McCain has also gone on record in favor of beefing up our defenses against ballistic missiles, while Obama opposes such programs.

For us:

1. If Obama wins, it will be the end of freedom in America, and we’ll become a socialist country.

2. McCain’s VP pick appears to stand strong on conservatism.

Culture of life: the hidden issue in the 2008 election. Never has someone on the ticket so unequivocally represented the culture of life.

I just watched a bootleg copy of Path to 9/11. I now know why the Democrats and the Clintons have banned it.

With the clear resolve of Sen John McCain for our security and "No Blink" Gov Sarah Palin on the team contrasted against the wimpy approach Barry has taken to those who hate us - sitting down with our enemies - and Joe Biden's ever-errant mouth and defective mind, it would be a landslide victory for the Republicans upon viewing this movie.

I feel physically ill after watching it, thinking about the possibility of a Democrat win in November.

Not only remembering the heroism, but irresponsible and criminal acts of those like Jamie Gorelick and Sandy Burglar and the stupidity of Madeline Albright makes me proud, sad, mad, and nauseated all at once.

There is NOTHING....NOTHING presidential about Barry. I could not contemplate Barry making decisions (with Joe) if we were attacked again under their watch. I am quite scared of who Barry would have as his cabinet members, and terrified of who is in his 'kitchen cabinet'.

'nuf said.

“I am a lifelong Republican

Who cares?

If you cannot figure out the differences between McCain and Obama, you really shouldn’t be voting anyway.

So you don’t get 100% of everything you want? Well, stop crying and take your marbles and go home.

I am not voting for McCain because I am a republican, I am voting against Obama because I am an American.

Nobody knows what the next 4 years will bring; but if past is prologue, we can assume that there will be at least a couple of major circumstances which will plumb the depths of our concept of American exceptionalism. These will be tests of our resolve.
Obama would fail them because he does not believe in American exceptionalism. He, rather, thinks of himself as a citizen of the world, with America as merely a fairly good place to live, but needing a more European ethos.
McCain will pass them because he, at his core, is an American patriot.
I know that my rejoinder is not policy-specific; but that is mainly because my clairvoyance is not quite event-specific. So I go to the bottom line — the candidates’ cores.

Amen, FRiend. I've rarely seen a bigger bunch of crybabies in my life than some of the "not voting this election" crowd.

Let’s see, Obama is a gun grabber. He went to a racist church for 20 years that gave a lifetime achievement award to Louis Farrakhan. He is friends with William Ayers, a unrepentant terrorist. You add higher taxes, more spending and less security on to that and the choice is simple.

McCain will remain strong and on the offensive in the War on Terror. mcCain will support a culture of life and will place judges on the Supreme Court who will finally, after 36+ years of holocaust, overturn Roe V. Wade, McCain will lower taxes, McCain is much more apt to hold congress to the line and reduce spending, McCain will hold the line much stronger ont he 2nd amendment, McCain will move directly and positively towards energy independence, and, our enemies will fear McCain.

HAving siad that, McCain, unless he changes drastically will cotninue to be an embrassement and failure on immigration and campign finance. we will have to fight him and hold his feet to the fire on both issues.

Obama will fail in all of the above. He is a militant anti-American and marxist and is not worthy of any traditional, dedicated American support who holds the foundational values of this Republic dear.

The enemy is rapidly advancing and over running our position.

And you refuse to fire your weapon because of a single issue that had nothing to do with party politics and would let the enemy have their way.

What you are doing has nothing to do with courage or principle. It simply advances the enemy agenda which you may be forced to live with.

Will you complain so loudly about so little if Obama wins? Not really, there will be far greater things for you to complain about if that happens.

McCain was not my frst choice, but this election because the Bush administrations standing I think you have to make the best selection possible. Barr is not a serious option and although I like him, unless he becomes a REAL possibility I believe those who vote for him will give us Obama.

You post that you are for government operated Social Security but then say you don’t like socialism. Very hypocritical. Where in the US COnstitution does it even give the government the right to operate such a scheme?

P.S. I am for abolishing SS as it is nothing but a 15% tax on incomes, which the people can do much better for themselves withn that 15%. The depression is over and SS was to help people through it.
