"I know it is real"

Uh, Senator McCain, you can't "know" it if it isn't true. You can only believe it like the rest of your RINO socialist-lite superstitions and mythology.

Scientific evidence is going make your unemployed life more embarrassing than it would have been anyway.

Mom had that. Delusions. I don’t the senator has that disease. I think he really believes this nonsense and has been conned. Like much of the rest of the world.

You’re not from New England, are you? Otherwise you’d certainly see the folly in trying to scratch out the likes of Scott Brown. He’s a big accomplishment for us and to think there’d be a chance of better coming from MA is just out of touch with reality.

The regular Republicans like Romney and the like will endorse McCain because he's a sitting Senator. They have no choice really.

Everyone has a choice. Not everyone has character.

“I think he really believes this nonsense and has been conned. Like much of the rest of the world.”

I know, but doesn’t ever seem to you that if not some kind of dementia, the world must be suffering from some kind of mind-numbing disease to be so totally deceived?

There is merit to your position. Certainly something is going on. It is almost pied piperish isn't it.

I don’t like McCain, but his saying he believes in “climate change” is not a problem for me. I believe in climate change too and I also think the man caused global warming is bunk.

Further, if McCain is going to help defeat this bill he needs to convince others who actually believe Al Gore and others who actually know its BS but need other reasons to vote against it.

>>They have no choice really.<<

.
Why not? Does this mean that the politician is more important than the policy he espouses, even if the policy may lead to the ruination of the country?

I’m not one of the wrong headed people that think the Republican Party needs to be more moderate to get independant votes. This is precisely why Democrats are in control of everything now. Sure Scott Brown is better than Croakley, but voters need to hold this guy accountable especially now after he just got sworn in, and make sure he doesn’t become a Romeny clone.

Dear Senator McCain:

Thank you for your heroic service to our country all those years ago. We are grateful for your willingness to risk your life, and admire your courage during your long imprisonment.

Now it is evident that, much like Senator Goldwater, in your later years you have lost touch with conservative principles. Accordingly, we respectfully ask that you withdraw your name as a candidate for re-election to the U.S. Senate.

Please accept our best wishes for your retirement.

Well, Maurice Strong does live in that apartment compound in Beijing....

“Maurice Strong - No Better Place to Hide Than China
Written by Judi McLeod Tuesday, 31 October 2006 17:00

“Maurice Strong, a Canadian oil billionaire, was also the Secretary General of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro where the unveiling of Agenda 21 occurred. He said, “....current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class, involving high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work air conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable.”

The tantalizing tale of missing Kofi Annan pointman Maurice Strong is no longer one of those puzzling unsolved mysteries.

Canadian `Chairman Mo’, a big gun in the international arena, dropped right off the radar screen in April of 2005 when his alleged ties to the UN Oil-for-Food scandal cropped up and wouldn’t go away.

According to the investigative Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Mo’s location has been pinpointed, and it never required a Miss Marple to track him down.

AWOL Maurice Strong is alive and kicking in Beijing.”

FOrgot the tie in.....

“The new world devised by Maurice Strong and George Soros”

Fascinating! We know WHO is doing it. We know WHAT they are doing. We know HOW they are doing it. But the GOP does NOTHING. Or is it collaborating?


Because most Republicans are Free Trader Liberal Anti-American Globalists (FLAGS)....like Soros and Strong. Many in the GOP have the same economic world-view as Soros and Strong.

As much as some protest Soros (GOP, talk-radio, Fox News)...they support the same global economics Soros does. Soros sits on the boards of many companies that many GOP members, past and present, sit on.

Soros has been funding John McCain (Reform Institute) for years....and you had people posting on here willingly vote for John McCain.”

From McCain’s 2008 platform:

“What is the connection between climate policy and energy security?

• John McCain’s climate plan will reduce our dependence on oil like no other policy we’ve ever seen. It is obvious that we are more dependent than ever on foreign oil, importing more than 60 percent of our oil needs from abroad.

• The market-based cap-and-trade system will be the beginning of a McCain administration’s transition away from an oil-addicted economy and toward an energy supply that is secure, diverse, and domestic.

• It will provide the incentives for our nation’s energy producers to develop low carbon alternative fuels.”

A few more years and McCain too can be fossil fuel.

Hayworth — visionary [same as most conservatives].

McCain — naive [same as most RINOs].
