Today we call it "Oppositional Defiant Disorder"
Posted by Jill | 9:29 PM
John McCain's anger management problems didn't start when he came home from Vietnam; they've always been there:
At age 2, McCain's tantrums were so intense that he'd hold his breath for a few minutes and pass out. His parents would dunk him in cold water to "cure" him, he wrote in his memoir, "Faith of My Fathers."


Behaviors that are symptomatic of ODD:
Frequent temper tantrums
Argumentativeness with adults
Refusal to comply with adult requests or rules
Deliberate annoyance of other people
Blaming others for mistakes or misbehavior
Acting touchy and easily annoyed
Anger and resentment
Spiteful or vindictive behavior
Aggressiveness toward peers
Difficulty maintaining friendships
Academic problems


Just think about it: Our next president, unless the media gets off its collective knees and Barack Obama stops talking about how successful the surge was and what an honorable man John McCain is, may very well be a hothead with a religious nutball as his Vice President.

Also, one of several reasons he made the reckless pick of Paiin as VP (besides kowtowing to the religious right) was reportedly that it flattered his image as a "maverick." He's no maverick, of course, but he really, truly believes he is. This is a man with a temper, incurious, reckless, with poor judgment, and dishonest even with himself.

John S. McCain has proven he loves our country enough to die for us!

From Obama’s book: Audacity of Hope: “I WILL STAND WITH THE MUSLIMS SHOULD THE POLITICAL WINDS SHIFT IN AN UGLY DIRECTION.”

ISN’T IT FUNNY THAT MIDDLE EASTERN MUSLIM COUNTRIES HAVE BEEN SENDING MILLIONS TO HELP ELECT A "CHRISTIAN"???

WWW.USAWAKEUP.ORG

WAKE UP AMERICANS.

"ABC NEWS" GETS THE FIRST GOVERNOR PALIN INTERVIEW! WHOOPEE!

I WISH SHE HAD TOLD ALL MAINSTREAM 'BIASED' MEDIA TO KISS OFF, AFTER THE WAY THEY WENT AFTER HER FAMILY; HOWEVER, SHE IS A STRONG AMERICAN AND WILL DO FINE.

Poor Obama --- he’s resorted to calling Sarah a LIAR. This is going to get good sooner than we think. Last week, he sent "30" lawyers to Alaska to vet Governor Palin! Why? The DNC and biased media never vetted their 'golden boy' --- if they had, Hillary would be the Democratic candidate.

GOVERNOR PALIN HAS ACTUALLY WORKED FOR THE PEOPLE (AS MAYOR AND AS GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF ALASKA) AND NOW, OBAMA IS RUNNING AROUND LIKE A CHICKEN WITH IT’S HEAD CUT OFF. WHY IS HE SO SCARED? HE’S COMING ACROSS LIKE A BLUNDERING IDIOT. GOVERNOR PALIN IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT --- JOHN McCAIN IS.

GOVENOR SARAH PALIN IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR AND OFFERS A CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN! IF, GOD FORBID, SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO SENATOR McCAIN, I KNOW GOVERNOR PALIN WILL CHOOSE A GOOD, STRONG VP TO HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

REGARDING THE “BRIDGE TO NOWHERE” ISSUE:

GOVERNOR PALIN DID NOT ASK FOR THE BRIDGE — NOR DID SHE ASK FOR THE MONEY! SINCE SHE HAS BEEN “GOVERNOR” OF ALASKA, SHE HAS NOT SUPPORTED THIS BRIDGE.

GOVERNORS AND STATE OFFICIALS “DON’T” ASK FOR FEDERAL MONEY (EARMARK MONEY OR PORK) — THAT’S DONE BY “SENATORS” AND “CONGRESSMEN”! WE NEED TO REPLACE THE DO-NOTHING DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS!

TOUCHE!

I’M VOTING FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN S. McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.

Jill, may I just say that I think you deserve a better caliber of troll.
