McCain's morality needs to be examined

The Media can not come up with enough words to condemn John Edwards for his extramarital affair. Rightly so, as no man that treats his wife with so little respect should be allowed to hold any public office.

This being said, what about the other John, John McCain, who had an extrmasrtial affair and actually dumped his ill wife for a wealthy, attractrive young woman.? In fact, McCain even got a marriage license to marry his lover before he divorced his wife, ?Carol.? Nancy Reagan expressed her displeasure at McCain’s philandering. In fact, John McCain wrote in his book that “Nancy was particularly upset with me and treated me with a cool correctness that made her displeasure clear. McCain also wrote that “my marriage collapse was attributable to my own selfishness and immaturity.” John McCain is still selfish and immature. McCain’s vote against women’s equal pay for equal work, his failure to vote for the G.I. Bill for our troops and veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars is a display of selfishness and immaturity. John McCain gets his healthcare from the US taxpayer and he got his education gifted from the US taxpayer. John McCain got his and to hell with anyone else.

It is the media’s responsibility to expose John McCain as a philanderer, selfish and immature, or does the media have a bias for John McCain?

    Give the man a break. John McCain will tell us all tonight what he is going to do to fix the economy and to help us all cope with health care costs. Just hold your breath for his speech tonight. He won't utter one word about how bad Obama is, he'll just address the issues facing our nation. Keep holding!
    I guarantee he'll give everyone a tax break, being the nice man that he is....print, print, print.

    Wechasa,

    What do you bet that we'll hear a lot of "I feel your pain" on the economy from McCain. Never a solution, only an identification with suffering. How do they get away with it? They can go two more months without giving a single solution and a whole lot of Americans will think the Messiah has cloned himself (Sarah too) and returned. Will we thus become ever more irrelevant in a world that is starting to flex its economic and military muscle.

    I would bet Palen does no real interviews, only debates and disappears again. They have even stated they weren't going to have her do press conferences or interviews. Why would you vote for someone that you can't ask any questions.
