We must reach across the isle, don't you get it, McCain warned us we would lose if we didn't, of course he was here when he said that.

I just watched a video at Pamela Geller’s Atlas Shrugs blog of then-candidate Barack Obama telling 7 outrageous lies in a row in 1minute and 46 seconds time, which helped propel him into the White House. This has to be a world record for a politician lying.
The main reason that he is in the White House is because the Republican Party and Libertarian Party put him there. That is right, not the Democrats, they simply believed his lies, but we could have stopped his election. We all have our work cut out for us if we want to get him out of there.
During the 2008 election, we had Vietnam veterans who refused to vote for John McCain over the POW issue. They either did not vote or voted for a Libertarian. Thus, Barack got another vote for each one. We had pure conservatives who would not vote for McCain, because he is regarded as a RINO by many. Bu the biggest problem were the republican congressmen, who along with their cohorts across the aisle helped strengthen the give-it-up attitude with the republican party, because the only difference between most congressmen is the color of buttons they wear. Added to that were those self-centered unprincipled, republican congressmen who got caught with their hands in the cookie jar and made the party look corrupt.
If republicans continue to whine, spend all their energies trying to prove Barack Obama is an illegal alien, cry out “The sky is falling!” with every email rumor that comes along, act apathetic about who represents us, or switch to the libertarian party, which can only weaken our vote again, then we will once again hand the election to the democrats.

Whoops, it nominated a far-left candidate! And continues to back that twit with money and endorsements.
Seems to me you need to spend more time lecturing the GOP 'leadership' and less time lecturing the base.

We must be united. We must stand unwavering on conservative values. We must toss the republican wimps out of congress who do not. We must lead the charge to prosecute every republican politico who gets caught breaking the law. And we must have and support a strong Ronald Reagan-like conservative who will lead with power and vision, which brings me to our enemies, along with our allies in France, Germany, Japan, Latin America, and the mideast.
Our current President does not speak for America when he apologizes for our actions. He speaks for a lunatic fringe who forgot how we became the world only remaining superpower. We are going to take back our congress in 2010 and White House in 2012, and every mistake Obama makes will be corrected so know this now.
When those of you in Germany who are elitists silently allowed Adolph Hitler to rise to power with his own hollow promises of Paradise then slaughter 6 million Jews, we were the ones who drove him into the bunker to blow his brains out, while his closest followers either died or ran to South America to hide and pass on their ridiculous ideas to new leaders growing up there.
When those of you in France who are elitists became some of the world’s best culinary artists and wine-makers, it was so you could treat conquering generals like kings hoping they would not decimate your population. We do not apologize for your countrymen we saved after Normandy, St Mere Eglise, and the many other fields in France where we saved your people and passed out candy bars to your kids, like our soldiers always do. We do not apologize for that.
When those of you in Japan who hated our system so much, you committed one of the worst most dishonorable sneak attacks in world history at Pearl Harbor, we not only destroyed your country almost teaching you a valuable lesson, then we helped you rebuild. And that system you hated then has enriched your lives now for decades and made you a world superpower. We won’t apologize for that either.
Saddam Hussein used to put political dissidents into a giant meat grinder feet first and watched their bloody death while laughing with his friends and relatives. He used poisonous nerve gas to kill thousands of Kurds. His neck broke at the end of his hangman’s rope, but first we treated him humanely for lice and fleas after his miserable existence in his filthy desert hideout. His sons, both heroin addicts, used to have bodyguards grab Iraqi women and girls at random off the streets wherever they shoes and raped them. American soldiers blew their miserable brains out. Now Iraq is a fledgling democracy which has held free elections in the middle of the world of Islam. We will not apologize for that either.
Germany, France, England, Russia, Central America, South America, Saudi Arabia; How many of you countries had to build a fence along your border to keep people out, not in? China, when Mao Tse Tung was killing 70,000,000 of your people how many immigrants traveled from foreign shores to try to come to your country to make a better life for themselves?
