		<description>I know that there are a lot of people out there who just despise obama and won&#039;t vote for him because of that, i just want you to take a few minutes and read this article because your vote does count whether he is ahead in the polls or not.&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0%2C8599%2C1853025-1%2C00.html&quot;&gt;http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,...&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>I wouldn’t vote for Senator McCain for all the tea in China. He is a fraud, flip-flopper and a liar.   People talk about him being a hero, my definition of a hero is the wife that stays home a take care of the kids, bill payer, disciplinary and holding the family together while soldiers are their job.  Someone that is willing to throw him/herself on a grenade to save their comrades or will continue fight no matter what the situation is to protect their country ideals or buddies.  That is my definition of a true hero.  McCain cheated on his wife with more than one woman and admitted it and left his wife when she was sickly and needed him the most. To me that is lower than whale crap.  He voted against veteran benefits on many occasions just to go along with the administration policies, but what is just right.  McCain was heavily involved in the Keating 5.  Saying you are a veteran and being a true veteran is two different things.  I severed this country for 42 and 10 months and lose blood for this country and would be proud to do so again if asked, but not for someone that will through their fellow comrades to the wolves just to prove his own political agenda.   Plus if he can’t organize his own campaign how can you organize the country to lead it in the right direction.</description>

		<description>According to the DSM-VI, MCCain DOES show all classic signs and symptoms of PTSD, dementia, depression and a few other cognitive disfunctions. Meds and LOTS of counseling are in order, not the presidency. As a peace-time vet, I find that getting into the VA a nightmare, and I have seen how the VA is now treating VietNam era vets (like 2nd and 3rd class citizens)... I think that maybe it&#039;s time for Mr. McCain to avail himself of the system that he&#039;s helped to create. But then, I also think that ALL members of Congress and the Senate should spend a year living on Welfare and ONLY Welfare...</description>

		<description>John McCain dumped his first wife, who was severely injured in an auto accident while McCain was a POW, and pursued an affair with current wife Cindy while still married to his first wife.  Moreover, he was still on active duty in the Navy while he had the adulterous affair.  Adultery is a violation of Article 134, UCMJ.  Any of us soldiers would have been court-martialed, but the Admiral&#039;s son got away with it.  McCain is not only ant-vet but also anti-family values.</description>

		<description>Dear Washington Independent. Why don&#039;t you write about how John McCain, the self-named war hero, left behind about 600 of his fellow soldiers in Vietnam? I understand that people break under torture and so he accepted to leave beforehand, and this is ok. I understand he is ashamed of that, but there is no need. Only, now comes the big question: what was he doing  AFTER he came back to America? Did he give all his energy and might to fight for his brothers to come back? No! And for this there is no excuse at all. No excuse. Because he did EVERYTHING to BURY EVIDENCE THAT SOME WERE LEFT BEHIND, in spite of thousands of clear signs. See &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nationinstitute.org/p/schanberg09182&quot;&gt;http://www.nationinstitute.org/p/schanberg09182&lt;/a&gt;...&lt;br&gt;And if anyone, for example the family members of missed ones questioned him directly about this he just got an anger fit and 	AVOIDED TO REPLY.&lt;br&gt;How come? Where is the care for his fellow soldiers in such moments? What is going on here? &lt;br&gt;And do you know what: This should be the main subject in all the media right now! America threatens to choose 2 criminals for President and Vice President. One beginner and one long-timer. Media: wake up! People: wake up and make the media comment on what REALLY matters.&lt;br&gt;Check also &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vietnamveteransagainstjohnmccain.org&quot;&gt;www.vietnamveteransagainstjohnmccain.org&lt;/a&gt;</description>
