What is MMFA's beef with Morning Joe?  They had Gibbs on there to say exactly what MMFA is complaining was not mentioned - "I can't imagine what Cindy McCain's reaction must have been when John McCain walked down to the Senate floor and also voted against funding the troops in Iraq."

I think the issue is the everyday reporting "Reports"

However, none of their reports noted that Sen. John McCain himself voted against legislation to fund the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq

I guess that this means that Michelle Obama can now question as to how and why Cindy McCain didn't serve jail time for stealing narcotics from her own medical foundation to serve her own addiction and all. Also, her family ties to Keating. How much money she would get back with her husband's tax cuts.

Yes, but Michelle has too much class , unlike Cindy.

Well, that's true. The way that I see it, Michelle is another great story. She didn't come from some high society money. She made good on her own, and through her intelligence. Cindy McCain has been a coddled woman her entire life, and the McCain's don't know what it is like having to, you know, work for a living, or make it on their own.

Cindy is the perfect example of what America used to be and no longer needs.  We are moving on. Hopefully to better days without the likes of Cindy McCain.

Yes, but Michelle has too much class , unlike Cindy.

There are toothless people in trailer parks all across America who have more class than Cindy Lou.

a lot of people are really getting turned off by this stuff.  she's trying to imply that obama would have left the troops without food or ammunition.   no congressperson on either side would do that.   these are procedural votes.  in the end, the troops get the funding they need. 

Also, when did her son go to Iraq? recently? So he wasn't there when the vote took place.

not sure if he was or wasn't, but here's mccain earlier this year saying "we never really talk about our sons" and their military service.  looks like that didn't last.

Just a few of the bills supporting troops that McCain has voted against: 

I have a message for Cindy McCain. Cindy, your husband did not vote for the following war funding bills over the past year:

6/26/08 HR 2642 Iraq and Afghanistan War Finding/GI Bill
5/22/08 S Amdt 4814 Funding for Operations in Iraq and Afghanistan
5/22/08 S Amdt Finding for Operations in Iraq and Afghanistan with Provisions Regarding Conduct and Congressional Oversight
3/14/08 S Con Res 70 Concurrent Budget Resolution
1/22/08 HR 4986 Defense Authorizations Bill
11/16/08 HR 4156 Supplemental Appropriations for the Department of Defense and Timeline for Withdrawal
11/16/08 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for the Department of Defense
10/1/07 National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008

As recently as June of this year, McCain voted against Sen. Jim Webb (D) VA, new GI Bill because it was "too generous". This from man who's birth was paid for by the gov't, who's education was paid for by the gov't, who's children's births were paid for by the gov't, and who's ongoing medical problems are paid for by whom, yes, the gov't. But it's "too generous" to help pay for the education of our nation's soldiers, who are risking their lives for an empty war.

With all of the media's focus on whether Obama voted to defund the troops, (HE DID NOT), why aren't they screaming about the insults directed towards those drafted into the military during the sixties and seventies by Mrs. McCain?

Why is it fair to honor officers who flew missions over North Vietnam but to insult those draftees who fought and died in the jungles and highlands of South Vietnam?

Mrs. McCain you are a disgrace. You should hang your head in shame.

Why is it that we should honor the sacrifice, reputation and patriotism of your son as you demean the sacrifice of more than 2,500,000 Americans who've served in Vietnam?

If Obama's NO vote on that bill "sent cold chills" down her spine, she must have gone into a catatonic state when McCain did the same thing a few weeks later. What this campaign is hoping is that the media is so entertainment oriented, they think that only one side of the story will be discovered or discussed. That worked before the internet, blogs, fact checking, etc. Another false story unearthed.
