The fact that McCain was nominated to be the Republican presidential candidate is a pretty clear indication that the Republican Party is already too inclusive.

Excellent point!

I have to wonder if amnesty for terrorists and felons is what McCain means by being inclusive. Here are the Senators who voted against the Cornyn amendment , which would have established a permanent bar for gang members, terrorists, and other criminals looking to snag a shamnesty visa. Republicans underlined:

Never forget McCain not only pushed the amnesty bill, he refused to allow exclusions for the worst of the lot. And he unloaded his infamous temper on his mild-mannered senate colleague for having the audacity to introduce this amendment.

Only Kyl's vote was procedural-- to allow him to reintroduce the bill at a later date. Everyone else on this list believes that illegal aliens are more important than Americans, including McCain.

The lead article pretty much tells you what “ails” the so called current Republican Party. That mindset espoused by McCain (and other so called leaders of the party) is exactly what has brought the party to its’ shameful place in gov. today.

It's pretty disheartening to read the likes of this drival from McCain and realize the party has learned NOTHING from 8 years of fiscal insanity spending and trashing the Constitution, and preaching “inclusivness”, as well as the thundering silence from the idiots, (the Republicans) in Congress pretty much tells it all....it's not that we don't want to include as many as choose to join the “Republican Party OF OLD”.... but we don't throw our basic foundation of fiscal conservatism, LOVE of country, capitalism as part of what has made this country stand out tall over the rest of the world....we should NOT throw those principles under the bus just to get people whose hearts are drawn to the far left extremism of what is currently the Democratic Party....we'd be better off without them....as in Specter....he could have taken several more RINOS with him. They vote with the libs and apparently are quite comfortable doing so...we can do without them...we don't need people from the Republican party preaching the lib line...frankly there will not be a whole lot of difference between the parties if we keep on. I am pondering whether or not to stay in the party if the so called leaders are hell bent to drag up the likes of another McCain for us to vote for...if they do...we will find ourselves stuck with the Soc./Marxist guy currently in the white house who is systematically dismantling our country as we know it.

It's time people stop thinking and voting according to their party affiliation, and rather, ask themselves what is good for America...the heck with this one world crap and the promotion of the guy in the white house as some kind of god...for gosh sakes WAKE UP AMERICANS...even with her short comings, our dear land is so much better than any other country to live in....we are so blessed...and that guy in the white house is no better, no brighter than we are....actually my estimation of him, those around him, his wife....all a bunch of Chicago thugs who have the backing of some big money, obviously...evil...that's all I can say.
