McCain's Vetting Crew Strikes Out. Again.
Oh for crying out loud. This is a campaign for the top office in the country and you're running behind. Don't you think it's worth having someone just run the occasional spell check?
Did you notice it? Marc Ambinder did, about 12 seconds in:

EVERBODY? Yeah, that's inspiring leadership.



The rePUBIC party is darksided, evil and demonic.
The right wing ideology has drifted toward satanistic tactics due to lust for power.
DEFEAT AND CONTAIN REPUBLICAN TRAITORS!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3DAk17pzxI here is proof.
The New York Post is not a "leading newspaper".
I think McPalin's campaign is full of the best and brightest from Reagents, Liberty, and Oral Roberts Universities.
Now that is scary...

along with the Washington Post and some Dallas newspaper,
persona non grata on Obama's aeroplane after endorsing WcCain.
So, do we get a glimpse of how an Obama administration would be? If you don't support him you are against him and he will take care of you?
Don't forget about Bob Jones!
Well, yeah, at least if you're going to put it on TV, you'd think. Wonder what else they get wrong. Wonder if they even bother to check facts, ever, or just spew the diarrhea around. Makes you wonder if they misplace stuff like commas in their numerical values.
Hypothetcial example: Like we'll give everyone a health care tax credit of $5,000. (Post election correction: Sorry for any mistakes, but that should have been $50.00.)
"If the US government enforced its banking laws like it did its park regulations, we wouldn't be
in this damn park in the first place." OCCUPY.!!
That looks more like a member of the military... Did Joe serve?
Make no motto of love that worships war
Joe serves tubing the base for Johnny.
White collar?

I don't think it was meant to be Joe at all. If it was then they really did miss the mark.

Those damned elitists and their spellin' and learnin' 'n stuff.
"To me, truth is not some vague, foggy notion. Truth is real. And,
at the same time, unreal. Fiction and fact and everything in between,
plus some things I can't remember, all rolled into one big "thing."
This is truth, to me. "
-Jack Handy
The hair on top of the head is not Joe's doo or even similar to Joe's doo. Methinks they were tossing the "troops" into the air, not unlike they've been doing for the past five years.

Well, you've got to figure that it's only the hardcore fuckwits and felons who are still with McCain, and neither party cares about spelling...
GoshGollyGee Palin's team is just as bad, being pranked by a Canadian radio duo. If only her staff had some of the cash from her wardrobe budget, they could have invested in the latest supersecret identity technology: caller ID.
That was funny!

"I'm Sarah Palin, and I approve this spelling."
Good one.

I second that.

I third it.
Presumably to keep her on Rev. Muthee's good side.

... We all know that spelling is not part of that "PRESIDENTIAL TEST" like religion is, NO?

Starve the WAR Beast...
... Feed Americans.
Very clever Dr. Seuss style telling of the WcCain and STalin tale.

That was brilliant. Thanks!
I could never be a detective! I missed the whole fucking point! Damn it! Everbody! Jesus, Mark! Are you wearing your friggin' glasses?
I am now. "EVER-BODY"...

Please disregard all of the previous comments by thepoetryman except for the on where I ridicule myself! I was looking at the visual on the picture and completely missed the letters. For a man who loves words it sure as hell took me long enough!

Attack Add Fail.
Everbody: Because everybody with an I.Q. over 100 who makes less than $250,000 a year is voting for Obama.
The sheer idiocy of the Republican base these days is astonishing. What effing morons.
The devil is in the details.
The desperation of the McCain campaign never ceases to amaze me. I don't understand how they can get away with such bold face lies.
3 days to go. Help your friends make sure to vote!
Actually, it was initially spelled correctly, but edited after Sarah Palin insisted that there was no "y".
Everyone is equally entitled to the pursuit of happiness. Wasn't that once self evident?
Ha!
Make no motto of love that worships war
Hi everbody, hows ya'lls doin?
Don't you know? McCain is just speaking to his base.
You people are way to critical. Maybe they were referring to the band Everbody.
I'm being told there is no band called Everbody.
That's just embarrassing.
is intended to be a factual statement
I think you're thinking of Everclear.
BTW, anybody else wince a little bit whenever they hear 'Just As You Suspected' as a political tagline?
'Obama: All Your Paranoid Fantasies Laid Bare'
sheesh...
my wife and i saw a homemade sign today
a vote for McCain/Palin is a vote for Indepedence!
i think misspellings are obligatory in this campaign...or maybe it's campain
You've got to hand it to The "Mavrick" and his band of clowns. If nothing else, they're good for a laugh.

Anyone else remember "Johm McCain"?
* There are two types of Republicans: millionaires and suckers.
"Mugsy's Rap Sheet": Recording history for those who seek to rewrite it.
Sorry, but I don't think this is a case of Fox News-like sloppiness. I think it's an intentional misquoting of Obama, with the - and I hate to use this term - "ebonics" version of the word "everybody." Barack's a black man, dontchaknow, so he says things like "everbody" and "lemme ax you a question." It's racist and it's on purpose, like everything else Rove does during a campaign.
It's folksy.
Divine Right of Kings (1600's); Divine Right of Corporations (2011)
I think everbody should know that McCain is doing very poorly with the American people. And his spellcheckers suck!
Morans...
By far, the funniest thing that I have seen today. Is it wrong that I laugh derisively at any McCain/Palin faux pas?
Whenever I hear one of these right wing imbeciles use the old "socialism" bullshit, I tell them to their face that they are dumber than 20 lbs of dog shit!
Then I explain just exactly how big a dumbass they are that they haven't yet noticed that the biggest socialist, welfare queens on the planet, are the American rich - REPUBLICAN'S!
Rush Limbaugh is what a smart person thinks a stupid bigot sounds like.
Many of these misspellings/mispronunciations may be simple politics.
The late Molly Ivins (does anyone else miss her? especially given the laughable candidates we've been slung??) wrote that good English often was bad politics, and that candidates play to the ill-educated masses by mispronouncing and by the selective usage of bad grammar. Of course, she wrote it far better than I do, and I refuse to quote her on this, so that you all will GO READ HER BOOKS!
Texas isn't the only place on earth this political philosophy works. Thus "nucular" might be spoken while the teleprompter offers up phonetic cues for correct pronunciation.
In your mockery of the McCain campaign for not catching "everbody," you refer to "teh gay" twice. I've suggested before that you need a proofreader and finally decided that your attitude was that the message was all important and little things like correct and comprehensible use of the language were unimportant. I even decided you were, to a degree at least, right. But now . . .
Urban dictionary:
1. teh
2. teh
1. teh gay
Derived from the common mispelling of 'the'.
It's a common parlance on the internet and one used frequently on this site. I am, amazingly enough, a professional editor and know very well how to write using correct grammar. It was a stylistic choice that comports with the medium.
