McCain’s Troublesome Endorsement

by @ 2:59 pm on March 5, 2008.

No, I’m not talking about the crazy preacher, just the unpopular President:

WASHINGTON (CNN) — President Bush endorsed Sen. John McCain for president on Wednesday, saying the presumptive Republican nominee has the “character, courage and perseverance” to lead the country.

McCain thanked the president for his support and the work he has done in the Oval Office.

“I appreciate his endorsement, and I appreciate his service to our country,” said McCain, adding that he wanted Bush at his side as much as possible on the campaign trail.

“Whatever he wants me to do, I want him to win,” Bush said, who was challenged by McCain for the GOP nomination in 2000. But he said the 2008 run for the Oval Office was not his battle.

“It’s not about me. I’ve done my bit,” Bush said.

Addressing the calls for change in the presidential campaign, Bush said McCain would be steadfast to one of his administration’s policies.

“He’s not gonna change when it comes to taking on the enemy,” Bush said of the senator from Arizona.

Protecting the American people was the No. 1 job of a president and McCain understood that, Bush said

Well, you know, it’s best to get these embarrassing endorsements out of the way early in the hope that people will forget about them.

    Its interesting to note here .. Where is Mccain’s lapel pin

    Yeah where is the pin? Oops, I guess he is not very patriotic. Feather in the cap for Obama.

    On the real side though, these two men are really friends, and we are supposed to get rid of the war mongers, which both of them are. However, the Democrats should take note, that the only one who can beat McCain is Obama, Obama has been against the war from the start.

    Don’t vote for John McCain.
    He is another George Bush, and you know what we got with Bush.
    McCain like Bush, has no clue, spends money, and laughs about it all like a moron.
    McCain = Bush.
    We don’t need another 4 or 8 years of that.
    Life was better before Bush.
    Vote for a Democrat, and life will be better without McCain.
    I am,
