Good luck with that.
America goes down either way. It was nice while it lasted though. Oops, sorry, have to switch back to para en espanol solamente, jefe....
Bump for now. Will read this in the morning.
Sorry. My mistake.
I will not abandon my son and his fellow soldiers by voting for some turd party candidate who has a snowball’s chance to win, and thereby giving the Dims the win by default. If that happens, our military will be gutted. We will lose this war. And the lives lost to this point will have been for naught. And, we will eventually have to do it all over again - only next time it will be much harder with huge casualty loses. No thanks. McCain has earned my vote.
McCain next President of The United States!
God Bless John!
It’s okay.
You and I posted back and forth last year on FR about a 2nd BCT, 10th Mtn Div soldier I knew who died 4/1/07, but you may not recall that.
My family and I still remember him.
See ya-
CD
Praying that you’re correct.
I remember that. I think of all the 52 2nd BCT 10th Mountain Soldiers who lost their lives during the 15 month deployment my son was a part of.
This was SSG Eric Vick, my sister’s ex-boyfriend who she almost married.
But they are all heroes to me.
Take care.
For the last couple years I have been wavering on whether or not I can call myself a Republican. Now I know I cannot without any remaining doubt. I am leaving the party.
Classic politics is that a Republicans moves right to capture the nomination, then moves to the center.
Now that McCain has the nomination, he will move even farther left.
Yes, the McCain we all dislike will now move even further across the aisle, he’ll be sitting in Teddy Kennedy’s lap.
Thanks for abandoning my son and his fellow soldiers. Enjoy your part in helping to elect whichever dim is their nominee, who will then gut our military, lose this war (snatching defeat from the jaws of victory), and steal money from those in this country who work hard to earn a living.
” I would take McCain over Clinton and most definitely over Obama”
Versus Clinton, I would vote for McCain with reservations. Versus Obama, I would vote for McCain without question and without regret.
THEME SONG JOHNNY COMES MARCHING HOME!!!!
Agreed, Seems to me a rather pathetic showing on republicans and I dont blame them one bit.The powers that control these things have got to see that and are crapping in their pants.
Should I leave the Republican Party tomorrow or wait until it is official?
This is not an answer, but merely my observation. My values haven’t changed, but the GOP took a hard left turn a while back. In other words, they left you, and I, long ago.
No problem. My post not pointed at you, just hoping to calm Soldier Dad. I like him, though he doesn’t know me.
