For all those OBAMA bashers who are complaining liberals are ruining America, I would like to remind you of the current state of our country and perhaps you need to put up mirror and look at yourselves!! what this administration it has done to this great country!!!

For reals, if you want more of Bush policy then vote for McCain.

AND if its going to be another Bush regime then I am packing my bags and moving to CANADA!!!!

Enough is ENOUGH!!!

Good for Harry.

American politics is SOOOO different from Canadian.
If a Canadian leader had wanted to throw his wife into a topless, banana eating, pickle sucking contest with fat old men in stinky clothes, his party WOULD have been scrambling to find a replacement, and his career would be over. Add to the that, 'I don't know how many houses I own.'
SOMEBODY should get McCain bragging about crossing party lines and being the bipartisan hero with the Committee they ran to hide all the POW files. WHY doesn't he want to bring this marvelous part of his resume forward. (Maybe it is the October Surprise?)
Can SOMEBODY explain what it took to be offered early release from the Cong, which his daddy turned down, not him!
He tries to committ suicide and he is hero!!!
Speaking for the real heros who were POWS of the Cong, they did not talk, so they are dead.
I AGREE 100% with Ross Perot's opinion of McCain, and he knew him better than most.

Harry Reid can't stand McCain.

Even if that was all I knew about McCain, it would be enough to get me to vote for McCain.

Vote McCain, a vote for Obama is insain!

I am sure Sen. Reid would work well with a president McCain. When both congress and the presidency is in the hands of the same party, bad legislation happens because there were no reason to compromise and the law were either far left or far right.

Well – Reid, Pelosi, Dean – and OBAMA – I can't stand you!

The Dems will lose – again!

I can't stand McCain, but Reid and Pelosi have got to go too.

600 other men were pows in the 'hilton' of vietnam.mccain was offered early release as a gesture to his father Admiril Mccain. lt. cmdr. mccain,refused and was an instant hero to america.however,he forgets to mention,that any one of the other 599 pows, would have without question,done the exact same thing.
mccain's 'cross' story was never mentioned in any articles books reports quotes etc.,until he began his first presidential race in 1999,his "favorite author,solhenetzin,was a political prisoner in russia ,and related a very similar story in a book."i'm not calling anyone a liar,but, i think he has 'embellished his story to fit with his fav authors story",for the extra votes he may get from religious folks.is this another 'bosnia sniper- gate' issue?

I bet you that there are many that do not like Reid either. How can anyone have such an opinion, or talk about others as Reid has done, when in fact he is in no position to criticize others. What has Reid done?

That's a really mature comment from the Senate Majority Leader… "I can't stand McCain." Reminds me of the dumb blonds in high school.

I understand Mr. Reid because I can't stand that two-faced, lying, elitist, warmongering, prejudice, pandering, ancient neanderthal either!

I can't stand the Republican party and John McCain's criticisms of Democrats that are more true of themselves. Elitism, celebrity, responsibility for our current energy problems, irresponsible tax policy, obstructionism toward energy indepedence, effective allocation of our military resources, unamerican, unpatriotic and racist are all accusations at least alluded to by McCain and his campaign that are more true of McCain and the leaders of his political party.

Why isn't the story about McCain once again not knowing anything. HE doesn't know how many houses he owns. COME ON CNN.. this man is clearly UNFIT to be the President. He is suffering some sort of mental illness. He has to be steadied by Nurse Cindy everytime he walks up and down steps or stairs.. McCain remember Czechoslovakia, now the Czech Republic.. McCain also believes Iraq and Pakistan share a border.

I hate Reid and Pelosi and others who do nothing. But McCain needs to be called out. And CNN its your job to call him out. I bet you will censor this post like you do a lot of post, not just from me, but a lot of people. SHAME on CNN.. BOO HISS HISS

McCain = World War 3. Wake Up America and sense that reality!!

Anti-McCain, Anti-Puma, Anti-Clinton,

Wow. Reid and Pelosi are on a roll. I'm sure their approal ratings are just going to soar even higher (if thats possible) now that they have pissed off Clinton and McCain supporters.

McCain is right. We do need the draft. We can't invade Iran without more bodies. Every boy must be trained to fight and defend this country.

I can't stand John McCain, neither…

Biff said:
Please DON'T forget to mention the RECORD number of filibusters by Republicans to MAKE SURE nothing of substance got done.

Nice… one party holds the whole country's agenda hostage, then blames the other party.

Biff, thank you! Finally, someone out there gets it!

Obama, Reid, and Pelosi are all losers and DNC is a joke. I can't believe I was a democrat all my life until this year. A do nothing congress and an inexperienced installed candidate. What a sham!

With regard to "people make no sense"..what a childish, uneducated, and erstwhile disgusting piece of tiatribe. How do you cope with the pressure of being so wise and perfect???????? If you put that much energy into something constructive maybe the people in your inner circle might discover a better world!!!!

I can't stand John McCain either, but I do not think that this was an appropriate comment for Reid to make. It's no wonder why this Congress can't accomplish anything. They are too busy bickering like high school students.

"I DON'T LIKE ______" IS NOW TOUTED AS NEWS??!!! What has this country come to???!!! As a life-long democrat, I am among the millions who have been disenfranchised and ashamed of my party's conduct in this election year. Reid is just another example of the sell-outs to the young-n-hip, text-you-votes-in-today-kids, 20″ sound-bite culture. Barry "Manchurian Candidate" Obama will not be getting my vote, but then, he and his Obamabots could care less, right?

Sen. McCain recently agreed with a woman at a campaign event that the military draft needs to be reinstated. MCCAIN WANTS TO REINSTATE THE DRAFT!!!!

This is a dangerous position. What wars is HE planning now? Iran? Russia?

