I have faxed and e-mailed this statement out to local and national news outlets.

A special thank you to all the Freepers who have supported this recall effort is certainly in order. It has been very encouraging to have your support as we fought to preserve our constitutional rights.

I realize there are those who think we should have continued the recall, but those of us who have been out there actively circulating petitions have encountered more and more resistance from Arizona's registered voters. Before September 11th, the committee was confident that we could put on the final push to gather the required signatures. After the "Day of Infamy," the sentiment against McCain, although genuine, has been put on the back burner.

Right now, Congress will have its hands full taking care of the primary function of government - protecting its citizens.

However, should the country get back to normal and John McCain and his liberal friends decide to again attack our rights to free speech and to defend our families, this committee has a long list of reliable volunteers who will be prepared to launch another recall.

For now, proposed legislative threats to our freedom have been trumped - BIG TIME - by Osama's legions of terror.

Good.

It would be especially bad to go after him now when he supports Bush and a full-scale military response.

It would be disruptive and harmful to our country, and I know the "Recall McCain"ers don't want that.

I agree with your decision. I was wondering on the way to work what you planned to do. The answer came quickly.

Thanks for your hard work! Start gearing up for someone to run a primary against him next time he is up for re-election!

If you're looking for something positive to do today, there is a Constitution Day ceremony at the state capitol this afternoon at 4:30PM. Click the link below for more information.

I agree. If nothing else, you were able to remind Sen McCain that he is accountable.

But, I must concede that as much hell as FREEPERs have given McCain over the past few months, it pales in comparison to the kind of hell McCain would like to give Osama and his pals right about now.

I appreciate that Sen. McCain has really rallied behind the President.

Disappointed. Enemies are enemies. Too bad we have to stop recognizing certain enemies of the Constitution (which is the only thing worthy to bind all Americans together) in order to carry out a war against other enemies of the Constitution. I noticed that the media has already used this assault on our nation to bolster McCain. Damn all enemies of the US Constitution! The terrorists sure have done a number on us. It seems to get worse every day. A patriotism based on no foundation is worse than worthless.

Yup. Re: The terrorists, McCain said last week, "May God have mercy on their souls, because we won't."

Exactamundo! I am sure that if Sen McCain could have his way, he would be willing to push the button on a few Cruise missles right about now.

It was a great effort, and a worthy one. Hopefully it will bear greater fruit the nexttime it is necessary.

On a personal note, I'm giving McCain a break just for that one line on the floor of Congress,
"God may have mercy on you, but we won't."
