The headline says it all. BUMP-TO-THE-TRUTH!
It really hurts me that McCain is fighting harder to retain the AZ people’s senate seat than he did to defeat “the one”..
Was the election Tuesday?
Who won?
Bad politicians seem to go away only when they die.
sigh.
No, the time to retire was in Jan. 2008.
How about also retiring Mike Castle (R?) DE. He is a much bigger liberal than McCain and he has been growing government and wasting tax payer money for forty years.
Support a real conservative:
End this RINOs career tonight and help out with Christine' money bomb. Tonight!
Excuse the little pet peeve from the writing police:
The expression is a “180-degree turn.” If you turn around 360 degrees, you haven’t changed your bearing at all.
Turn the worn-out old horse out to pasture.
Old Manchurian Candidates don’t retire...
they just slowly fade away

I went to their site, found email addresses for the publisher and editor, and sent the below letter.
RE: Time for McCain to Retire
No conservative, and especially not the NRA or Sarah Palin, should ever support John McCain. Besides his problems of granting amnesty to illegal aliens and restricting freedom of speech, he is severely deficient in the areas of national security and integrity.
John McCain lacks leadership for the War on Terror. His leadership codified the Army interrogation manual making terrorists legal combatants. His leadership granted terrorists American citizenship rights under Fifth, Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments. He thereby ensures information vital to defeat terrorists remains sacred and unobtainable. Terrorists are unresponsive to direct questioning and psychological gambits. Therefore, interrogators need all stress and coercion techniques our military encounters in survival schools. McCain embraces liberal orthodoxy considering those methods torture, but his searing experiences call forth contrary insights he must suppress.
McCain understands the impossibility of fabricating an association of terrorists with Common Article Three of the Geneva Conventions, when they participate in international armed conflict, lack pacific character in regard to hostilities, and do not meet any definition of legitimate armed forces. Instead he understands that Article 13 of the First and Second Geneva Conventions and Article Three of the Fourth Convention must be consulted. McCain knows terrorists are not insurgents or freedom fighters; when captured, certainly not prisoners of war. They are not armed forces, militias, or volunteer corps of any country or authority. These killers are not members of organized resistance movements carrying arms openly. They have no distinctive identifier. Terrorists cannot even qualify as spies or saboteurs destroying infrastructure required to support military operations.
McCain understands Geneva Conventions intended to isolate such forces, provide them few protections, and allow destruction with any overwhelming furies needed to crush their abominations. Knowing these factors he promised to close Guantanamo Bay, inviting terrorists into our legal system. He decided to accommodate their extraordinarily savage behavior within our country, and thereby checkmate national laws intended to manage simple murder and kidnapping, and render Posse Comitatus a crumbling deception.
McCain especially appreciates from our Constitution that laws guaranteeing civil liberties presuppose operation within an invincible society. He understands Alexander Hamiltons words that the reality of devastating, unforeseeable perils must lead deliberations about national security. The primary responsibility of the Federal governments three branches is to pursue Hamiltons admonition that powers exist without limitation; providing capabilities thwarting looming dangers as well as responding to attacks. McCain understands powerful warfare capabilities require potent intelligence acquisition and exploitation before and throughout military campaigns.
The framers of our Constitution and the Geneva Conventions held powerful positions throughout the darkest times of our country and the world. They were our Founding Fathers, and parents and grandparents of the Greatest Generation. Their words expressed durable morality earned in our fight for freedom, and against the ultimate bloody deluges of the 20th century. These first generations expressed principles derived from confronting shattering tragedies, and earning peace through victory.
John McCains actions are particularly reprehensible because he turns a blind eye to the council of these people. McCain continually seeks popular advancement on national security issues by placating those coveting luxurious, asymmetrical morality requiring shelter from perilous choices and awareness of danger. His crime is repudiating military and intelligence professionals facing hard choices when confronting shrewd, ruthless enemies obscured behind frightening uncertainties.
McCain displays a boundless absence of integrity as he follows the success of Bill Clinton, who cemented in politics for both parties the idea that character did not matter. There are no principles, but only ideas that secure possession of an office. John McCain is the most prominent Republican example of this new direction towards possession of political power through careful exploitation of perceived expediency.
Politics is the art of compromise and leadership is the art of principle. Abraham Lincoln used superb political skills to implement some of the most cogent and insightful principles to guide this nation. John McCain has used political skills to implement compromises consistent with increasing his personal acclaim among liberal media and politicians. Lincoln is now dead and McCain is alive, but dead to principles unrelated to his immediate personal advancement. He is now using this aspect of his character to proclaim profound revelations concerning the value of conservative principles. The current effort to deceive Arizona voters that he opposes amnesty, while his political history emphasizes the contrary is just a recent example of his habitual, reprehensible behavior.
John McCain succumbed to the terrible addiction of political power. The same addiction expressed itself differently in fellow Navy officer Randy Cunningham, who was the Navys first Vietnam ace. Over the decades the honor and moral authority of both were gradually traded away for influence in the political arena. There is a vast, immeasurable gulf separating John McCain from the genuine people who dealt with the issues sponsoring the Geneva Conventions and our Constitution. He much more equates with the parasites now feeding upon the prosperity and security so painfully forged for their benefit. We now suffer imposters like him with such extraordinary mental athletic prowess as to scale unheard of heights of arrogance and studied ignorance and achieve unparalleled duplicity.
To me McCain is like a cadaver prepared for viewing. The removal of blood and organs equates to the trading away of honor and moral authority. The reputation that remains is like the cosmetics applied for viewing a corpse at the funeral. It is easy for anyone to get onto the same sort of gently downward sloping path. The final result is tragic, but we should not suffer such pathetic and contemptible modern day Macbeths or Hamlets as Republicans in the Senate or any other public office.
Yep,
No crap, Mcpain is a loser and a POS.
I respect his 5 plus years in a prison of war camp.
Today, he is a POS and a sell out.
I was a VET, not a POW and for that long lasting act of courage I salute John Mc Cain.
In 2010 John Mcpain needs to go hit golf ball balls and retire with grace.
No way! Sarah Palin said to vote for him so Arizonans should. /s
Adios, McQueeg!
B U M P
Effective immediately.
Why is it the people in Washington refuse to retire at an age when they are still somewhat viable? No, they have a death grip on staying until they are on their death bed.
Name recognition is so POWERFUL, no matter what they do.
God help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.
Excellent!
Listen Up! Great New Tune!
Flush the John! McCains Got to Go!
