Senator McCain's recent grasp of what should be routine factual data regarding foreign affairs and policy leave much to be desired. He may be outmatched, and Senator Biden will clearly make him angry.

No reason to feel sorry for me my life and family and the buisness I own are all thriving. Yes I answered your topic and added a bit...I thought I said that already. What is your point?

Ok...um, thanks? wrong thread? off topic?.....

Biden, in a July interview, said he would choose Obama's judgment over John McCain's war record and foreign policy experience.
"But 20 years of experience that has not been very solid in terms of projecting what was going to happen just doesn't make you a better commander-in-chief," Biden said. "We don't need as a commander-in-chief a war hero. John's a war hero. We need someone with some wisdom."

Who appears to have a better command of Foreign Policy - Senator Biden or Senator McCain?



There are plenty of plagiarism threads. This isn't one. I'm sorry you missed your time or turn on the plagiarism day. This thread can be a tough topic to discuss, perhaps you should start a plagiarism thread.

You asked me about the plagiarism. I responded and refuted your claims and so now you offer the above...
You lack the fortitude to debate me, as everytime I challenge you and prove you to be wrong you change topic.

My answer from the OP as well as one other.

What is off topic? You went off topic with your questions and because you lack the fortitude to carry on a debate you blame me, and change the topic. I respond to your change of the topic and you fall back to your original line of "I didn't stay on topic". I have offered links and refuted your claims and so now you pose a personal attack in this post. I said before I am sorry that I am not as ill-informed as others. You can continue to blame me or try to make me look foolish, but I will continue to post the facts and the truth. I have spent years debating politics as several from my father's side of the family serve in public office. You can change topic and wriggle around but facts are persistent little things.

Umm, ok. In the meantime you can either stick with your fortitude defense or address the thread topic, or go to the plagiarism threads and have a ball. I've said more than once that I'm sorry for you as well, what more can I do...

I'm betting Senator McCain's recent POW "defense" doesn't work with Senator Biden. He'll be able to go toe to toe with Senator McCain (if he's up to it) otherwise we'll end up seeing a new version of the same.

Wonder how he'll phrase it this time...


"When Dems attacked McCain’s healthcare plan in May, McCain responded by noting his background as a prisoner of war.


Asked by a local reporter about the first thing that comes to his mind when he thinks of Pittsburgh, McCain responded by talking about his background as a prisoner of war.


Accused of possibly having heard the questions in advance of Rick Warren’s recent candidate forum, the McCain campaign responded by highlighting McCain’s background as a prisoner of war."

Bush took those votes, kicked the inspectors out, and went into Iraq without knowing the difference between a baathist and bathtub.

It would be nice, if the right wing chickenhawks could finally own up to Iraq, but it looks as if they are too cowardly to man up and admit it was their war from day one.
It is nice to see the repugs reminded of the facts which they , of course, will ignore....I haven't seen one in here present a fact yet....

Admit that you are wrong! Since I have proved it time and time again.... I have addressed the thread topic already and I will continue to address your disdainful theatrics.

Senator McCain - “[O]n the transcendent issues, the most important issues of our day, I’ve been totally in agreement and support of President Bush.”

Lovely - Senator Biden couldn't ask for a nicer VP gift.
