Don't forget that in 1989, in the immediate aftermath of the Stockton shooting by Patrick Purdy, Bush 41 stabbed law-abiding gun owners in the back with his EO banning the importation of "assault rifles." Gun owners didn't forget, and this was a large part of the reason why Bush 41 - that elitist, anti-gun, anti-Israel, one-worlder snob - lost my vote. Were his similar-minded son running for a 3rd term, I can't say for certain that I'd vote for him (oh, I probably would, just to stop Shrillary, but I'd have to wear a gas mask to the polls).
Oh yes, indeed!
Both Bushes failed and betrayed the conservative base that, through the election of Ronald Reagan, gave them the only opportunity to run as Reagan’s successors only to fail miserably and return Democrat Lite RINO Republican traitors back to positions of power they would never have even enjoyed as a minority party had it not been for conservatives like Reagan. As for the other Bush, Jeb; he came out for driver’s licenses for illegals after first opposing them and joined in with his brother, John McCain, Ted Kennedy, Mel Martinez, and the entire RINO infested RNC beltway party apparatus.
I don’t know what the hell is going on in South Carolina, but here in North Carolina we are drowning in a tidal wave of illegal alien parasites, criminals, deadbeats, and freeloaders who are collapsing our social and economic infrastructures at a time in which North Carolinians have suffered immensely from sky high taxes, massive job outsourcing, and over a century of corrupt and despicable Democrat one party governance. Yet the same stupid and repugnant policies peddled by liberals and Democrats is virtually identical to that favored and peddled by Republican RINO idiots like McCain who are ideological brothers of liberals, NOT conservatives.
In the final analysis however, John McCain is not going to be elected President; not because most conservatives find him to be a detestible backstabbing phony liar and traitor, but because simply being a lifelong Washington beltway insider who is the epitome of the entrenched corruption and failure of government will be rejected by most voters on both sides, especially if he goes up against Obama who appeals to many as a fresh new face without the taint of beltway political corruption John McCain himself frequently decries but always exempts himself from. What a phony.
