Just called the OkC office....it’s true. I let them know I was disappointed in his endorsement.
Coburn will always be his own person.
Who do you think Coburn should have endorsed?
We can still hope this is a mis-informed leak, but...
I just called his DC office. EVERYONE CALL!!! LOL we defeated shamnesty we can give him a piece of our minds.
Say it ain’t so.
No- we can WISH- read up thread- some FReepers called his office..but I’m calling too and I live in Florida. He’s one of the FEW left I trusted. And Jeff Sessions.
Call his office. Tell all your friends to do the same.
Well, with that endorsement, he’ll be in like Flint!
“Who do you think Coburn should have endorsed?”
The other senator from Oklahoma, Inhofe endorsed Fred.
The Coburn-DeMint amendment addresses the key fear about the Senate immigration bill: that amnesty will first be granted and security provisions will never be fulfilled. <--NO KIDDING.
Failure to gain control of and secure our borders is the very antithesis of "Security" - Coburn should know better.
... and the fact that McCain has never "earmarked" a bill.
If true, that's "nice", but so what? It is nowhere near the top of the list of issues threatening this country.
Coburn has simply screwed-up. This won't help McCain all that much, but it will damage Coburn's reputation and credibility.
John McCain would never nominate a judicial candidate without prior consultation and approval from Chuck Schumer and his other "esteemed Senate colleagues" from the "loyal opposition". Any nominee he submitted would be a pre-vetted, acceptable, compromise nominee. They'd get quick "bi-partisan" approval alright, and they would prove disastrous.
Hunter or Thompson. IMO.
You must admit McCain’s position on illegal aliens is shocking. His pro life stance is mere lip service. He brings to mind the Manchurian Candidate. He even voted against permanently barring violent gang members and terrorists from the US. Shows which side he is on. Even his own son refuses to speak to him.
This might mean McCain would be a reasonably good Secretary of Defense. He can't be a good president of the United States if he continues to be big on "open borders."
He might make a good president of Mexico.
I basically told the guy the same thing...
If true, that's "nice", but so what? It is nowhere near the top of the list of issues threatening this country.
That's what I was told. Would disagree with you though...on that not being a serious issue. Run-away spending...may be the death of us in the long run. Although I agree considering everything...to pick that "issue" seemed odd to me too.
I'm sure there's more to it....
Coburn has simply screwed-up. This won't help McCain all that much, but it will damage Coburn's reputation and credibility.
We shall see...what we shall see.
{rimshot} Good one!
