Minuteman Project THROWN OUT OF JOHN McCAIN's OFFICE -- After Action Report Part II
Self | June 4,2006 | The Spirit Of Allegiance (former screen name Blurblogger)

Posted on 06/04/2006 8:01:07 AM PDT by The Spirit Of Allegiance

Friday, May 12, I with about a dozen others in the Minuteman Project Caravan to Washington D.C. visited the offices of Senators offices on both sides of the 'Amnesty' issue. We first stopped by the office of Senator Jeff Sessions and expressed our GREAT APPRECIATION for his heroic fight against the Leftists and the compromised 'Conservatives' in the Senate. His staff was very pleased to host our group.

Then, we went to some that were not exactly heroes, at least not lately. As a group or individually, I also visited the offices of Frist, Feinstein, Brownback and a number of others.

I had the audacity to write in Senator Chuck Hagel's public Guest Book a written demand that he enforce the law and uphold the Constitution. Anyone who can verify my May 12 entry there--as a taxpayer very appropriately utilizing taxpayer-purchased materials--please feel free to do so. But I'll bet that particular book just winds up 'lost' or missing a page.

A photographer from The Washington Times was with us for the final several hundred miles along the Caravan. She photographed the Hagel guest book while we were in his office. I don't think the photo made it into print, however.

I made a similar entry in Senator John McCain's guest book that same day. Various members of the caravan were present. While I wrote, others politely but firmly insisted that Senator McCain uphold the U.S. Constitution. Although we were peaceful, the tall young man at the front desk probably pushed a hidden button, because without his phoning anyone, a dour, dark-haired woman looking to be in her 40s, with a silent man about the same age, came from behind varnished doors. She told us to leave immediately or we would be reported to the Capitol Police and arrested. Wow. So much for constituent free speech!

She had no name tag on. I asked her name but The Dour One refused to provide the information. I asked her title but she remained silent. If dirty looks could kill, there would have been a dozen Minuteman corpses! The silent man accompanying her seemed to be also mute--or ashamed of his name as well. We left. I WISH I had a photo of that, um, public servant. There was a private photo taken of the McCain guest book by our group; I hope to locate who took it.

The Dour One was not a junior aide, she was some sort of senior staffer for McCain. McCain would have wanted us treated exactly that way. Yes, constituents like us make it very inconvenient for humble public servants to arrogate their wishes upon a dumbed-down populace. And we intend to make it even harder for such dour parasitic lice as these to remain AS public servants.

People of Arizona, you need to send some people in for Sensitivity Training. Not as in sensitivity to my feelings. Sensitivity to what the whole McCain staff is going to need for their NEXT JOBS after we vote Treacherous Johnny out of office!

A recent FR poll asked whether I'd vote for McCain vs. Hillary for President. I didn't vote. I DO NOT TRUST THE MAN. And the way his staff treated us was exactly how I'd expect to be treated by a political enemy. I guess I am--because I expect anyone on a governmental payroll in the United States of America to be loyal to the U.S. Constitution, to say the Pledge of Allegiance and to defend this Country--not betray it. Mr. McCain, thanks for your past service, but you are now no friend of America, Sir.

Meanwhile, it is IMPERATIVE that true Conservatives not be dismayed or alienated from the GOP--we just need to weed out the untrustworthy RINOs and CINOs posing as Republicans. THAT is the solution, not being divided-and-conquered by Leftist friends like McCain!

With McPain, anything he says is gospel. Anything his opposition says is heresy.

McPain is a bad joke.

I'm actually not surprised at all. No one has run against him in the primaries in AZ for years. He talks out both sides of his mouth when he is hear and the local media (even one of the talk radio hosts) worship him. He does not listen to those he represents. He has even said he will vote the way he wants on things, no matter how many letters and phone calls he gets. A lady from AZ called her local office and it linked to Washington. Instead of just writing down her opinion and contact info., the woman who answered argued with her. Said it is our duty to pay taxes for illegals.

Yet, on the local news I saw a sound bite from John McCain where he said that we need to do something about it, since there are 11 million people who do not belong here. I almost think he's got multiple personality disorder.

Good to see McCain following in the footsteps of Daschle.


May he suffer the same fate.

Wow. So much for constituent free speech!

Free speech is only for those who can afford to pay the speaking fee.

It didn't sound like they were "causing a ruckus" and those offices are not "someone's" they belong to and are paid by We the People.....We have every right to be there.

We are already losing our hold on this Republic thanks to the likes of McCain....What's next? we won't be allowed to speak in their presence? must we avert our eyes and bow?

I don't support marching into someone's office and causing a ruckus.

The mere peaceful presence of Minutemen constitutes a "ruckus"?

McCain's the one who said he'd rather have "clean government" than the First Amendment. He's a loose cannon, and I'm just terrified he's going to be the Republican nominee for 2008.

I don't think that the GOP will float McCain. If he runs, the door will be open for the Dims to take the presidency barring a good 3PC.

I have a hard time believing that McCain will be reelected in AZ in '10. In fact, I'd guess that if he were running this fall, he'd lose.

Thanks, SoA/BB. I've wondered where you were.

Totally agree with you, too.

The Minutemen patriots should have simply pointed out that they were there to sign up for $50 an hour lettuce picking jobs.

Our public servants are becoming quite uppity and in dire need of instruction in proper respect for their masters.

John McCain had NO problem at all inviting Cindy Sheehan to a private meeting. Guess patriots are persona non grata as far as McCain is concerned.

And don't forget that McCain treated the Viet Nam MIA families the same way! He doesn't want to be bothered with anything that gets in the way of his carefully concocted POW "heroics" and his modern day kowtowing to the communist regime. Clearly, McCain is only interested in gaining more power and covering up the reality of what did happen and IS happening to our country by our enemies from within.

I'm still surprised he won last time. But, there are a lot of people who do not follow politics who think McCain is some sort of hero because the media says so. I have moderate in-laws who think he's great. When I told my sister-in-law his stance on illegals before these bills came out, she said he probably was just more compassionate because he had been prisoner in a foreign country.

I will be sending a check to the Swift Boat Vets for Truth if they decide to speak the truth about McCain and his deliberate abandonment of the MIA/POWs left in Viet Nam.

McCain needs to change his party affiliation. He no longer represents the conservatives/republicans of AZ.

Here is the plan to deal with McCain. Every time he come into your town he get greeted with the following. This should be good for all the other RINO's too. (Frist, etc.)
  1. Mariachi Music, The Mexican Nation Anthem and Mexican Hat Dance.
  2. Pinata with McCains Face. inside are the Campaign contributions from OBL Companies
  3. We can work on parodies of the Mexican Hat Dance (Republican Hat Dance, etc.)

Put on a good show and get the press to show up and give you lots of free press. I was hoping to try out parts of this but McCain canceled in San Diego.

Freepmail me if you want to have access to music and other resources.

Glad to hear it. In the last sentence of my former post, I should have added:

"Clearly, McCain is only interested in gaining more power and covering up the reality of what did happen and IS happening to our country by our enemies from within, of which he is apart of.
