“Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place, and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.”—Matthew 17:19-21.
Welcome to FR.
This article hits the nail on the head.
Now I wait in anticipation for all the ignorant “McLame”, “McNasty”, “McManiac” type posts.
Don’t know about a conspiracy. But there’s one thing for sure of all the flawed candidates we were/are forced to choose from he is the worst of all.
I don’t get it. Does this guy think we’re getting a good conservative in John McCain or does he just think we’re a bunch of idiots and it glad we’re getting what we deserve?
With any luck McCain will be the nominee. The result will be the call for a Conservative convention and the start of a legitimate third party movement that has a true ideoloogical base.
Government millionaires who are all on the political welfare system...
They all get government checks.
McCain as the GOP nominee gives Hillary! her best chance of winning. It’s as simple as that.
In this article, Emery builds an entire city of straw men.
Pathetic little article.
Whether it’s McInsane vs. Hitlery or McQueeg vs. Hussien Osama in the 2008 election, either way, the democRATS will have won.
This article completely misses the substance of why people are concerned about McCain. I fear that McCain would make a bad president. He opposed the Bush tax cuts and supported legislation that would require a supermajority in congress and the senate to reduce taxes. McCain-Kennedy was terrible legilation that would destroy our country in the future. He favors huge government subsidies for illegal aliens. He favors taxes to combat global warming that would add at least $.50-$1.00 to a gallon of gas and also tax electricity, etc. McCain would not allow the interrogation of terrorists. McCain has shown himself to be corrupt(Keating 5). McCain attacks business and private enterprise. McCain as president would let Democrats like Ted Kennedy control the agenda. People who are aware and concerned about these things are now being told to shut up.
If McCain takes the nomination, there will be absolutely no better time to go third party. That may guarantee th Dims a win, but it will give whiplash to the bigheads in the Republican Party that think they can dump the conservatives and pander to the muddled middle vote.
We fought amnesty; now, we fight the authors of amnesty.
Isn’t the Weekly Standard the house organ for the Teddy Kennedy Wing of the Republican Party?
“Actually, they have not done a thing beyond endorsing a four-term Republican senator with a lifetime 82 percent ACU rating”
What I would like to know is what is his ACU rating since 2000? I think McCain was a good conservative up until the South Carolina primary of 2000. Since then he has been on a mission to stick it to conservatives and George Bush. Perhaps a lot of these conservative stalwarts remember the John McCain of pre-2000. Since then has come all of his ridiculous positions such as McCain/Feingold.
If conservatives were polled and asked who they want as President none of those still running under the GOP ticket would make the top 10. This is another piece that misses the point. Conservatives want a conservative as President. What is so difficult to understand about that?
Revenge of AMNESATY man — business and political interest, Bush et al, think electing AMNESTY man is the path to eternal majority. Problem is, the handout crowd votes fascism Democrat. It’s in the South American blood, where they wouldn’t know what freedom is, nor what to do with it. See Venezuela and huge Chavez for references about fascism and government control of profits for their personal gain. Check out what the bread and circuses crowd have to eat daily.
it's not surprising that bob dole is perplexed by the resistance to mclame, afterall they're birds of a feather.
Nobody can deny that McCain talks to himself, that he voted against the Cornyn amendment, and that he is unable to control himself and goes into rages and shouts obscenities - he does not sound like somebody presidential.