You see, Barack Obama does not even realize what made America so great and is now trying to destroy it from within, but our Constitution is much stronger than any man and so is our resolve. Our country, not any of you other countries, has always been there with humanitarian assistance all over the world whether it be flood, tidal waves, famines, earthquakes, fires, bloodbath, and other disasters. In fact, many in our country trying to prove we grew from some of our terrible mistakes such as slavery and racism actually helped elect Obama simply because he was a minority, instead of first learning what true naiveté lurked under the disarming smile and Golden Gift of Gab. Our bad. We will correct it, and then we will correct all the mistakes made, including letting you enemies of America feel you are safe from the talons of the eagle. We will be coming to get you. This I promise.
Every once in a while, we need a little wake-up call to remember what America is all about. Republicans, Libertarians, and right-leaning independents have been reminded and will now unite and be string again. We will win and be America again, one nation, under God, and nobody will tread on us and use our own system and our own goodness to defeat us again, not even our own.
GOP blaming the base again. lol.
Of course you are going to step on some toes so expect flak.)
Very well said....
The McCain/Graham RINO wing of the GOP.
Meanwhile the solidly Conservative work of Pence, Cantor, Borun, Session, Palin, Inhofe, Cobrun, Wilson et al gets dies a cold lonely death due to lack of public support.
When are Conservatives in the Media going to learn? It is not enough to simply stand against things, you also have to support things.
We must reach across the isle, don't you get it, McCain warned us we would lose if we didn't, of course he was here when he said that.
Not so great in my opinion. The Republican grass roots is NOT going to line up behind the next near-Democrat the that Republican leadership tries to shove down our throats.
No, rather, we are going to take the leadership of the party and shake them by the napes of their necks until they get it.
We don’t need more Democrats, and we don’t need Democrat enablers. We need FIGHTERS. Constitutional purists who will fight tooth and nail, in the streets and in the houses, on the rooftops and in the chambers of government, engaging everywhere, all the time, relentlessly until we have our country back and and the usurpers of power are hounded and harassed, beaten and defeated, and even in some cases prosecuted and jailed for the treasons they have committed.
That’s what we need, not lectures about the futility of resistance.
Isn't it the Real Conservatives who are giving the RINO GOPz the real trouble?
I wish he'd leave the libertarians out of it... ;0)
President Jack Ripper McCain would have been just as bad as Obama.
Get out the pooper-scooper.
Captain Kirk is right, as was Glen Beck. The Tea Party movement & frustration @ the town halls wouldn’t have existed had McCain won. Most “conservatives” would have just chilled out being happy that a Republican was in the White House, thinking that America dodged a bullet.
Obama is rushing the USA towards socialism, the GOP is in a coma and a small contingent of Beck freaks and airhead freaks believe Obama-Biden is better for America then McCain-Palin.
God help us all.
Amen to that, old friend.
McCain would not be waffling over Afghanistan.
McCain would not be trying to shut out media outlets.
McCain would not have signed the stimulus bill.
McCain would be a veto block to health care reform.
He still would have been a RINO pain in the arse in many areas, but he would have been a distinct improvement over Obama in many, many others that matter.
However, the McCain situation is no comparison to what we are seeing in New York. McCain does share some ground with the GOP base. That nitwit libtard (she's too far left to even call her a RINO) does not.
You know, you have a lot of nerve.
I just recently listened to an east coast republican cite
his reason for voting for cap and trade was data and the promise
of Green jobs from the Center for American Progress.
Now when Republicans start quoting Communist front
organizations like Mr Podestra and all time American
Traitor / CAP founder Morton Halpern and their Soros funded
CAP I believe their in cahoots together.
Gingrich recently said Scozzafava’s election could be the start of a “new Republican Revolution” that mirrors the “1994 Republican Revolution.”
Scozzafava, the Pro destruction of marriage and the family
and Margret Sanger award winner the future of the GOP?
