Like Bush, McCain Lies To The American People

By Big Tent Democrat

Via Josh Marshall, the John McCain campaign admits he will lie to the American People as the candidate and if he becomes President:

McCain seems to have made a choice that many politicians succumb to but that he had always promised to avoid — he appears ready to do whatever it takes to win, even it if soils his reputation. . . . McCain spokesman Brian Rogers said . . . "We recognize it’s not going to be 2000 again . . . But he lost then. We’re running a campaign to win. And we’re not too concerned about what the media filter tries to say about it.”

George Bush won in 2000 by lying and continued lying to the American People as President. John McCain promises more of the same - the same Bush lies to the American People we have seen for 8 years. As Barack Obama says, it is time to say "enough!" Enough of the Bush policies and the Bush lies. Even if they now come from John McCain.
