Read it and gag.

I wonder if Grant will make a run for governor? I had just read that Tom Horne was thinking about running for gov. but will stay put where he's at for now.

Just more proof that the MSM's pick is McCain.
Remember, they supported John Kerry, another traitor.

McCain is for McCain, period.
He is NOT a conservative.
He does NOT understand macroeconomics.
He does NOT understand foreign policy, in the best interests of the United States.
He does NOT understand the importance of;
Tort Reform,
Tax Reform,
Social Security Reform.
Other than that, I do respect his service in Vietnam and his time as a POW.
The balance does NOT qualify him for POTUS.

McCain has the right stuff all right and plenty of it. But the problem is it's only useful if you want to fertilize a garden.

If McCain runs as our anybody but Hillary candidate, we will suffer the same fate as Kerry. McCain can also "gum" things up if he runs as an Independent.

McCain's ego wants him to run but his health will preclude him.3 years is a long way away.

The key to George W. Bush's presidency has been the fact that he doesn't give a happy rat's hindquarters what the media say about him.

Can anyone claim with a straight face that this is true of John McCain?

Give him two months as POTUS and he will be winning major Strange New Respect from the Old Media. He would start with Standing Up to the Christian Right on social issues, and then raise taxes. Bet on it.

I will NEVER vote for McCain. I don't see him as any better than a Gore or a Kerry or even a hillary. He's a Demoncrat in drag.

I would never vote for McCain. Period. He's an ego maniac who cares only for himself. Not to mention that he's as big of a freedom grabber as Feinstein.

Arizona Senator John McCain should be the next president of the United States of America.

No.

You want this piece of crap to be our next President?

KEEP READING!

(SNIP)
John McCain is, and as such, his character can and should be examined.

What is the real story behind his days as a POW? The U.S. Veteran Dispatch had an article in June of 1996 entitled "POW Songbird McCain Wrongly Described As A Hero." It recounted numerous instances where John McCain violated the Military Coda of Conduct, which specifically orders American personnel to give the enemy no information other than name, rank, serial number, and date of birth. It requires that they accept no favors from the enemy, and to make no written or oral statement disloyal to the United States.

The fact is, in exchange for better medical treatment, McCain violated this code four days after being captured on Oct. 26, 1967. In a U.S. News and World Report interview dated May 14, 1973, two months after he was released, McCain admitted that he exchanged military information in exchange for spending six weeks in a hospital normally reserve for North Vietnamese Military officers.

U.S. government records show that less than two weeks after he was taken to the hospital, Hanoi's press began quoting specific military information, including the name of the aircraft carrier on which McCain had been based, information about the location of rescue ships and the order of which his attack was supposed to take place. The records demonstrate, according to the Dispatch article that McCain continued to collaborate with the Communists after he recovered from his injuries. He did a number of propaganda broadcasts that were aimed at destroying the moral of American servicemen fighting in the jungles of South Vietnam, On June 4, 1969, a U.S. Wire Service story reported one of McCain's broadcasts.

The service reported "Hanoi has aired a broadcast in which the pilot son of the U.S. Commander in the Pacific, Adm. John McCain purportedly admits to having bombed civilian targets in North Vietnam and praised medical treatment he has received since being taken prisoner."

McCain committed other breaches of the Code of Conduct by meeting with and giving interviews to foreign news reporters and anti American delegations.

McCain admits to talking with numerous high-ranking North Vietnamese leaders, including General Vo Nguyen Giap, their Minister of Defense.

He also did a cozy interview over coffee, oranges, and cake wish a Cuban psychiatrist, which took place in the Hanoi office of the Committee for Foreign Cultural Relations.

He failed to "evade answering questions to the utmost of his ability;" by actually conversing with his interviewer in Spanish.

Perhaps these are some of the reasons why John McCain hip been so instrumental in discounting any suggestion that live prisoners of war still languish in Southeast Asia. It certainly does explain to me why he traveled to Hanoi in May of 1993 with soon-to-be Ambassador to Vietnam Pete Peterson, and convinced the Communist leadership to agree that they would NEVER MAKE PUBLIC THEIR INTERROGATION FILES OF AMERICAN POWs.

It should have made him ineligible to sit in judgment of those men who still wait for freedom. I believe it clearly makes him morally unfit to ever lead this nation, to be the Commander of all our armed forces someday.

They don't really want a President McCain. They just want a divided Republican party, and McCain is the man to do it.

The Republican nominee will be the person who puts together the best campaign organization and lets them do their job.

McCain's political chief, John Weaver, doesn't compare to Karl Rove, but he's better than someone who uses his little sister as his campaign manager.

I hear Congressman J.D. Hayworth is leaning toward a run for governor.

McCain came to Colorado a few years back, WORKING FOR THE ANTI-GUNNERS!! They used him in TV commercials, bombarded us with his picture in our mailboxes. He was their poster child.

I see in McCain a man with no reguard for the Constitution, who will cuddle up to those trying to destroy our rights.

NO to McCain.
