Michael Reagan: John McCain Hates Me
townhall.com ^ | January 31, 2007 | Michael Reagan

Posted on 01/31/2008 3:29:48 PM PST by Dems_R_Losers

Until last night, when I watched the Republican debate, I had no idea how much John McCain dislikes me and just about everybody else but Rudy Giuliani, who if you believe The New York Times is a pretty good hater himself.

As I watched McCain and Governor Romney go at it during the debate at the Reagan Library I was struck by the huge gap that separates McCain -- whose contempt for his fellow humans is patently obvious -- and my dad, Ronald Reagan, who had nothing but the deepest affection and respect for the American people.

The feeling is mutual between McCain and me. I don’t like the way he treats people. You get the impression that he thinks everybody is beneath him. He seems to be saying, “I was a war hero, and you had damn well better treat me as your superior.”

He has contempt for conservatives who he thinks can be duped into thinking he’s one of them, despite such blatantly anti-conservative actions as his support for amnesty for illegal immigrants, his opposition to the Bush tax cuts which got the economy rolling again, and his campaign finance bill which skewed the political process and attacked free speech.

Michael Reagan IS A CONSERVATIVE.

MICHAEL REAGAN KNOWS John MC CAIN is no Ronald Reagan.

I hope McCain HATES ME TOO!

I’m also a CONSERVATIVE.

I will also NOT vote for John Mc Cain under ANY circumstances.

I wouldn’t give them the satisfaction of saying they have a “mandate”. Write in.

There is a scene in the latest of Sylvester Stallone's Rambo Films where the title character uses a claymore mine to trigger a larger "device" (I'll not give away more than that) and this reminds me of that part of the movie. Mike Reagan has scored a devastating "KA-BOOM" (I think) to Senator McCain (and frankly, I'm glad - John is an arrogant SOB in my opinion and deserves it).

I like Mike Reagan!

Bwahahahaha! Michael, they are using your Dad, the little nasty liberal turd McCain, doesn’t care. The elites hated your Dad because he was a conservative, and they hate YOU.

When all the little pretend conservatives that inhabit FR and other spots, get screwed over by liberal democrat Juan McCain, they will come home with tails between their legs.

Most conservatives will see them as refuse, the people that lacked the courage to stand up and tell the GOP, no more!

I agree. I hope folks who are thinking of voting for Huckabee realize it is a vote for McCain. Was really sorry to see that some here on FR are going to vote for Huckabee and yet they can’t stand McCain! I hope they realize what they are doing would help give us McCain. Like Mark just said, Huckabee is only in to help McCain.

McLame just wants the nomination so he can roll over and become Hillary’s Sec of Defense.

Repent my as....terisk. Since I never left the Republican Party, I won’t rejoin. The Republican Party left me, and as far as I’m concerned, they are the ones who need to make nice.

>>If we elect McCain, it will laugh my but off when Hillary is elected. At least then we will be able to get behind someone in 2012 maybe we will be done with RINO’s.<<

You are operating under the false assumption that if Hillary is elected, there will be an election in 2012.