Reid is right, who can like a Fascist? The republicans are trying to do to America what Hitler did to Germany!

all of you, republicans, do not be ignorant, ok, let's do what McCain said "Country First", right, so Reid does not like McCain, now, has McCain put his country first all his 26 years in congress? of couse not who has done that? show me a perfect record… now what will Obama and McCain say that they will do to change that, that's a different story. For us republicans is dificult to convince the population that the Bush's administration has been wrong and bad all along, because actually we republicans had been in control of congress for 7 out of the 8 years of this admonistration. We have not benn conserative (money wise) at all!, from torture to wire tapping to have Chenney erased 10 pages of the EPA report about global warming, to the communist China free trade, big tax cuts for corporations… you name it, I mean, companies are not leaving because we do not have skill workers, they are leaving because 1- huge tax breaks from this administration, 2-cheap labor. 3- infrastructure.

Wake up America,

Vote for the candidate that offers you the opposite of what we have today!

Well – I can't stand obama! BUT – I think I can put it better than this jerk. Obama is an Arrogant, Radical FRAUD – he will never be elected – he is NOT qualified.

I can't stand George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, or Joe Lieberman.

HONESTY. . . That's what I'm talking about! ! !

"Thumbs Up For Reid"

***By the way, Eugene Caudill (MCCAIN'S CHARACTER ELIMINATES HIM FROM BECOMING PRESIDENT, JUST ASK HIS FIRST WIFE-CAROL). AND DON'T LEAVE OUT THE THOUSANDS OF ELDERLY AMERICAN'S, THAT LOST THEIR LIFE SAVINGS, "KEATING 5 SAVINGS AND LOAN"

I cant stand that dirty old man either.
John Mcain's experience did him no good he is still to dumb to be president of the united states. Say yes to a new kind of change and a new kind of politics. Change the american people can believe in.
obama 08,12

Just wondering if Laura from Boston took issue when VP Cheney used the "F" word in his reference to a senator a little while back?

Harry…
How does it feel to be a symbolic leader in the most ineffective and unpopular congress since polling began?

Erhh…Mr. Reid…since Lieberman is your best buddy on everything except the war on terror–then you must also support his views on the annual multi-billion foreign aid/defense package the U.S. citizens are forced to send to Isael.

It's sad we you want to raise taxes of Americans to enable your own special interest ties.

The U.S. taxpayer pays more for the defense of Israel than Israeli citizens do.

Harry,
you are not the only one.
I can't either!!!

MCCAIN THE REAL WAR HERO. ALL HE GOT IS CAUGHT. SOME HERO LIKE NO ONE ELSE SERVED. PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY ARE STUPID. SONGBIRD.

OBAMA……08

An Reid is not alone…….

People can't stand McCain… but they're not willing to "meet" Obama because they're listening to McCain's ads.

People would rather have someone they don't like lead them than a guy they don't know on their side. Sad…

bobie August 21st, 2008 1:54 pm ET

typical liberal hatred for good honest americans

why do liberals want to destroy america

why is the credentials for NObama's convention in Denver a picture of an upside down flag

NObama is just wrong for america.

hey Bobie or is it Bubba, are you suggesting Republicans are honest. Is Bush and Cheney honest!!!!! Just make sure you dont have your confederate flag upside down.

Reid was nicer and more politically correct than I am…McCain is an idiot and inept and the LAST THING this country needs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And to the Hilary supporters (of which I used to be one)…stop emphasizing Obama'slast name like it should make a difference. If Hilary's middle name was Muhammad, would you be saying the same thing?? GROW UP and do what is truly best for this country (in my opinion)—support the Democratic Party to try to get us out of the deplorable situation we are in. Being spiteful and sounding racist gets you nowhere!

Reid is a coaster. He's only upset because McCain will force him to take action instead of naps.

I can't stand either of them really – or Nancy Peloser

I see you've gotten the republican talking-points, Mike from Texas. You might not like Reid, Murtha, Biden, and Pelosi, but they have never "bashed our troops." If you're referring, in some misguided way, to the surge, consider this.

The surge has helped with the violence, but it would not have worked without our government paying the Sunni militiamen $300/month each not to shoot at our troops. That's right. Your tax dollars are going to pay terrorists not to kill our troops. The military has acknowleged this as FACT. As soon as we stop paying them, what do you think is going to happen? Our troops have done everything they can and they've done it well. Now it's time to bring them home.

How can we complain when we choose to elect these morons to office. If your Senator is not doing a great job, "DON'T VOTE FOR HIM OR HER"

It makes me sick that this guy is representing my state. Look at your face on mirror before criticizing others. Look at the recent polls senator Reid; it looks like America can’t stand you or Pelosi more than McCain or Bush. You and Pelosi should just find a big hole and hide until Obama is elected; you guys are not helping him.

eugene you and the rest of obama haters deserve what you get. it's people like you who voted for stuart little bush, that has the whole economy crashing. he is the worst president in history and mcsame will be no different. i hope you are old enough to go to war, because thats' where you and the rest of idiots will go. to war.

From a Previous Thread:

OBSERVERING August 21st, 2008 1:06 pm ET – A—-D E F I N I N G—-M O M E N T—-W H E N—-D O—–H U M A N—– R I G H T S—-B E G I N ? ? ? O B A M A: ::::::::::::::T H A T 'S—-A B O V E——M Y—–P A Y—–G R A D E

OBSERVING:

You are right. That was a defining moment. A moment where Obama answered the question honestly without presuming to be God like McCain who presumes he can define (as God) when life begins.

It is interesting how some on the right accuse Obama supporters for blindly following Obama as if he were a God when it is Obama who admits he is not God and McCain who presumes he is God. In his statement "at the point of conception" McCain was pandering to the evangelical audience and you know it. Now he is teasing the Republicans with a potential VP pick who is pro-choice. He'll tell the evangelicals life begins at conception to get their vote and then to get the vote of moderates and independents he just might pick a pro-choice candidate for VP. Sounds to me that while McCain presumes he is God he is in actuality acting the part of a little devil.

