“At this point, I’m willing to vote for the Pope because I hate McCain that badly.”
Couldn’t agree with you more. I will not forget what John McCain has done to the conservative movement.
On occasion I remind folks not to forget that John McCain, vaunted former military guy and prisoner of war cast aspersions on those heroic Swift Boat Vets who came forth to stop the dishonest John Kerry. Such a loyal military guy he is.
Below, my rant on John McCain and his position as “expert” and final say on the issue of “torture”....said “torture” being waterboarding.
John McCain has no particular problem with torture. Let’s stop kidding ourselves here.
This fine, even-tempered man has had this issue as his own personal mantle much like Maureen Dowd awarded Cindy Sheehan the “absolute authority” title for the loss of her son in Iraq. So too we should give John McCain, a fine, even-tempered fellow, the absolute authority for all things torture. He was a prisoner of war, and using lib logic, thus WE, ie you and I, have no right to say anything as we’ve not experienced torture.
The advent of water-boarding gives the fine, even-tempered John McCain some pause as this action is not viewed as “torture”, in the traditional sense of the word. It didn’t give him too much pause, however, as he carries the award of absolute authority on such mantles proudly and with little logic applied.
It is, after all, NOT about what’s best for this country. It is about getting the fine, very even-tempered John McCain elected president.
Which is how God Himself has ordained.
