I wish those here daily (er, hourly) bashing John McCain would take the time to listen to him.

He's a good guy. Give him a listen.


Really?

With this kind of record I have no idea why you say he is a "good guy":


1. Gang of Fourteen (Kept some of President Bush’s best judges from being presented for a vote) See here and here
2. McCain-Fiengold (Assault on Free Speech and Pro-Life
3. McCain-Kennedy (Amnesty for criminal Illegal Aliens)
4. McCain-Lieberman (50 cents a gallon tax)
5. Total support for global warming scam, including the Carbon Cap-and-Trade system. See Here
6. Support for embryonic stem cell research (Murder of unborn babies).
7. Wants to moderate or soften the Pro-Life plank of the GOP Platform. See Here and Here and Here. 8. Wants to close Gitmo and give Terrorists access to our legal system.
9. F grade from Gun-Owners of America.
10. C grade from NRA.
11. 65% score from American Conservative Union in 2006
12. Wants to bail out sub-prime losers (many of which are either illegal aliens or lied on thier applications) with US tax money.
13. Voted against President Bush’s tax cuts (called them tax-cuts for the rich)
14. Flirted with the idea of crossing over to the Dems in 2004.
15. Wants to implement a socialist Health Care proposal that includes providing tax-coffer monies (your tax dollars) to the states to provide Health Care Insurance for those who either refuse to pay for it, or are unable to afford it (mostly illegal aliens).
16. Divorced his wife after he got back from Vietnam. The same woman who remained true to him and raised his kids while he was imprisoned.
17. Refuses to drill in ANWR. See here and here
18. Agrees with Democrats that our Foreign Policy has been arrogant and we need to be more humble.
19. Thinks and states that Pharmaceutical companies are evil
20. Has accepted funding from Soros and Teresa Heinz-Kerry for his institute

So you advocate an intelligent, paralyzing rancor.

Brilliant!

But but but...Iraq! McCain won’t cut & run!! I’ve seen it posted several times on FR that, “the only thing that really matters for this election is Iraq.” So all that stuff is trivial, as real American patriots do not care what happens in America, so long as other countries are supported. That’s the ticket...

Maybe us conservatives are just “agents of intolerance”.

Something that I like about conservativism is that it realistically accepts the world as deeply flawed. Purity does not exist in politics and never will. If you aim for ideological purity and mythologize the past, you will always find the present to be unacceptable.

Great list and I agree, we need to stop rewarding Socialist behaviour within our party.

You may want to put you list up on your about me page so others can access it for posting.

LOL, you again....

If you are going to continue posting your suspect list of grievances with McCain, the least you could do is get rid of #1 on the list. The “Gang of Fourteen” was a scheme of sheer political genius and its inclusion on that list you constantly post (to the point of being obnoxious) makes you look like a moron.