Reid, you sold the democratic party when you and your cohorts selected such a candidate such as Obama.

Everyone sees how corrupt the democratic party is with it"s selecting of a candiate instead of electing that person, how totally corrupt the primary caucuses are, how the super delegates such as yourself, Pelosi, Dean, Brazile et als, and the DNC's non-partiality during the primaries.

All of you meat heads will be voted out of office as soon as your district comes up for re-election.

And last but not least, no one cares whether or not you can't stand Senator John McCain but because of you and your parties corruption he will probably end of being the POTUS.

Unless of course, Hillary R. Clinton wins the nomination at the Denver Convention when her name is placed in Nomination in the First Roll Call and she win by a huge margin….

Is McCain talking about who he would have in his cabinet? Maybe he will reuse Bush's who reused Bush's. This 'furniture' is old and out of touch…time for a New "Cabinet".

Harry Reid is right no matter what your opinion him is
I think Obama should consider picking Hillary for VP
After all she did get 18 million voters in the primaries
It would be a shoo in ..in november ,after all, times were good in America in the nineties bc of his administration
ppl should over look her negatives so Barack can be sure of the white house
you sure dont want war monger mcWar in there
he will bring back the draft and your kids will be going to War instead of college
I actually think he is scarry with his off the cuff actions and opinions towards foreign issues
he would *bomb first *and ask questions later

Although Reid has been too timid in my view, he is right on the mark with this comment.

you i hate is guts and his botox fake barbie wife

That is no way to talk about an war hero. If you dont like his policies call him out on them.

I can't either. I knew we had more in common than just being liberal lol

Smart stance on Joe Lieberman by Reid. I don't like the guy that much, but, hey, a Senate seat is a Senate seat. We can kick him out in four years, but until then let's make sure he doesn't have any reason to endorse more Republicans.

What is this, a politician speaking honestly? I don't know that I have ever heard of such a thing….

harry is a well known creep and a draft dodger.
he ditched the military.
harry is a MORMON.

All of these "McWar" and other name reference by you and others proves a point.

Is that all you can say?

I'm voting for neither because they don't deserve the honor. Yet, all I have seen from your pathetic posts is that you see things as 2 issues, like the side of the coin.

US AND IRAQ CLOSE ON DEAL FOR TROOPS TO LEAVE IRAQ—-GOAL JUNE 30, 2009. YEAH, YOU KNOW THAT TIME- TABLE OBAMA WANTED. LET'S SEE HOW MCCAIN WILL SPIN THIS. OH I KNOW. BACK TO "THE SURGE WORKED' THAT'S WHY WE ARE ABLE TO LEAVE " THE SURGE WORKED". BUT YOU SAID "OBAMA WOULD RATHER LOSE A WAR TO WIN AN ELECTION". JUDGEMENT MATTERS————————–OBAMA 08!!!

It appears that cheaters, liars,oppotunitst and dummies are the most admired. Maybe because they have the same IQ. This is a man who cheated on his sick wife and he has the judgement, character, morals to be a leader. That's not how smart Americans get down.

South Orange

I can't stand McCain either.

It doesn't help when the man can't recall how many homes he owns and doesn't know the difference between Sunni and Shi'a Islam.

Yeah, he's ready to be commander in chief. It's just laughable and too many gullible Americans are buying into his crap.

I can't stand McCain either, but I'm not the one who has to work with him. Reid was a little harsh and should realize that congress has to work together to get things done. I think Hillary would be great for the Majority Leader position. Hopefully congress will get it together.

Obama '08

Tell it Reid………No McWar.

To CNN:

Lets have a discussion on real news –where is your headline on John McCain being in favor or reinstituting the draft for our kids to fight his wars–CNN this is news. Our children needs to know what they are voting for not how many times Obama sneezes. Disgraceful.

It really doesn't matter what McCain does or how anyone feels about him because depending on who Obama picks for a VP he lose half of his potential voters. Sounds like a destined loser.

I can't stand McCain…. definately can't stand him as our President … look one would have thought that with all the checks and balances (one thought) in America that a President could not screw up the country as the Judicial and legistrator offices would not have that …. Well that is not the case at all… one must state as Bush threw that theory out the door… folks wake up…. American can not sustain another repug in the office….

Obama & his choice of VP 08

Partisan politics, at its worse. I sure hope Harry and Nancy enjoyed their vacations..

McCain's temperament IS an issue. If he can't get along with HIS OWN party, can't work well with Democrats to achieve mutual goals, can't work well diplomatically with international interests, can't negotiate well with trade issues, can't understand how most of America is hurting from this severe economic downturn, and can't work towards a peaceful, growing America, –

THEN WHAT GOOD IS HE?

Well I don't know who can stand Harry Reid. His name can never be linked with the word "ethics".

I know Harry Reid and doubt very much he was doing anything other than speaking candidly to his hometown newspaper…..McCain does indeed have bigger problems than Reid not liking him…..believe this, there are many in the Senate that feel the same way about McCain…

I always have to laugh at those who comment that Obama would be bad for America, or that liberals want to destroy this country…..maybe they have been asleep for the last 7+ years, but take a look around now that you're awake enough to type…..the country that Bill Clinton (Democrat) left in good shape has been decimated by GW (Republican)…..case closed

Obama '08

Demo.in Florida. What do you base "bad" on? I think 'Bad' is 4 more years of what we have had 8 of. Look at the economy, look at housing, education, energy. Look at the lies and manipulation of our Department of Justice. Look at what Could happen to the Supreme Court and you think that McCain would be 'good' for our country?

