McCain and Palin are nut jobs (not that I have anytime for the others either - people should vote for Nadar)
McCain ' we will have more wars - we will have to have more wars'
Palin ' The war in Iraq is a task from God'
Interesting read. How do I know it's all true though?
Also, why is it dated 11 days from now, due to be published somewhere?
To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
Magazines are often post-dated. Their official date of publication may be X. But they often are available at least a week if not two in advance. It has been that way in publishing for 200 years.
That's why the 'Saturday-Sunday' Irish Times is available late on Friday night, while the November edition of Magill is often available in the last week of October, why the Irish Catholic is usually on news stands 3-4 days before the publication date, etc etc etc.
You will also notice how newspapers and magazines usually use US dating (eg, September 27th) rather than western dating (27th September) even in states where western dating is the norm in everything else.
There are a whole series of publication foibles, one of which is publishing a magazine ahead of the date on the issue.
TBG our own politicians are not a bit like this!

There's no real new information here, and much of it is public record (or directly from John McCain's memoirs...Obama isn't the only author running for president.) I think what is relatively new is the way it's presented, i.e. framed on all sides by GW Bush. McCain has long been supported by reporters who helped build this "maverick" myth, but now he's pissed them off--the fast jog to the hard right, the transformation of the Straight Talk Express to the No Talk Express, the selection of Palin. It's about time they came around.
