Ditto that. McCain is owned by the Chinese in partnership with George Soros just like the Clintongs are.
The list of reasons to vote against McCain was already long, but the lie he told about Romney yesterday made made it too long for me.
If we McCain gets the GOP nomination and is elected, there won’t be a Republican in the White House ever after. By 2012, the GOP will be dead.
Anyone who dares oppose John McCain on ANYTHING gets the "captivity card" thrown down on the table. The man gets a pass on any behavior, no matter how foul, and he has gotten it for decades. Between he and John Kerry, you'd think nobody else stepped foot in SE Asia. What is now becoming glaringly obvious to me is that the man is so far up the azz of every crooked, entrenched apparatchik in DC that he has now become the "Republican" Hillary: the "inevitable" candidate who is the ancient personification of the same old crap. It is appearing that the 'rats are going to wise up and toss their dinosaur over the side of the ship, while the 'pubs will yet again demand that the little people shut up and support the pale, aging albatross who the honchos are putting around our necks.
"But he's a hero! Shut up and honor his service!" Well if that's the criteria we want to use, there's no shortage of military men and women who've gone through hell, and my opinion is we could throw darts at the phone book and find a combat vet with better conservative credentials than John McCain. The local VFW has plenty of people that are more trustworthy.
The GOP will rot if this man is their nominee.
If this man is the nominee, the GOP can rot with my blessing; I've been a Republican since 1974, but John McCain is my line in the sand. At least by becoming an independent, these individual campaigns might be kissing my butt instead of kicking it.
Mr. niteowl77
Here's my list, prior to his lie about Romney.
McCain:
— adamantly against the Bush tax cuts (he now says that it was b/c there were not enough spending cuts, but when he opposed them, he took the Dem class warfare lie that it was “tax cuts for the rich”) (former Senator Santorum said that McC was "leading the charge" against the Bush tax cuts),
— led the fight in favor of amnesty for illegals (McCain-Kennedy),
— leader in evading the first amendment & getting the first substantial restrictions on political speech in U.S. history (McCain-Feingold, aka, the Incumbent Protection Act),
— ignoring the second amendment, McC sponsored the McCain/Lieberman gun show bill, which would have given the federal government the administrative power to prohibit all gun shows, and to register everyone who attends a gun show per http://www.trugop.org/Editorials/2ndAmendment.htm,
— sponsored the McCain/Lieberman Cap and Trade System to Reduce Greenhouse Gases, which would hurt consumers, drive up business costs, and drive business to China and undeveloped countries that don't restrict carbon dioxide emissions (McC, willing to pay any price to fight GoreBull Warming, foolishly believes that such regulations create "green" jobs, in total ignorance of the famous Broken Window Fallacy),
— a key RINO in the Gang of Fourteen, thus undercutting GOP fight against Dem improper filibusters of conservative judicial nominees,
— promises to close GITMO the first day that he is president so that he can move the world’s worst captured terrorists to the U.S., possibly to a neighborhood near you,
— is against waterboarding of even the most vicious terrorists, even when interrogation experts believe it is necessary or advisable to get info in order to save innocent American lives, and despite the fact that it is not torture, it is done routinely on some U.S. military during training, it has reportedly only been used 2 or 3 times against terrorists, and McC’s critique plays into leftist smears against the U.S. for torture,
— using the language of the socialist left, he now attacks the pharmaceutical industry, one of the crown jewels of the U.S. economy, and is trying to force drug re-importation (those vicious people in big pharma, who actually want to make a profit by helping cure people and alleviate pain, were the "big bad guys" per McC),
— is against drilling in ANWAR, McC comparing ANWAR to the Grand Canyon (ANWAR is "what hell would look like if it froze over" per the IBD) ,
— wants an economic stimulus bill, but incredibly says that it should be "paid for" by spending cuts in total ignorance of the theory behind any stimulus which is to increase govt spending and borrowing, thus to increase economic activity ("paying for" a gov stimulus bill negates the purpose, it means that it is no longer a stimulus),
— curries favor with his friends in the liberal media, even as they trash conservatives in McC’s own party, and
— toyed with the idea of accepting the VP nomination of his good friend, John Kerry (Kennedy, Feingold, Lieberman, Kerry, all liberal Dems, see any pattern?).
I probably left something out, but that will have to do.
Considering this atrocious record, no conservative should support McC in the primary.
McC is a true American hero for his war service. He was been strong and steady relative to Iraq and the surge. He should be given a medal & sent home to a rocking chair.
McC is not the right person to lead the country.
Saying he is not the right person to lead the country is a gross understatement, in my opinion.
Wow BillF you put forth a well though compelling list.
Very well done. Add one more item though.
Destruction of POW/MIA records by McCain and Kerry to appease North Vietnamese officials.
Sounds like you despise him as much as I do. I don’t mind when politicians attack each other’s positions, even if it’s a little vicious, but lying about what one says-that’s it for me. Yesterday when I saw this Juan “my friend” guy in a photo on Michelle Malkin’s site, it made me sick. I can’t stand him. My friend, yeah right.
McCain has entered my “loathe” column this election. In 2004, Kerry and Michael Moore sickened me.
Some Good points Ben Ficklin, the thing of that is, Mexico can try whatever they want, the impulse will be to stay in the US and avoid returning to Mexico.
What the policy that you outline does accomplish is inserting a large population into America that has mixed loyalties, this is the first time that has happened with a neighboring country.
It has been 13 years since NAFTA was signed into “law” and the Exodus of Mexicans has been astounding, so the idea that this is some manage able situation is not reality, it is folly.

“I wish there was some way to get this information about McCain out to the voters at large. The illegal-loving media, any of them, aren’t going to do it”
That’s what it’s going to take. I’m sending faxed information to various states before their primaries. For instance today to Florida to some Senior citizen centers.
We agree all the way.
Cultural Marxism is the radical political philosophy that is transforming America. The primary tool used to leverage this philosophy is Political Correctness. The incubator of this philosophy and its associated tools was the Communist think-tank, the Frankfurt School.

I don’t believe them, and I certainly don’t believe HIM.
Mexico . . . where top officials are already SLAG chipped and THEIR illegal aliens are slated to be SLAGGED soon—may have already started.
McChurian is deeply committed to globalism in all it’s tyrannical horrors.
The NORTH AMERICAN UNION/NORTHAM . . . one of the 10 regions of the world government apportioned political entities . . . as Scripture predicted 2000 years ago . . . is kind of an incidental thing he’s happy to support.
Nice theory. But what happens to our nation in the meantime, hosting a large unassimilated alien and often hostile population?
And why should we have to??
The best way for the word to get out about POS Hernandez, is for the other limp wristed RINOs to make sure THIS is known. McCain, a Shamnesty traitor.
This needs to be mentioned on the sunday talk show thread
(so all the DBM types can read it)
