10 Awesomely Revealing Political Gaffes

http://www.bestonlinecolleges.com/blog/2011/10-awesomely-rev...
Every slip of the tongue, bad joke, and below-the-belt comment that is recorded or overheard gets scrutinized by the media and public, as with Rick Perry's majestically awkward brain fart during the CNBC GOP Presidential debate this week.

http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/10/more-gop-jail-time-...
Well… we said it here first when the story first broke broke Jul 29, 2008 - that Ted Stevens would be convicted of 7 counts of lying on Congressional financial statements, after reviewing the extensive evidence. The obnoxious longtime Republican Senator did NOT help himself being argumentative during his trial testimony. See our initial story here.

Karl Rove’s Deceptive McCain Debate Strategy Backfires
2 / 0
http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/09/karl-roves-deceptiv...
If there ever was a topic McCain was suppose to command in the Presidential debates was Foreign Policy and McCain could not close the deal in the first debate with Barack Obama . This was McCain’s best shot at scoring significant points with Independent voters with his huge advantage of 26 years in Congress (21 of those years in the Senate), but he somehow found a way to miss the opportunity! Complete debate transcripts available to view/download at end of article.

House Minority Leader John A.

McCain Gets GOP Nod & RNC Speeches including Sarah Palin - Surprise Many
1 / 0
http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/09/mccain-gop-nod-gop-...
The carefully GOP manipulated TV coverage of the RNC Wednesday night was an interesting sociological snapshot of the base of supporters physically present.
You would have thought that some of the nationally known speakers - Meg Whitman, founder of that small little company E-Bay and Carly Fiorina, former chief executive of Hewlett-Packard were giving a speech to themselves inside a closet when talking of GOP reform and prosperity in the future - absolutely NO response what-so-ever from the convention hall packed audience. Truly astonishing, because some issues discussed to be accomplished by the potential McCain Presidency were out there and on the far side.

http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/08/mccain-maverick/
" 10% thinking & 90+% Bush approval voting record…" Maverick?
…the emperor has truly been stripped of his clothes" Is it the McCain age factor - 72, blatant deception or just complicit mental idleness and an inclination towards being a rubber stamp GOP yes man for the Bush White House failed policies that has now become McCain’s true legacy. The straight talk express is pure political shenanigan at best! Some say John Sidney McCain III is no more than an aged political myth past "his time" and whose life was predestined by his father Real Admiral John S. McCain Jr . and before that his grandfather Admiral John S. McCain Sr. So what happened to John Sidney McCain III ?

John McCain: quot;I think--I ll have my staff get to you quo

http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/08/john-mccain-think-s...
I'm not sure, "I think--I'll have my staff get to you," ... when asked how many homes John McCain and wife Cindy own. What kind of reality is that? Don't you dare take the American People for blooming idiots John McCain- because that will destroy what little credibility you have left faster than a Enron lie!

Is McCain A Coward – Misses 103 Consecutive Senate Votes
3 / 0
http://thejunction.net/justfacts/2008/08/06/mccain-coward-mi...
Does the United States now elect slackers who abuse their privilege of representing this nation by NOT fulfilling their duties in Congress, so they can run for higher office? Or do complacent voters just neglect these facts and further contribute to this compounded problem by simply turning their cheek the other way? Pretty disgusting if you ask me either way- that any U.S. Congressman or U.S. Senator has the impudence to "expect" from American citizens to respect them and their potential future leadership in higher office, when in turn they do NOT deserve the current Congressional seat they are occupying by not performing their existing Constitutional obligation... NOT consequential enough for complacent voters is anyone's guess.

Newsvine - John McCain's VP List: The pros and cons from a conservative's point of view
2 / 0
http://onlineapps.newsvine.com/_news/2008/06/21/1595968-john...
Now that the race is officially on (OK, Keyes hasn't dropped out yet, but he can't win anyway), John McCain has the sticky business of picking a vice president. This is extremely important, especially this year because of his age. Even if he's healthy, we want a strong VP just in case. Additionally, the VP usually ends up becoming the presidential nominee for his party.
