There's no question John McCain is getting a free ride from the mainstream press. But with the power of YouTube and the blogosphere, we can provide an accurate portrayal of the so-called Maverick. We can put the brakes on his free ride!
Since we first released The Real McCain a year ago, our REAL McCain series has garnered close to 2 million views, with over 13,000 comments and tens of thousands more in petition signatures! Clearly, John McCain's record is something the public wants to discuss, and yet the corporate media is doing NOTHING to present the truth. We feel obliged to continue countering the mainstream media's love of McCain. And so we thought it was high time for a sequel: The Real McCain 2.
We're doing everything to get the facts out there about McCain. Join us in making a concerted effort to tell the story that corporate media refuses to tell. E-mail this video to all of your friends and family members, news blogs and other local media outlets. And don't forget to Digg it!
According to Cliff Schecter, author of The Real McCain: Why Conservatives Don't Trust Him And Why Independents Shouldn't: "It is dangerous for a democracy when a presidential candidate can lie with impunity, change positions on a whim, and physically and verbally threaten others and virtually none of it is reported by a besotted media eagerly awaiting the next moment when he might slap their backs in friendship."
The mainstream press may not do their job, but we can surely do ours. It is crucial that we alert the public to the REAL McCain, and it is crucial we act now, before it's too late.


You don't need an Uzi to hunt deer
Man, he got a little tripped up. HAHAH But guess what?! I'm still voting for him. :)
Ha Ha !! We right wing McCain lackeys are collecting the IP addresses of you posters !!
I give, is Mars habitable..............
Obama, McCain -take your pick
and say 'hello'
to the new manager of mall America
stocked and owned by Red China.
-Cheers!
You have got to get it so we can post these on ireport.com. That website get at least 1 million or more hits a day.
Obama will lose!!!
He is a liberals liberal!!
Obama has received "100" ratings from Americans for Democratic Action, Planned Parenthood, the AFL-CIO, the American Federation of Government Workers, Citizens for Tax Justice (i.e., for raising taxes on the "rich"), Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, the National Education Association, and the National Organization for Women. He has received "F" grades from the National Taxpayers Union, the National Rifle Association, and U.S. English, a 13 rating from Citizens Against Government Waste, 7 ratings from the Club for Growth, the American Conservative Union, and the Eagle Forum, and zero ratings from the Family Research Council, the National Right to Life Committee, and Americans for Tax Reform.
When will the Democrats wake up and stop sending socialist liberals to their execution, like Obama!! not to mention Gore, Kerry, McGovern, Dukakis, etc, etc..
Clinton made it because of Perot.
McCain will be the President in the end.
What kind of judgement could McCain have when he picks his VP with so much baggage of her own?? Trooper-Gate, pregnant daughter, flip flopper and beauty queen all looks very unpresidentual to me. Face it, Palin would be closer than a heartbeat from the job with McCain being the oldest person ever as president. She has been reported to be "Limbaugh friendly" that is enough for me.
If you shined the same light on Obama you would get the same thing. These guys are life time polititian and thus suspect. Follow the money, check the motive: we got problems either way.
I love this country though, the vote will be tough.
Were what you wrote true - it would be good. Having seen this man take a swing at a USAF crewmember, while that service man was doing his assigned duties - John McCain's anger needs to be put in check. Scare me - certainly, anyone with their hand that close to the ability to deploy a nuke with that much unchecked anger should scare everybody.
"John McCain scares the Democrats and Republicans!
The politicians in Washington both Democrat and Republican are scared to death of John because they know he will not be a big spender and that all their earmarks and special interest money will be gone!!
I loved John McCain in the late nineties to about 2005. He was a true Maverick. He is no longer on my buddy list. All I can say is that I hope intelligence outweighs the ignorance in America in this election. Also in the same retrospec I pray Hope outweighs fear. Go Obama!
It's called:
"Being hell-bent on winning in Iraq
so as to avoid another Cambodia
a la the Viet-Nam cut and run pull-out."
Is that bad? Are we at war?
Then where's the draft?
So then, what this video proves is that McCain double-talks....just like Barack, Hillary, Bill, John Kerry, and every politician in Washington D.C., now tell us something we don't know!
