What needs to be done cannot be discussed on this board.

“The divisions between conservatives and republicans are playing right into the hands of the left.”

Amen to that.

This reads like a praise piece compared to what will come regarding Mac. The man has more skeletons in his closest than Eve with 12 faces.

The question all should be asking is how did a left wing liberal like Mac become the republican front runner in the first place?

Take your pick, either Hillary or Obama will kick this snarly faced lying bastard’s ass in the major. With this in mind, is it fair to question how and why did this occur?

This is the first time I ever heard of a midshipman at Annapolis being called a “Cadet.”

Does Timberg know the difference between the Naval Academy and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point? Sheesh.

Huckabee, CinC...... LOL.

Are you and the rest of the malcontents going to continue to hammer McCain during the general election to insure we get something much worse for CinC, US policy setter, SCOTUS nominator, etc.?

McCain is by far not the best of what we could have had but it didn’t happen. Unless something happens outside the normal political arena during McCain is who we will have as the nominee.

Heck, I remember one of Rush's most popular parody ditties from the first Gulf war....."Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iraq".....used to hum it to myself.

Guess that makes McCain and me "warmongers".

“The question all should be asking is how did a left wing liberal like Mac become the republican front runner in the first place?”

Bingo! I don’t get it at all. I look at his rise as comprised of several elements. First, the media has certainly fanned the McCain wisp of smoke into quite the inferno. His run past the field is quite surprising. It is something that rings so untrue, so behind-closed-doors. Second, the desperation angle is once again forcefully in play (and, these are, of course, desperate times). Our nation is at THE CROSSROADS. I don’t think that should be taken as being spoken figuratively in any way. We are just about ready to drown (in illegals), starve (through econmic crises and taxation, and perish (as we stand alone against terror.) A false move this way or that could require the ultimate in payment for our nation. But acting on emotions (desperation) is not the way to go (in just about anything in life.) And, again, there is something behind this that rings false. I don’t know—the sense one gets of being manipulated (advertisers often try to manipulate feelings when they want potential buyers to act.) Finally, what exactly has prompted the shift to moderation in the Republican party? And what does it mean that Republicans are willing to take such a risk at such a perilous time in our nation’s history?

McCain may well stay the course in Iraq, but he indicates he is willing to redefine the very homeland our troops are heroically defending. Is this what we want? Is it really?

Is it?

Really?

You act as if the country is yours for the risking. The McCain candidacy should tell you that our country is already lost. So, as long as you have the one hand up, why not raise the other (and try to see the handwriting on the wall.)

Oh please! I don't buy into the all-or-nothing ("If I can't get everything I want I'll just have to blow my brains out") game. That's for defeatist losers.

I don’t care if this guy was a Green Beret, his analysis is unhinged and inane.

Two terrorist are holding us hostage. One of them seemes like he will not kill us right away so some of us here want to go be friends with him. Many of the rest say they would rather die than submit. This is not about throwing 'our guy' overboard. Mcain is not and never will be 'my guy'.

I can’t stand McCain, I must have sent out a couple hundred emails to help defeat his Amnesty, and his military record is terrible....But

My friend, I understand, I’ve been there and voted that way all my life. Every cycle our candidate moves further and further to the left. You’ve got to draw the line somewhere. McCain is a great place to draw the line.

Until we stop enabling the republican party, we will never get a conservative candidate. I WILL NOT SUPPORT JOHN McCAIN. Join the revolution!

I’m no McCain fan, but there’s so much wrong with this hit piece. McCain had help from his family because of their influence? Uh, yeah. So did the Bushes, the Kennedys, Gore, and on and on. Who here really believes George Bush would have been governor, much less president, without the the Bush name and influence?

He lost 5 planes? I see one, maybe two, that might have really been his fault.

And then there’s this line...

“In 1964 McCain became involved with Carol Shepp, a model from Philadelphia,”

Became INVOLVED WITH!!! Horrors. A MODEL!!! Double horrors.

What about “In 1964 McCain fell in love with Carol Shepp of Philadelphia.”

“Cadet McCain”. That one single phrase speaks volumes - about its author.

There are many things that we may or may not know about Senator John McCain; but one thing we know for sure:

Anyone who uses the term “Cadet” to refer to a Midshipman at the United States Naval Academy is acknowledging to the world that he/she has about as much knowledge and authenticity as a left-handed Bill Clinton salute.

Enough of this shiite, once and for all. It makes this board look like the Daily Kos for Christsake.
