Have GOP Voters forgotten that just a few months ago, John McCain stood hand-in-hand with liberal icon Ted Kennedy pushing for the largest amnesty for illegal aliens in American history? While Rasmussen polling showed that Americans following the legislation very closely opposed it 3 to 1 (69% to 23%), McCain ignored the massive public outcry!
The angry calls rolling into the Senate offices, including John McCain's, were between 50 and 100 to 1 against McCain and Kennedy's bill. We know this because we stood outside his door counting calls received by his staff and because other Senators told us the ratios they were receiving. History was made when the Capital phone system shut down, due to overload of calls from angry Americans.
John McCain refused to listen to Americans and went so far as to call members of the Senate who refused to support the McKennedy Amnesty "Racists"! John McCain showed no regard for American voices and instead called those who disagreed with him petty names. Who was John McCain listening to? He was listening to the US Chamber of Commerce and the racist illegal alien support groups like La Raza (The Race) whom he openly coordinated the effort with.
John McCain has illustrated in dramatic fashion that when he feels safe in his office, he couldn't care less about what a majority of Americans think.
Now, John McCain claims he is listening because he wants to be President in a few months. He says he will "Secure the Border First!" Even if you could trust John McCain, which you cannot, his border security pledge will be quickly reduced to irrelevance, if his desire for Amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens becomes a reality...

“McCain ignored the massive public outcry!”....just as he ignores the massive public outcry to his nomination!
Just in time for the mid-term elections!
Have at it boys!
I dont have a link, but wasn’t it mclame who said “its just a small group of loudmouths”? I will try to find that link....
Mitt McClintobama will give us more like 160 million new welfare chiseling illiterate voters.
Phyllis Schlafly told us all about the plan some time ago, but everyone had their sombrero’s shoved so far up Jorge the Mexican’s butt they couldn’t hear her, or they refused to believe the truth about their li’l darling Jorge and his pals.
Now, whomever you elect, you’ll get to be part of a greater Community, for which you will pay dearly.
Enjoy!
Hahahaha!!!
True. What will be destroyed is conservatism, which will become a permanent minority voice in America, as both parties pander to the instinctively socialistic new voting bloc. Since the Rats can easily out-pander and out-socialist the Republicans, they will reap the lion's share of this voting bloc.
He was running tons of I’m-just-like-Tancredo ads on radio here in California this morning.
McCain?? Good grief. Talk about self-delusion!!
McCain doesn’t know if he’s a Democrat or Republican. It is obvious that his attitude is one of: “Vote for me because I’m a Republican, but keep your mouth shut and let me steer you where I want.”
His statements following his amnesty disaster reflect this very well. It’s not that “HIS” position is wrong, it’s all those evil people out there that need to shut up and follow his lead. How dare they oppose him!?/sarc
McCain is not my choice, but he’ll do if that’s all we can get. For sure, he’ll be a one term President. His age as well as other factors will do him in.
I should add that what will then follow is the imposition of the fairness doctrine, the expansion of “hate speech” regulation, more government financing of political campaigns (left-wing kooks like Kucinich will never run out of money) and more restrictions on the freedom of the public to finance candidates and engage in political activities.
In other words, once they have the power the Rats will “fix” the system to put opponents at a permanent disadvantage.
When pressed to answer a question about illegal immigrants in his home state, Sen. McCain refuses to answer, while his supporters tell a woman who wants him to answer the question to shut up and she is thrown out of the town hall meeting. See the video here:
