John McCain Acceptance Speech Drinking Game

Re: John McCain Acceptance Speech Drinking Game

^The Republicans struggled to find one minority to put on the stage during the convention. The only guy they had stayed in the south to prepare for hurricane stuff. So, they had not one minority. lol. Not ONE??? Nice work guys. Panning through the crowd, the obligatory shots of veterans with their hats on got to be a bit much imo. They also kept giving shots of the same group of young college aged girls, as if to say, "see, we have young people that support us too." The rest of the crowd needed a diaper change and a new bottle of oxygen.

who cares about minorities? it's the IDEAS that count. And they were lacking more in sound political philosophy than they were in minorities last night.

Check this lovely bit out from his speech:

"I understand free trade is not a positive for everyone. If a worker loses a job we must retrain them and prepare them for 21st Century jobs. That's why I have proposed a comprehensive reform of our unemployment insurance and worker retraining programs. We will use our community colleges to help train workers for specific opportunities in their communities. And for workers of a certain age who have lost a job that won't come back, we'll help make up the difference in wages between their old job and a temporary, lower paid one until they've completed retraining and found secure new employment at a decent wage. "

Also, i know they're just buzz words, but i think it's pretty funny that McCain has taken a page from Obama's campaign, obviously noticing what americans want to hear seeing Obama's success, and now McCain is running on "Change" and "Transparent Government" + "POW" "Military" "Safety" "Terrorists" etc. I expect a "Kitchen Sink" ad in the coming weeks.

lol wait wut? he did talk about the economy, go back and read/listen/watch the speech

what was obama's talk of the economy? ill do everything for everyone... i'll pay for everyone and for everything. how?

imo speech was ok, thought the best part was when he said he will stop sending billions of dollars in aid to those who dont support us. im sick of my money getting spent on people who hate us while people here at home are suffering...

btw, did obama change his stance on becoming oil independent in 10 years? did he realize how assinine that was? im glad one of his 5 million advisors finally told him what an idiot he is... much like the whole georgia thing (let's let the un security council deal with it)...

Hey don't get me wrong I don't like either of them..

It seems that you have your pick as Americans to vote for a noose (McCain) or lethal injection (Obama) either one is going to fuck everything up

Mind if I ask what *you* are doing to change this? Not saying this is you, but so many people making this same statement still drive large SUV's they really have no need for. We (as Americans) make a lot of symbolic gestures but nothing that actually does anything to change what we complain about.

At both the DNC and RNC you saw people waving mini US flags around... which were made in China.

i do have a need for a large suv as i have a decent size family, 3 dogs (1 big), and the need to haul stuff around...

but asking what else i do with my $? i do donate to various charities throughout the year (local/national charities). im just sick of our money going out to help other countries (most of which are against us) when our country and economy is going to shit

btw i wasnt referring to globalization, but all the money we are giving away in aid. yes aid is good, but we should probably aid ourselves first. unfortunately obama wants to give more money in external aid as well...

Re: John McCain Acceptance Speech Drinking Game

^^^ Sorry, my brain crossed your two paragraphs. For some reason I thought your statement about money was related to oil independence. Guess I should stop trying to multitask.
