Birthday Card Support Request from John and Cindy McCain
Email request for support for John McCain <cindy@johnmccain.com> | 8/26/2009 | downtownconservative

Posted on 08/26/2009 9:59:58 AM PDT by downtownconservative

Please send John your birthday message. Sign his online birthday card today

Dear Supporter,

This Saturday, August 29th, my husband John will celebrate his birthday. A few weeks ago, I wrote to you asking you to sign the online birthday card we've put together for him.

Over 30,000 of you have signed the online birthday card so far! I want you to know I appreciate each and every one of these birthday wishes and I know John will be excited to read them over the weekend.

If you haven't yet had the chance to sign the online birthday card, you can do so by following this link. There's also a special space to leave John a personal message.

John so enjoys his work representing the people of Arizona and with your help he can continue his service. So I hope, after signing the card, you will consider making a generous contribution to John's reelection campaign, so he can continue his service to our country. A contribution of $25, $50, $100 or more will be a big help.

As you know, John has never been one to step away from a challenge and his commitment to fight for the people of Arizona and our nation is as strong today as when he first arrived on Capitol Hill.

I'm sure you'll agree that his years of battle-tested leadership, combined with his powerful voice and clear vision are needed now, more than ever, in the U.S. Senate.

I personally believe that John's return to the Senate will greatly benefit our nation. His proven ability to work in a bipartisan manner and find consensus on so many hard-edged issues is invaluable in these days when political infighting and partisan gridlock seem to dominate Washington, D.C.

John is working hard to put together a campaign organization that will permit him to travel extensively throughout the state, build a solid grassroots operation, and remind Arizonans why they should reelect him to the U.S. Senate. That's why I hope you'll support his reelection campaign today by following this link to sign his birthday card and make a generous donation to his campaign.

Thank you again for being such an important part of our extended family.

My response: Dear John and Cindy:

I'm a conservative who believes our government is out of touch with its citizenry, out of touch with reality and completely out of control.

Senator McCain, as a former Marine (Naval) Aviator, I respect your service to America and consider you to be the highest of military heroes for your sacrifice and the honor you displayed in Vietnam. But I also see you as a Republican who bends left too often in a vain attempt to seek middle ground with Democrats. Senator, we have no middle ground with this current Democrat-controlled House and Senate. They are seeking to ram legislation down the throat of the American people that can only be described as unprecedentedly socialistic and diametric to the very principles upon which this country was established, principles you and I and our forefathers fought to protect.

Big government is ALWAYS BAD. The founding fathers knew that and established the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to guard against government intrusion, knowing full well that power always seeks more power. This current uber-power-grab by the Democrats needs to be squashed in no uncertain terms. (They won the election. They did not defeat the Constitution.)

If you reach across the aisle at this point, your hand had best be in a fist. This is a fight, a battle for freedom no different than any battle the Armies and Navies of this country have fought, to retain and sustain freedom. I cannot support you unless I know you have altered course. Please let it be known to the American people and the people of Arizona that you stand for the limits set forth in the Constitution that keep the federal government's tentacles out of the people's most intimate and sacred decisions and private lives. Let it be known that the Honorable Senator John McCain stands with the conservatives of America who love her, would die for her, and who are scared shitless (former Marine - pardon my French) that Obama and the Democrats plan to alter her forever, making her a shadow of her former self.

Our forefathers fled Europe and brilliantly formed a government of, by and for the people, with individual freedom as tantamount. We don't want to now emulate the Europeans who have never figured it out and have suffered accordingly.

We are the United States of America, land of the free, home of the brave. By his words and actions, Obama has demonstrated that he does not believe that. The same can be said for Pelosi/Reid who have publically stated that concerned Americans at town-hall meetings are “evil-mongers” and “swastika”-wearers. If you fail to make that realization, then you are a part of the problem. Now is the time to lead, John. Please open your eyes to the reality of change that will harm America, and make the difference your position empowers you to make.

Then, I will support you to the ends of the earth.

Sincerely,

Former Captain USMC Retired Airline Captain

The fact his ‘losing with honor’ campaign of last year produced the current administration keeps me from wishing him well in any endeavor, let alone his birthday.

I got no use for this guy.

I won’t tell him “happy birthday”, I won’t vote for him, let alone give him financial support. But as futile as it may seem, I can still try to reach him. He did name Sarah Pahlin as his running-mate.

Lots of us “former” marines about. Just no ex-marines. Truism: Once a Marine always a Marine. THX!

When clicking on Drudge Report this morning, I noticed an ad for Jesse Kelly for Congress in Arizona; a former Marine,I went to his site, he seems impressive. I think I’ll send him something instead. I really thought about responding to Cindy’s email, but supporting Kelly seems more productive; I also support Michelle Bachmann when I can afford it, and Pat Toomey here in PA. So thanks for the tip Cindy, I’ll just pass a contribution along to Mr. Kelly....

Juan McCain is a RINO who kisses Hussein’s arse on a regular basis. He needs to retire today.

As a republican taxpayer in the state of Arizona, I’ve received an invitation to sign his birthday card. I responded that I’d be more than happy to sign a “retirement card”.

John McShame has been damaged goods and a national embarrassment since returning to America in 1973 and should have never been elected to start with! Makes you wonder who he really works for; its one thing to be a self-serving narcissist making good decisions and another to be working for the enemies of America.

I voted for the man when I didn’t want to only because he was the lesser of two evils. Isn’t that enough?

McCain is busy kissing Kennedy's ass today. In doing so McCain told a story today (see paragraph 7) about how Kennedy had the Coast Guard throw a party for McCain's son. It does not even occur to McCain that it was likely that thousands of dollars was spent on a COAST GUARD CUTTER throwing a BIRTHDAY party for a kid.

These people think they are royalty!

Amen! My father always said “Once a Marine, ALWAYS a Marine” and he was very proud that he still WAS a Marine to the moment he passed.
