Where are the sections on immigration and energy/global warming?
Thank you for your reply.
On the one hand the purpose of the article was that of
“...examining issues on which Senators McCain and Obama differ significantly...”
My perspective being that - those issues where Sen McCain goes wrong - such as immigration and global warming - are the same as those where his Democratic opponents go wrong as well. But, the issues where Sen McCain is on the mark - almost everything else - are those where his opponents still go wrong. And, as a result, it should be clear that - on balance - it is most likely that, as president, Sen McCain would be much preferable to his opponents.
On the other hand, even on many of those issues - hate crime laws, global warming - where Sen McCain’s positions tips towards those of some liberals, he thinking and intentions are still well ahead of those expressed by Sen Obama.
That should be clear enough from the fact that Sen McCain supports a market based approach to global warming and believes that we have enough hate crime legislation already and are in need of no further efforts in that direction.
Some things to keep in mind:
*the idea of human Perfection - by human efforts - is the enemy of human goodness
*not even the greatest of Biblical personages was - whilst still clothed in flesh - without human weakness
*we are not voting to fill a vacancy amongst the angels
*our children will have to live with the results of this election,
and we fail them when and if we fail to reflect carefully on the balance of good and harm involved in the choices before us, but heed instead the council of the anger and disappointment we may feel over the parameters of those choices.
All the best!
