McCain calls didnt link Obama to Ayres
Obama’s actions did

Obama said in the last debate the he would bring about fundamental change. I think our fundamentals like having a government based on our constitution, religion and society were hard work is rewarded are just fine. Obama’s change is not the kind of change we need. Obama just wants our $$change. CHA CHING!! I don’t want to be forced to give my hard earned money to healthy people who don’t work and to politicians that will use my hard earned money to buy more votes for themselves and their friends. I give to the needy via charity not deadbeats. I cannot support the Marxist Obama.

Anything but ther economy! Good God, the GOP and BushMcCain can’t talk about the economy! Let’s bring up, lies and more lies but, anything but the economy!

Apparently the “robo-calls” are not the only “robos” here. However, name-calling is just another form of not-thinking and prejudice.

It would be one thing if you could actually give facts and reasoned arguments for your position, but sadly all you have is unwarranted and unfounded prejudice.

That is the tired Karl Rove-Roger Ailes routine — tell the lie with one “truthful” element, repeat the lie and have others repeat it, interview those same others as if they are reporting something new, restate the lie then as a fact, then tell others who disagree and insist on the facts that they do not have the “right understanding”. Of course the lie is still a lie.

Perhaps it is time to resurrect the photos of John McCain and the video of John McCain denouncing the country he loves so much. That might have some small impact. Fortunately, Senator Obama has more civility than this tired desperate man Senator McCain is rapidly devolving into.

Sigh….

I’ve been saying it contstantly in this forum: republican robots. I rest my well stated case.

The people who are so exercised about the Ayers thing have never offered to or been asked to give back to their communities by serving on leadership boards and interacting with other community leaders. They are cave dwellers like posters 1 and 2 that subsist on a daily dose of republican talking points. If you had been invited to sit on a board - if any group would actually decide that you had some leadership quality or capacity - you would understand that the job does not come with a binder containing the life histories of those with whom you serve. Your job as a board member is about the organization and how best to lead it. It’s not a social club or square dance lesson, it’s a governing body. And remember, it was not Senator Obama that chose Ayers to serve on the board so he had no cause to consider his background. By your logic, I associate with felons because a guy that cleans my office, and with whom I sometimes chat as I leave in the evening, has a record. And God only knows who is sitting next to me in church on Sunday. Guess its my responsiblity to run background checks on everyone with whom I associate, no matter how loose the association might be.

Quick question: Would any of the previous responders be willing to sit on a board with Ayers?

Quick answer in the form of a question just in case non of the previous responders are available - What does your question have to do with the price of tea in China?

I voted for John McCain in 2000 because I believed him to be an honest man of character. After listening to the despicable automated phone call that I recieved yesterday from John McCain and the RNC I no longer believe that to be true. Is his desire for the presidency so overwhelming that he is willing to forgo honor and decency in a desperate grab for votes.

He will never get my vote again. I look forward to his loss and retirement from the Senate.

Dear Amazedbythlunacy,
The answer is yes. I would. Since his time with the Weather Underground, Ayers has been giving back to the community and working in charity organizations and shouldn’t be condemned for the idealism of his youth.
I would also not be opposed to spending an evening with him discussing the Weather Underground and the history that spawned it and other groups like them. What kind of abuse of power in America would cause someone to go underground? LBJ, Nixon, and the other architects of the War in Vietnam, the secret bombing of peasant populations over political ideology, the police violence against demonstrators, the killings at Kent State and other other places, the draft, the lies from the White House, and the list goes on.
It takes an IQ of less than room temperature and an objective look at US history to realize it was a different time in America then.
