McCain and right wing religious nut, Sarah Palin, call themselves "mavericks" on TV and public speaking events. However, I'd suggest that every single time we read and see the word "maverick" that we think of the word "liar".
John McCain says he is a maverick. Yet he voted with Bush 90% of the time. What is so "mavericky" about that? Isn't that supporting the status quo?
Sarah Palin says she is a maverick. However, she supported the "bridge to nowhere" before she was against it. Palin left the city she was mayor of in deep debt. Besides, why isn't more information coming out about Palin? Where are her tax returns? Do you remember how Fox News attacked Hillary Clinton about her tax returns (link)? How does Palin charge her state for flying her family around Alaska, to the NCAA tournament games, etc., etc., etc. Palin lied about selling the state jet on Ebay. She lied about firing her chef. How many other lies are there? It looks to me like there are some dirty little secrets in Alaska that are rapidly being covered up by the McCain operatives. I wish that some journalists would do their job and get to the truth.
McCain has voted against the minimum wage (19 times). He supports health insurance paying for "male enhancement medication" but not for birth control pills. McCain is against equal pay for women. McCain wants to tax your health insurance benefits. McCain continues to vote against issues important to women.
Face it. McCain and Palin are working to undo all the advancements women have made since the 50's. If you want to keep abortion safe and available, you won't vote for McCain. No one is pro-abortion. However, it is important that American women continue to have the right to determine what happens to their own bodies. To protect that right and to get us out of Iraq, we must vote for Obama.