So Mr. Reid I suppose that this means you are all for the Diamond Sumggling durring the Democratic National Convention. Were you sitting right beside Hillary Rodham Clinton or Al Gore on the Del Rio, Texas USA side of the fence as the Diamonds went accross the border in to Mexico on October 15, 1994? I belive the Raddison Hotel held the Democratic Convention that year……Or did you choose to drive one of the General Electric BIG RIGS to see the Diamonds were dropped off personally for Al, Hillary and Bill…….Don't worry Hillary works both sides you can see this in the way she fights for Bill and Al….Al well, she just chooses to remain more silent theres a lot of baggage there…….

Tacky and very unprofessional. This is an elected official speaking, not a member of the popularity committe at the High School dance.

TO Mike, Syracuse, NY,

You say the same thing on every post whenever someone speaks the truth about John McCain. Your first response is generally "why would anyone's (fill in name) opinion matter?" Everyone can't be lying about McCain's temperment and his inability to be an effective commander-in-chief, not to mention that he hardly has a "record" of bipartisanship, as you so incorrectly claim. He's voted with Dubya 95% of the time!! Nothing bipartisanship there! And, we won't even get started on John McCain's dentures, the lifts in his shoes to make him appear taller, the worst comb-over of anyone walking the earth (with the exception of the "Donald", in which case it's a tie), and the fact that he calls his wife Cindy disgusting names. I think he probably fractured her wrist in his anger last week and not some supporter shaking her hand, and it was probably over some negative news article about him, stating the truth that he's just a mean and deceitful clone of George Bush!!!

good call Eugene

and senator reid that's quite alright. America can't stand you and and Palosi either.

On another note, Joe Lieberman deserves credit for the ballsy answer of, "I know you feel that way"
That probably shut Reid up lol

"As a dem in fl.obama is bad for this country.So McCain gets my Vote"
—————————————————————————–

Well, thank you for sharing. That's one for McCain (I'm in charge of counting).

That vote counts; there is no need for you to show up at your polling place on Election Day, November 10.

Thank you.

Doesn't Reid speak for most liberal democrats. They don't have the intestinal fortitude to create a team atmosphere and do what is right for the country as a whole. They'd rather bicker and fight amongst themselves, as our Democrat controlled Congress has done the past
two years. More concerned about diluting our tax base with give away programs to second and third generation welfare receipients.

reid pelosi their IQ just like size their shoes extreem liberal jerk love pedophile care about criminal illegal alien to make big bucks

Mr. Reid is the answer to Republican prayers. If democrats desire victory they should put a muzzle on this chihuahua.

By temperment, Sen Reid means that Sen McCain explodes – as old people with mild problems frequently do, at the littlest things in a fit of red-faced rage.

Just in case nobody knew what CNN was saying …

How funny. This from a man who said we had lost the war in Iraq. Typical liberal slim.

Whewww…. I'm thinking they're not on each others Christmas card list.

Who cares! I doubt McCain likes Reid.

If Reid hates you, that would be a compliment to me!

"I can't stand John McCain," Reid flatly told his hometown paper, for once a honesty person that should know McCain by his 26 years of experience in the Senate. Reid, we understand. I would love to read your book one day.

CNN you closed to soon again………………Obama-takes-swipe-at-McCain-over-houses. “Somebody asked John McCain, 'how many houses do you have?' and he said, 'I'm not sure, I’ll have to check with my staff,'” said Obama at a Thursday morning campaign stop. “True quote! 'I'm not sure, I'll have to check with my staff.' So they asked his staff and he said, 'at least four.' 'At least four.'…………..Ask anyone that lives beneath his “rich” 3 million a year voter, not voters because 98% of us has and will never make that kind of yearly salary. When it comes to knowing how many homes we own….no thinking to do…it would be 1 house or was 1 house until foreclosure reprocessed it because of senators like McCain that voted 95% of the time with Bush policies and agenda’s. They still have many homes, millions, health care, jobs and vehicles to switch everyday with a chauffeur to drive.

NOMcBush is just wrong for America, We are no longer fools by his memory loss. How many of us can't remember how many homes, cars, land and VOTES with Bush we can't remember?

Obama 08

Joe Lieberman's vote IS NOT a good vote. On anything. Anytime.

That is the problem with Reid and may other old line democrats. They need to get some you know whats from somewhere. Joe Lieberman should be ignored by every democrat in the country, including those in congress. If he votes "our way" then fine. If he does not, then to hades with him.

Come on guys…

I DARE any one of you republicans to talk about the documented STRATEGY of filibustering EVERYTHING…

let's hear the spin on the record number of filibusters!

Why do you give a real reason other than some baseless right win smear??

Isn't FL the state that can't ever get voting right? Didn't you guys vote Bush twice?

FL is bad for this country and so are people like you!!!

Confirmed, I can't stand McCain either because he is a liar and I hate a liar. McCain was asked about why he cheated on Carol he replied he doesn't know why he cheated or doesn't know how many homes he owns, but will check with his staff. McCain hasn't been held responsible for any of his actions and lies his whole life.

I can't stand Reid AND Pelosi! Spineless, the both of them!

Name me anyone who can stand Reid, as well as that other barrel of laughs, Pelosi.

Get used to it, Senator, you'll be needing knee-pads after November.

PUMA………………..

OBAMA IS GOING DOWN..DOWN….DOWN……….McCAIN WILL WIN…WE NEED CLINTON AND OBAMA AS VP……………………

McCain has a history of working across the aisle. Reid, does not. Reid is also responsible for a congress with the lowest approval ratings ever (lower than GWB), and truthfully they have done nothing while in control.

Nothing. . . . no arguments. I hope his home state remembers this when his term is up. Same w/ Pelosi.

I would be happy w/ insults from this yahoo!

