I am still holding out hope that McCain gets replaced before the end of the convention (and not with Huckabee eitehr).

>>Their gas prices are far higher than ours.<<

Yep, their taxes are insane.... but that when they elected socialist they have to pay the piper.

They have a more sensible President now but he has a tremendous uphill battle.

It would’ve been great to defeat Hillary with a conservative. Now there is no point.

And no, McCain is NOT strong on defense.

Don’t worry. He’ll make another speech soon promising to drill in ANWR, and conservatives will be expected to believe him.

Obviously, you do not like McCain. I am not going to trash a POW. Were you with him?

"I am not going to trash a POW."

Being a POW gets him lifetime immunity from all criticism?

Being a POW doesn’t mean you are free from being as scrutinized as those that weren’t.

You sound like the liberals who said we couldn’t chastise Kerry because he served in Nam.

Very funny. Kerry was judged by men who served with him in combat and that is fair as hell. Any POW, who was with McCain would have the same credibility as the men who were with Kerry.

Let me tell you - many times I could not even see what the other lone USSF man with me did in a firefight. Other times, I could see what a man did. I damn sure could not judge a recon team on the ground while flying overhead with the FAC. FACT.

Agreed. But I have not heard a single POW who was with him ever trash him while he was a POW.
