you havent met your conditions, plain and simple
so find where he has answered "everything else" with "I am a POW" like you claimed...or maybe you know its impossible to address "everything"...well maybe you shouldve thought of that before you lied and claimed he had answered everything with that answer...maybe you shouldve thought of that] 9/17/2008 12:49:09 PM |

Lord have mercy. I guess it is a good thing that McCain didn't use the POW excuse for why is 24 year old daughter is unemployed, otherwise Twista wouldn't have something to think he won on.
The point still stands, I have provided many instances in which McCain was caught in a bind and used the POW card, where as you have not once found one instance of Obama being in a bind and using the "hope and change" card.
You are grasping at straws. Why can't you take your owning like a man? 9/17/2008 12:52:17 PM |

You would think that by this point in time a few of you might come to realize just how absurd you are sounding. It's also quite curious that everyone that this comment applies to, supports McCain.

Maybe yes, maybe no. All of the Republican presidents for the last 30 years have campaigned as "fiscal conservatives" (as opposed to those "tax and spend" liberals). In each case, the deficits have ballooned. The only "tax and spend" liberal that got in reduced the deficit.
When called out on it, Republicans either blame congress or say, "Hey, they weren't real fiscal conservatives. But trust us this time" ....9/17/2008 12:59:00 PM |

^^Why don't you get on your google machine and find one instance of Obama dodging a question by using the "hope and change" card. You haven't because you can't.
I have provided enough instances to show a history of McCain dodging direct questions by using the POW card. If that is not enough for you, then what is? are you still grasping at the "everything" statement?
I have asked for one instance and you cannot provide that. Man up and admit you are wrong and it will go easier for you. 9/17/2008 12:59:14 PM |

Quote : | "In psychology, cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling or stress caused by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a fundamental cognitive drive to reduce this dissonance by modifying an existing belief, or rejecting one of the contradictory ideas.
Often one of the ideas is a fundamental element of ego, like "I am a good person" or "I made the right decision." This can result in rationalization when a person is presented with evidence of a bad choice, or in other cases. Prevention of cognitive dissonance may also contribute to confirmation bias or denial of discomforting evidence." |

you know nutsmackr heres a thought...dont claim McCain has dodged questions on "everything" with "I was a POW" when you can't back it up with examples of "everything"...oh thats nitpicking by me? what the fuck is your whole premise here? ignoring that obama has in fact run on an entire platform of hope and change by trying to pigeonhole me into finding a direct quote?
you still have yet to meet your impossible-to-meet criteria that you claimed was true...i never had any intent on looking up one of the (i'm sure many) quotes of obama dodging questions with hope and change...because you could never meet the conditions that you claimed
you've got obama's dick so far down you're throat, if someone asked mccain himself why he doesnt have full use of his arms and he says because of POW injuries, you'd call that "dodging a question with I was a POW"

yes, that one hyperbolic statement using the word "everything" completely negates the entire premise that John McCain pulls out the POW card when he wants to dodge a tough questioin.
