"how do we rid ourselves of these communist loving Pseudo Republicans once and for all"

Start by telling any Lib family or friends that they are dead to you and then shun them. That's how.

Here’s a classier rebuke per Oliver Cromwell,

“Depart, I say; and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!”

>>>>>McCain should just leave the Republican Party and admit what he really is, a Democrat or liberal independent.<<<<<<

IMO being THE “Maverick Republican” gives him some sort of demented satisfaction.

I wish that Arizona would elect a conservative for this seat.

Man needed to insure he had an income.

In all honesty that is as it should be.

How many more years do we have to put up with this Maroon in the Senate?

Not sure what you are trying to say to me.

The point of my post was that it should be law that when you run for POTUS, you resign any political office you currently hold

If he wasn’t a paid operative for the Democrat party he is even dumber than we think because that means he did his own party in for free.

1 - He screwed up the primaries so Republicans could not field the strongest candidate.

2 - He ran a terrible campaign, failing to capitalize on Obama’s weaknesses and throwing a monkey wrench into his own campaign whenever it started to do well.

3 - His own staff sabotaged Sarah Palin, keeping her off the campaign trail, putting her into the most difficult interview forums, preventing her appearance on more favorable shows, leaking information designed to cast doubt on her candidacy and blunting her effectiveness.

4 - Repeatedly praising and complementing Obama during his own campain speeches, offsetting any positive impact.

5 - Ignoring, opportunities to act on his rhetoric such as claiming to be a Pork Buster then voting for the biggest pork bill ever passed in the Senate.

6 - Not defending Sarah Palin post election when his own campaign members trashed her in the press.

Truthfully, I believe that he and his insiders were stunned (and perhaps a bit envious) at Sarah’s instantaneous popularity and the tremendous boost she gave to the campaign. That would account for their strange actions that seemed to effectively hold her back and undermine her credibility and effectiveness.

**Sen. John McCain, D-Ariz.,**

When the Senate is not in session, the Maintenance team should move McLAME’s Desk over to the OTHER SIDE of the Aisle!

I was joking that McLame needed to keep his senate job for the paycheck. His wife is worth a hundred million.
Also I think everyone should have to resign whatever office they hold to run for a higher one.

Remember how Cain slew Abel? Well McCain has just slew any chance of ever being called a Republican again.

Ahh, yeesh, I missed it.....Well, if God is watching, and I'm sure he is, McCain will be out of that job in 2010 and he'll need his rich wife's money.
