Vanity: Tipping Point Against McCain
06/11/208 | C19fan

Posted on 06/11/2008 3:59:13 PM PDT by C19fan

I was going to put on the gas mask and pull the lever for McCain this November but events of the past few days have led me not to vote for him.

1: McCain speaking at the racist, reconquista La Raza conference. 2: McCain still opposed to drilling in ANWR and comparing it to drilling in the Grand Canyon despite $4 + and climbing gas prices. Accoring to NRO Corner when asked about this he seemed peeved someone would have the audacity to ask him that question. 3: McCain giving veto power to coastal states on offshore drilling. The US owns these waters not the states. 4: McCain seemingly on board supporting windfall profits taxes and making a fascist statement that the government has the right to tell oil companies how they should invest in their money.

To be totally honest I live in CA where Obama is going to crush McCain but this will be the first time I do not vote for the GOP candidate for POTUS.

Though not a great choice, McCain is much better than what Obama will give us. I will gladly vote for McCain over the terrorist sympathizer Obama.

Now things get interesting.

What if Obama is ineligible because he is afoul of the natural born citizen requirement? Seems his mom was underage when his non-American dad got to her. He won’t release his birth certificate to dispel this rumor.

Its a choice between the candidate favored by muslims around the world and the other candidate hated by our sworn enemy.

If I’m not mistaken Congress passed a law giving veto power to the states on offshore drilling, if they met certain requirements.

McCain is the worst candidate... except for all the others.

When November rolls around, ask yourself who the troops in Iraq would want you to vote for. If you can't vote for yourself, at least vote for them.

Not that that’s a good thing, but I’m just saying as President, McCain couldn’t change it at the stroke of a pen even if he wanted to.

Exactly. I will be voting against Obama and that means not staying home to protest or voting for the idiot Barr. No Obama.

Yeah, My girlfriend was a McCain supporter but is now considering a write in vote. He isn’t going to win in Michigan either so I’m voting my conscience.

CA Ditto. I am ex Navy, and voted GOP every election since 1980. This will be my first year not voting for GOP. A McCain victory in Nov will utterly destroy the Conservative base and the GOP.

I am not. There is no doubt there are Obama trolls slithering through FR threads trying to depress turnout against Obama.

McCain certainly wasn’t my first choice in the primary... or second.. or even third.

But he’s still better than Obomoron.

And I think he will put decent Justice on the Supreme Court. And he won’t rush to pull us our of Iraq.

I live in the People Republic of Maryland too. But I’ll still vote for McCain because he IS better than the alternative.

Staying at home and not voting is ridiculous.

Millions of people on this planet can only DREAM of voting in an Election. Given the chance they would never consider staying home and not voting.

Heck. I guess we should all give up.

A vote for McCain will destroy the GOP.

But a vote for Obama will destroy the USA.

If your finger is bleeding, do you cut off your arm?

I believe that there are still quite a few who don't believe Obama would be a better President than McCain.

So do you vote for someone who is Socialist liberal and you agree with nothing he is about?
Do you vote for someone who you agree with about 60% of the time?
Do you vote for someone who will appoint liberal judges?
Do you vote for someone who will appoint conservative judges?

Do you vote for someone who will gut the Military?
Do you vote for someone who will support and build our Military?

Do you stay home and let the other side win?

Don’t tell me just because you don’t agree with some of his views you vote for Obama! That is just plain stupid, or your just a liberal trying to sway peoples opinion!

I guess you missed where Hussein Obama said his only problem with gas priices is they went up too fast. Hussein Obama thinks we should be paying these prices for gas. He has no problem with it.
