I will, and thanks.
Been reading DO's thoughts for many years, here.
Know well how deeply the man's passions, love and loyalty to the republic runs.
That's the one & only reason why I introduced DO to the poster, "Philly Nomad". :o)
Based solely on PN's comment something tells me they're not going to get along.
...*a'tall*. ;^)
Say, Phil?
I'd like to introduce you to someone.
"Philly Nomad" meet PhilDragoo.
PN likes keeping a list of candidate McCain's *accomplishment(s)* while in government over the past 20 or so years.
You like keeping lists for candidate McCain too, Phil.
Sure sounds like an acquaintanceship made in Heaven.
...to me. {g}
Based on my recent correspondence w/ DO, and your post to PhilDragoo I think this could become a very interesting thread w/ lots of information to gleen.
McCain’s response: “Well, I think it will.”
If this angry, vindictive old SOB ever makes it to the Oval Office, I can just picture staff meetings, and how he's going to treat members of his cabinet who disagree with him. Didn't we just recently have another president - veteran, military academy graduate - who was similarly unmoveable in his misguided convictions? How did THAT work out?
Yup, it has potential. {g}
Best get it all outa our systems.
...now. ;^)
There is.
Trust your horse sense on this & nothing you hear, read or see from the MSM.
As the bald one likes to say" "The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior" and nowhere is that truer than trying to figure out what the miserable;e quislings are really up to.
We know what the quislings in the MSM are capable of; so, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck...
"My guess is they have the goods on him in some way and know what they have, and how they can use it, will sink his candidacy."
You got it.
Their [read: quisling mediots] modus operandi hasn't changed one iota, in decades.
"We’re being set up, I can feel it in my bones."
Yup, you feel it in your bones.
...& I in my gut. ;^)
I'm sure we'll all be hearing a lot more about this website in the future, undoubtedly from the quisling mediots depending on the timing.
Interestingly enough the local yokel on our Talk Radio station is talking about it.
...right now.
It's a real eye opener. McCain has nothing to worry about.
Fair enough.
Sampley??
Wasn't he the driving force behind the, "Swiftboat" thing, responsible for outing Kerry?
Seems there's a thread running now on this very website.
A cursory look showed some saying it's the gospel truth and you (I think) saying there's more to "the story" than meets the eye.
I'll look at the website.
See for myself what he has, make up my own mind.
Thanks.
"McCain has nothing to worry about."
Well that all depends how [it] is or isn't spun by our pals in the quisling media, right?
You've been around long enough to know whether something's true or not has little --if anything-- to do with the outcome of any issue anymore, these days.
It has all to do.
...with the quisling's *agenda*.
Remember when Clinton was experincing his darkest days in public office? I’m sure you do. We also remember why he was experiencing them too. He was a man who never grew up. He was a man who couldn’t conduct himself as an adult. At one point he bagan to pull historical names out of a hat and deconstruct them. It seemed reasonable to him to tear down our historical figures in order to make himself look better. Did it make him look better? No. Bill Clinton was what he was and those folks who were not around to defend themselves any longer didn’t deserve to have a child in a man’s body attempt to shift his guilt off on them.
Now we have folks who have decided to back the likes of John McCain. And they think that if they can tear down others, it will make their ‘maverick’ look better. Will it? No. You can put 2,137 coats of paint on that pig of yours, and he’ll still be a pig.
John took a chunck of change from a savings and loan operator. Federal investigators were set to swoop in on that operator, and were asked to hold off. Five Senators took part in that effort. John was one of them. They became known as the Keeting Five. Keeting proceded to bilk untold millions from pensioners over the year it took for the regulators to finally force an audit. Peoples lives were destroyed, life savings gone. John McCain skated while they were forced to pick up the pieces, a lifetime’s worth of savings gone.
John has lined up on the wrong side of the isle many times. I don’t need to list them all. Besides, no one can. Anyone who cares will remember some of them. They’re listed all over this forum. What they won’t remember is how many times John shot his mouth off on talking head shows over the years, deflating efforts that were just taking off. Many of those efforts were in support of good sound conservative principles. And John McCain acted as an agent of the democrat party killing these efforts so he could feel important.
I’m not going to go back and study every Reagan move from 25 years ago, to see if it was reasoned or not, so John McCain can feed his ego, or others can pretend that the donkey in the room is an elephant. And make no mistake about it, John McCain has proven over and over that he is a donkey. President Reagan proved over and over again that he was a great man, truly had a moral compas, and cared more for the people of our nation and others across the global landscape than Captain Queeg McCain ever will.
Don’t stoop to this. McCain simply isn’t worth it.
I would be surprised if he did any better than Goldwater in 1964.
His thrashing will be for entirely different reasons than Goldwater’s of course.
There are ties to Corsi and he likes to imply that he was behind it but he never says it and others say there are no ties at all. That would make sense as he was never a Swift boat Vet. It looks to me like he is an opportunist trying to latch on to the Swiftvet's success. He is the originator of the Manchurian candidate theory that McCain is controled by the KGB. This is Twilight Zone stuff.
There’s a difference between a Republican and a Conservative. McCain is a Conservative. GWB is a republican.
All throughout freerepublic posters cry out for a Republican in the mold of Ronald Reagan. And we have that person in the name of John McCain.
While McCain doesn’t agree with today’s GOP Base, he matches up quite well with Ronald Reagan. To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, “I didn’t leave the republican party, the republican party left me.”
You’d never hear the current candidates ever say “Government is not a solution to our problem, government is the problem.”
In what ways do you think McCain is more authentically conservative than the GOP base?
In what ways has he - unlike your average Republican - stayed true to the Reagan legacy?
