I'm done with John McCain
The Daily Kenoshan, Kenosha, Wis. ^ | 2008-12-17 | Lisa Loring

Posted on 12/16/2008 10:58:21 PM PST by rabscuttle385

I normally don't stay up late enough to watch Late Night with David Letterman, but I happened to catch a little of it Thursday night, when Sen. John McCain was on. David Letterman make a rude joke about Gov. Sarah Palin, and John McCain laughed at it. That is when I realized I am done with John McCain.

. . . . .

If I were Rod Blago, I'd use some nice four-letter words to describe how I feel about Sen. McCain, but I'm not, so I won't.

. . . . .

I'm glad Sen. McCain didn't win the election. This way, I don't have to defend him anymore. If he were president, and he screwed up, or did something that was moderate, Republicans would have gotten the blame.

I'm washing my hands of Sen. McCain.

I'm tired of defending RINOs.

I'm not doing it anymore, and I know many in the Republican party are tired of it, too.

Please. Go easy one the Grandpas.

McCain's maturity was a plus, IMO. He made Barry look naive and green. I do hope McCain lives a good long life, if only to prove liberals wrong about his life expectancy.

McCain has shown himself to be of little character as do many of our politicians.

...Two questions, who do you now support? And, why did it take so long to denounce McCain. No need to answer the first, I think I can figure it out, starts with a P...

McCain’s biggest failure is summed up by the word compromise. When he suspended his campaign on September 24th to go to Washington DC to deal with the Fannie Mae collapse, all eyes were on him. What did we see? A man affected by the desire to compromise. What did it produce? Failure.

This allowed the electorate to blame the failure of the economy on President Bush and the Republicans.

If we take a reasoned look at McCain’s actions during the Lincoln Savings and loan debacle, it becomes clear what the man’s flaws were from near the start of his political career.

He was willing to sell his soul for campaign bucks. He was willing to ‘hang out’ with folks who were ideologically diametrically opposed to a Conservative’s point of view.

John stated that he knew better than to meet with banking regulators on behalf of Charles Keating. He says he really didn’t want to do it. He had decided to avoid doing it, but when Keating prevailed upon him, he did so anyway. John knew it was wrong. He did it anyway. That’s his take on it, and I don’t have any reason to view it differently. John sold out on principle to do something highly questionable. And he did it at the expense of his constituents.

John was a member of the Keating Five. He was the only Republican. The rest were miscreant Democrats. Scratch that. They were all five Democrats, it’s just that four of them had the stones to declare themselves to be what they actually were. John never even had that much backbone.

Today John still hangs out with leftists. He was willing to use Sarah Palin. He now thinks it’s funny to laugh at her expense. That’s the John McStain I’ve some to loathe.

John’s political career has made me question every aspect of his life. You don’t get to be what John McCain is today, without stepping on folks every step of the way. So I give John no slack. He simply hasn’t earned it.

Thank God I don’t have to look back and know I voted for the prick. I’ve held the same opinion of this snake for a long long time. There’s no way I will every vote for John McCain for any public office. He is unfit to serve.

You mark my word. As Obama’s term progresses, expect John McCain to defend him again and again. And expect to see him trash Republicans for objecting.

Palin is ten times the man he is. He served up Obama on a platter.

Yep, John McCain in his own words... that’s the ticket.

McCain should have gotten two votes in November. The rest should have sent the Republican party a message.

The one that was sent by folks voting for him, is downright scary.

Global warming RINO fool and you are all right about him but I would have gladly taken McCain over Obamanation. I'm deeply worried Americans will die because of what Obama is about to do to our intelligence agencies.(Notice the Press is not reporting none wants to be his CIA Chief) I always think of Todd Beamer and those regular people who were the first American Strike Force against the Islamic terrorists and in honor of their sacrifice I would personally dunk a million terrorist's heads in water to save one innocent life.

And to boot Sarah has defended McCain to the death. What a classy lady. As I said on another post McCain’s POW ordeal happened 40 years ago-that’s way beyond the Statute of Limitations to cite mitigating circumstances—he’s an idiot. It is what it is.”

As far as I’m concerned, anyone who claims to be Republican and urges support for Obama, can be added to th list of “I’m done withs.”

That includes, Newt and Colin Powell.

On those two-button toilets, can you push both buttons at the same time to get that old time flush (needed for serious floaters like McCain)?

“I could only think of about one thing I liked in John McCain. One thing. He hates budget earmarks as much as I do.”

Or so he said. And then McCain took time out of his campaign to rush back to DC and help pass the 700B bailout bill that was so pork/ear-mark filled, it put the lie to McCain’s campaign promises to end ear marks.

The US Govt is so corrupt and incompetent that if we did away with all elections and chose our leaders, at all levels of govt by random drawing like in being chosen for jury duty, we would get an instant 100 pct improvement in government.

We would thus go from a corrupt and incompetent govt, to one merely incompetent. Save save bill...trillions on election costs.

Of course if the process was conducted the way Democrats run the voting process, we could get pets, dead people, illegals and felons selected for the Presidency, etc.

Right after the election, I took a razor blade and cut off the top of my McCain - Palin bumper sticker. It now just says Palin. I never was a McCain supporter, and never will be. He is a self-centered RINO!

McCain is a damn idiot.

He needs to stay in Arizona, and shut the hell up.

Without Sarah Palin, that worthless @sshole would have gotten no more than 20 million votes.

no more Grandpas.

Okay, so no more Reagans, then. Let's throw the baby out with the bathwater.

It's not McCain's age that was the problem.

Perfect article I could not agree more.
To hell with McLame and ALL RINO TURDS.
I’m tired of these worthless jerks.
I am a Reagan conservative, best govt is less govt.
JOhn McLame is a f@#king RINO along with the likes
of Hagel and graham. They and those like them can kiss my rear.
Hey Republican party I will not support you again as
long as you send up old tired white rino bastards anymore.
I’m just sitting here looking for a new real conservative party.
