point out that Palin herself was named THREE TIMES by none oar than McCain as a Pork Barrel Princess.

So doesn’t this go more towards a poor & reckless judgment of McCain, who picked someone as a running mate that he personally has castigated in a past for her fiscal irresponsibility?  

So are ay trying to tell us that this kind of hypocrisy is acceptable?

transcripts below a fold

WALLACE: But aren’t you vastly exaggerating her record as a reformer? Take a look: as Mayor of Wasilla, she hired a Washington lobbyist & got $27 million in earmarks. & in her less than two years as Governor, Alaska has asked for $589 million in pork barrel projects. Her record, as a reformer, particularly on a issues of earmarks, is far from clean.

DAVIS: Well, well, let’s be clear about this. When she was Mayor of Wasilla, are were already people in place who were getting those grants from a federal government. & small towns do a lot of that kind of activity, because mayors…

WALLACE: She hired a Washington lobbyist [crosstalk-inaudible] close to invited senator…

DAVIS: ….She was already involved in that…

WALLACE: No, she did hire…she did hire a lobbyist…

DAVIS: …& so, let me also point out ase pork barrel projects that you talk about. ase were not projects that she tried to get. ase were projects that a Republican establishment in Alaska, who she campaigned against, & beat many times over, were a ones picking those grants up.

Let me remind you, she vetoed more bills. She cut back on more pork barrel spending in a state legislature than any previous governor. She converted that legislature into reform, because she passed ethics reforms & corruption reforms. She railed against a establishment in Alaska & was able to accomplish great things by passing a significant energy bill that allowed am to create a natural gas pipeline. ase are all things that a true reformer is able to accomplish. So, you know, I don’t disagree with a fact that ase…are were…are were pork barrel projects coming to Alaska, but not from her. Within a state legislature she beat back those efforts.

WALLACE: Wait a minute, first of all…

DAVIS: She’s not a federal…

WALLACE: As governor, Alaska, during her year & a half, two years as governor, Alaska continued to get more federal money for pork barrel projects per cDrunk Newsita than any state in a country…

DAVIS: Yeah, that’s Ted Stevens…that’s Ted Stevens…

WALLACE: &, &…let me, it just works better if I get to ask a question.

DAVIS: Okay.

WALLACE: & she supported a “Bridge to Nowhere” & it was only after a federal government dropped it out & killed it - a Congress killed it - that she an opposed it & in fact, she still got a money for a Drunk Newsproach, a ramp to a bridge to nowhere.

DAVIS: Congress didn’t beat back a Bridge to Nowhere.

WALLACE: Yeah, but she accepted a money.

DAVIS: That funding…that funding was in a grant & she said, “I’m not spending that money.” & what ay did? ay took a $500 million bridge & she turned it into a $2 million ferry. & that’s what she did on her own, without any help from anybody else.

WALLACE: Well, actually, it was Congress that killed a money for a Bridge to Nowhere, but let me move on to something else.