"Jeff said:

Harry Reid and Pelosi have presided over the most do-nothing congress in modern history"

————————-

Pelosi has done plenty. She told the Super Delegates how to vote and she threatened to 'step in' (whatever that means) to end the contests before all of the states had a chance to vote. She has an agenda – unfortunately it's not ours.

you folks better stop worrying about reid, and start thinking about your son's and daughters, did you noy hear sen mc cain say that he is for the draft?

Leave Your Comment

Many have complained about McCain having terrible temper tantrums, I agree, "does not have the right temperament" is a sign of personal immaturity and such a person should not be Commander-in Chief.

Bush bashing will not help the Democrats or anyone else.
McCain bashing by a leading senator only helps McCain.

Reid is a mature adult, why would he choose these words?
Democrats are quite pathetic.

Mr. Reid's opinion on Sen. McCain just may be based on Sen. McCains negative campaigning and the lies that Sen. McCain seems to be professing when he know that they are lies.

One of the latest examples is when Pastor Rick Warren (at the beginning of their 'interview') asked Sen. McCain how the 'cone of silence' was. Sen. McCain COULD have been honest at that moment and spoke the truth. Seems small? Well these really are questions of Character.
I am more interested in hearing what Sen. McCain's solutions are for the Economy, real solutions for gas prices (it is now known that 'drill here, drill now' will NOT impact current gas prices. So Sen. McCain give us some real information not all this negative stuff.

I can't stand you Reid and your friend Pelosi. I can't wait until both of you are kicked out of your posts by the American people. Both of you have been a disaster to our great country.

Why is CNN jumping on McCain when he said he didnt realize how much he didnt like American until got hostage….This should be on every network McCain is not good for American

Mike in Syracuse…

Please DON'T forget to mention the RECORD number of filibusters by Republicans to MAKE SURE nothing of substance got done.

(so they could then use it as a campaign ploy)..

Nice… one party holds the whole country's agenda hostage, then blames the other party.

Reid and Pelosi need to go… period.

Reid, I share your sentiments. You are a brilliant man. You know emptiness when you hear it. Who knows McSane better than you. You've had to stomach him for far too many years.

I just watched a movie last night called "STOP LOSS". I am not sure if this movie portrayed any truth or was just a totally fictional account of how the U.S. treats it's military.

If by chance the theme of this film is factual and your government actually forces men and women back into fighting a war after they have served their agreed upon military service then all of America should be totally ashamed of their country and their Politicians.

If this how McCain managed to create his so-called surge and he was behind it then anyone who would support this type of maggot would have to be a thoughtless moron.

Keep opening your mouth Reid. People are starting to see the real caring dems you and the Messiah claim to be. You hate America and all those who don't agree with you

Ask us if we care what Reid dislikes the man from the do-nothing

Democrats…acting desperate because they know that McCain is

the man America will choose as their next Prez..No..44

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::INDEPENDENT VOTING MCCAIN;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Saying what the troops should not be doing is not bashing the troops, no matter how much whining and crying the Bush Administration and the Republican Party do.

Agree with you, Mike of Syracuse. People talk about Bush's low rating and don't seem to ever mention that this wonderful (not really) Democratic Congress has a rating that is record setting for the LOWEST of any Congress!! If Pelosi and Reid would get voted out of office, Congress would be able to do more for America. Out with the Democrats, NO OBreak either. Youth for McCain!

bobie, if you think McCain is a "good honest american", you haven't been paying attention, now have you?

By the way, liberals do not want to destroy America. The "conservatives" have already accomplished that task. It's up to the Democrats to rebuild it, now.

Hey Harry….Me Either!

I'm sick of the LIBERAL bashing. I'm proud to be a liberal and I'm proud to care about the rest of my country. Don't mess with this Liberal.

Remember people what the Bush/Cheney team did to oil prices. Imagine what the McLame/? team will do to your beer prices?

I cannot imagine that Cindy McCains stake in a beer empire will have any impact on your beer prices. Save Beer-Save America-Vote Obama!

I AM ALWAYS IMPRESSED WITH HOW STUPID THE AMERICAN PUBLIC IS. THE REPUBLICANS AND JOHN MCCAIN PUBLISH LIES AND HIS RATINGS GO AFTER A DISASTEROUS EIGHT YEARS OF BUSH AND REPUBLICAN DOMINANCE. THEY ALSO OWN OUR COURT SYSTEM SUPRESSING WOMAN AND MINORITIES!

CNN please post this.

You really need to have some candy and relax before you have an anurism. My problem isn't with Obama; my problem is with nasty people like you and the corruption of the DNC. Just yesterday, Obama was looking for suggestions to make the primaries more fair. I agree with him.

Now, if only they made a laxitive that worked on your mouth…you constantly bash people on these blogs. Perhaps some therapy?

How dare the Senate Majority leader publicly say he can't stand a United States Senator!!!

Whether he agrees or disagrees with John McCain, the people of Arizona elected him to represent them for 6 years. Many millions of people will want him to become the next president of the United States.

If nothing else….follow the old adage: "If you don't have something nice to say about someone, don't say anything".

Mccain temper will destroy this nation, he gets angry very easy, angry people are emotional can not make a good judgement. This guy will go to war with any country that does not agree with him then it will be the end of America.

Not only is the democrate party a party of tax and spend and tax some more, it's a party of wimps. Seems the only ones that truly has any gonads are Hillary and Michell Obama.

Americans must answer this question:

Do you want to be at war with Iran and Russia?

If you answered yes than consider McCain. Oh yeah, and I hope your children are registered for the selective service. Myself, I chose not to support McCain. I don't care how much experience he has. Some experience is bad experience. Give me the rookie.

Reid is a frustrated old man that dosen't like anyone.

At a recent interview, McCain was asked how many homes he owns and he said he'd have to get back about it, he wasn't sure. Alzheimers, stupidity or out of touch–which one?

oooh, Reid is getting fiesty, lol.

