While it's important to keep the terrorists from doing another 9/11 on us, how in the world is McCain ever going to do that when he refuses to secure the borders and leaves us dependent on foreign oil by not drilling in ANWAR? Nice try, but as with almost all of his other positions, his position on fighting global terror without taking those necessary steps is fraudulent.

“Bush at least surrounded himself with a whole bunch of folks I respect. McCain is running around with whiners like Lindsay Graham and a bunch of dinosaurs like (oil-for-food scamster and Hugo Chavez loving) Jack Kemp and Warren Rudman. Bush was a bit stubborn, but nothing like the “I know everything” John McCain.”

Rather disconcerting that the closest thing to a conservative McCain has in his camp is democrat Lieberman.

Kind of curious if you’ve noticed the new lie to equate the Clinton democrats with the Reagan democrats? Twice today I’ve had McQueeg socialists try to tell me it’s a good thing for the Clinton democrats to back McCain. They’re claiming its the same as the Reagan democrats backing Reagan.

Only difference I can find is that the Reagan democrats were conservatives and the Clinton democrats are socialists and marxists.

Nice article ...thanks for posting. While one may not agree with everthing he says......he’s an honerable man with good intentions, a back-bone of steel, and will make an excellent Commander in Chief for our troops.

The outstanding majority of the Reagan Democrats were the Pro-life Christians who now make up the SOCON conservative faction- Now primarily Republicans, as we all know...

You didn't answer the question:

And when he signs us up for the new Kyoto and pushes a $5 trillion dollar amnesty, will you still be cheering?

Do you consider it "winning," if Republicans introduce the same leftist programs as Democrats?

You can bet that every time McCain pushes leftist programs, I'll be doing more than whining. I'll be fighting it as I hope all conservatives will do.

I've been trying to make this connection to FReeper for one time only, to be shunned and ridiculed. (like that stops me LOL!)

Just now are people starting to realize there’s little difference in the top candidates and many commonalities. Two would be George Soros and CFR.

Inflamatory rhetoric instead of logic. Neither Dane nor McCain like the “invasion”...it IS a complex problem that is going to take some time, thought and consensus to sort out. There are 330 million people in the US, many with differnt opinions....we have to reach an agreement without “flamming” anyone that shows restraint or caution or offers differnt perspectives.

So save your “trash-talk” for the basketball court.

I read this and near wept at the lows that this nation has be brought to. We have a nominee that is so disgustingly wrong and treacherous that the only way that he stands to be elected is because the other side is even worse. Hard to believe that is possible, but there it is. Lord forgive me, I hate the Democrat Party even more; this time for not giving America any choice at all.

It is only going to get worse. This corrupt "Two-Party Cartel" has been hijacked by the elites. The cartel only allows 2 of their puppets to emerge via the government media complex. What I think is that these pols know we're in for a big collapse & they might as well grab some dough before it becomes useless.

Name calling shows an inabilitly to have or maintain a logical discussion...it appears that mcCain has a much better command of the English language that many “Fringe Freepers.”

STFU, you do not belong here. You are the kind of people who have destroyed the party and you are complicit in the destruction of our country.

Shame on you for saying what you did to AuntB.

You disgust me. I might add, you are no conservative, so go away.

Well, many of these guys are the same ones screwing up California.
Yet they think they’re qualified to run the country—and the world.

Go figure.

That isn't 'name calling'. It is a direct accusation, easily backed up with evidence from his history and his own mouth.
