Watching Hussein's Speech Tonight: I Am Almost Persuaded To Work For McCain

I just turned on the TV and saw the Obamanation and his speech.

Folks, chills are going up my spine, and my stomach is turning. This guy poses a danger to our future and my child's future. He wants to force the productive in society to turn over their energies to the lazy. He wants to suck up to the nations that sponsor terrorism. He is sickening, and, I have to say...worse than the Clintons.

I had to turn it off.

I have been among those who have ripped into John McCain, and GOD knows I have big time differences with him and his smarmy ways. Seeing the Cult of Hussein tonight, though, puts things in a different light.

What to do? I will think and pray on it. I do appreciate your input, though, fellow FREEPers.

You’re line of thinking is tantamount to saying you prefer a bullet between the eyes instead of one through the heart. Either way you’re just as dead.

No, the correct analogy is that I prefer a slow death by cancer, which may be reversed or placed in remission rather than shooting MYSELF and MY CHILDREN between the eyes.

Do I like McCain? No. Will he be a better bet for the future than Hussian or Clinton. Yes. I have children, I am focused on the future, not making myself feel self-rightous for the short-term.

Your analogy couldn't be more off the mark since the GOP does not have nor has it had over the past several years any remedy to stop or reverse the socialist trend because the party doesn't want to do so.

Who said I was relying on the GOP. I am just using them until something better shows up. And it isnt going to show up by voting for the powerless third parties that are in place. Instead I wait and hope for a groundswell.

[Man50D]

I am just using them until something better shows up.

The GOP has no plan for better candidates if you're waiting for conservative candidates. They are riding the socialist train to expand their voter base. Your wait will be indefinite. In the mean tine the GOP will keep nominating progressively increasing socialist candidates and you'll keep hanging onto the same false hope.

And it isnt going to show up by voting for the powerless third parties that are in place.

Another party will not be a third party since the GOP has merged its political ideology with the socialist Democrats to garner more voters. The are essentially one socialist Republicrat party. Another party will restore the two party system. They are only hapless if people continue to vote for socialist candidates from either party.

Instead I wait and hope for a groundswell.

That will never happen so long as you wait for other people to vote for conservatives. It can only happen if everyone, including yourself, say no more holding onto the fallacy of stopping socialism by voting for socialists but instead actually vote for conservatives.

Don’t forget 17.

[Chickensoup]

Socialism isnt going to be stopped in any voting booth, count on that. We will wait.

[potlatch]

I like your cute little bombs and fire rings, lol.

[Man50D]

Socialism isnt going to be stopped in any voting booth, count on that.

Oh I see. In other words the people are powerless to stop the socialists so we might as well let more socialism infect our society.

We will wait

Wait? Why wait? Wait until when? Wait until we have a socialist President regardless of party affiliation and even larger majority of socialists in Congress after the general election? When does the GOP finally take a firm stand against socialism? Waiting for years is precisely why the GOP has put Americans in the predicament of having to choose between three socialist candidates. Such an open ended question you ask with no strategy to defeat socialism only allows socialism to expand. It's been happening just this way led by the GOP elite for years and either many of the grassroots Republicans don't understand or refuse to accept the fact they have been sold out by party leaders.

I missed his speech propaganda tonight.

Probably a good thing ...

[potlatch]

Lol, yeah. I missed his speech and turned Hillary off. Tired of hearing them and can catch any important comments here or on the news.

Good to ‘see’ you Meek. I am just getting ready to sign off, very tired tonight.

Catch up on the new thread about JimRob.

Take care!

I had to improvise!

Hey Meekster!

whatever....

Yes McCain has a number of positions that are unsupportable. But in an election it’s the rare candidate who is behind all the correct positions. The fact is McCain will defend our country, while the Dems won’t. He is not the perfect candidate (I didn’t get a chance to select one because the issue was settled before Wisconsin primary), but he is far preferable to the Dems. That is all that matters.

[Man50D]

But in an election it’s the rare candidate who is behind all the correct positions.

That's an understatement with respect to McCain. McCain's not even close to being correct on an overwhelming majority of issues.

The fact is McCain will defend our country

The fact is his stance on national security is much weaker than he wants people to know the WOT is not just being fought in Afghanistan and Iraq. it is a global problem including our own borders. It is a fact terrorists have posed and continue to pose as illegal aliens to enter the country and destroy us from within our own borders. Despite that fact, McCain supports granting amnesty for illegal aliens. This position endangers America and makes it easier for terrorists to accomplish their goal.

Wait until we have a socialist President regardless of party affiliation and even larger majority of socialists in Congress after the general election?

Actually I do think that the words of the people are powerless to stop socialism. We have our first truly socialist presidential choices in Hussian and Clinton. As we march toward totlitarinism I refust to bring it on any faster than it is coming. We are already at the crossroads and by doing what I can to choose the least of the evils we buy time for the recognition of the evil and the stopping of it.

you are hysterical if you think McCain will remove ALL individual freedoms. you are getting McCain or Obama as the president. pick one. only babies think they can have everything their way all the time. voted thompson. gave him 1000 bucks. you should have worked harder to get thompson or someone else like him through the primary. now put on your big boy pants and vote for the next best option.

[Man50D]

you are hysterical if you think McCain will remove ALL individual freedoms

That's precisely how socialism works! it has been happening incrementally for years thanks to the socialist Republicrat party. You are in a deep state of denial if you think socialism permits people to have individuals freedoms.

you are getting McCain or Obama as the president. pick one.

Speak for yourself. I'll vote for a conservative any day over a socialist. The fact that you admit your support for a socialist like McCain only illustrates the fact the GOP has slid so far to the socialist left you either don't realize or become apathetic to the process. You are the proverbial frog in the pot of socialist stew not realizing you're being cooked until it is too late.

only babies think they can have everything their way all the time.

Careful now, your frustration of not converting a conservatives is showing. You socialist McCaniac supporters really need a better method than insulting the very people you want to support your comrade McAmnesty.

[indianrightwinger]

You mean when he picks Crist? Hell no.

[driftless2]

Most people, myself included, know that McCain is weak on illegal immigration and a lot of other issues. That’s not the point. The point is that despite all of McCain’s weaknesses he’s still a much stronger candidate than what the Dems have. I’ll repeat: many elections come down to choosing the least worst candidate, not the best. McCain is the least worst. And that might mean with McCain as president, we’re far less likely to see another twin towers or similar catastrophe.