Well…
The man is entitled to his opinion.

I just happen to agree!

As a dem in fl.obama is bad for this country.So McCain gets my Vote

How is Obama's message of change going to last when you have a fossel like Reid as Majority leader in the Senate. He is partisan, bitter and as steeped in old politics as anyone.

Hillary Clinton for Majority Leader.
Obama for President
Bayh for Vice President
Biden for Secretary of State

A winning team all around.

Is this what we been reduced to Liberal or Republician? Rather than this political sectarian violence, give me someone who is interested in the tough decisions that have to be made to fix this nation.
No wonder they wants us out of Iraq.

I can't stand Reid…..or Pelosi for that matter.

McCain has bigger problems than Reid not liking him.

McCain, Reid, and Lieberman are all dummies.

Harry Reid and Pelosi have presided over the most do-nothing congress in modern history. I have been a lifelong Democrat and am ashamed at the horrible job our leadership has done. Do you really think that these do-nothings can keep know-nothing Obama in check if he should win the election? They will be worse than the Republican congress with G.W. Bush. They will rubber stamp everything that he wants to do no matter how bad. No matter who wins the election, the next four years are going to be a disaster.

my sentiments exactly. thank you mr. reid.

mcwar is inept and incompetent.

McCain is an old, foul, negative and scandalous jealous loser who definitely prides himself on being ignorant.

When it's all said and done in November, he will be defeated by Sen. Obama. He is so blinded by his own lies and falsehood that it's difficult for him to clearly comprehend that he is the only one who is "out of touch" and lacks experience and judgment on every area that concerns the American people – economy, energy, health care, etc. etc.

It's time for the American people to get it right and NOT vote for McCain, instead vote for change. It's time for this country to turn the page and seek a new and better future for ourselves and our children.It's time for REAL change in Washington, it's time to elect Barack Obama for president !

LMAO, I can't stand Ried, Pelosi or Obama!!!!

Reid can have an honest dislike of someone. He expressed problems with McCain. Have you known an office or area that everyone gets along? If you have, I'd like to know where you work or live.

Bobie — how is McCain or Reid more honest than the other? Have you known both of them for a considerable period of time?

The current support for Congress is even lower than the support for Bush. Who cares what the leader of one of the most unpopular houses of congress ever says.

I agree with Harry, except Lie-berman has to go!

bobie – Bush is the one who literally was caught on camera hold the flag upside down.

Bush destroyed America with 6 years of personal war.

Why don't you stop taking right wing Rush trash as gospel and keep an open mind?????

Reid is nothing but a partisan hack and, like Obama, leadership of,

THE

MOST

DESPISED

CONGRESS

IN

HISTORY!!!

Harry Reid is irrelevant because Congress has a 9% approval rating, less than 1/2 that of Bush.

Reid, along with Murtha, Bidon, and Pelosi bashed our troops, which is unforgivable. They should all be gone.

Ditto, I can't stand him either. Add on Karl Rove, Dick Cheney and Rick Warren.

Obama 08

Big mistake Reid. Democrats have not been the in-the-gutter types that the Republicans relish and now is no time to start.

I do have to agree with the right wingers on your performance the last 2 years. I know you do not have a clear majority but I barely saw any effort from you. If Hillary is not Obama's VP pick, maybe she should be Senate majority leader.

Mike, Syracuse, NY

You know better, I have read many of your post and you are intellegent.
Don't feed on others lack of it, the veto stamp has held them hostage but like I said, you already know that.

Obama 08

Reid is right about one thing–McCain's temperament.

The more I read about his anger management problems (including comments from his own Republican colleagues) the more I worry that he may have untreated PTSD.

As the Saddleback forum showed, he is obsessed with war–even questions that had nothing to do with foreign policy, he turned into answers with war.

And his empty boasts, "I know how to win wars" and "I know how to find bin Laden" are equally disturbing.

The temperament of a president is VERY important. I really worry about McCain's judgment being influenced by too much anger in the WH.

I agree wholeheartedly with you Harry Reid. I can't stand him either – he is so negative and nasty. He is so wrong for this country. Under his administration nothing in Washington will change. Nothing of real concern to the American people will get done because he has no new ideas, no vision, no policies outside of Bush that will move us successfully forward in the 21st century. He doesn't have a health care plan, nor an education plan. He is weak , inexperienced and lacks good judgment on the economy and a whole host of issues.

It's time for the American people to get it right and NOT vote for McCain, instead vote for change. It's time for this country to turn the page and seek a new and better future for ourselves and our children.It's time for REAL change in Washington, it's time to elect Barack Obama for president !

"I can't stand McCain."

That sounds like words from an old R&B song.
"I can't stand the rain!"

Reid and Pelosi are the two most unprofessional congressional leaders I've seen in my lifetime. And add Howard Dean to that mix. Nice people.

Any man who stands with a president who will torture is wrong fo the country.

Reid is right, McCain doesn't have the temperament for the job.

Obama 08

EDW

In your claim that McCain knew all the questions before he got to the stage not only is unfounded but untrue. Fact, he is a person that answers fast to any question. So am I, does that make me a cheater when I am asked questions for big tests? Heck no, sometimes I even answer before the question is through just cause I have the jist of it before it is done. In also stating this you call a well renouned and honest christian a liar when he publically stated that McCain did not break the cone of silence or know the questions afore hand. Manly the pastor. So if you can't beat him, denounce his performance as cheating. Isnt that how it always goes?

Reid commenting on Senator McCain strengthens my view on what is right for America . . . and it is not Senator Reid.

Vote McCain 2008

That's OK, most people can't stand Harry Reid.

