McCain is not a far left liberal, because he is strong on national defense and against abortion. But when I read this “climate change” nonsense it is maddening. I will agree that true air pollution should be reduced, I don’t want to breath it. But convincing people they have a religious duty to fight global warming? Oy.
McCain supports Geneva treaty conventions for terrorist and supports congressional oversight military interrogations. I don’t call that being strong on national defense. As far as as opposing abortion, it was a position of convenience and has remained so.
McCain is opposed to lower taxes. He helped right McCain Feingold and supports Gay marriage, and amnesty (he doesn’t call it that any more).
McCain is a leftist.
