By Michael Castellano It has long been believed by Republican pundits that Osama bin Laden's video tape in October of 2004 helped George Bush defeat Senator John Kerry. John McCain is apparently also a true believer in the doctrine that when the masses vote their fears, they vote Republican.
McCain vehemently denied that he was suggesting that the election of Barrack Obama as president would be welcomed by terrorists. "I think they take a look at Obama's last name, which rhymes with 'Osama', and his middle name, which he shares with Saddam Hussein, and think 'This guy's one of us, we can get away with anything.' Now I believe they are wrong, but the perception is there nonetheless." Onward Christian Soldiers
McCain closes each of his church speeches with a rousing 50 member choir rendition of "Onward Christian Soldiers," which he personally leads.
Afterwards, patriotic movies are shown outside in a large portable tent, which include "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon," "Drums Along the Mohawk," "Rogers Rangers," "The Green Berets," and "Gunga Din." When he was asked why "Gunga Din," a movie about the British army slaughering rebellious nationalists in India, was being included McCain said, "I just love the part where Sam Jaffe (he was playing the loyal native water boy) gets up and blows the buggle and saves his comrads. Amazing what a little shoe polish can do."
When questioned as to what else he would do to prevent another terror attack, McCain offered, "I believe the best defense is an aggressive offense. Get them before they get us. When elected I will pursue a get tough policy and declare open war against terrorists and terrorist nations like Iran, Cuba, and France. We will prevail, even if it takes a hundred years."
