McCain's Flight Instructor says he is unfit to serve as Commander...

I was John McCain's Navy Flight Instructor --- in formation tactics
and air-to-air-gunnery. I could write a book about this man. Suffice
to state, I Shudder (and I'm Fearless) at the Nightmare thought of
this man becoming our next President and Commander in Chief.

I am not alone as to this man's former shipmates, instructors and senior
officers --- as to who and what this man is really all about.
Although politics is really theater and the best performing actor
gets to stay on the main stage --- sorta like American Idol only
much more dangerous to all living things --- .....

Thanx for having the guts to put the real deal information on the
site re: John Sidney McCain III --- since the mainstream media is
much too lazy to put the real story on McCain out there for the rest
of their lazy consumers.

Best regards,

CDR Jerry K. Loeb, USN (Ret.)

I don't agree with the conspiracy aspects of this article but it does elaborate on the inter-relationship of the dollar devaluation and oil.

I'm one of the 2/3 of unhappy people.

I didn't read most of what was posted, but know that things can always be better.

Your(op) stats are BS.

94.5% employment?  After your unemployment eligibility runs out, you are no longer considered unemployed.

Yes I am grateful to not live in a 3rd world country, but being happy with a steaming pile of crap because it has corn and nuts mixed in is insane. 

People seem to think it's bad that other countries hate America, but wouldn't it be nice if Mexico hated America more?

MEXICAN 1: Let's illegal sneak into America.

MEXICAN 2: No. I hate that country.

Problem solved!

The ironic thing is that Americans pay to go to Mexico and many Mexicans crawl under the fence for free.

While I certainly appreciate Reuters writing these two stories, I wonder why they did not get wider play in the Credentialed Media. First, from July 12th

Iraq's combat troops will be almost fully formed by the middle of 2009, according to the senior U.S. Army officer who led the training of Iraqi security forces.

On to July 16

Iraq hopes to have security control of all its provinces by the year-end, the national security adviser said on Wednesday, underscoring the government's growing confidence in its own forces.

I wonder if the paper of record could step up and tell us these kinds of things, along with the rest of the CM's. They have done all they can to force a surrender in Iraq, along with their little helpers in the left-o-sphere and, oh yes, the treason lobby in Congress. Now that things are coming to fruition - and, remind me, which presidential candidate wants to just surrender, and which one has been pushing for a complete win? - most of the Credentialed Media has ignored Iraq

Rat..youre an idiot. The same people that told us Iraq would "be a cakewalk", Mission Accomoplished" Greeted as liberators" are now telling us Iraq troops might be ready in a year....You dumber & more naive than I thought.

Ugly, I have to agree with you. Anyone who believes the party line about how well things are proceeding in Iraq and when the Iraqi troops will be ready to take-over is a sucker, given the track record to this point. We have heard this bull for the past 5 years.

Bush actually said that the economy was in good shape at his recent press conference with continued growth, productivity increases, etc.  totally oblivious of what is happening to the average person. I don't know if Obama or McCain will do any better than Bush but it would be hard to do any worse.

We have a troubled economy and things are a lot worse for individuals because of irresponsible spending and predatory lending practices as evident in this article:

Don Corleone, you say you disagree with DR's OP without any specifics?
