MCCAIN: For or Against Keeping Cars In Tune and Tires Properly Inflated?

Introduce the subject:

Someone asked OBAMA what can they do as an individual and he told them how
important it is to keep tires inflated car tuned properly etc. Experts believe
this could reduce 3-4% of fuel we use. This is somethjing that woiuld help NOW
and wold have a bigger impact that the LONG-TERM benefits of increased offshore drilling.

But hold on to your hat because MCCAIN has flipped on the tire inflatting
issue:

MCCAIN Supports the Troops

But do the troops support MCCAIN? The lying anti-obama ads try to make OBAMA out as a person that does not care about the troops but what is the truth?

McCain and Phil Grahm (Mental Receesion)

Former senator Phil Gramm says the nation is in a "mental recession," not an actual one

TMP captures the issue with this snipet:


The problem is MCCAIN has been name dropping GRAHM all year as his economics mentor.
Now, how can he say he does not speak for MCCAIN? Is there any reason to think
he is flipping on the status of GRAHM?

Responsively Leave Iraq

Sept 12th, 2007, Sen. OBAMA calls for immediate withdrawal from Iraq that could be
completed by March.
Sense then he has "refined" the withdrawal as "responsible removal" that is as a rate
of 1 to 2 combat brigades per month which may take as long as 16 months.
Is this a flip-flop? HAs he jumped to the MCCAIN position as the MCCAIN comments July 3rd claim?

No. The essential difference is that OBAMA as commander in chief will set the mission to leave while MCCAIN's mission to "commanders on the ground" is to win the war no matter how long it takes.
