Yeah yeah, we've heard a lot about Obama being a terrorist. It started because of his name, and then the William Ayer connection, etc. Even though McCain also has a connection to Ayer, but whatevs...
No, the new big thing is McCain's possible connection to Iran-Contra: he once served on an advisory board for an international group that was linked to the now famous death squads of Central America.
The council McCain served on was actually a US chapter of the group The World Anti-Communist League, which has ties to Nazi collaborators, and various death squads.
But then again, who really cares. Seriously, is this kind of thing getting old to anyone besides me? Okay, both candidates have ties to some less the reputable characters. I'm pretty sure everyone on the face of the Earth does. So long as our candidates aren't actually terrorists, or terrorist sympathizers, then I'de say we are okay.
Honestly, no matter what connections people bring up about the candidates, is it really going to matter? Yeah, there are a lot of aspects about the American political system that could be deemed corrupt...but come on, even we aren’t that bad.
There are plenty of negative things that can be said about both candidates, so can we keep it reasonable? Okay, McCain had connections…which he separated himself completely from in 1986. Obama new a guy once a long time ago who turned out to be a radical, but that does not mean that Obama is the same kind of person. I mean, I’ve know people who have become porn stars and cocaine dealers. That doesn’t make me either one, so why do both political parties insist on continuously portraying as many bad connections as they can? Connections which get more and more ridiculous with every new release? Seriously, it’s getting old.
