Here's a link to the Times story. Weaver is not his campaign manager, he's an advisor. He also did not cooberate that statement.

Damn you Coalkirk!!! You even had to fix my misspelling of the word "cooberate" didn't you!!

Exerpt:

"John Weaver, a former top strategist and now an informal campaign adviser, said in an e-mail message that he arranged the meeting after “a discussion among the campaign leadership” about her.

“Our political messaging during that time period centered around taking on the special interests and placing the nation’s interests before either personal or special interest,” Mr. Weaver continued. “Ms. Iseman’s involvement in the campaign, it was felt by us, could undermine that effort.”

Mr. Weaver added that the brief conversation was only about “her conduct and what she allegedly had told people, which made its way back to us.” He declined to elaborate.

It is not clear what effect the warnings had; the associates said their concerns receded in the heat of the campaign.

Ms. Iseman acknowledged meeting with Mr. Weaver, but disputed his account. "




Sounds like a story to me. Wanna bet more will be coming out that McCain's denials wont hold together on?

I didn't care for him much .But that trial was such a waste of time and money .As long as it isn't me they are screwing with I don't care . Most politicians are thieves liars or crooks . Why is it that everyone is so suprised when they get caught ?

I don't care who's sexualy screwing who. The only "screwing" I care about is that which we taxpayers have been undergoing for the last 7 years by this administration, without even sending us flowers or candy afterward. (see how I managed to slip Bush in here somehow?!)

As for George Bush, he is a liberal in sheeps clothing. The reason no one with any leadership quality will run for pres. is the anal exam that you recieve. Me personaly, I have a whole cemetary in my closet. If that @#$%! steals the delegates from Micigan and Florida after they all agreed not to, it will cause a huge fight amongst the demacrats wich will probably cause Mccain to win.

That would work for me!

Think about it, if a candidate cheats on his wife especially a wife who bore his child he wouldn't think twice about screwing you or me.

Nobody will get screwed if Hitlerary gets elected. Just ask Bill. "She didn't screw me when I was in the white house
, thats why I went to Monica".

I've hear that argument before and I'm not so sure I'd agree with it. We're programmed to have sex often and single partners is not part of the deal . The idea of one man to one woman is an ideal thought up by modern man, it's not part of our instincts. Trying to repress primal urges is whole lot harder than dealing with moral issues.

You are breaking the vow of marriage. Our forefathers wouldn't let Utah become a state until they rejected polygamy. If you want to screw around don't get married. I don't want a leader who hasn't got that kind of control & what message does that send our children?

I really wish someone would specify what this great "Change" is gonna be. Anyone can simply say we need change. How 'bout specifying what you are going to change and exactly how you plan on doing it.
Osama,err,,, OBAMA is a very good cheerleader and has great pep rallies but there is absolutely zero substance and very vague explanations on what this all elusive change is gonna be under his reign.

I watched one of his speeches/pep rallies and it was so vague on hard answers that all I could think of was what the principal in the movie Billy Madison said to Billy about one of his answers....

"Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

Frankly I think the views expressed by many people on sexuality in the U.S. are quite absurd, insencere and are the root of many problems in the U.S. Many of them are only doing it for their public image, you only have to look at all the sexual scandals that crop up. Politicians, Priests, Ministers, the Guy down the street... Pee-Wee Herman... These are only the ones that get caught.

Marriage is a great institution but I don't think the physical act really has anything to do with it. If you can stick with one partner congratulations. You should be commended but condemning someone else because they can't/don't want to isn't acceptable in my book either. The point is I think there is lot of can't/don't want to people out there both women and men whom are only following along because its what's they have been taught from early age you're supposed to do.

If I did, I assure you it was by dumb luck! I've never written that word before. If there is a spell check on this forum, I sure as hell can't find it. Nobody on this forum seems to get too upset with misspelled words so I don't worry too much about it. Another forum I participate in they are anal about it so I try to be more careful there.

How about these small changes to start with;

1. Ending an occupation of Iraq that is wasting US lives each month, making us less safe & costing billions of dollars a month we could spend right here in the US.
2. Having the Justice Dept actualy go after criminals rather than political enemies.
2. Having a President who adheres to the Constitution & doesnt laugh at it with "signing statement."
4. Regaining some respect in the world so that our citizens are embassys are not bombed & our cigtizens safer abroad.
5. Reinstituting some competition in the oil industry so that most Americans (not just us smart coal burners) can heat their homes & drive their cars
6. Getting back to paying for what our government spends instead of putting it on the backs of our grandchildren.
7. Making "Accountability" mean something again
8. Restoring a system of "Checks & Balances" on our King....oops, President.

Just a few that leap to mind as I have errands to run.

Trying to talk some sense into you Devil is fruitless.
