That is some dazzling rhetoric, Jane Austen, but none of it is true. He is not a leftie, he doesn't have bad character, he isn't stupid, he doesn't look ill for a 71 year old, he doesn't act crazy, he doesn't want to harm this nation, he doesn't lie like Hillary and on and on. He did not vote against barring terrorists from entering the country. As you and Vigilanteman know but are being obtuse about so you can continue to trash McCain, it wasn't that he supports having terrorists entering the country (what a ridiculous accusation) but that he didn't want such strict restrictions on the number of illegals allowed to stay in the country:
The amendment would have restricted the number of illegal immigrants eligible to remain in the country.
It was defeated 51-46 when Republican Sens. Larry Craig (Idaho), Pete Domenici (N.M.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Chuck Hagel (Neb.), Jon Kyl (Ariz.), Richard Lugar (Ind.), Mel Martinez (Fla.), John McCain (Ariz.), Arlen Specter (Pa.) and George Voinovich (Ohio) voted with the majority of Democrats to defeat the language. Instead, the Senate passed a similar, narrower amendment that would prevent some criminals, including sex offenders and some gang members, from becoming legal residents.
I live in So. Cal. and am currently having to deal with a mayor who is telling us he has to jack up garbage collection fees in order to pay for police and firefighters (we're always only short on cash for them somehow) but that the $1 billion the illegals are costing the city has nothing to do with anything. So the immigration problem IS a problem to me, but I am not fool enough to throw my vote away because I disagree with Johnny about this when the safety of the country is at risk.