Just another example of how the democrats put personal feelings above doing what's right for the country. Ever since the 2000 election, it's been the democrats unwilling to work with the other side. Their anger has completely blinded them, almost to a fervent, religious pitch.

Harry is prbably the most unpopular Senator with voters.

THANK GOD someone willing to TELL IT like it is.

I can' stand him either…..John McCain is a RICH ELITISTS going around pandering that he will follow Bin Laden into the Gates of Hell, what he DIDN'T tell you is that he plans to reinstitute the DRAFT and send ALL your sons and daughters in HARMS way again!!

This is also a manipulative John McCain, who clearly sat in front of hundreds of faith based voters and PANDERED, PANDERED, PANDERED his WELL-REHEARSED religion like a well-oiled car salesman!! His only focus was to SELL MY LIES, SELL MY LIES, SELL MY LIES!! EASY SUCKERS!!! EASY SUCKERS!!! EASY SUCKERS!!! For someone who claims to cling to his faith, he NEVER every talks about his faith until he's sitting in front of a faith based audience, SHAMEFUL!!

My grandma always told me there are MORE SINNERS claiming to have "FAITH" in "God's holy word", when in fact these same people are doing nothing but getting RICH off the Church and God's words. MORE sinners in the church then there are Saints!!

I can't stand McBush either!

I can't stand him either. He is a dangerous old fool who will do anything to get elected, with lies and deception and will take this country to ruin.

Reid is just another of many whinny far left liberals who have done nothing for this Nation but to try and drag it's name in the mud. Him and Pelosi are a joke and their poll numbers reflects it.

LMAO

@ Down With the DNC who said : "Hillary is not McCain. Obama's position is Hillary's position.
———————-
SO expalin to me again you worthless PUMA, if Hillary and Barack's positions are the same, then why are you voting for McCAin? You are getting tripped up in your own mis guided hatred.
————————-

I don't hate anyone. I never said I was voting McCain but I might as I do respect him. And someone else was right, you are the reason PUMA exists.

You really need to have some candy and relax before you have an anurism. My problem isn't with Obama; my problem is with nasty people like you and the corruption of the DNC. Just yesterday, Obama was looking for suggestions to make the primaries more fair. I agree with him.

Now, if only they made a laxitive that worked on your mouth…you constantly bash people on these blogs. Perhaps some therapy?

Let Liebermann go after the elections.

The reason why Congress has been effective is because you need a 60 person majority to avoid a filibuster, a tactic that has been effectively used by the GOP. In addition, Bush is veto happy, and stamps no on everything the Democratic Congress proposes. I love how people try to twist this around.

BTW, I can't stand McCain either.

Reid I can't stand you and Pelosi – A Democrat

Mccain doesn't have the right anything to be commander in chief so in essence Reid I agree wholeheartedly with you.

Hey CNN – I said – who gives a big RA's who Harry Reid likes or dislikes? No one likes him! He's a joke.

Bobie its the republicans who have destoyed America

Thanks to the republican George Bush and Dick Cheney

Think back when Bill Clinton was president……..

The economy was good and we werent 10 trillion dollars in debt

You need a reality check.

I agree with Reid, I can't stand McCain either. Reid is right, he doesn't have the right temperament to be president. He has an anger problem and will do and say anything to win.

Being kissed by George Bush doesn't endure me to him either.

Barack is right in that we should not have to tear each other down to pick a president, but what can I say, it works for the Republicans. They had an ill-prepared man in the White House for 8 years. I'd say that was a reason to keep the mud flying–it works.

Liberal Twit!!!

Reid, Peloser, and Dean are just upset that the golden boy isn't running away with the election.

Sour Grapes Much?

This is the worst congress since the founding of our government.

McCain '08!!

In your dreams mcCain!

"One particular politician several months aback was for setting time-table for withdrawal and the White House the Republicans(including John McCain) vilified that person.
A certain politician suggested many months aback that we attack Al Qaida in Pakistan and the White House and the Republicans(including John McCain) vilified that person.
A certain politician suggested engaging North Korea and Iran diplomatically several months aback and the White House and the Republicans(including John McCain) vilified that person.
A certain politician warned of the dire situation in Afghanistan and the need to address the situation several months aback and that politician was vilified by the White House and the Republicans(including John McCain.

This "certain politician" is Senator Obama.

After several months with events playing it seems Senator has demonstrated sound judgment, foresight and to lead this country in the direction that is in the best interest of the country.
Senator McCain and the Republicans have no vision have consistently demonstrated their lack of vision to lead this country.
Fundamentally Judgment trumps experience, and that is what this election should be about.
This election should be a referendum on where we the citizens want this country to go. Do we want to take the lead or be led?
If we want to lead then the clear choice is the Senator from Illinois.
If we want to be mere observes in the scheme of things then the Senator from Arizona is the clear choice".

"The current Congress has done less than any Congress in 20 years."

The current Congress doesn't have a veto-proof majority and its got a hostile idiot president who vetoes anything across his desk that wasn't sponsored *and* cosponsored by Republicans.

typical liberal hatred for good honest americans

————————————————————

Who you calling good and honest? Mc Cain cheated on his first wife who waited 7 years for him to come home.

does Reid understand that a lot of people do not like he or Peloski.

Way to go Harry….Its about time a democrat starts speaking the truth…

S U G G E S T—-P O L I T I C A L—–E N E M A ! ! ! !

Who cares what Reid says, he is such a joke. His democratic led Congress is the worst in the history of this nation. Their rating is even lower than Pres. Bush's rating. It is long overdue for term limits. Governors have term limit, Presidents have term limits why not Senators. If they can't be of any value after two terms they should leave. What has Reid accomplished in 20 years. I am betting that a lot of people can't stand Reid either.

"The top Senate Democrat also said McCain is wrong on a host of issues and 'does not have the right temperament' to be commander-in-chief."

