Who said there was anything wrong with that? My criticism of Viguerie is that he's a pompous,uncharitable litmus-stamp extremist, a holier than thou chronic Chicken Little complainer given to over-the-top negativism who habitually paints decent public servants and fellow conservatives as feckless sell-outs and betrayers.

Are you trying to imply that McCain is a conservative?

Try researching his history before you try that ploy.

Here is a little help to get you started on your research.

Imply McCain is a conservative? Huh?! I didn't try to imply any such thing. Get out of the fever swamp. My remarks had zip-zero-nada to do with McCain and you embarrass yourself with your snap assumptions and smug research tips. My remarks were about Viguerie, a habitual crank who irrationally attacks fellow conservatives. Sound familiar?
