Glenn Beck talked about the part of McCain's speech that bothered me last night. My initial reaction when McCain became the presumptive nominee was that it might be better to lose the election to Obama than have a liberal dressed in Republican clothes in the oval office. Sarah Palin has definitely changed my outlook on the ticket, and I have gained respect for McCain, but I think he is dead wrong on the job training ideas he threw out last night:
GLENN: I think John McCain actually talked me back out of voting for him last night. All he needed to do is after the little film about him is just to say, good night, everybody, here's Sarah Palin again. That's all he needed to do. I first of all I just, it was the most rambling, boring. Was I the only one that was drifting? I was like, whew, honey, is there a poopy diaper I can change? Is there anything I can do? I mean, I was really it took everything in me to be able to concentrate.
....No, seriously was I the only one that felt about halfway through, what the hell is he even talking about! What is that play the clip here of where he was talking about, "Hey, and by the way, we're going to make up for lost wages for you." This is a clip from last night.
SENATOR McCAIN: Workers who have lost a job that won't come back find a new one that won't go away. GLENN: Stop for a second, please. I just would like to know what kind of program is that? How is the I would like somebody to explain this program to me. It sounds great. Can somebody explain this program to me? What, are we going to the federal government is it's called monstersjob.com. Monsterjob.com. There it is. It's called the Internet. Al Gore invented it. Get on the Internet and find a job that pays better. What are you even talking about? Now, he's talking about an industry, job where the factories have shut down and everything else. Well, okay. So you're going to trust the government to retrain you and tell you the future? "Oh, this is where our future jobs are going." Really? "Yeah, and we'll retrain you." Oh, thanks again. Why don't you just punch me in the face.
Tell me what that job training system is. Is that another government agency? Is that something that we already have? Stu, can you help me? Do we already have that in place? STU: We should if we done. GLENN: I wish we did, darn it. You know what, this isn't even the thing that really pissed me off last night.
