Great ad for John McCain

Posted by: Sister Toldjah on November 1, 2008 at 8:28 am

Well, it’s not actually an ad, but it’s a video an Iraq war vet made on his behalf which has a very powerful message. Click below to watch:

The economy has become the focal point in the final weeks of the campaign, but this soldier reminds us that we have other pressing issues that need to be addressed, issues Barack Obama is ill-suited to handle.

God bless our veterans.

    I saw this a few months ago when it first it YouTube. Very moving. I’ve just followed the link and am stunned to see it has over 12,000,000 viewings. Twelve Million! @-)

    Let’s hope those 12 million take this vet’s message with them on election day.

    It’s a wonderful video, and as Anthony says, very moving. This war vet knows the cost of freedom and expresses it powerfully.

    Related: last Sunday at church, our senior pastor spoke briefly on politics. No endorsement, of course, but he said the three things you should look for in a candidate, in order of importance, were (1) character, (2) loyalty, (3) competence.

    So today the WSJ writes possibly its final editorial on the McCain campaign: McCain’s Honor:

    If the 2008 election were solely about character and experience, Mr. McCain would be winning in a walk. Few Presidential nominees have been better known or more admired. A McCain Presidency would have its surprises, but they would not be from personal vice or political scandal. His courage has been tested far more than most — both in a personal sense in Vietnam, and in a political sense during the Iraq war.
    ….
    If Mr. McCain does lose, a President Obama would also now inherit a far more stable and pro-American Iraq thanks to the Republican’s efforts and no thanks to Mr. Obama’s antiwar opportunism. In a further irony if he loses, Mr. McCain would return to the Senate and do his utmost to support a President Obama’s campaign in Afghanistan or against Iran. That favor would not be returned if Mr. McCain wins. This too is a sign of the Arizonan’s honorable character.

    I haven’t always agreed with McCain, but one thing is certain: for him, Country First is a credo, not just a campaign slogan. **==

    It is really good, not sure I agree but it’s a good video and very moving. Probably the best McCain video I have seen this election. The way away is a little dramatic to “proud to be an American”. They kinda steel a page out of the liberal illuminati book pulling on the heart strings. I just wonder why McCain hasn’t pushed this video more.
