John McCain swings right in desperate bid for political survival

One-time moderate Arizona senator keeps step with the Tea Party and gets tough on illegal immigration.

John Ladd points to the piles of empty water and Coke bottles, a yellow blanket and numerous other bits of debris abandoned on his cattle ranch in Cochise county, near Tombstone, Arizona. The sprawling estate, stretching 10 miles along the US-Mexico border, is a favoured route for those making the illegal, dangerous and often fatal, journey to what they hope is a bright new future.

Ladd recalls waking up one morning in 2004 and finding about 900 Mexicans milling about on his land. "You could not go anywhere without seeing one and the border patrol was screeching around everywhere," he says.

This is Wild West country, a land of mesquite and sagebrush, of Apache trails and re-enactments for the tourists of the OK Corral shoot-out. The ranch, and other crossing points like it, lie at the heart of the immigration debate that has gripped the US over the past week. That debate is anchored to Arizona's controversial extension of police powers in dealing with immigrants.

Already the subject of international attention, it is threatening to consume one of America's best-known politicians, John McCain, former PoW, senator for Arizona, and Republican choice for a doomed campaign against Barack Obama in 2008.

McCain is up for re-election for a fifth term in the Senate and the resurgence of the immigration issue is potentially disastrous.

Ladd, who voted for McCain in the past, now feels betrayed and is not planning to support him in the Republican primary in August.

“There was an article today about Hayworth and the birther crap

MSM just doesn’t write stuff they can be sued for”

LMAO!!

Ever try to sue a network news organization if you are a public figure?

Remember the General Westmoreland VS CBS??

Don’t make me laugh, you imbicile!

Take your anti-Hayworth propaganda somewhere else.

Listen dickface, the Arizona Republic is a left wing newspaper that despises Hayworth. They are openly for amnesty, and have stated it on many occasions.

You are trying to mislead out of state FReepers, so they will get discouraged, and not donate to Hayworth. You are low life scum.

[marajade]

They’re quoting him in the article.

[Diggity]

Good riddance to him if he loses.

[MaggieCarta]

KFYI the local Phoenix radio talk show touched on whether he’d go as independent and the feeling amongst the people I heard discussing it was yes.

Thanks!

Guess what....McCain’s old buddy and Mexican Dual citizen Juan Hernandez has put together a coalition of ‘conservatives’ for amnesty, including Jeb Bush.

[snip] April 29, 2010.....I just got off a conference call put on by Conservatives for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. Juan Hernandez of Fort Worth, a leader of the group, describes it as a “loose coalition” of conservatives who started about a year ago to have a private conversation about immigration reform. Now, Conservatives for CIR is going more public. Hence, it’s call today.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was supposed to be on it, but he had a conflict. However, a number of evangelical and business leaders were on the call, including former Bush 43 Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez and the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference.

Hernandez actually served as a cabinet member in the Mexican Government.

Juan Hernandez is an enemy of the United States.

FROM THE ARTICLE: for those making the illegal, dangerous and often fatal, journey to what they hope is a bright new future.

Maybe someone should get the word out that the ‘bright new future’ is a thing of the past ?

Hernandez actually served as a cabinet member in the Mexican Government.

The presence of Juan Hernandez in the background of the McCain campaign tells us that John McCain is as weak on border security now as he ever was. Hernandez, a dual citizen of the US and Mexico, and past member of Vicente Fox’s Mexican government, is as open borders as you can get.

McC' sucked up to amnesty-pusher Hernandez (as Americans woke up to 5 million toxic mortgages fraudulently doled out to illegals that poisoned our economy forever). Talk about pandering-----McCain said he chose Hernandez because he agrees with his positions.

Juan Hernandez was born in Dallas and decided as an adult to become a dual-national Mexican citizen. His last verifiable job was serving in Mexican President Vicente Fox's cabinet as Vicente Fox's "American Reconquista Director."

Hernandez then worked for Bush hater George Soros' international foundations---(one such foundation published Hernendez's book that taunts Americans).

Hernandez believes all illegal Mexicans and Mexican-Americans in the USA should become dual citizens and consider themselves Mexicans first, "to the 8th generation."

The "New American Pioneers" proclaimed in his book are the illegal alien invaders he urges to become settlers in the USA for "Reconquista"---the plan to take back the SW.

Also backing McCain is panderer Billy Kristol (Fox News pundit) his daddy and their crowd---who are cheerleaders for the current admin's most destructive polices---including the twice-failed illegals amnesty plan.

“Juan Hernandez was born in Dallas and decided as an adult to become a dual-national Mexican citizen. His last verifiable job was serving in Mexican President Vicente Fox’s cabinet as Vicente Fox’s “American Reconquista Director.”

I watched Hernandez state on national television that he is for the North American Union, and the “Amero” to replace the dollar within 10 years or so.

McCain? This is your point man for amnesty?

You traitorous ba$tard!!

Roger Hedgecock was talking about Juan and his new ‘conservative coalition’ last night.

You can bet he’s still McCain’s main ‘hispanic’ outreach guy.

A guide to May Day rallies protesting Arizona’s immigration law

[snip]

Arizona’s immigration enforcement law has raised the ire of groups fighting for the right of illegal aliens to break the law. Fueled by derisive comments made by the American president, Barack Obama, protestors are aiming to send a clear signal to Arizona and to the rest of the nation by organizing protests in as many as seventy cities across the nation on May 1st, also known as May Day or International Workers Day. Here are some highlights from the protests.

SEIU

Known for its violent confrontations during last year’s town hall meetings about health care, SEIU has emerged as a key organizer of rallies in at least 16 cities including Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Seattle, Houston, New York City, and Washington D.C. President Obama and members of his regime have strong ties with SEIU.

The Slogan

An emerging slogan surrounding the protests is “We are all Arizona.” Indicating solidarity with those who believe that Arizona does not have the right to establish and enforce laws. The slogan apparently does not account for the nearly 70% of Arizona residents and 60% of all Americans who support the Arizona law.

Enforcement

The congregating of illegals during the May Day protests seem to be fertile ground for federal immigration enforcement efforts. However, no enforcement activities are anticipated at these events.

I met Roger, Darrell and Hunter at a conservative forum at the Marriott, Newport Beach back in 2000. All three are great guys. I used to listen to Roger on his afternoon radio show quite often when I lived in Los Angeles.

Thanks for the info.

The communists and LaRaza had no trouble brainwashing these

morons, did they?

In the back of the hall, they’re showing a video of a dollar being dragged through a trailer park. And in large print it says, “The winner gets the use of ten free day laborers for a month.”

MeCain feels warm fluid going down his leg, but nobody notices...
