McCain voted against the Bush tax cuts, saying they disproportionately benefited wealthy Americans and did not rein spending.

I'm confused. Are you sure this is accurate? It took about 30 seconds of fact checking to debunk. Here's the roll call.

I don't mind attacking McCain for his shortcomings, but at least tell the truth. It's not like there's not enough material.

rabs doesn't give a rip about accuracy.

He's on an anti-Republican binge right now, posting a bunch of stuff from leftist sources.

Of course there's more than enough material against McCain, even IF you care about the truth. But if you don't care about truth, you just post things to divide conservatives. That's rabs' MO.

Wrong. Here's the correct roll call. Chafee and McCain were the two proud dissenters to Bush's program. Before you accuse someone of lying, perhaps you should get your own facts straight. Try google - it will give you thousands of references. Here's one confirmation.

Hey, Ohio... best not to jump on the bandwagon of those who don't get their facts straight. A basic google search would give you more than enough information on McCain's opposition to the tax cuts. Sheesh - even if you missed it when it occurred, it was written about over and over during the 2008 Presidential primaries and the 2010 Arizona Senate primaries. And, I have never seen Rabscuttle try to divide conservatives. However, he often does distinguish Conservatives from liberals calling themselves Republicans or Conservatives.

Yes, those tax cuts are just one of the many things McCain flipped on in 2008 to run for president. Heck, he flipped on TARP only after voting for it a few weeks earlier. Talk about a death-bed conversion.
