Which group is more ... focused: Bush-haters, or McCain-haters? :)

Posted on 03/22/2008 8:42:44 AM PDT by Cringing Negativism Network

Just saying:

Seems more and more, like there's not a whole lot of behavioral difference between those on one side of the aisle who see everything through the prism of hating Bush,...

And those on one side of the aisle who see everything through the prism of hating John McCain.

Please. Stop attacking the Republican.

“McCain is a Republican? Coulda fooled me. There’s not much daylight between McCain and the official Democrat party platform.”

You are correct. I’m backing you up.

....Well, which is it?....

It is not either or, but both.

Some may have solved the equation omitting the extreme right.

I prefer a safety fctor, a better margin. Thus the effort.

Thanks!

Check out the second pic in my profile, you may find it amusing.

By the way, if you don’t mind me asking... who is Craig, and what is a mango tree lawyer?

Apparently you haven’t been paying attention for the last two years.

Okay, show me the conservative bills that have been passed in the last two years. Or, even better, show me how those stalwart republicans trimmed the pork in the federal budget.

Or, forced the dems to compromise on a bill.

Go ahead, show me.

Unless and until we do that, all this chatter is just...chatter.

Oh, okay. Never mind then.

The congress is at impasse. Neither conservative or liberal bills get pased. That is until you allow a marxist to be elected by default.

“He won’t raise taxes and he does not deny the reality of Islamic Jihad and he won’t cut and run in Iraq.”

#1 - Yes he will.

#2 - Yes he does.

#3 - Yes he will.

“Sometimes you have to choose between merely “right-of-center””

I would if one of the three were exactly that. The choices are as follows.

Leftist(D-NY)
Leftist(D-IL)
Leftist(R-AZ)

None of us are even asking for a perfect candidate, as so commonly portrayed by the apologists. We just want someone to the right of Karl Marx.

“The recent poll here on Free Republic now gone showed 70% or so will support McCain if only to prevent a Marxist from gaining control of the government.”

That is dripping with irony.

As I noted to another poster:

In the Fall of 2006, when even Rumsfeld was opposed to the Surge, who kept insisting that we needed the Surge that has turned the Iraq War around?

Who stuck by that position even though he acknowledged that only 18% of Americans polled supported such a Surge?

Who said, "In war, there is no such thing as compromise, you either win or you lose"?

We are up against two candidates, Hillary and Obama, that have promised to lose the war and you are putting up the argument that McCain is not "to the right of Karl Marx"?

War is a serious matter. Deal with it in a serious manner.

“Check out the second pic in my profile, you may find it amusing.”

Thank you for those pics. I enjoyed them.

“By the way, if you don’t mind me asking... who is Craig, and what is a mango tree lawyer?”

That is Greg Craig. He is the crook, ambulance chaser, and friend of the Clintons who had Elian Gonzalez sent back to Cuba.

In Panama, a mango tree lawyer is some crook (lawyer) who sets up his office under a mango tree near government offices and reels in his unsuspecting clients telling them he can do something for them.

It is a West Indian expression.

Right now, mango tree lawyer Craig is defending a past crooked Panamanian president, Ernesto Pérez Balladares, to try and get his U.S. visa back. One of the reasons he lost his visa (probably one of many reasons), he was exporting illegal Chinese to the U.S. He denies of it course.

Mango tree crooked Greg Craig is also defending the head of the Panamanian assembly, Pedro Miguel Gonzalez, who murdered (shot) a U.S. Soldier, Sgt. Zak Hernández, and seriously wounding another, Sgt. Ronald T. Marshall. This took place in Panama in 1992.

Gonzelez was convicted of murder in absentia in a U.S. court. Panama will not give him up because he is a cousin to the present president. The big question is where is this crook going to steal about $2,000,000 to pay crooked Craig?

There you have the story. I hope I did not bore you.

I’m not clear on how McCain wanting a vaguely new strategy makes him not a Marxist. At the time it seemed like he was turning against the war because it was the popular thing to do.

Didn't Bush just sign a devastating energy bill passed by this "impassed" Congress?

And there is more to the story.

Should Hillary become president, she will issue a new U.S. visa to Ernesto Pérez Balladares and pardon Pedro Miguel Gonzalez because Craig and the Clintons are close buds. Trust me on this one.

More than “also,” Mango tree lawyer Greg Craig will be giving the Clintons, should they become co-presidents, their cut which is included in that big fat fee.

Also, the local Panamanian question is: We don’t know who is paying for Pedro Miguel Gonzalez’s Mango tree lawyer’s fees.

Either Dem as POTUS would be a disaster.

That's the Politics of Fear talking. Either Dem as POTUS would be a disaster for the Democrat party. Especially if it was Hillary -- pretty much everybody hates her, including Liberals.

The President is not King (or Queen). Hillary wouldn't have much power, more Republicans would be elected to Congress, she'd have a rocky four-year presidency, and be a stain on the Democrat party identity for decades -- that's what happens when First Ladies suddenly become entited to a crack at the White House. She'd be a Godsend to an identity of Limited Government that dares to brand itself "Republican," because voters will be RIPE to abandon the Democrat party and vote for less government.

McCain would further erode the identity of the Republican party and sabotage its attraction to future voters who, as they get older and smarter, tend to convert to conservatism. McCain is a Liberal, a big government guy who is a Republican Democrat. He's also a half-bubble off plumb, in all probability. I read "disaster," I think "McCain."
