After the break, he came right out and said he has no problem with Liddy, who served his time, unlike Ayers, who didn't.

Letterman is clearly an Independent that leans towards the left, that's been obvious for quite some time. Ayers came out in 2001 and said he doesn't regret the bombings and wishes he would have done more, that's just one example of how much of a piece of garbage that man is, and for Nobama to insist he was just some guy in the neighborhood is a crock.

Had Letterman been interviewing Nobama I seriously doubt he would have been trying to back him into a corner the way he was trying to do with McCain. The media absolutely makes me sick, I have never seen them so biased in my life. If I were McCain I would never appear on his show again, and when he continued to suggest that Palin wasn't qualified to be VP I would have said David, please tell me why you feel Nobama is more qualified to be President than Sarah is to be VP. I would have loved to have seen what the liberal host along with his liberal audience would have said.

Why can't journalists be like this? They almost never ask the hard questions and when they do ask them and don't get a direct answer, they never push to get an answer.

Obama also isn't running a campaign based on McCain's association with Liddy - an unrepentent terrorist who held a fundraiser for McCain in his own home


I just don't know how you can vote for someone who clearly hates America like McCain...

Or is that bullsh*t only fair when it comes from a Republican?

To serve time you have to be charged and convicted. He wasn't convicted.

"uh, uh, I met him. Who? Gordon Liddy?"

after the commercial break, realizing he can't lie about this:

"I'm not ashamed to say I know Gordon Liddy".

Notice also how McCain tried his best to brush off Letterman's request that Palin be a guest on his show.
You need to brush up on your "facts".

OMG-McBush held a fund raiser for a convicted convict at his home. Now, just imagine if Obama had done that. We are playing with two different sets of rules. Everytime I hear more about McBush, I am more convinced than ever I am voting for the correct candidate.

Have you won any Olympic skating medals?

You skate beautifully around the FACT that Ayers didn't 'serve his time' because he HAD NONE! Liddy's a convicted criminal, Ayers isn't.

Or did I miss a bulletin, have YOU been appointed arbiter of guilt & innocence and the trial by jury sytem become obsolete?

OMG.. we already have enough McBush-it on the forum, what with the Muslim, Terrorist, Kenyan, etc. etc. and Reps don't seem to think they are doing any mudslinging.. there is on both sides..