President of the America is a unique job...No one could ever claim they are truly experienced,unless they happened to be president before,very unlikely.
All there is on anti Obama stuff is school yard level name calling and a lot of low class photoshopped pics.
But hey,look up McCains voting record,he is almost always against the military,and most vets groups rate him very poorly. So he isnt even good at the thing he is supposed to have in the bag.
There is nothing wrong with this video...no lies,no silly pics,just FACTS,ones that need to be known.
Fabulous, YouTube! But don't be surprised if the Republican Goon Squad is going to try to shut you up and close you down! They'll be at your door with $$$ so fast you'll be flying a little note that says "awaiting moderation" to any video that unmasks McCain for the incompetent and unfit for office that he is. Damn straight we can't make the White House John's house number eight!
Obama told us experience is important in his recent interview when he claimed Clarence Thomas didn't have enough experience for the Supreme Court.
Using Mr. Obama's own litmus test, he doesn't have enough experience to be POUS. If he thinks he does, then he's a hypocrite or he thinks too highly of himself. I'd guess in this case, both labels apply.
If he truly were a man of ideas and hope, he wouldn't have voted "present" over 100 times on bills his opinion was needed on at the job he was elected for.
You judge a man on his performance. All we know is that Obama believes in a woman's choice to kill her baby. He doesn't think the other half of the making of that baby should have any choice.
He's fooling all of those who think he's the right candidate. Fooling people may be his only talent... but then he needs fools to perform his act flawlessly.
John McCain is a great man!! Both progressives and Conservatives are in agreement he has integrity and honor. So to read the bashing is gross!!
The war may have been wrong blah blah blah.... yes we ALL want it to end. But it is DONE, right or wrong we are there, and McCain is right we cannot cut and run.
I love it the ultra Left and the ultra right hate McCain. Now for certain I know he is the man for the job.
John McCain scares the Democrats and Republicans!
The politicians in Washington both Democrat and Republican are scared to death of John because they know he will not be a big spender and that all their earmarks and special interest money will be gone!!
McCain 2008!
For about an hour last week there was story about McCain's foriegn policy advisor being involved in an oil deal for profit in Georgia. It stated that he went with McCain on his several visits and profited $750,000 from these deals. All of a sudden it was gone, nothing on any news program. Hard to figure in an election year that a possible scandal like this gathers no press and was removed from AOL. Hmmmmmm!!
Youtube 'says' the video is no longer available!!?
What I'm waiting for is a commercial that shows McCain sitting in the front seat of the car with the "Foster Farms Chickens"!
Whew, this is scary stuff. How could anyone feel safe putting their life and the lives of their children in the hands of this misguided soul. Wasn't 8 years enough with the last one? How much blood, sweat and tears do Americans have to give keeping this crew in power before they finally wise up? .
Lowest IQ of any any nominee - He wasn't a leader in the military, and he isn't a leader now! A flip-flopping hypocrit adulterer!
Plus, the "corperate media" has more than covered McCain's flip flops; they have overcovered it. (except for Fox News of course)
I just watched the 2nd McCain video, and i gotta say...stop it. I am a moderate who usually lines up with the left, but sites like this made liberals look bad. Show that we have more class than the bastard GOP or everyone will be too jaded to care and vote mindlessly...aka fo McCain. In short, you're hurting your own cause.
Something the politically correct won't address: John McCain is just too damned old. Reagan lost his marbles before he left office and McCain is even older! A second childhood should not involve nukes. www.cafepress.com
.....its time to pull back the curtain, much like the Wizard of Oz. We've been lied to, decieved and spend more on armored vehicles, than on health care for every American. We have turned into a helpless giants for other countries in need.
Wahrheit: "drive by media"??? Gosh, wonder who you are a tool for? Tool.
McCain's Mansions - The Real Elitist was great. Thanks for focusing on issues and not scandals
I think we should just elect some homeless person. After all both candidates are completely insane.
I find that this website is almost as bad as the drive by media. Open your eyes people and see whao and what the Democratic Party is in the form of the Socialist candidate, Barack Obama.
Why don't someone just do a "FEAR FACTOR" show. Think about it. Do one on how our economy is pumped by from FOX NEWS and how in the end the joke is on the scared consuming American people. A capitalist society will never ever reach its true potential and separation between people of this country will continue to exists.