What exactly is the "right temperament," Senator Reid? Does it involve the inclination to trash talk those with whom one disagrees?

"All my close votes, he's always with me, whether it's the budget or energy issues," he said of Lieberman. "No matter what it is, he's always with us. He just does not vote right on Iraq. … Why would I want to throw away a good vote?"

Beeeeecause he's a Republican? Maybe? That sound like a good reason to not have him in the Democratic caucus?

I wish Mr. Reid would look in the mirror and/or listen to some of his constant whining. If there was anybody in the Senate that people couldn't stand, Mr. Harry Reid would be at the top of the list.

The majority of Americans agree with Harry.

no mccain

Why isn't more being said about John McCain's longtime reputation for having a volcanic temper?

His own Republican collegue from Alabama said that he didn't like John McCain and it is obvious that McCain is not suited for sensitive job of being President.

oh come on Mike…how many times do i have to tell you. the Dems hold the Majority by 1 seat, not enough to over ride the record filibusters by the Repubs…McCain also has the worst record for Vets and woman. he is also the the record holder absentee

who does? only the fools who voted george dubya twice can stand john mcshame!

the truth about the two-faced, lying adulterer will be out in the open soon. STAY TUNED REPUBLICAN BIGOTS!!!!!!

I cant stand McCain either.

Hate is such a strong word for a has been!

Of course you will ALWAYS welcome Joe Leiberman. If not, then all it takes is for Leiberman to become a Republican and guess what? You have lost the Senate. Geez, how dumb Americans must be, Harry. Moron!

Me, neither!

OBAMA 08

We can't stand him either Mr. Reid. Thanks for the honesty and forthrightness. Expose the hatemongers for who they are!!!!!!

I LOVE Harry Reid…………He is the real Maverick! He speaks his mind and puts McCain in his place. I support Reid and his comment 100%. I feel the same way.

McCain is WRONG for America!!!!

i'm sure he can't stand u either Reid. So its all good. Is this the new politics from Barry and his supporters?

And guess what the American people can’t stand you or that Pelosi character.

You went on Vacation while we paid over $4 for gas. No wonder your approval rating is at 8%.

I WILL NEVER FORGET how you call the WAR LOST for political gain.

I can’t stand you Reid.

Truth is McSame needs Independent Joe to win this election. There are 4 million more Dems since 2004 and 500,000 less republicans. What does that mean? McCain needs Joe to come get folks like me, registered independents. No matter what all you Dems and Repubs say, if Joe is on McSames ticket, I might just start calling him McCain, and seriously consider voting for him.

It might be an easy decision for Dems, but not for me, though I would probably still vote for Obama. I would still seriously consider a Joe/McCain ticket though.

i say ,get rid of the senator from israel.no more war!issue no.1!

A lot of us know how you feel Sen. Reid, most people in this country can't stand McBush either.

no draft…no mccain!!!!!!!!!
. McCain should be scrutinized…just like Obama has been. his character is in question, so are his ethics…john McCain has some 59 LOBBYIST running his campaign, that's not America first, John McCain gave up important Military info after 4 days, that's not putting his country before his own person, John McCain committed adultery, that's not a leader you can trust, John Mccain has lived off of the American people all of his life, owns 7 home worth 13 million, personal wealth of over 110 million, thinks being rich is making 5 million collects SS and "disability…why disability? yet he want us to believe he knows our pains…he failed to pay the taxes on his southern CA home. John McCain has the highest absent rate in the Senate, the worst record for Vets and women, supported the illegal war in Iraq, wants war with Iran and Russia, has no clue about economy, saying that "all in all we are doing better (than 8 years ago". says he knows how to "win" a war but has no record to back that claim up. John McCain is running on his war "hero" status, but he pushed legislation making it impossible for families to get info about their MIA/POWs…and still refuses to release his Military records…AND HE WANTS THE DRAFT

Me Either Harry…me either!!!

I can't stand Reid; what an idiot!!!

Another arrogant egotistical snob… he's in the right party.

Hey Reid I can't stand you, Pelosi and Dean. You have never brought anything to the Dem. but a bag of sour wind like your candidate Obama.

I cant stand him either!!

OBAMA 08!

The current Congress has done less than any Congress in 20 years. Why would Reid's opinion matter to anyone? McCain has a record of bipartisanship. Reid is nothing but a partisan attack dog; and one with no teeth at that.

McWar needs to explain how he was dumb enough to get caught early in his military career, and spent a long war not fighting but being held captive. Wow what a hero. No guns blazing – shoot your way out of anything – defend America. Just tortured spilling your guts against America. Through diplomatic means, and his father power he was allowed to live. It's laughable that people consider him a hero and strong on war. He spent his time in captivity during war. Is that what he plans to teach us? He was flying a plane he was too dumb to know how to fly and got shot down. Maybe if he wasn't a C student he would have been able to learn the technics to manuever out of position and not get shot down. My grandfather flew endless hours fighting in the same war and he came back a *Real American Hero*.

That's funny! OsiSpeaks.com

Well, I don't see how this could hurt McCain

typical liberal hatred for good honest americans

why do liberals want to destroy america

why is the credentials for NObama's convention in Denver a picture of an upside down flag

NObama is just wrong for america

Americans must love and repect liars. Look at the present administration. Their history of telling the truth is about one sentence long. Their history of lies will go on through eternity as 911 volumes of lies told by President G.W. Bush and Vice President Cheney, among many others. McCain will add on to these volumes because he has learned how to lie from the experts. It is the only way to win an election in America (not counting rigging the votes). McCain's snappy, and concise performance in the Evangelical Church last Saturday, can be credited to his knowledge of all the questions before his performance. He gained points on his carefully crafted answers, no doubt about that. The fact that his numbers immediately rose in the pols, indicates how much Americans love liars…
