Ok I get it. You don't like McCain and neither do I. I think he is a Bob Dole like candidate something you have said before. But I have to take issue that there is not difference between the Democrats and McCain on the war.
To claim that OBAMA or Hildebeast (her thighness) would not pull the troops out of Iraq is just wishful thinking. You are giving them far too much credit. Don’t forget the primary symptom of liberal-itis is myopia (that and a bug in the bum). They don’t give a damn about the long term consequences ANY of their actions. Iraq can burn in hell for all they care. Besides, liberals only break promises to conservatives not to their own (I tried and worked so hard to find a way to provide a middle class tax cut, but I just don’t think we can do it at this time…). If the troops don’t come out el-quicko there will be hell to pay from the Kooks and the media. The tremors will make “no new taxes” seem like a tap on the shoulder. And these guys are the big fundraisers and not to be ignored. If they don’t draw down the troops they will be in the same soup as Pelosi and Reid at 14% approval.
The only reason they would keep troops in would be a lame attempt to claim victory for themselves. But to do that would undercut their objections for invading Iraq and would also validate President Bush’s efforts in the War on Terror. It would also heap a large credibility boost to the military for achieving this victory. That also would not play well with the base.
They hate the military, they want them defeated. They want Vietnam. They don’t care how many helicopters they see landing on rooftops evacuating American personnel. They want it made clear that American “hegemony” is over. They have already discredited the Intelligence Community. And given the Posse Comitatus Law, there will be no need for a military. Thats their “Mission Accomplished”.
You seem to think that the adult in them will come out. By definition Liberals are not adults!!! They cannot be trusted with serious matters of state in any aspect.
You’ve said all this yourself. Sorry Rush, on this matter I’m taking them at their word. You make up your own mind. I going to vote Romney in the PA primary, but come November, I am putting on my gas mask and going into the voting booth to vote for McLame.
BTW mega dittos

I heard an Obama ad the other day in which he specifically stated that he would bring the troops home in ‘08.
We have no choice. 1/2 a conservative is better than none at all especially since McCain is good on WOT and reduce taxes.
I posted a vanity when Rush said this, saying conservative hosts had "jumped the shark" and indeed they had. We had a plethora of "Hilary/Obama won't be so bad" comments that turned conservatism on its head.
Think folks, and Rush too, EVEN IF the demcrats were afraid to pul troops out of Iraq, what a disaster will be a foreign policy led by someone who hates the military, sees no role for America in the world, or as Obama says repeatedly, believes "terrorism is being used to scare voters".
Many conservative comentators should do the Ahole Monologues because that is where they had their heads when they said these things.
The liberals will kick away the dead allies, the dead Americans, the advance of our enemies, like it was so much dirt off their shoe. They could care less.
Although I think Rush was commenting on their most recent positions...Thus my post.
Yes.
And having done it, with pride, they'll try to make it seem like it is the dawn of another, better day.
Lived and served through it once. Never again. It wasn't a better day.
Took us until the Reagan Renaissance to set things right. Now, so many want to seemingly capitulate without a fight.
There's no either this or that involved.
FReepers need to keep their focus on the prize. Elect McCain, AND work diligently to elect a Conservative Congress.
McCain doesn't work out?
Replace him in 2012.
