Let's have a look at John McCain's associations, shall we?

With all the talk about Ayers and ACORN against Obama, however exaggerated, I think it's fair game to bring out some of McCain's own past associations, don't you?

http://www.stopthinkvote.com/whatsnew/mccainsties....

Jim Hensley, Convicted Felon

G. Gordon Liddy, Convicted Felon

Charles Keating, Convicted Felon

Raffaello Follieri, Convicted Felon

Rick Renzi, Under Indictment

Rick Davis, Freddie Mac Lobbyist

Charles Black, Lobbyist for Dictators

Richard Quinn, White Supremist

Pastor John Hagee, Bigot

Pastor Rod Parsley, Bigot

Todd Palin, Member of Secessionist Group

Andrew McCain, Resigned Manager Savings & Loan

For each of these, fully cited with sources. Some of my personal favorites include McCain paying and supporting a white supremacist who sold T-shirts praising the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, a Pastor who believes Hurricane Katrina was God's anger towards homosexuals, and McCain's current chief strategist and a senior adviser that has supported right-winged extremist dictatorships all over the world.

So McCain supporters, if you can attack Obama on the basis of guilt by association, this is all fair game.

    I was just watching CNN and guess WHO also was a supporter of ACORN???? JOHN MCCAIN...he was a keynote speaker at an ACORN rally...

    http://politicalinquirer.com/2008/10/14/mccain-was...

    and CNN again points out the difference between voter registration fraud and voter fraud...voter registration fraud...Mickey Mouse's name on a voter card, problem is Mickey Mouse doesn't have an ID and won't be able to vote....voter fraud...(Florida).

    And also, and they call Obama supporters mindless zombies...oh well.

    Just picking a running mate that charged rape victims up to $1000, for the rape kit to be done after they were raped if they didn't have insurance to cover the charges was more than enough for me.

    I believe in saving tax payers money but that was not the way to do it. The report that read from the Wasilla paper said she saved them anywhere from 5 to 14 thousand per year.

    What scares me the most, is the fact that if something happens to McCain, she will be the President.

    Just plain scary.

    Wow! Those are some pretty scary associations!

    Especially Pastor Hagee and Richard Quin and Charles Keeting!

    McCain is much riskier and more dangerous than I thought.

    Let's compare time in public office verses number of so called "bad Associates" Twenty-six years in public service and this is all you can come up with on McCain. Hm,wonder how long Obama's list will be in another twenty-four years?

    Unbelievable....that's why Obama is at 53% and McCain at 39% and slipping.

    I find it interesting that if you click onto your source site and scroll downward you will see their sources for this misinformation. As usual, it is ALL LIBERAL MEDIA. From the N.Y. Times to the L.A. Times to everything in between including mother jones,politico.com, MSNBC (Most Significant National Barack Channel), you name it, they are all liberal rags. Nice try.....

    Source(s): You own source shot itself in the foot...