The first paragraph lost all credibility for this article.
great site. keep fighting the bs
McCain goes back and fourth on his word. And he's getting a complete free-ride from FOX. Fox keeps attacking Obama, comparing him to HITLER!!!!
McCain wants to lower taxes for big corporate industry and put mom and pop shops out of business. The man is a war profiter. If you don't like either candidate DON'T VOTE.
http://johnmccainforum.com
Tom Ridge as a VP candidate ?? Ok so now the real Mccain shows up , lets make one of dismantlers of the constitution under Bush a VP , yeah, thats a good idea .
McCain loves the homeless, thats why he supports making so many of them in Az, (highest foreclosure rate in the U.S ). He loves the jobless, thats why he does nothing to create jobs and everything to keep well paying jobs out of the state. He loves insurance companies and isnt for "health care". McCain has not shown he has what it takes for anyone, but himself .
If that's the case Don, I would suggest voting for Bob Barr, more than anything because he is from a completely different political party. Many of the young voters who are democrats would probably agree completely with social issues involving the Libertarian party, and many republican youths would agree with the Libertarian party's economic and governmental policies.
If you want to respond to this post please do so in the form of an email, I won't be returning to this site. My email is phishfi@gmail.com or nfinn@bgsu.edu
Obama is just as bad. I am sick of having to choose the less of 2 evils every 4 years. I hope that Ron Paul runs. Call it a wasted vote if you want to, but when I have my turn to speak (vote), you can bet I will not ignore these grave violations of our Constitution from the Left and the Right.

But McCain a straight talker? He one of the people saying Iraq would be an easy victory. Now he says anyone who thought that was misleading the American people. Just because you coined a phrase does not make it true.
A fiscal hawk? That fine if it were true, but how can you give hundreds of billions to Iraq and be a fiscal hawk? As far as earmarks go, those are the people's representatives doing their job. Giving the taxpayers their money back.

John is the one will do the right thing and will be the least in the pockets of the special interest… that I 100% McCain!! He is a straight talker! War hero! He is a fiscal hawk!! He hates earmarks! He fights the pharmaceutical companies; he stood by Iraq when it was unpopular. He is kind of cranky and no push over. I like that!! Obama is a talker boy. But, no real substance, just blah blah blah. The few things he has said equal a BIGGER government and more deficit spending!!
So I just want to know, why McCain thinks its ok to spend nearly $1 TRILLION to maintain an unconstitutional global empire? Do you think that just because we borrow that money from China that it will not effect the value of the US Dollar? Or that we'll continue to burn much needed oil in our tanks and ships as we go around policing the world? Or, that worst of all, that we will continue to be more vulnerable then ever before in our history?

Matt,
Hush... As we've said McCain graduated 5th from last in his Naval class. Got shot down, signed an enemy confession and was the largest benefactor of the Keating 5.
That's why Newt and so many other Reps say he's a back stabber and throws his friends under the bus to cut-n-run when he gets in trouble.
Go to your room.
Give them hell John!! The debt building, earmark cowards are scared to death of Mr. McCain. Look out special interest! I love seeing all the Hollywood elite, only able to donate $2300 each, instead of the $100,000's!! The lobbyist is Washington know that John is going to be hard to push over on spending, why do you think the Washington establishment both Democrat and Republican alike don't like John McCain. It is all about Money!! God Bless John McCain.
Get the truest of all John McCain gear: McCainIsAHater.com
McCain was wrong for Arizona and is wrong for the country . McCain doesnt mind the homeless he's got a state full of them , and if they're mentally ill enough, they get a free bus ticket to neighboring states . Wal mart according to Az newspaper is the second largest employer in the state of Az. , wages have not increased in over thirty years , and the illegal's have hurt the state so bad . Mccain could run a cruise ship of retired folks , but he cant run a country .
Good boy Kevin, I'll send ya a pic of me under the mission accomplished banner !
Kevin, you can't even spell unfortunately. Please go read a book or make a conscious effort to try to aid you with your overwhelming battle with ignorance.
OK, McCain might not be the best of what we are looking for in a President, HOWEVER, it's either him or Obama. I don't know about you...but between these two guys.. McCain has my vote, unfortunatley!