I better go down and change my voter registeration
this afternoon! I am regestered with the wrong party.
IT is meatballs like you that are destroying the GOP.
You don't seem to get it. Well, I will fill you in.
It is GOD, FAMILY, and COUNTRY FIRST!
Now when the GOP goes against the above I will not support the GOP.
In fact that's when the GOP becomes indistinguishable from the rat party.
When the GOP sits back or becomes complicit while the
Democrats wipe their backside with not only the Constitution
but or liberties and freedom I not only
question why, I believe they are co-conspirators.
HOWS THAT FOR A CONSPIRACY THEROY? 
McCain was FOR the automaker bailout.

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/09/23/mccain.bailout/index.html
So no... McCain would have signed the stimulus bill.
Have you also forgotten McCain-Feingold which infringes freedom of speech around election time?
Hello, my friend. We agree. Hoffman trumps Scozzafava.
Thankfully McCain showed some real courage in taking Sarah Palin and as you know, a huge factor why conservatives went with the GOP ticket.
On key issues of paramount concern to conservatives and traditionalists, McCain was head and shoulders above Obama. McCain is pro-life, pro-gun, pro-military, pro-spending reform, supported keeping the Bush tax cuts in place and doesn’t support comprehesnive health care reform with a govt option. On top of that, McCain would have made a much better CIC then Obama.
I understand, McCain is hated by many on the right and I’m no fan of his either. Still, it’s a no brainer. McCain-Palin trumps Obama-Biden, today, tomorrow and a 100 years from now.
Sorry, he came out very strongly against it.
And, like I said, he has plenty of RINO problems. However, the point of discussion is the claim by Beck and some Paulites that he would have been as bad as Obama, and to me, that's a no-brainer.
I am an avid fan of The New Media Journal. I think it is the best publication out there because it draws from publications from all over the world...in headlines and commentary. There is my rationale for my posting name.
Now to deal with your weak contention that no one missed anything by your posting an entire piece from a publication that is aligned with a non-profit organization (gee, I guess they really need the hits, huh?!)
By posting the entire piece you not only lifted the entire intellectual property (Oops!), you cheated FReepers out of perhaps seeing something else that would have sparked their curiosity. To say that you didn't is intellectually stunted.
So, jackass, want to air it out in public? Fine. There you go.
No thanks... Keep your pet RINO on a leash.
A man of few scruples.
You are mixing up the bailout and the stimulus.
Pimp it elsewhere RINO.
Maybe you can tell us where the Fedgov gets the power to bailout, prop up, re-organize, or otherwise keep private industries from being subject to the free marketplace?
Or maybe we should go into McCain's Shamnesty bills. Or his lukewarm support of the Second Amendment. Or his reaching across the aisle so many times that he's forgotten which "Gang" he's supposed to be in.
The guy has his finger in the wind so often JFK airport uses him as a weather sock...
For cryin’ out loud, the topic is whether or not McCain would have been just as bad as Obama. I raised points of disagreement that are accurate, while noting that McCain still has plenty of RINO problems. If that is too hard for you to grasp, go ahead and keep berating your own point.
He's not. Never has been.
OK, please tell me what was innaccurate about my statements:
McCain would not be waffling over Afghanistan.
McCain would not be trying to shut out media outlets.
McCain would not have signed the stimulus bill.
McCain would be a veto block to health care reform.
He still would have been a RINO pain in the arse in many areas, but he would have been a distinct improvement over Obama in many, many others that matter.
Now, please point out where I even mentioned free markets or that McCain was a bona fide conservative. Once again, the issue raised is not whether McCain is a conservative, but whether he would have been as bad as Obama as president.
Maybe not as bad as Zero, but no where near "conservative" either.
I disagree, they have a lot of great information at their site.
Though this one topic can be viewed in a few ways. The gop needs to come back to it’s principles.
Im sick of rino’s like Snow.
