OK. Just listened to it.

He’s lost his marbles. Either that, or maybe somebody else is writing his stuff. Do you think he’s even ever watched a Lord of the Rings movie?

When we re-write the Constitution after the approaching revolution, let’s not forget the term limits.

I’m not sure he was paid. I think he’s a volunteer.

It wasn’t that long ago that McCain was veering right in order to get re-elected. This is a man who will lick a conservative boot for votes and then kick the voter in the teeth once he feels it’s safe to do so.

The sad fact is, voters have short memories and McCain knows this. We are getting the government we deserve, good and hard.

McCain is absolute scum of the earth. How many times in how many ways does he have to prove it?

>"Sorry Juan old boy. The only reason I voted for you in 08 was because Sarah Palin was on the ticket. If it hadn’t been for Palin, I WOULD HAVE STAYED HOME!"

Ditto

He "thought" he was picking the worst possible VP he could, and boy did he! The worst for the dims like him!

Well, I don't care for John McCain's politics, but he is of course correct that a BBA, in any form, cannot pass the House or the Senate, not today and not any other day.

The problem is the money, not the finance.

With sound money (a//k/a constitutional money), everything, including correct incentives and a (mostly) balanced budget, falls into place.

With unlimited borrowing and money creation, nothing can work properly.

The Revolution and forms of government created pursuant to it were entirely cognizant of human nature.

To live peacefully with credit-based consumption and free money, men would have to be angels, and they are not.

“I don’t know why he doesn’t just join the Democrats.”

Because he knows he can do more damage to the Republican party by being on the inside. If he was a donk, what he says could be written off as being an obama/donk party loyalist. But as a Republican,,,now that really gives the msm something to put their teeth into.

“I don’t know why he doesn’t just join the Democrats. “

Because he's a plant, and he's more effective for them as the ‘rogue’ Republican.

Because far too many supposed Republicans bought into the idea that ‘electability’ is the paramount reason to chose someone as candidate...

...instead of choosing a candidate based on who is the closest to their own political beliefs.

It was MCain who came charging back to Washington in the 2008 campaign to oppose TARP, only to turn around and support it. That was the watershed moment in the campaign and McCain sided with the establishment doomsayers and con-artists. His current statements are consistent with his past positions - the charade of conservatism, masking a core of RINO/Dem convictions. McCain’s motto is “talk loudly and poke a stick in the eye of conservatives”

And the GOP wants us to do it all over again with these RINO’s

Dude.

The GOP IS "these RINOs".

Didn't your grandma ever tell you that you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear?

A Balanced Budget Amendment, if one ever is introduced and ratified, will have to originate with the States.

Any BBA which could possibly pass Congress would not, could not, do what we need.

A much better idea for the States would be to introduce and ratify a Sound Money Amendment.

Restricting Congress' power to borrow money, together with specifying permissible monies and abolishing the "Federal" Reserve would do what a BBA could never do.

He’ll be just like Ted Kennedy. Only death will drag him away from destroying this country.

John McCain's 2008 presidential run was definitive proof of the rank and file Republican’s need to summarily reject the entire leadership of the party.

Agreed. If not for Palin, McQuisling would have lost 49 states.

I actually went into my local Party HQ and asked for a Palin bumper sticker. They gave me one that said "McCain/Palin." I aske the girl at the desk to wait a second I went to my car, retrieved a box cutter and cut McCain's name off the sticker and told the desk girl,"You can keep this part."
