Oh, how the MSM fetes these sycophants of the New York Times! What joy it must be to be so popular with those who essentially think there is no difference between the US and al Qaeda. Conservatives will never forgive these three Senators for endangering our nation so they could be popular in socialist salons and Liberal news papers.

I would vote for a Libertarian with a zero chance of winning the election, before I would vote for McCain.

Why doesn't he just officially cross over to the dark side? He's been there in spirit for a long time.

It is high ground if you call it high ground.

Definition is everything.

He who frames the issue, decides the course of the dialogue.

And the issues are framed by the person who has the biggest bullhorn. We knew that back in the 1960's.

"Amnesty John," like Al Gore, has a phenomenal talent for getting on the wrong side of a short term issue. He saw the march in Los Angeles and other cities by the illegals flying the Mexican flags upside down, and jumped on the bandwagon of support. Little did he realize how infuriating it was to most Americans who support existing laws and want immigration issues resolved prior to granting Amnesty to illegals (and terrorists) crossing the Mexican border.

Moreover, he can triangulate on a controversial issue in the manner only the Clinton's can appreciate, such as when it comes to terrorists and Geneva Convention language (and most any other controversial issue). The McCain/Feingold finance reform initiative was anything but... McCain is a loser (and a sore loser at that) who will never get the Republican nomination.

McCain may be positioning himself for a run as an independent, but he is also trying to justify his own behavior as a prisoner of war. I can still visualize his picture in the paper after he broke and compromised with the enemy in exchange for special treatment as a POW.

Since Senators have personal bodyguards, and security at home and at work, obviously their concerns are not with us peons.

I so despise this pathetic turd McVain. He has so given the lie to any service he gave in the military as to essentially spit on the military. I DAMN this man for the crap he has foisted upon this country and this is beyond the pale.

May he rot. He damn sure is a rot in this Congress!

McCain on the "high ground"?
Hardly...

This is the same man who as an incompetent pilot, earned the title "Ace" -- not for downing 5 enemy planes - but for being the pilot of 5 planes destroyed by his incompetence or "accident".
This is the same man who admitted violations of the Code of Conduct as a POW.
This is the same man who divorced the wife that stood by him, and fought for his release as a POW.
This is the same man whose 2nd wife was caught stealing drugs to support her habit.
This is the same man involved in the Keating Five corruption/scandal - accepting money to protect the one man most responsible for the Savings and Loan Bank failures, which the taxpayers had to bail out.
This is the same man who worked to "certify" Vietnam deserved to have trading sanctions lifted -- and insulted the POW/MIA families present at the Senate Hearings.
This is the same man who defends to this day - the actions and lies of John F'ing Kerry.
This is the same man presently more concerned with protecting the "rights" of terrorists - rather than the defense of the Republic.
This is the same man who told others to READ and PROTECT the Geneva Conventions when considering "torture" of terrorist detainees ---- where any reading of the Conventions will show that terrorist detainees are NOT ENTITLED TO ANY OF THE REQUIRMENTS of the Geneva Conventions.
This is the same man whose craving for power is totally unsupported by qualifications, history or character.

Any Party that gives this failed bastard the nomination - has cast me overboard....

Semper Fi
