Official Dirt on McCain Thread

[Rob]

I realize that we have an entire forum for "other candidates" but given the importance and pertinence of knocking McCain down, I think it makes sense to temporary have a thread here. Please post whatever dirt you can find on McCain so that this thread becomes a "database" if you will of reasons people should scream in horror when they hear the name McCain. I'll start.

Some very nice ads:

I'm particularly fond of the story of how he met his present wife..... leaving his crippled first wife after an affair, securing daddy's money and political future......

My mother remembers the Keating Five but didn't realize McCain was one of them. If this holds significant negative connotation for people that remember the incident, this definitely needs to be emphasized more!

With your long history of liberalism, why do you seek the Republican Party nomination?

McCain introduced bill leading to the relocation and deaths of thousands of Native Americans

(Public Law 93-531 as amended in 1996 (Partition), 1999 (Settlement), 2001 (Enforcement of Resettlement) and 2005 (Expansion of Resettlement) by bills introduced by Senator McCain - has led to the United Nations Special Rapporteur, Hon Abdeltalif Amor's condemnation of human rights violations inside the US, over the stripping of rights and forced resettlement of these gentle and deeply spiritual band of Dineh-Navajo Indians from Arizona, swept off of lands they'd owned since 1500 A.D. so that Peabody Western Coal could mine the Coal from beneath their farmlands and tap their wells to slurry pipe it to a power station in Nevada).

ACSA study reveals that after assembling a team of "pro-Peabody Western Coal" Indians and obtaining a false "Hopi-Navajo" Tribal Counsel designation by the Bureau of Indian Affairs for these paid Tribal representatives, in the period 1974-1996, Senator McCain was able to get large bands of the Dineh-Navajo relocated off their lands, so that Peabody Western could mine the coal under their farms at nominal expense. Common Cause has suggested McCain was indirectly compensated by street name cash contributions to his Federal Election Fund during three Presidential runs, and through family business with Las Vegas Casinos who benefited from the coal driven power he supplied.​

The ACSA challenges Senator McCain on his legislative history of Human Rights Violations: "a Skeleton in his closet: UNFIT to hold public office!"

http://acsa2000.net/cain2004.org/Dine-Navajo-PressRelease.htm

The Digg for this is here:

http://www.digg.com/politics/McCain_Sponsored_S_1003_Removal_of_Navajo_Lands_Genocide

"I believe that the forced relocation of Navajo and Hopi people that followed from the passage in 1974 of Public Law 93-531 is a major violation of these people's human rights. Indeed this forced relocation of over 12,000 Native Americans is one of the worst cases of involuntary community resettlement that I have studied throughout the world..."

Hey aravoth, think you could do us the honors of making a suitable video about Senator McCain?

I realize your videos are usually uplifting, or at least pro-Paul, but it might be a good time to "expand your horizons."

And by the way, you're one of the biggest reasons I'm part of this movement. Thank you.

Haha....ahh that's great. I know one of you big fans, he'll be pretty darn excited to know that I helped get you some good info. I especially like the thematic idea of the not so Straight Talk Express theme. Good luck.



Come everybody keep on searching; we're going to get a new aravoth video out of this@
