McCain: Hillary Would Be Good President
NewsMax.com ^ | Feb. 20, 2005 | Carl Limbacher

Posted on 02/20/2005 8:29:47 AM PST by Carl/NewsMax

Maverick Republican Sen. John McCain said Sunday that his New York colleague, Sen. Hillary Clinton, would do well if she becomes president of the United States.

"I am sure that Sen. Clinton would make a good president," McCain told NBC's "Meet the Press," as both he and Clinton were being interviewed from Baghdad.

While noting that as a Republican, he'll be supporting the GOP nominee in 2008, McCain reiterated, "I have no doubt that Sen. Clinton would make a good president."

Asked whether she thought McCain would make a good president, Sen. Clinton was somewhat less effusive, responding tersely, "Absolutely" - before erupting in her familiar cackle.

Well, Mr. McCain, thanks to your CFR bill, she has a slightly better chance of having the opportunity, since its greatest effect is to silence the voice of the little guy, the majority of which I believe, and hope, will be against letting this Marxist anywhere near the White House.

McCain wants to be her VP. It's his only chance at the White House.

All I need to know about McCain is here. Note that he DID go to a hospital.

found at: http://www.usvetdsp.com/mccainpic.htm

The following is McCain's own admission of collaboration in an article he wrote, printed May 14, 1973 in U.S. News and World Report:

"I think it was on the fourth day [after being shot down] that two guards came in, instead of one. One of them pulled back the blanket to show the other guard my injury. I looked at my knee. It was about the size, shape and color of a football. I remembered that when I was a flying instructor a fellow had ejected from his plane and broken his thigh. He had gone into shock, the blood had pooled in his leg, and he died, which came as quite a surprise to usa man dying of a broken leg.

Then I realized that a very similar thing was happening to me.

"When I saw it, I said to the guard, `O.K., get the officer.'

"An officer came in after a few minutes. It was the man that we came to know very well as `The Bug.' He was a psychotic torturer, one of the worst fiends that we had to deal with. I said, `O.K., I'll give you military information if you will take me to the hospital.'"

Someone tell me again WHY we should nominate this man? Someone tell me WHY I should vote for him? He's an opportunist that cannot be trusted. If it had been McCain secretly taped does anyone REALLY think the "real" John McCain would be the same one he gives the public? No. Bush is the real deal. McCain isn't.

McCain provides yet another layer to the multiple reasons behind my refusal to EVER see him head of the Republican Party. I will not vote for him. If there is such a thing as Anybody But McCain ticket Ill be hitched to it.

But I don't think it'll come to that. I think the dislike of this man among the base has only grown in four years.

McCain and Hillary.

Two egomaniacs who need to be kept as far from power as possible. The fact that either of these two windbags are in the senate and considered possible presidential material is frightening if you ask me.

As both of them are purely creations of the legacy media, I propose that we, members of the new media, make it a goal to make sure that neither of them is their party's nominee in 2008.

Is McCain just doing a usual bit of a$$-kissing or is he really not on our side?

Can't he just go away?

Remember all who told you not to worry about klintoon, hitlery and reno
after the 2000 election?
Remember all who said Ashcroft would prosecute them.
Remember Chinagate, Pardongate, Waco, Vince Foster, the Jewish town in NY etc., etc., etc. ?
Well reno ran against Jeb Bush and hitlery wants to beat Hanoi Kerry in 08

Are YOU willing to listen to the CINO's (Conservative in Name Only) again?

"before erupting in her familiar cackle" - If NewsMax wants to be taken seriously outside of the Conservative movement - i.e. preaching to the choir - and convert moderates - using such descriptive language only tends to isolate Newsmax and paints them as joke of a news service to the mainstream (and to some on the non neocon right not used to the mocking words that the former Red Diaper sect grew up on and were influenced by during their time as part of the Left).

I won't be getting in line to support any man who announces to the Islamofascists that if they kill enough of our men we will back downI won't be getting in line to support any man who announces to the Islamofascists that if they kill enough of our men we will back down

So you'd put a gun grabbing, infant murdering, socialist in power before you'd vote for McCain?

That's the same mentality of the folks who argued against voting for Bush due to his immigration/spending policies.

Almost everyone on the crissie mathews show today was insisting that she always HAS been middle of the road!

I'd take a wild guess that Vince Foster & Ron Brown would think otherwise...........( IF, they could..)

Neither of them will ever become President

I would bet against McCain straight up.....But I'd need points to bet against Rod Ham.

Here, see if this helps...

Secret agent Democrat Sen. John McCain said Sunday that his New York colleague, Sen. Hillary Clinton, would screw us all over if she becomes president of the United States.

"I am sure that Sen. Clinton knows how to do it," McCain told NBC's "Meet the Press," as both he and Clinton were displaying a truly ugle version of bad intercourse in Baghdad.

While noting that that he plays a Republican on TV, he'll be undercutting the GOP nominee in 2008, McCain reiterated, "I have no doubt that Sen. Clinton would screw this nation over big-time, there-by increasing the stature of her (on again, off again, well mostly off again) husband's administration, by comparison."

Asked whether she thought McCain would make a good president, while grabbing a robe, Sen. Clinton was somewhat less effusive, responding tersely, "Well, I've had better..." - before returning to Washington to find a good location in Fort Marcy Park.

Neither McCain nor Hillary Clinton will ever be president. McCain is a has-been. HRC might be nominated by the Jackass Party, but she would be defeated because: 1) she's more hype than substance; 2) she's a socialist; 3) she fails to inspire "trust"; 4) she looks awful on camera; 5) she's carrying too much Clinton baggage; 6)she would be a disaster among Hispanic voters; 7) she would be a disaster among male voters; 8) she would be a disaster among religious voters; 9) she would be a disaster in the so-called "red states"............etc. But the key reason is that a majority of the voters do not trust her.

There's really no other way for him to answer without coming across as rude.

The message from McCain: Hillary is qualified to be president because she would be good. The 2008 GOP nominee is qualified to be president because I, McCain am a partisan.

That's hardly just the avoidance of being rude.

At least that's how NewsMax portrays what McCain said.

Right much better to put a pro choice, first amendment hating, border opening irrational guy like McCain into the White House so then the islamofascist know for certain that there is a threshold of dead American soldiers and marines that will cause America to withdraw.

The choices are not either or pal. McCain ain't getting the nomination.

That's the same mentality of the folks who argued against voting for Bush due to his immigration/spending policies.

Not even close. I opposed Bush's profligate spending and immigration policy yet sent him donations in the 4 digit range, campaigned for him and attended his inaugaral. I won't be doing any of those for John McCain.
