From our pal Faux Smoke,
(This email arrived hot on the heels of the debate, and is raw and uncut.)
"Feel free to post this or share it with whom you'd wish.. I figure it is important that people know the truth, even if it was about the most brief of lies that took place during this most recent debate.
This son of a bitch tried to insinuate that he had done something good on behalf of the American people in regards to a DOD & USAF tanker bid... when the truth is, John McCain had actually tried to take American based contract jobs & work for the USAF & send them over seas...
John McCain wanted to sent the contract over to Airbus [a European aerospace company] where the DOD & Air force would get a worse product for more money [an incomplete product at that, one the USAF would have to put together themselves… even though nobody knew how they would manage to put it together themselves, McCain insisted that this was the plan to go with] instead of contracting to Boeing [an American company, that regularly does fair & equitable contracts with the US gov. such as a little thing most folks know as Air Force One] and getting the best product for the least cost [which, the money from would be going directly back into the American market & some of it would technically go back to the American government as tax revenue]...
My local state senator, Patty Murray, went to fight McCain's proposal & exposed what is now called the "tanker scandal" by most that followed it... Employees of Boeing, all across the country, like my father, rallied against that proposal McCain is trying to claim was doing something good for us...
John McCain is a fucking liar, he didn't do anything for the American people, he was vested in the interests of foreign lobbyists & was going to give away not only American jobs & tax dollars to over-seas companies, though, he was going to do military contract business with a non-American company for the first time in our country's history...
This contract was cancelled by the Pentagon in the face of an oncoming scandal, to be re-evaluated at a later date… go figure, McCain proposed something so fucked up it had to be cancelled all together, yet, not only that, though, he tried to say that he had done something good in the process. This story was local & had a direct concern to friends & family... it might have only been a brief moment that McCain commented on the issue, though, that brief moment was a horrendous lie of monumental proportions.
Here's a link of dated comments & responses from my governor, Patty Murray, on the tanker bid, dating back to 2001... http://murray.senate.gov/tankers/tankers_news.cfm

& A link about McCain's advisors having lobbied on the side of the EADS side of the deal: http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/03/11/business/lobby.php
McCain lied about this, he is corrupt to the pit of his terrible soul & the man doesn't give a flying fuck about the American people, most especially the working class in this country."

Well, I agree with all of the above, and then there's Bill Ayers. I think it should be pointed out that McCain was part of the most concentrated program of terror bombing in history. He willingly and knowingly bombed civilian targets. Despite the fact that the US dropped more bombs on North Vietnam than were dropped on all of Europe in World War Two, McCain has said that "we" could have "won" the war if only "we" had been allowed to make full use of "our" airpower. Bill Ayer's was an angry young rich kid, who did some dumb shit. John McCain was a smug rich kid who committed war crimes. Bill Ayers is a nice old gent. John McCain should still be in prison.
Hero my ass.
Did we ever think McCain was anything but a lying piece of crap?
Merde alors. Les Enfants de la Patrie ain't what they used to be.
Fuck these killers. Le merde gens.
