I have noticed a lot of my fellow conservatives are getting down on John McCain & Sarah Palin and our chances of winning in Nov given the latest polls and screams of delight from the left. I too have issues with some of McCain's policies and choices and have fallen victim to the media’s epitaph of John McCain, especially recently. Like it or not however, at this point in the campaign we must play the hand that was dealt us. This is a campaign that we can and must win! John McCain is a proven fighter and his heart is not to be discounted. As conservatives, we do a great job at satire and bringing the truth to one another. I am sure many of you do the same when surrounded by those of other persuasions. Now is the time to redouble our efforts and become McCain volunteers. We need courage, energy, support and most of all, unity. What is at stake is nothing short of the future of America.
Barrack Obama and his liberal friends have given us plenty of powder. We are a right of center country with the majority of Americans considering themselves conservative, yet the mainstream media is falling over themselves to crown Barrack Obama President of the Universe. His liberal beliefs are not just the opposite views of George Bush, they are opposite of Main Street America. He has no history of working to lower taxes. Tax payers will without a doubt shoulder the burden of his socialist agenda. His partisan views will only increase with a Democratic congress and his history of not working across the aisle will continue unabated. John McCain supports tax cuts because he knows raising taxes during an economic downturn is a recipe for disaster. McCain also knows that to bring true change to Washington, one must be willing to work with members of each party or else fall victim to partisan politics that leads to bickering and gridlock.
OUR candidate is a man with honor and a sense of duty. He has always answered the call of his country. His opponent believes that America is no longer the city on the hill of which Reagan spoke, he said as much in the first debate. Barrack Obama believes that by making concessions against hard won American victories in Iraq, that the world will once again love America. He does not understand that America's friend has and always will be freedom, and that those who love and hope for freedom have not changed their views of America. Terrorists and those who cannot stomach the necessary sacrifices to keep freedom alive are the ones that Obama is referring too when he says that America is no longer revered by the world. Celebrity status is fine for Hollywood, but it does not represent the values that you and I or Main Street America share.
Some of Obama's biggest supporters are men like Rev Wright and William Ayers. These men hold the most despicable view of America; one has disgraced the pulpit by blaming 9-11 on our government and the other is an un-repented perpetrator in the bombing of the US Capitol. Barrack Obama is guilty by association. These associations are not errors in judgement, they are direct indictments of Obama's character. Any man that will stand by those who curse America must not be allowed to become President. To do so would be an utter disgrace to all freedom loving Americans and especially to those who have and do wear the uniform.
My friends, this is the time for us to unite. We must not take for granted the power we have to vote and to help educate those who do not understand the severity of the day or the malice of the media. I am confident that provided a truthful and balanced viewpoint of both candidates, the majority of Americans will not support the radical and liberal ideology of Barrack Obama. We must not make this election a referendum against the failures that have gotten us to this point. The Democratic Party has successfully deceived many voters into believing that they are a party for moderates, yet their leadership appoints the most liberal members of their party to the highest levels of government. Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco district or Ted Kennedy’s friends on Martha’s Vineyard do not share the moderate views of voters living on Main Street. We must educate these voters who believe they are voting for a moderate that the ultra liberal Democratic Party does not represent their beliefs. To paraphrase President Reagan, it is not necessary for them to leave the Democratic Party as it has already left them. There must be no place for the distorted views and socialist agenda of Obama in our nation’s highest office. We must support Sen McCain and together set out to bring true change to America. Thank you.
I hate to break the bad news to you buddy, but McCain lost the election last night with his vote of the pork laden socialist bailout bill.
I was actually enthused when he picked Palin.
However, that has been more than offset with his support of this Pork Laden Bailout bill.
He said in his first debate he would name names when pork bills came to his desk if he were elected President. Where is his leadership now naming names on this Bailout bill, which has grown to a Fat Pork Bill?
Why isn’t McCain maming names now?
Hence one of the policies I don’t like. Heck, I wish he would have named names. The fact that he didn’t is not going to sink the election though. The issue is change and who can sell it the best. McCain = Bush or McCain = reform and Obama = inexperience/liberalism/socialism.
That will be the key from tonight.
Biden bloviated all over the place and will be shown to have made glaring misrepresentations on McCain's record and his own.
But all of that pales in comparison to Sarah's ability, even when cheerleading for McCain, to connect with the American people in her style, in her wording, and in her demeanor.
I have the same truck with a McCain stick and stock tires:(
Flowmaster dual exhaust?
Sounds like the Biden blow hard exhaust. I just have the standard 4 dr Z-71
Stay positive!
Remember that the purpose of media polls is to influence people
... not to reflect their views.
Remember that the media’s entire effort is
to suppress our votes
by deceiving ... misinforming ... and manipulating us.
Donate and volunteer. My neighborhood has twice as many McCain signs versus Bush 2000/2004. My neighbors are smart and most have money. They know the marxist will take everything you got along with your kid’s future.
They have already started. This October Suprise market meltdown was Obama and Soros.
Harry Reid today was saying an insurance company was failing is more proof. He later said he made a mistake after insurance stock got pounded. He was trying to cause more panic. Wake up.
If Obama gets in there will not be another 2 or 4 years to vote them out. Your state will learn all about ACORN when your votes are stolen in 2010, 2012 and beyond.
Fannie & Freddie were the biggest fraud in history and they are not done. McCain and Repubs tried to stop them. Whatever you have - the marxist want it and they will get it. The House firewall of Republicans will not be able to stop them.
I am not crazy about McCain but we can fight with him and the GOP after he wins. We can win that fight because Sarah will be on our side.
Sarah has guts and it is time to fight, donate and volunteer. Donate and volunteer - get out the vote and ignore the polls.
I have something that a lot of you don't have....a pink Sarah Palin "Palin Power" baseball cap......whoooooohooooo
Let me put the amount of money the Bailout will cost.
(Not Counting the additional 150 Billion the Senate Added In Pork.
The Iraq/Afgan War to date has cost 10 Billion
So These socialists are asking for 85 times what the war has cost.
If this passes and u think there will be money for a tax cut, you are living in lala land