After crying to me in FReepMail, now you're whining because I had the audacity to post the entire article intact on the internets #1 conservative website. You get something for nothing and you still cry like a baby. LOL
Intellectual property? More like garbage from a libertarian pimping his own blog.
I never said anything about the Republicans "riding to the rescue". I am not into Party politics, & I don't believe that ANY political Party is a Party of freedom.
Following strict adherence to the Constitution is what matters, IMHO....regardless of Party. To hell w/ the Republicats -- follow your Constitutional Oath of Office when you are elcted into Congress!
Captain Kirk said that McCain would have been as bad as Obama. Beck said, McCain would have been worse for America then Obama.
In my response to you, I said, "I've never found that logic convincing at all. In fact, I find it foolish and defeatist. Hoping that the enemy of freedom wins, so Republicans can come riding to the rescue sounds like a case of dumb rationale".
Now, if you don't buy my explanation, tell me why. If you're not even into politics, then why even comment on it? Besides, this goes way beyond tea parties and town halls. More importantly, I don't know any commonsense conservative that would want a hardcore liberal socialist like Obama running the country. McCain with Palin at his side would have been highly preferable to Obama-Biden.
If you saw the show where Beck made his remarks, he also said that if Obama was reelected in 2012, he, Beck, would have been dead wrong and would have to apologize for making such a remark.
Adhering to strict Constitutional principles is fine, but it doesn't win you elections.
I would imagine the author wouldn’t be pleased...but to an arrogant know-it-all like you who insists on propogating non-truths (it ain’t my blog, babe) I suppose it doesn’t matter.
Ego, thy name is a wannabe Reagan Man...keep lumbering through life and making up the rules as you go for everyone else on the #1 Conservative blog...I’m sure Red State would disagree, but hey, you know everything, right Mrs. Kravitz?!
Now THAT'S spoken like a true politician rather than a patriot! Who gives a damn about the Constitution when there are political goals to be net? We in the fedgov have the authority to do whatever it please because they alone know what the "general welfare" of the people really is?
That is reality, pal. If you don’t win elections, you can’t turn principles into policies. Like it or not, politics is part of being human.
Btw, Reagan was a politician and a patriot too. You can be both.
WTF?
This is very incoherent. He goes from blaming conservative voters for not voting RINO... to blaming RINOs... to blaming the French for cooking good food for the Nazis... to Obama being, in essence, a 5th columnists.
What the heck? This author really needs to learn how to organize his thoughts.
All the Republicans had to do in order to win the 2008 elections was to nominate a candidate that would bring and motivate the conservative base of the Republican party. The base is what contributes the money to sway independants... the base are the people who work the campaign offices... the conservative base is key.
So who do we get? Someone that drives away the base.
Thus we lose. And according to the Republican party, it’s the conservative base’s fault... so vote for us when we back someone that spits in your face.
We’re in for a long losing streak as long as that attitude remains.
You’re right, it IS a no-brainer... just not the way YOU mean it. With McLame in the WH, we’d be in FAR worse shape, ‘cause Pubbies in congress would mostly (except for Paul, Bachman and VERY few others) NOT buck their leader, you know, “Party uber alles” and all that, while out here there’d be no Tea Parties, probably, ‘cause people like you’d be saying that it was OK, it’s OUR guy doing us, not THEM. As if being raped by your uncle was one whit better than being raped by the perv down the block.
Given that Mcain would have been dealing with a Dem Congress, your claim doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.
And you think the Rats would OPPOSE him on amnesty, health care, etc.??? Be real. We’d have ALL that stuff already. With almost no Pubbie opposition.
Obama is in favor of those things as well. So just what is your point?
Of course Obambi is in favor. But with McLame we likely would already HAVE them for how many pubbies would buck THEIR guy in the WH?
Last I checked, GOP opposition to amnesty under Bush was quite strong. You really need to start making sense.
OP opposition ... You mean McAmnesty changed his stripes? I hardly think so. And were he the Man his party would give him what he wanted... With VERY FEW exceptions.
